Its been too long....

A sunny June Wednesday and I have weddings on my mind. So many beautiful people getting married soon and it always makes me so happy. Call me a dork but i love making brides look fabulous the day of there wedding. Brings me back to when i got married and how fabulous i felt. Any who the sun is out so make sure to spray a little uv ray protector in your hair so your hair stays looking shinny.....

2010 a beginning to a New Year

Hello all my beautiful people. Hope you all had a great holiday and fun memories. 2010 is here and we need to make sure we keep up with our hair during these rough economy times. If you are coloring your hair please make sure to use color treated shampoo and conditioner and a good leave in product. The weather right now tends to make the scalp really dry making the hair look dull. Redken color shampoo is a good one which i been using. I look forward to any comments.

It's Friday woo hoo

Happy friday to you all. I know the weather is so off but what ever you do don't put a hat on! A girls hair has to look fabulous. Quick tip so the hair doesn't frizz up when you go out for drinks tonight add a little of Nutri-Sculpt Lumiere by Kerastase. This helps seal the ends of your hair giving a great shine and helps with maintaine the frizz.

Have a great weekend!

Makeup by Joanna Jaramillo

The colors that she chose for my look was amazing. She really knows how to capture any look weather it is for Halloween, a wedding or just a special event.

simple but cute

Hi all hope everyone had a great Halloween. I really went all out on my costume i was a very cute peacock it was fabulous! I really out did last years for sure. The costume was fun and colorful. So i kept my hair in a simple pony tail but with some nice volume in the front. Didn't want to take away from my costume and make up. This style can be worn when you are in need of something easy but sexy. Just add some dazzle to your eyes and a great pair of earrings.


Have a great day and hope all my tips help.

Shout out to Joanna Jaramillo which did my make up she is an amazing makeup artist.

Kardashian Style

Going out and need a nice full volume hair style? I call this my Kardashian 'Do. This style is great the for Friday night but it also holds well for Saturday Night. All you need to do is tease it and add extra hair spray and you're good to go.

1. Grab a strand of hair. Curl the strand in place for 10 seconds. Slowly releasing the curl.

2. Grab the strand, keep the curl in place by pinning with hair pin.

3. Repeat, the steps. This is how the process should look.
4. Then shake out the curls, run your fingers through it and spray with hair spray.

Simple Updo's

Simple updo's are easy and should take no longer then 20 minutes.
Whether it be a bun with a fashionable braid:

a younger version french twist:

or something fun rather then a typical braid:
