Lighter Locks

Kate Beckinsale has always been known for her dark, luscious locks, so we were shocked when we saw her trade them in for blonde! But I have to admit she looks stunning as a blonde. Use her as your inspiration to try something new with your 'do this spring. After all, women try an average of 104 hairstyles during their lifetime!

Women of Sundance Film Festival

I love when I see how celebrities dress and do their hair when they come for the Sundance Film Festival, it makes fashion feel a little more realistic and attainable. There were a lot of hats to keep chilly heads warm, like Malin Akerman. Jessica Alba kept it chic and simple by pulling her hair back and adding a headband, while Ashley Olsen let her natural texture show.

Braids were out in full force.

I also saw a lot of ear muffs. Super cute, a great way to stay warm and keep your hair in check.

hair how-to: SAG awards

To get hair like Lea:
1] On wet hair spray Bb. Prep all over hair followed by Thickening Hairspray on roots and ends for volume. Finish with surf spray on ends for texture.
2] Blow dry hair upside down.
3] Once hair is completely dry spray with Does it All hairspray for light hold and heat protection. Wrap sections of hair around a large (I usually use a 1 inch) curling iron, away from the face.
4] Tossle curls with your hands. Finish with more Does it All hairspray.



for hair like Christina:
1] Spray Prep all over hair, followed by Thickening Hairspray on roots and ends for volume. Smooth a small amount of Grooming Creme through the midshafts and ends for polish.
2] Round brush hair for volume and smoothness.
3] Spray hair with Does it All hairspray for heat protection. With a large curling iron (again I use 1 inch) curl hair away from face, inside the curling iron (for a tighter curl).
4] Tossle curls with hands. Follow with another spray of Does it All.
5] If you like how her bangs swoop up and back follow step #3 of January Jones hair how-to.

To get January's hair:

1] On wet hair spray Prep followed by Styling Creme on roots and ends to create volume and hold. Apply a small amount of Defrizz to keep the hair smooth and to avoid flyaways.
2] Part hair on the side and blow dry using a round brush.
3] To accentuate the wave on the top, use a 1 inch curling iron to curl the hair back into pin curls (curl small sections with curling iron and instead of letting the curl fall down, pin the curl with a bobby pin or clip while it cools).
4] Once the curls have cooled brush through them to create volume and shape.
5] Pin the hair back at the center of the head. Finish with Classic Hairspray.

*all hair styling products are Bumble and bumble.

SAG Awards

Award Season is going full force in Hollywood, which for me means spring hair trends! A lot of stars had their hair down and wavy, definitely a big hair trend right now that will continue into the spring.


I said this last time but January Jones is perfection to me. She always pulls off the best hair styles (tomorrow will be a hair how-to), not to mention I LOVE that dress.


I liked Natalie's simple hair style but mostly I just love that she's showing off her baby bump!


I've been saying this the last several months, but RED hair is taking center stage this year! We have had a lot of Salon guests coming in to take the plunge! If an all over red is too much for you try adding some red, strawberry or orange tones as lowlights or highlights.
