Hot Hair trends: Summer style #2

Thursday, May 7th, 2009

Get the look: To get a full pony like the one above, throw in some hot rollers to dry hair, and let sit while you finish your makeup. Release rollers, dust with hair spray and brush lightly to loosen curls and create silky fullness. Take a large section of hair, wrap it around your hair elastic to cover it and pin in place. Voila.

Time saver: If you’re in a pinch, pick up a hair extension and clip in as instructed (make sure color matches your hair). Cover elastic as before. Curl ends of ponytail with curling iron to match the hair piece.

Hot Hair style Trend: Boho #3

Wednesday, May 6th, 2009

Get the look: Get playful curls like Goodwin’s by wrapping hair around a curling iron, not clamping it in. (Envision wrapping a piece of your hair around a stick and holding it there)  Then finger-comb to further loosen and lightly tease hair around the crown of your head for a little volume. Then twist and pin back sides of your hair with bobby pins.

Optional: Instead of twisting, braid it. If you want to glam it up, weave some rhinestones accessories into the braid.

Grab one of the last few, this jacket is just plain adorable.

My style:

I would pair this jacket witha floaty summer dress, perhaps in a small floral print and complete the look with metallic or jeweled sandals. Throw in a canvas or leather shoulder bag and voila- classic L.A. style.
