Hair!

Hi every one! How ya doin'? Today I figured we would talk about hair. Lots of people don't know what color to dye their hair, or how to do their hair or even what to put in their hair!

Coloring Your Hair
When you color your hair, it's always best to go to a hair salon to get it done. Dying your hair from a box can damage your hair REALLY badly. And most of the time when it comes from a box it A) Is the wrong color for you and/or B) It doesn't turn out the color from the box (Brown comes out purple, black comes out blue, etc.) So I highly recommend going to a hair salon!

The best way to decide on a hair color is to go with something similar to what your natural color is and go gradually darker or lighter as time goes on. That will make it easier to find a color that you like; instead of just getting what you think you like and then it turns out that you don't like it after all.

If you don't want to completely change your look and you just want to spruce it up a little, highlighting your hair is amazing! It's also a really good option for younger girls who want to look slightly older but don't necessarily want to dye it.

Hope this helped with the process of dying your hair!

Hair Styles

Hair styles are another example of self expression, everyone likes doing something different. Here are some great ideas for easy hairstyles!

2nd Day Hair: If your hair doesn't look so great the second day but you don't have time to wash it, here are some hairstyles to help save your day! The easiest style is definitely the ponytail. You can also spice it up by braiding part of your hair and then pulling it back along the side of your head and incorporating it into your ponytail. Another great style is the braid, there are so many different kinds (Some easier than others) and they are all guaranteed to make a greasy hair day, so much better!

Wet hair: You have to leave like right now and your hair is still wet! What to do, what to do. Here are some great ideas! First: The lazy bun. It's just like a ponytail except that on the last tug through the rubber band, don't pull it all the way through. The next option is the braid again. The other option that I recommend is the classic bun. The classic bun is something that is very hard to accomplish. But I have found the ultimate save for your classic bun! It's called the doughnut, you'll see why. Here's the link to purchase your very own! http://www.claires.com/store/goods/Tweens/cat1170028/Dance-Teams/p23013/Oversized-Hair-Donut/

Uncooperative Hair: Sometimes it's best on these kinds of days just to throw your hair up

Wanting to try something different: Most people think that it's silly to use a straightener on straight hair, or a curly on curly hair or a crimper on wavy hair. But it's not! For the people with straight hair, using a straightener will make your hair look glossy and fuller. For people with curly hair, using a curler will define your curls and make them look like you spent hours shaping them. For people with wavy hair, using a crimper will add definition to your waves!

Hair Accessories
I know that I say that a lot of stuff is about self expression, but they are! This growing list includes hair accessories. Some people like classic headbands or little clips, while others like flashy and sparkly. The hair accessory makes the outfit! Here are some examples of hair accessories that I love!
