Joining the forces- UP do hair ideas
I'm joining the armed forces. I'm excited and everything is going very well. But that also means no more red lipstick, red nail polish or pretty flowing 40's and 50's inspired hair. I'll have to wear my hair up and I am trying to find pictures of pretty vintage inspired up-dos. I found this... -
Asprin facial mask (im so dumb!)
Chemicals like salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide work in a preventative fashion so you have to use them regularly and for a long time before they work. Clean and Clear has a new line of products (Continuous Control) containing 5% (maximum non-prescription) benzoyl peroxide which is the... -
Nobody talks about rag curls?
From my experience and from reading these forums I think everyone's hair, patience, and agility varies. You just have to find what works for you and your hair. If you want to try a new method: purchase/make a small quantity of the roller/curler and put just a few in your hair to see how they... -
How do I do reverse rolls, victory rolls and a gibson roll?
Hey Clara, I like the CREW stuff because when I heat style my hair, and then apply the pomade, my hair doesn't go flat. But when I apply the pomade and THEN heat style my hair gets dry and frizzy, like if there was nothing in it. I just use it after styling for finishing touches; sometimes I... -

help needed with big model shoot
Hey Lauren, I've achieved a similar look using regular hot rollers (the bigger ones). I set my hair in the hot rollers and then brush, brush and brush. When you like it, STOP brushing. It will only get flatter and keep changing. Apply a bit of shine serum and hairspray. I love doing this... -

Bonnet dryer or hot rollers? Nashoba- Your new hair color looks great; it complements your skin tone very well and that's always the hardest to achieve. You may find your hair responds differently to styling now. You may need hotter or colder rollers or more or less setting lotion, nothing... -
As if we didn't chat about pin curls enough. . .
I've been using the handle of an old makeup brush. I roll my hair around it, like I would with a regular curler. But then I slide the curl off and pin it. You could probably use a cold curling iron too. There is actually a picture on this site that looks similar to what I have been doing... -
As if we didn't chat about pin curls enough. . .
Barrel curls anyone? I tried to do pin curls and I could never get the hang of it. So I made some rag curlers and those made my hair super frizzy. So then I bought some brush rollers, and those pulled out my hair and were uncomfortable to sleep in. So I got some sponge rollers but my curls... -
