A little tribute to Snookie

Hey everyone, as promised, here’s the post on how to tease your hair.

 

1.  You will need a teasing comb and a brush.

2.  Texturizing powder is optional but I highly recommend it.  This is my favorite one and it works well with all hair types.

3.  Apply texturizing powder to roots.  Remember to “sprinkle” the powder on versus dumping it all over.  Skip this step if you don’t have any texturizing powder.

4.  Pull hair straight up (about 1″ sections) and slide the teasing comb down to your roots.  Repeat a few times with every section until you build a “base”.  You can start your sections from the front or back, I prefer to start from the back of my head.

5.  Your hair should look a little something like this when you are done teasing your sections.
6.  Lightly run the brush over the top to smooth the outer layer of the hair.
7.  Push the poof up a little bit and pin the hair as desired. Hair spray and voila!
You can make your poof as big or as little as you want by controlling how much of a “base” you create.  Hope this helps.  Feel free to email or comment if you have any questions.

Anna

Liya Kebede

25 Jun

…is my favorite supermodel.  I think she is one of the most beautiful human beings inside and out.  If I could look like anyone in the world it would be Liya Kebede.  She has been featured on the cover of American Vogue at least twice, is the first woman of color to represent Estee Lauder Cosmetics and is also a Goodwill Ambassador for theWorld Health Organization.  Liya is also the founder of the Liya Kebede Foundation.  The foundation is dedicated to helping and saving lives of mothers and children around the world. I can only hope to meet her one day, she is such an inspiration to me.

Who do you find beautiful and who inspires you?

XO,
