eye contact

your eyebrows are just as important to include in your beauty regiment as your haircut and hair color. they are a prominent part of your face and having them polished and maintained will make all the difference in the world.


first and foremost is the shape. the more angular your face, the softer your curve should be. if you have a round face, a sharper arch will elongate it. check into the salon and have your beauty pro guide you with the proper shape. tweeze gently between waxing appointments to keep the shape if you feel comfortable.
occasionally brows need to be trimmed. bushy eyebrows are frightening! simply comb the hairs up and trim with eyebrow scissors, the difference is phenomenal!
my favorite trick is adding color to your eyebrows! if your hair colorist is turning your dishwater blonde hair to a rich mocha brown the difference may be noticeable in your brows. an easy fix to this problem is pencil, a good trick to make sure the pencil doesn't look too harsh is to gently blend it in with a tissue to soften it. if you're more daring you can have your hairdresser apply hair color to your eyebrows. using professional hair color  is great, you don't have to reapply every morning. adding color to your face brightens your skin and makes your eyes pop!

get your face in the game!

faux banger

okay so as i was talking about before i've become obsessed with bangs. so for those of you that have shear shock here's an amazing alternative. jessica simpson has a line of different hair extensions. i've been a fan of her clip in extensions, an excellent alternative when you just can't make your hair grow! well her latest addition is a clip-in bang.

this is an excellent alternative if you're dieing to try those amazing bangs but you just don't have the guts to make the chop. three tiny clips hold this beauty in place. the best price i've found for them is on QVC. once you get them it's best to bring them into the salon and i can trim them up for you and you'll be fab in a flash!




find these bangs all over the november issue of LUCKY!

bang on
