DIY haircut?!

Vanessa Hudgens
Pefect example of why people shouldn't cut their own hair.  This is probably worst than her naked picture leaks! She look so much older!  It does not match her face shape at all!


I absolutely cannot stand how her hair is growing back! What do you guys think?

My Mini Hair Extension

I walked by the San Genarro Festival in New York City's Little Italy and I got a mini hair extension!  It was for the Breast Cancer Awareness donation hence the pink.  My sister and I both got one and we're loving it! It was a trend this past summer but since it's always trending to rock something for a good cause =)  Here is a picture:


Really love it!

Painless way to break into your shoes

I always assume a stylist is more than a hair expert, I expect her to be a fashion and beauty thesaurus!  Giving tips is the way to go to make you a reliable stylists.  It's also important to demonstrate that you're detail oriented and you know your clients' sense of style.  For example, if you see a female client walk into your salon with high heels, you may know how much pain she's in or how much pain she's gone through to break those shoes in.  Do you have any advice for her?  Here's Michelle Phan's ingenius tip!


What are some of your personal tips??

Missoni For Target

I love learning about fashion updates and new trends!  Missoni, in collaboration with Target created an absolutely gorgeous clothing and furniture line at great affordable prices!  Target's website went down because of all this craziness!  People were lining up at Target since 4am in the morning for Missioni's bike.  Sharing local news with your clients is a great way to get them coming back to you!

Fashion Night Out Tonight!!

Fashion Night Out is Tonight!  This year's would be my first FNO ever and I'm super excited to meet celebrities and snag free stuff!  Yesterday, I spotted beautiful models walking down streets of New York City and on the trains and I am super envious of their gorgeous outfits and beautiful hair.

Find me in Sephora on Times Square!  I'm planning to meet the infamous, beautiful and talented Michelle Phan!  I'm also stoked about meeting Pam the evil, sexy vampire from True Blood, who will also be at a Sephora on Times Square to help promote the True Blood Palette.  I actually do want the palette!  The whole point of FNO is to boost the economy by encouraging consumers to have fun shopping!  I'm also meeting friends on Union Square's DSW and hopefully, I'll get there on time for their free foldable flats gift with any purchase! 

What events are happening in your neighborhood? Share share share by commenting!  I love finding out about events because work is exhausting and I'd like to look forward to experiencing new things at the end of a long day!

Jewelry Tip

Fashion jewelry make great accessories! One negative aspect: It'll rust within days. Fingers will turn blue and green.

A great tip to offer any stylish, accessory loving client is to let them know how to take care of their jewelry!


Coat the inner rims of rings to prevent oxidation!

Like jewelry, hair is an accessory. Give your client a little chemistry lesson by going into how oxidation also takes place in hair, causing hairs to look dull and dried. Many drugstore shampoos, including Pantene, coat the hair with silicone, like a top coat nail polish, making hair appear shiny and no repair is really performed in the hair. Which is why it is necessary to make frequent visits to your salon because your products can really help moisturize the hair and repair it on a molecular level.

Tip & Celebrity Obsession: Kristen Stewart

I think it's important for stylists to be updated with celebrities' styles and gossips.  Having conversations about celebrities' hair, make- up and popular culture is a great way to bond with your clients.  Find out what's trending on youtube and twitter because you wouldn't want to be caught speechless in a conversation about celebrity moms or weddings.  There's a great beauty community on the web and it'll be great if you can introduce some of your favorite beauty bloggers to your clients.  A great way to demonstrate your excellent taste is through your reccommendations. 

Here's a great topic:  Kristen Stewart looks absolutely amazing in her photoshoot with W Magazine's Sept. issue!  There are lots of tutorials on how to achieve her makeup look on youtube.  Her hair is absolutely stunning as well!  I originally thought she was very plain looking and boring like her character on Twilight but I'm beginning to love her mysterious, gothic, vibe.
