Messin' Around

Here's a fun style to do this season. The messy bun is easy to do when you have slept in or are just wanting your hair off your neck. It is rather simple to do and there are lots of different looks to it.


You first start off with a pony tail, you decided whether you want it on either side low, a low center ponytail. Now you can either pull your pony tail all the way through or just half way. This preference will probably determine on how thick or thin or hair is.

Then grab your bobby pins and start taking random pieces. When you take your pieces let them be loose and pin away. For the easiest bun is probably pulling your ponytail half way through and then taking some pieces and twisting them around your pony. The first time you will be figuring out what you like, but I promise you will love it.

You can either dress it up with a flower or other hair piece in your hair. Or dress it down by pulling out some pieces by the front of your ears. Have fun with this and see what works for you. Be adventurous this season by trying something new.

Lash Envy

Long gorgeous lashes, I believe we all want. Sometimes though it gets frustrating trying to keep them in their tip top shape. Have you ever thought of what you need to be doing to do to keep your lashes healthy? 


Well, for about six or so months now I have been using a lash conditioner for mine. Using a conditioner for your lashes will help them so they won't fall out as much. I have also noticed that they have gotten longer as well as strong. The lash conditioner I use is from Jane Iredale Make up, which I love. It comes just like your mascara, and you apply it just the same too. I would say that there is no need to re-dip the wand, just take it out and apply it to the top lashes then the bottoms.

Some other helpful tips for your lashes is to make sure your not rubbing your eyes. I mean, I do it but it's not a good thing to do for your lashes. If you have to rub be gentle, especially when taking off make up. Rubbing roughly can cause them to fall out more.

Another tip is remove your eye make up at night!
I know some people who don't remove their eye make up before going to bed. This is so bad for your skin and lashes. If you remove it and wash your face before crawling into bed not only will you feel better but your lashes and skin will thank you. Make sure you get all of your make up off too.

Did you know that leaving your mascara on or any make up through out the night will cause you to age more? I know we all want to avoid that as much as possible. Removing your mascara at night is just another way to help your lashes from falling out. If you have a problem getting all your make up off it might be time to try a new way of removing your make up. Jane Iredale has a mitt that will take off all make up even mascara. It is gentle on your eyes and skin, and all you do is wash off the make up when done. This will save you money and help you to become more earth friendly.

Take care of your lashes ladies, and let me know if you took some of my advice and how you liked it.

Thanks

An Extra Boost


If you have fine hair that has a hard time to get it to have body in it. I have found a product that I just love, and you must try if your wanting that extra volume in your hair.



Pureology has had a new "series" of products out called Color Stylist. The Silk Bodifier really helps with putting extra body in your hair. It's like a mouse but it's not the real sticky feeling like most of them are. Just put it in when your hair is wet. Depending how much hair you have is how much you use, but don't use to much. For myself I probably use the size of a plum or so. When applying start at your roots then run it through to your ends. I love the smell and when you blow dry, dry your roots first.


You will love it, I have been using it for just over a week now and I am addicted this new product. You can come in and get it at Me Salon, tell them that you heard it from me.

Good for the Soul

My life has been crazy lately. I'm always running everywhere, and hardly ever home. I did make time for myself yesterday though, and took some advice off of my own blog. I am now a blond again and I love it!


It is so what I needed to feel refreshed and to have more of a "uff" in my life. I get excited to do my hair and see how the hair color looks with different styles. Oh, and I also got some longer bangs. I use to have straight across bangs three years ago and I have been growing them out since. It was nice to play around with a style where I didn't have to worry about bangs. But I do love the funness of having bangs again. I kept then longer so I can still pin them back if I want to. The shortest piece probably hits me at the tip of my nose.



I just wanted to tell you all of how much fun I have been having with my new hair. I did a settle change with my bangs and color. My hair color is the color melting where I have a light brown on top then melts down into a light golden blond. This goes to show you how a little change can be good for the soul.
