What Makeup University Got For Christmas and a product introduction

Hi ya Gorgeous!
Woo hoo! How was your Christmas celebration? I hope you had an amazing time and are enjoying the celebration of lights with Hanukkah too!

Today I have a video for you, demonstrating what Makeup University received for Christmas.

Enjoy and then stay tuned after the video at the bottom of this post for the Mixed Chicks product introduction!




Now, for some Mixed Chicks! I love this brand and hwat a service they do for ladies with curly hair! Or wavy hair! Or unruly hair!

These products are explained in the video - but let me just do a lil recap for you!

The Styling gel, is light and strong, and in my opinion perfect for the short hairstyle or men.
The Co-Wash is a deep conditioning cleanser with an amazing natural scent and has no lather. This product is perfect for everyone but me and my fine limp hair. I still am healing my hair through thyroid issues, so I am keeping this product for a once a week wash and using my iRestore hair growth shampoo the other 2 times a week I wash.
The Curl Sculptor is perfect for the curly q, super tight curl and those with a wave that needs more help to bend. I really like this product. Before my hair succumbed to thyroid issues, this would be a twice a week styler for me!
The Daily Hair Dress is amazing and you need it right now. Even if you do not have curly or mixed hair, you need this for the hydration, sheen and style capability. I love it and it will be traveling with me to Las Vegas in January for all of the events I am at.  Some may not realize that Las Vegas Nevada is considered high desert. So it is very, very dry and in the winter, magnetize that by 100% due to the heat in the buildings. Just expect super dry skin and hair and pack this Mixed Chicks Daily Hair Dress with you for keeping things fresh and dewy looking! If you are wondering, yes, in a pinch, you could double this as a hand lotion or body moisturizer due to it's superior ingredients.

Don't take my word for it. Get some of your own at MixedChicks.net or Walmart today!

How to wear the popular top knot hairstyle

Hi ya Gorgeous!

It's finally below 100 degrees in Arizona and my fingers are crossed for a fast track to winter weather and boot season!

With the arrival of the chilly weather, we can now look forward to some of our favorite trends like dark nail polish, warm boots and chic top knots! We all have those days when we want to just throw our hair up in a knot and get out the door! Here are some great tips to keep your knotted bun to last on a cold and windy winter day.

 

Ultimate Top Knot

·         Want a quick, on-trend look in minutes? Take a brush and comb out any tangles, following up with a tight pony right at the top of your head.

·         Then, grab pony tail and twist tightly. Wrap around until hair is in a bun shape and tuck in ends into your hair tie.

·         Polish your knot with LA Looks Mega Mega Hold gel to keep hair in place. Also apply some product to any flyaway around your top knot.

o   Helps mold hair and offers long-lasting shape and definition with an ultimate hold and flexible control

o   SRP: $2.99

 

Sleek Low Knot

·         Off to a business meeting and want to look chic and sharp? Pull hair into a tight low side pony. Wrap hair around the hair tie and tuck in any loose pieces.

How to Diffuse Curly Hair -- the Right Way

Follow this step-by-step guide to get frizz-free, defined curls

Curly hair guru Ouidad shares the exact steps you should follow to get gorgeous curls. She covers the products to use, the temperature of the blow dryer and even exactly what to do with your hands. Pretty sweet, huh? See guide

Hello Gorgeous!
For my friends, family and fans who have been following the blog for the past three years, you know that I have gone through numerous hair stylists and hair styles and what I've got now has been the trial and error process.

Though, I am happy to say, I have officially visited the same stylist twice now and the results are worth going back a third time. True: I have a wee snippy clippy of my ends and that's it because my hair is still in the healing process. (Thank God it's out of the deliverance stage!)

Since today is February 1st, and marks the month of "love" for retail and service providers alike so I figured it's time to get some product giveaways going and coupons for services that will help you look and feel your best.

I can honestly recommend Star Flores at Tempe Market Place Arizona Hair co.
(480-967-2244) and if you visit the website, there is a link for money off on hair cuts for everyone and also for color/perms. http://www.azhairco.com


I'll be going to see Star this month for a snippy and look forward to seeing you there too!
