Check out Rachel McAdams new bold bangs–do you love them?

The Girls in the BSW Beauty Dept. — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 01:02:26 +0000

At the Los Angeles premiere of The Vow, Rachel McAdams experimented with a brand new look: Thick, eyelash-grazing bangs. “They were a fun change,” hairstylist Mark Townsend told us. “We were inspired by an old Kate Moss photograph.

Rachel has done wispy bangs and side bangs. We thought a full fringe could make a fresh statement.” Townsend went on to say that because McAdams’s has an oval-shaped face, nearly any style bang would work on her. They’re also a flattering look for someone with a high forehead or a heart-shaped face.

Julianna Marguiles’s hair and makeup look created with L’Oreal Paris–get the look here

Cindy Bokma — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 23:47:46 +0000

Julianna Marguiles was positively beautiful at last nights SAG awards! Makeup artist Kristopher Buckle, and hairstylist, Matthew Monzon, share their tips on how to copy Julianna’s look! I’m a huge fan of L’Oreal Paris products, especially the lip glosses and mascaras.

HAIR/ Step by Step How-To:

Starting with freshly washed hair Matthew used the L’Oréal Paris EverStyle Curl Activating Mousse, distributed from root to end with a large tooth comb placing hair in a finger wave going back and away from the face.

Matthew diffused her hair until it was dry. He then took a “1″ barrel iron and spot waved it to create truly defined curls. Once the desired texture was achieved, Matthew combed his fingers through her curls to loosen up the wave.

To smooth out the look, Matthew used the L’Oréal Paris EverStyle Alcohol-Free Smooth & Shine Crème & Serum throughout her entire head. He finished the look with L’Oréal Paris Elnett Unscented Hairspray to lock Julianna’s hair into place.

Makeup Artist: Kristofer Buckle

Inspiration: For Julianna’s makeup, Kris was inspired by her dove grey, pearlescent Calvin Klein dress. Using a color palette of pastels, he wanted to create a feminine look that matched the radiant glow of her jewelry and gown.

MAKEUP/ Step by Step How-To:

Kris kept Julianna’s skin looking flawless with L’Oréal Paris True Match Super-Blendable Makeup in Soft Ivory and L’Oréal Paris Visible Lift Serum Age Reversing Concealer in Light which worked together to accentuate her olive skin tone.

For a pearlescent glow he applied L’Oréal Paris Magic Smooth Soufflé Blush to the apples of her cheeks in Plume.

The eyes were romantic, highlighted by smoky shades of L’Oréal Paris Infallible Eye Shadow in Sultry Smoke and Iced Latte (accenting the corners of her eyes).

Three coats of L’Oréal Paris Voluminous False Fiber Lashes Mascara in Black was applied to frame the eyes.

Lips were vibrant but simple with a hint of pink using L’Oreal Infallible 8 HR Le Gloss in Pink Topaz.

Get the look–Dianna Agron’s hair at the 2012 SAG Awards

Cindy Bokma — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 23:37:46 +0000

I love Dianna Agron’s upswept hair here! Read on to learn how to get the look…

INSPIRATION: celebrity hairstylist Adir Abergel wanted to create a romantic up-do to mimic the movement of Dianna’s dress.

How To Get the Look: Adir began by applying Fekkai Brilliant Glossing Cream from the roots to the ends of the wet hair to create texture. He then rough-dried the hair with his hands. After the hair was completely dry, he sprayed Fekkai Oceanique Tousled Waved Spray throughout the hair, and rough dried it through once more. To begin the up-do Adir took a section of the hair from the top of the left ear and created a long fishtail braid.

He then wrapped that braid around the front of the head like a crown, leaving the hair underneath loose and undone. Adir then took the rest of the hair and created three more fishtail braids, ultimately twisting them together in the back of the head and securing them with hairpins. To hold the look Adir sprayed Fekkai Sheer Hold Hairspray .

All products by Fekkai: Fekkai Brilliant Glossing Cream ($25), Fekkai Oceanique Tousled Wave Spray ($25), Fekkai Sheer Hold Hairspray ($25). Available at Fekkai.com and Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, and Saks Fifth Avenue stores.

Celebrity Hair Styles: Short Hair Is Coming Back

Cindy Bokma — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 20:50:10 +0000

When I was younger, my earliest hairstyle was a little something called The Dorothy Hamill wedge. I had that coif for years. For some reason, and I don’t know what I was thinking, I cut my hair super short. I distinctly remember telling the hair stylist, “Really short, like over my ears.”

Olympic Skater Dorothy Hamill's famous short hair style from the 70's

Imagine a very gawky pre-teen with super short hair, pale skin, braces and a headgear wearing overalls. Not my best look. Ever since that terribly short hair do, I vowed never again.

Molly Ringwald's short do from the 80's

There was the Molly Ringwald phase where I wanted to look like (and be) Molly. I cut my hair into a cloud of fluff and teased the front, nice and high and very stiff. You might have guessed this was the 80′s. And now, as an adult with admittedly thin, fine hair, there is not much to do other than trim it or go short.

Cameron Diaz

I’ve been watching Cameron Diaz lately because she trimmed her hair a while back to shoulder length but then really went for it, cutting her locks into a short ‘do that I think looks pretty cute. Naturally, when you are as pretty as Cameron, you can do almost anything and look good.

Cameron Diaz

I’m toying with the idea of going shorter but I worried I couldn’t pull my hair into a ponytail (right now its the size of a baby carrot) or bun ( the size of a Dunkin’ Donuts Munchkin, if that big). Here Cam shows us that even with short hair, you can still stick a bunch of bobby pins in there and make it work! Up or down, I’m digging the style.

Jennifer Aniston

I just read somewhere important like US or Glamour or People, that Jennifer Aniston is going with shorter hair too. Did you know she wore hair extentions? Apparently her hair is worn out from them. And here I thought those golden locks were all hers!

xoxo

Celebrity Beauty Alert: Spring Hair Trends For 2012

Cindy Bokma — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 18:23:32 +0000

Lately I have been seeing a lot of this royal blue color and I predict blue will be a major color this spring! Complimentary to nearly everyone’s skin tone and color, this gorgeous shade was seen on Charlize Theron, Cameron Diaz and Jennifer Lopez. Cameron also sports shorter hair which brings me to…

Hottest celebrity hair styles this Spring

Hair trends! Thank goodness the new styles are shorter! This is good news for people like me who are not capable of growing long luxurious locks!

Julianne Hough, January Jones and Ali Larter sporting the new Spring Hair trend!

I love Julianne Hough’s color, style and length. Ideal for those of you lucky women with hair that is on the thick side. For thinner and straighter hair, January Jones and Ali Larter (both new moms) choose a sharp edged blunt bob.

Botox For The Hair? Angelo David’s Couture Hair Extensions are the secret

Beth — Thu, 19 Jan 2012 19:16:50 +0000

Celebrity Hairstylist Angelo David The Authority on Hair Extensions

Reveals his secrets to great hair length, volume, style, and glamour.

Angelo David Couture Hair Extensions and Additions™ also known as “Botox for the Hair” is the secret to taking your tresses from short to long, thin to thick, or just adding a little oomph to your look. They can be your best-kept-secret…that is, when done correctly.

A beauty-industry veteran, Celebrity Hairstylist Angelo of Angelo David Salon in New York City, found himself frustrated with the lack of quality and customization available for his clients and set about to create a hair-addition system that would reflect the uniqueness of the individual.

After years of research and development, Angelo David Couture Hair Extensions and Additions™ (couture extensions for length; additions and fillers for fuller, thicker hair; fringe for bangs or hairline correction; and wigs) became a reality— a collection of customizable, 100-percent genuine tresses.

Designed on-site to match your hair texture, type and color, blending seamlessly into your lifestyle for an always beautiful, natural look. As Angelo says, “Over the years, I have worked extensively with long hair, short hair, curly hair and ethnic hair for men and women of all ages and the secret is to work with the extensions so that it looks like your own hair.” Following the application, the hair is cut and styled for flawless blending. Like haute couture designs, everything about Couture Hair is original and personalized.

I have had mine in since December and love them! It makes such a huge difference and they blend in beautifully. If you are going to make the investment, you need to go to the best. For me it’s Angelo David.

Once you get your extensions in, you’ll want to pick up a bottle of the new Premier Volume Spray from Angelo David. A must for adding incredible fullness and volume to your hair without creating stiffness on wet or dry hair. The transformative volumizer’s flexible-conditioning formula combines silk and wheat proteins, panthenol and avocado for extra strength and hydration. Evening Primrose enhances shine, while sun protectors keep color vibrant.

DIRECTIONS: Mist evenly onto freshly shampooed, towel dried hair. Spray directly onto lifted sections from roots to mid-shaft and style as desired. On dry or second-day hair; for extra volume, “set” with your blow dryer, directing air flow multi-directionally.

The new 4 fl. oz (118 ml) Premier Volume Spray will be available exclusively at Angelo David Salon and www.angelodavid.com for $18.50 starting January 25^th, 2012. For every bottle sold, $1.00 will be donated to the Lupus Foundation of America (www.lupus.org).

The New Beachy Wave seen on Kristen Wiig at the 2012 Golden Globes

The Girls in the BSW Beauty Dept. — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 03:31:29 +0000

“Working with Kristen Wiig for the Golden Globes was a dream come true. She’s smart, she’s funny, and she’s drop-dead gorgeous,” hairstylist Mark Townsend told us. Because her dress and jewelry were so dramatic, he went for lush but low-key hair. “I wanted volume on the sides, but not on top, and a matte finish. I think that’s so modern,” he said.

Using Dove products, Townsend worked a dollop of mousse into damp hair and blew it dry with a round brush. Next, he spritzed three-inch sections with hairspray before wrapping them around a curling iron, and raking through each spiral with his fingers to break-up the waves. “This isn’t a beachy wave. This is something new,” he adds.

Get ready to want dragon hair

Andi Scarbrough — Thu, 05 Jan 2012 17:35:43 +0000

Short, androgynous cuts have always held a powerful desire. In the 1920’s, women began a defiant trend and cut their hair, and their dresses, mind-blowingly short. Pretty rebellious for women who only thirty years prior were virtuous Victorians who wore corsets and covered their ankles. When Feminine fashion rounded another curve in the the 60’s, Mia Farrow’s signature crop was simultaneously blithely boyish, strong, and ultra feminine.

Cropped and brilliantly tinted hairstyles last peaked in the late 1980’s-90’s. Since then, “punk” has become “pretty”. Tattoos have not only worked their way into extremely successful professional careers, but made it onto the bodies of super models showcasing satin evening gowns. Some will say this is a sad mainstreaming of a great look. I say we are breaking through the next ceiling in redefining sexy, again.

So now what?? Clearly fashion is gender bent and hell bound to take it to the next level. I, for one, cannot wait. The most prevalent example being the hot, edgy brunette who is the face of one of the most talked about stories of this year. The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo is going to become everyday/everywhere sexy.

Already these ladies have been rocking the crop with strikingly beautiful results. But to see what’s next, we need to check out what’s happening now.

Not on the runways, but in the streets. …Or Irish Pubs, if you will. A few weeks ago, I met a lovely barkeep named Krystal, who’s hair fascinated me to an extent that I kept ordering drinks in order to get a better look at it. When I asked, she told me she did it herself. Pretty impressive! She also said, somewhat apologetically, this was the tamest her hir has been in some time. My favorite part was the side she grooved out in horizontal rows on one side that let her drop down those long sections you see pinned back here and camo the bare skin for some of her modeling gigs. Thanks for letting me insoect your head Krystal. And for not thinking I was TOO weird.

So what comes next? Well, I think that we’re gonna see more dragon tattoos in 2012, most certainly, but I sure hope to see them in evening gowns, and tailored suits, and everywhere beautiful, powerful women are.

PS: Here is my FAVORITE look for the coming year: A disconnected fringe on a pixie/crop. Thank you Megan Morris, who here wears one of the all-time-sexiest-hairstyles ever.
