Effortless Holiday Hair

New Year's Eve is right around the corner and most women are on the hunt for their holiday hair.  This season buns have been very popular in all shapes and sizes. If you're looking for a sassy do that does not require much fuss, try a bun. Kourtney Kardashian has been spotted sporting this look quite often. If you're looking to put a spin on the traditional bun try adding a braid or twist like La La Anthony did for VH1's Divas.

Curly Girls

Want to get Beyonce and Taylor Swift's curls?
Check out these tips:

 Lightly mist hair with a styling spray (I recommend Sebastian Shaper), wrap sections of   hair around curling wand.  YES, IT'S THAT EASY!

For Taylor's look : little or no styling is required after hair is curled.

To achieve Beyonce's wave: after curls have cooled, brush hair with a paddle brush to soften the look.


Tip: You don't have to spend a ton on an expensive wand. Try the Remington Pearl Curling Wand for only $24.99 or use your very curling iron at home.

Winter Hair Care Tips

 It's that time of year that most women dread. The dry and cold winter can be very damaging to your hair. Hair easily becomes dry during this time of year from the dry indoor heating and the dry cold weather outside. Proper preventative steps need to be taken during this seasons to ensure that your hair does not get damaged.

• If wearing a wool coat be sure to line your collar with a silk or satin scarf to minimize friction that often causes breakage.

• Be sure to use moisturizing shampoos and conditioners to help replenish the hair. Sulfate free shampoos are ideal for this because they are less harsh and do not strip the hair like traditional shampoos.

• Adding a hot oil treatment to your routine during this season can also be beneficial in helping to keep hair moisturized.

• If you're not already using one be sure to add a leave in conditioner to your routine but select one that won't weigh your hair down or leave a build up behind. One of my personal favorites is It's a 10 Leave -In Conditioner.
