Hair-volution : Rihanna

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Rihanna changes her hairstyle more in one season than most of us probably will in a lifetime. The chameleon of haircuts, Riri is never afraid to experiment with new and innovative styles, bold colours and edgy cuts. With her stunning looks, heart-shaped face and striking eyes, it's easy to see why almost every look suits her. She's had her hair cropped to the shortest span, curled, straightened, coloured & extended to long luscious lengths. If you're searching for your own hairstyle inspiration, this overview of Rihanna's Hair Evolution is a great place to start.</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;

This season, Pixie casts her own spell of quirkiness and enchantment to the range, with colourful rose-embedded wreaths, pearl and leatherette cat ears and oversized satin bows.</span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Here is a peek into the <i>Rock 'N Rose</i> garden of romantic floral fascinators, and more...</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Winter Hair Trends 2012

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Don't get stuck in a hair rut as the temperatures dive lower. This season, getting that straight-off-the-catwalk hair is easier than ever with a series of trend-driven hairstyles. All these ideas are effortlessly chic and simple enough to accomplish just with a handful of hair clips, hairspray and hair bands. This is your Fall/Winter 2012 runway-to-reality hairstyle inspiration.</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>Elegant Upstyles</b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilRKrP1bMBNTf0PO_KZtvY0QB693ZVFOpWBxLpNUkXk06Yp4dQpMyWZGbwDcn1psZ1tZ3J8_TWu1b3bfjORIAZ7V_JWToK7yrYAGSaUjHoaIE1EciqkZos8iDl6sC_N6gJB-UDFgw6B-40/s1600/fallhair.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilRKrP1bMBNTf0PO_KZtvY0QB693ZVFOpWBxLpNUkXk06Yp4dQpMyWZGbwDcn1psZ1tZ3J8_TWu1b3bfjORIAZ7V_JWToK7yrYAGSaUjHoaIE1EciqkZos8iDl6sC_N6gJB-UDFgw6B-40/s640/fallhair.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> Neatly folded French rolls, classic ballet buns, undone chignons - the upstyle takes center stage this season. To attain this timeless look, pull your hair into a ponytail with an elastic hair band, comb over to ensure there are no bumps, and twirl hair round into a coil with hair pins. Spray to hold. Leave a few loose ends as did the <i>Michael Kors</i> models or defy gravity with hair wax as seen at <i>Preen</i>. Take notes from <i>Cacharel</i> and add cute colourful clips or an embellished headband as styled at <i>Dolce & Gabbana</i>. The best way to combat a bad hair day, this ladylike look can be done on both wet or dry locks.</span></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>Twists and Braids</b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUcKtQ8vimeo0EF-o1nYHawA8ujNIJTQ8r70Hs-3SPMUdVWXSeAQ9CWPwsKOUOeJWBWR-_CL0UU8Ay3XqvRB8xQhSNwXVYyLdx_9cF0JNC5MCTmU2fXfx71bj76PdMNbc0lZ4VFm1Zv5dr/s1600/fallhair1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUcKtQ8vimeo0EF-o1nYHawA8ujNIJTQ8r70Hs-3SPMUdVWXSeAQ9CWPwsKOUOeJWBWR-_CL0UU8Ay3XqvRB8xQhSNwXVYyLdx_9cF0JNC5MCTmU2fXfx71bj76PdMNbc0lZ4VFm1Zv5dr/s640/fallhair1.jpg" width="618" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Put a twist into your daily hair routine with a few pretty braids.

Ponytails are worn high, low, perfectly in precision, or loosely fastened for a laid-back look. Secure your ponytail at the nape of your neck, leaving a strand loose to tie over and conceal your hairband. Smoothen down any flyways with some hairspray and <i>voila</i> - the polished ponytail will provide you with ultimate sophistication in under 3 minutes with no effort involved at all. </span></div><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>Bouffants</b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEip-cqxDx72Vl0xCmNhZ1b470Od1dHI_2Kcr0R95GBrPKIpt7GieVdXI3qUmAarulxHh_wzXd3c84NvekHCnQ5-9uCoIBrf56NUYcfWdTjyGTnMBXzyHtbKZqe6SWdl1umktuA6HBv5BJny/s1600/fallhair4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="534" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEip-cqxDx72Vl0xCmNhZ1b470Od1dHI_2Kcr0R95GBrPKIpt7GieVdXI3qUmAarulxHh_wzXd3c84NvekHCnQ5-9uCoIBrf56NUYcfWdTjyGTnMBXzyHtbKZqe6SWdl1umktuA6HBv5BJny/s640/fallhair4.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Pump up the volume with the elevated & dramatic bouffant, set to add glamour and height to your style.

A good shine serum and exceptionally brilliant hair iron is your ideal way to attain this not-a-hair-out-of-place hairstyle. Parting your hair in a middle part adds to the chicness of this look. Be bold and take it one step further with blunt bangs as seen on the <i>Marni</i> models and at <i>Elie Saab Couture</i>.</span></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>Loose Locks</b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyxWYc4CSfc_k5AsHnVY03e54ROWahAIGHrSqJ4IbWOKFQcr06P5nNoxBMkAEnlELodscxl0q5h7F2sH6000UsJPCZIUHWEybnAhGUEiSM5qJ5ehWvy2UkvVL3fx-WFawqCi9b1m3isyYq/s1600/fallhair6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyxWYc4CSfc_k5AsHnVY03e54ROWahAIGHrSqJ4IbWOKFQcr06P5nNoxBMkAEnlELodscxl0q5h7F2sH6000UsJPCZIUHWEybnAhGUEiSM5qJ5ehWvy2UkvVL3fx-WFawqCi9b1m3isyYq/s640/fallhair6.jpg" width="620" /></a></div><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;"><b><br /></b></span><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The get-out-of-bed-head look is the least complicated style to achieve this Fall. The focus is on tousled texture, unkempt waves & luscious looking locks. If you're lucky enough to have naturally wavy hair, allow your hair to air-dry, adding some mousse or salt spray, scrunching slightly. If you have straight hair, braid your hair in several sections while its still wet, allow to dry, spray & unwind your curls. Hot rollers or a hair iron can be used alternatively to get this sexy style. Glamourize the trend with a severe side part as seen at <i>Lanvin</i> or volumize by drying your hair upside gown with a hair dryer to achieve the <i>Just Cavalli</i> look. </span></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div><br /><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><i>Which of these Fall/Winter 2012 hair trends are you most likely to try out?</i></b></span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />

Hair-volution : Jessica Alba

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Jessica Alba may be widely known for her remarkable fashion sense, but it's her ever-changing hairstyles that don't get enough credit. She is never afraid to experiment with different cuts and colours; and incredibly, everything that she tries, suits her. Her beautiful skin tone compliments any new hue, and her angular face shape allows her to carry off any style. Jessica's had just about every type of cut, tint and length, which makes her perfect for hairstyle inspiration.</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">After 2 years of growing my hair out, I've decided to take the plunge and cut it off. Sometimes a new hairstyle is the best makeover, it can make you feel and look like a whole new person. I've already made the appointment, I just need to muster up the courage to get myself in the chair. In my quest for a new summer hairstyle, I've gathered the best of Jessica's cuts and colours over the years to help me make a decision.</span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b>Short to Medium Length</b></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgj9K5rJj8TaEhPnkaWRGuLZm0t5lX6im64-m7PdqCUET73HRkSFiv4H2_tivjeR-4DFTeIwSj7Izu5BCYqzDYGj_yW5qfXK8Fbbvkme2szANp6DyC6r0FHZwv_OT5hoZFmC8zsZMFIy7Z3/s1600/jessica1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgj9K5rJj8TaEhPnkaWRGuLZm0t5lX6im64-m7PdqCUET73HRkSFiv4H2_tivjeR-4DFTeIwSj7Izu5BCYqzDYGj_yW5qfXK8Fbbvkme2szANp6DyC6r0FHZwv_OT5hoZFmC8zsZMFIy7Z3/s640/jessica1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">1. An angled bob in dark brown with coppery highlights. It's cut slightly longer in the front and has a heavy, blunt fringe.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">2. A classic straight bob in a shimmery cinnamon shade, cut just below the jawline. It looks easy to accomplish, but I'm sure there is a lot of ironing involved to get it looking <i>this</i> sleek.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">3. Jessica went blonde with her much shorter, pin-straight bob. It's cut </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">just above the jawline, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">with jagged edges. I am not brave enough to go this length.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">4. Her blonde locks are styled into windswept waves, thanks to a round brush and good hairdryer. This style perfectly shows off her stunning bone structure.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">5. A </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">mid-length, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">tousled look in ombré chocolate-to-chestnut brown. Slight layering through the ends enhance her loose waves.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">6. A shoulder-length hairstyle thats feathered in the front. She added a multitude of bronze and brown highlights.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b>Long Length</b></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAvJr5MIO9NNtJCyGwUdbdoYK6-JVStOKn9EP5B99fy1sQI4_qXRQ8QY9Oth1iEOwAC7FsItIv0qaYQkxCekLA1Y2NsZbTSTSidqT1946TWxPySfp0IvIeXxTbwH-HbB9Ta1Y4qjA8EYAh/s1600/jessica2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAvJr5MIO9NNtJCyGwUdbdoYK6-JVStOKn9EP5B99fy1sQI4_qXRQ8QY9Oth1iEOwAC7FsItIv0qaYQkxCekLA1Y2NsZbTSTSidqT1946TWxPySfp0IvIeXxTbwH-HbB9Ta1Y4qjA8EYAh/s640/jessica2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">1. Jessica wears her sultry long brown tresses to the side. This is the length my hair is at the moment. So you can imagine how hard it would be to cut it off.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">2. This was when Jessica went platinum blonde for her role in <i>Fantastic 4</i>. Her bouncy cut with asymmetrical fringe includes lots of layers, which probably means lots of work.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">3. This is one of Jessica's most-loved and copied styles. Her glossy locks have been slightly layered from the mid-lengths to create soft waves with volume and movement.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Honey highlights makes her hair look that more radiant.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">4. Simple, smooth and straight. With a</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> few layers around the jawline and caramel highlights. It would be the easiest to style and wear.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">5. Jess tinted her hair a rich reddish auburn colour and added a fringe.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">6. As gorgeous as this is, it seems the most difficult to style. Jessica opted for a golden brown mane with sunkissed highlights. The colour brightens up her face. Plenty of layers create defined curls that add texture and body. </span></div><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I've deliberated over these styles many times...and finally decided on the very first one. Without the blunt fringe. Choosing this bob would mean cutting 20cm/8 inches off my current length. It </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>is</i></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> a lot, but then that's the great thing about hair, no matter how many times you cut it...it will always grow back. Which of Jessica's styles would you wear?</span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span>

The Savvy Girl's Guide To A Fishtail Braid

<span id="goog_1835172765"></span><span id="goog_1835172766"></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The hottest hairstyle for this summer is the fishtail braid, as seen on numerous stars, runways and magazines. The fishtail braid is a more complex take on the regular braid that we all wore to mask those school day hair blues. It may seem daunting to try out at first, but according to blogger Akanksha Chawla from <a href="http://fictitious-fashion.blogspot.com/">Fictitious Fashion</a>, it's as easy as pie. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">After seeing Akanksha wear a fishtail braid on her blog, I asked her to do a guest post on how to recreate the look. She's written a step-by-step guide, along with corresponding photographs - which makes this hairstyle easy enough for anyone to achieve.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b>How to Create a Fishtail Braid</b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><br /></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifrvgMbFcOT0IBKzGetDb_4NwJ-ll7DIez35Xp3FOe0Jy_0Dd6KtRuN7alznFr0cx8TXCRQar5aC9lboend6J1UiVsFJjH5seOfxAs0UGbyMUDDHoYj1lATMYl0bS2fPFVbFxXsJZ1NqMr/s1600/fishtail+.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="452" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifrvgMbFcOT0IBKzGetDb_4NwJ-ll7DIez35Xp3FOe0Jy_0Dd6KtRuN7alznFr0cx8TXCRQar5aC9lboend6J1UiVsFJjH5seOfxAs0UGbyMUDDHoYj1lATMYl0bS2fPFVbFxXsJZ1NqMr/s640/fishtail+.jpg" width="640" /></a><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>In the Words of Akanksha:</b></span><br /><br /><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A Warm Welcome to Everyone. I wanted to share my favourite hairstyle, the fishtail braid.</span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /><b>Step 1.</b> If you’re doing it yourself then I’d suggest making a side braid or one at the back. Tie up all of your hair to the side with the help of any rubber band.<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>Step 2.</b> Divide your hair into two sections. Hold each piece separately. <br /><br /><br /><br /><b>Step 3.</b> This step is very important - Take a <u>thin bunch</u> of hair (see picture) from the end of one of the divided sections. <br /><br /><br /><br /><b>Step 4. </b>Take the thin bunch over to the other half of the hair, making a cross. Hold it tightly. <br /><br /><br /><br /><b>Step 5.</b> Now, take a thin bunch of hair from the <u>second</u> half of your hair.</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Step 6.</b> Take this second thin bunch over to the first half of hair, making a cross.  (This is the equivalent of pulling smaller strands from outside the larger sections, and drawing them into the center).<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>Step 7.</b> You should get your first Fishtail.<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>Step 8.</b> Repeat steps 3-6 until you get to the the end of your hair. Secure with a  hairband.<br /><br /><br /><br /><b><u>Akanksha's Tips:</u></b></span><br /><br /><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">*You could spray gel onto your hair for a solid and sophisticated look.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">*My hair is a little silky and cut in layers so you would see tiny hair hopping around. Not to worry, long hair wouldn't have an issue.<br /><br />*Remember to make this hairstyle your own by adding beads, colourful rubber bands, tic-tacs, etc.<br /><br /><br /><br />Feel free to ask her any questions on <a href="http://fictitious-fashion.blogspot.com/">http://fictitious-fashion.blogspot.com/</a> <br /><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Special thanks to the very sweet Akanksha for sharing this tutorial and tips with us.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Celeb Inspired Looks</span></b></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: xx-small;"><b><br /><br /></b></span></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now that you have learnt to do the simple side swept fishtail braid, you can move on to more intricate braided styles, as shown off by these celebrities.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkP3qdeena0gAJDb4875igFI7tp4s6oAGArTRPCg7VIuAnJr-kPoe0y2_k7kMwHPPOxFNOXLU_3pVU7Nec8Ri2-DOKGeUZPGwWRFxZ_rdyBgV84RJ3sr3TmK0EqhPtpX255TlK2GhToBsZ/s1600/Blog2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkP3qdeena0gAJDb4875igFI7tp4s6oAGArTRPCg7VIuAnJr-kPoe0y2_k7kMwHPPOxFNOXLU_3pVU7Nec8Ri2-DOKGeUZPGwWRFxZ_rdyBgV84RJ3sr3TmK0EqhPtpX255TlK2GhToBsZ/s640/Blog2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Top Row</b></span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>Kim Kardashian</i> lets a few strands hang loose from her braid and wears a side-swept fringe.</span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Wear a blunt fringe and tie a ribbon around your elastic hairband like <i>Bella Thorne</i>.</span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>Hilary Duff</i> used thin strips of black leather to style her fishtail braid.</span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>Ashley Tisdale</i> added some volume to her look by teasing the front of her hair.</span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Center-part your hair, make two separate French braids then pin them up like <i>Sarah Michelle Gellar.</i></span><br /><br /><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Bottom Row</b></span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>Blake Lively's</i> version of an unkempt fishtail braid.

An extra large share at that too.</span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQ0Ysg-ldg8bvpGdToN2RWftVCg9CjyTJX8kLtqyTeCpk76OsLvdEnhf3T3Kz9ROnqRLnRtbfybpuMvgLASrOn5QMQUS3GjKd-W7OSESmN-WF20FvOIY8-kke9o-cOf7mSqUVU5Kp1l_Q/s1600/Kim+Kardashian+covergirl.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="568" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQ0Ysg-ldg8bvpGdToN2RWftVCg9CjyTJX8kLtqyTeCpk76OsLvdEnhf3T3Kz9ROnqRLnRtbfybpuMvgLASrOn5QMQUS3GjKd-W7OSESmN-WF20FvOIY8-kke9o-cOf7mSqUVU5Kp1l_Q/s640/Kim+Kardashian+covergirl.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">'Cleopatra</span></i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;"> with a K</span>' - Kim befittingly plays the the part of Egyptian Queen, with dramatic fringed bob, kohl-lined cat-eyes and ornate hairpieces.

I needed a trim. Any sane person would have waited for the next morning to call their hairstylist and make an appointment for this. Not me. I couldn't wait that long. The 'bee in a bonnet' in me wanted it cut right then. So, I wet my hair, and stared apprehensively into a badly lit mirror with a pair of scissors; which I am sure was <i>not</i> appropriate for cutting hair. I hesitated for a few minutes, thinking, "Should I, shouldn't I?" My impulsive nature got the better of me and...Snip! Uh oh - I <i>really</i> shouldn't have.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">After the first cut, I found out that the scissors was so blunt, it couldn't even cut paper. But by then I had already chopped off the right half my once-wonderful hair. I had no choice but to finish off the dreadful mess I so stupidly started. When I was done trimming my entire fringe, I didn't have to dry it to see that it was far too short. Like sticking-out-in-the-middle-of-my-forehead-like-a-cockatoo short. And crooked. As I said before 'Any sane person would've went to a hairdresser....'</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So for next time, <i>if</i> there is a next time, I asked an expert about the 'proper' method of cutting your own fringe. Ideally, it should be done by a professional, but if you are courageous (or crazy) enough to undertake such a mission, here are a few simple steps to guide you.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">How to cut your own fringe</span></span></b></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><b><br /><br /></b></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWPWT5L5rkRsiijfkYvBRR2Di6UolVaH8Lj-8-tnMdXyKK1jGjQy7WMdA1N0vIO0IZpxot0zoPjKxAaDao1zV5iBBjPbF2id2RZk38OCvG6U3HgZ0G0zqi-5Wg0V2z89U3ZqX69SAwrPs/s1600/cut+fringe+.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWPWT5L5rkRsiijfkYvBRR2Di6UolVaH8Lj-8-tnMdXyKK1jGjQy7WMdA1N0vIO0IZpxot0zoPjKxAaDao1zV5iBBjPbF2id2RZk38OCvG6U3HgZ0G0zqi-5Wg0V2z89U3ZqX69SAwrPs/s1600/cut+fringe+.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small; font-weight: normal;"><br /><br /></span></span></b></span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0;">You will need:</span></b></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><br /><br /></b></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A sharp scissors made especially for cutting hair</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A styling comb</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A brightly lit mirror</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A steady hand</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Some nerve</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><br /><br /></b></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0;">Step One:</span> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal;">Always start with dry, straightened hair.
