Ready for Monday ...

Woah, I can't believe how fast the weekend went by. I said on Friday that I'd post sometime over the weekend and the next thing I know it's Sunday night and I'm 3 blog posts behind. Time flies when your hair is having fun. :)

Day Douze
Preppy Prepster
Products Used: Moroccanoil Luminous Hairspray
Tools Used: Round Brush + Dryer + Flat Iron (Optional) + Teasing Brush + Bow Headband
How-To: After blowing out your hair straight (see The Classic),
use teasing brush to tease hair at the crown and down to ears.
Use teasing brush to soothe down tease.
Place headband into place.
Putting headband in will create more height to what you
have teased. Soothe down with teasing brush to desired height.
Finish with Moroccanoil Luminous Hairspray.

I loved this hairstyle!
I felt so flirty, preppy, cute! (and oh-so humble.)

Day 12 brought wonderful news. Last month, I went in for an audition with Wella to become a Color Educator Training Specialist-- which means I would get the opportunity to go teach color trends and techniques in different salons. I would get to travel to the Wella studios in NYC & LA to train. And on Friday, I got the call saying that I got the job! *high five, down low* I will still be at the salon full-time but at the same time have this opportunity to learn & grow in my career. So the fun hairstyle definitely made the day so much better! I'll be sure to update about the job. :)

Last summer, I shaved a bit from the left of my hair. I was feeling very adventurous and wanted something fabulous and edgy ...

It was always one of my favorite hair styles, and I've contemplated on shaving the side again. Thoughts?

Rain rain go away ... what a crappy Sunday ...

With the rain, I wanted to do a hairstyle that didn't require
much styling and would be rain proof.

So my sweetheart braid looks NOTHING like HDOF. (It didn't even look like a heart.) My layers are so short that braiding my hair into 2 hairs was a challenge itself. After I followed the steps, I ended up with a twisty- half updo. Hey, I thought it was cute ...

I have tons planned for the blog this upcoming week ... Stay posted! Have any questions or something you'd like to see blogged about? I'd love to hear your ideas!
