tbd: hair picks

let this be a testament.

Let this post be a testament to all girls out there who know for a fact that they just simply cannot style their own hair. I for one know that I am among you ladies. On the other hand, there is good news. The Beauty Department is here to save us all from boring, crappy hair. Even I can do these, so I know that anyone else can.


I am so glad to have finally found a loophole for having bangs without having to cut your hair... Aside from using extensions.

Although I usually like to keep my bangs pulled away from my face, I really love this look. There are so many different ways to stylize a braid like this.

I have accumulated so many hair bows now, I need to stop. Luckily, this style called for a bow, so here it is. Instead of placing the bow more towards the nape of my neck, I placed it right on the back of my head. With a little teasing, plus some strategically placed strands, I can pull of this look while keeping volume on the back of my head. And yes, I know that my bangs are really long and not at all Audrey Hepburn.

With this style I made a few alterations here and there. Like in hairstyle#2 (a.k.a "top sider"), I always do my best to keep the hair on the back of my head from going flat. So in this style I put the twists on top of my head, rather than on the back. That way, the short curls left after the twists do well to make some volume towards the back.
