Black hairstyle

There are many favorite black hair styles around like braided, locks, sleek and straight, curly, short and funky or twisted and intricate hair styles. Whatever hairstyle you wish to choose, it is important to pay special attention to your facial features and bone structure. This is because some of the black hair styles can take your most beautiful facial features and make them even more stunning!

One thing to remember for the perfect black hair style is to take account of your build. For example, a close cropped black hair style does not suit one with a large frame. So remember to just make sure that your style and frame balance each other! The shape of the face too has to be taken into consideration when choosing the correct black hair style. Basically, there are five face shapes; oval, round, square, heart and rectangular. Whatever face shape you may have, it is better to choose a hair style that makes your face appear more oval. The reason the oval face is identified as the best facial shape is because of the perfect symmetry of some of the facial features it has, like the distance from the lips to the bottom of the chin.

If you do have a heart shaped face, you can make it appear more oval by positioning the weight of the black hair style at chin level. For those with round faces, it is best to minimize the cheekbones with some height in the bang. For square faces, it is better to have a hair style with short edges and texture directed towards the face. And for those with triangular shaped faces, more height and fullness should be present at the crown. With these generalized hints on black hair styles, you should go to a beauty parlor to get your hair cut accordingly!

My nephew got a ridiculous idea to take a shot at it.

Stunning Long Hairstyles 2013

You'll also want to make sure you style your hair properly to avoid some of the more common pitfalls associated with long hair. As such, the purpose of this article is to provide a compilation of expert tips and best practices for long hair.

You are what You Eat

First and foremost, always keep in mind that a balance of the right minerals and vitamins is essential for healthy strong hair. The best foods for your hair are those with lots of proteins, Omega 3 fatty acids, calcium, and vitamins such as A, B, C, E, B6, B12 and zinc.

In terms of protein, fish and seafood always make good choices, especially salmon, tuna, anchovies, herring, sardines, mackerel, and oysters. Chicken (no skin), eggs, beans, pork, and certain beef products also contain good amounts of protein. Dairy products such as yogurt, milk and cheese are also excellent sources of protein. The vitamins needed to nurture your hair can be found in a wide variety of foods, especially fruits and vegetables such as blueberries, strawberries, oranges, broccoli, spinach, and asparagus.

Hair Care Best Practices for Long Hair

In terms of your day-to-day regimen, there are some things that you ought to put into practice if you want the most stunning long hair possible. Avoid washing your hair every day; in fact 2-3 times a week is plenty. And remember to condition your hair every time you use shampoo. Also, occasional deep conditioning treatments will be rewarded by keeping your locks glowing and shiny. And if you're going to be wearing a formal hairstyle in the near future, ensure that your hair is in tip top condition by taking time out to give it a deep conditioning treatment a few days before the big event.

Different Long Hairstyles

Different long hairstyles since way back in the day when your mom made you sport the pixie cut every year until you were thirteen? Well, you're in luck. Long hairstyles are very in this year for any hair type, from straight to curly and even thin to thick. When you sport long hairstyles, it's important to keep it up and looking and feeling healthy.

Most importantly with long hairstyles, you have to prevent breakage which can cause fly-aways and unsightly layers that you didn't want to begin with. This process is whatever you make it; a few simple changes to your habits can make it an easy and fun process.

First step to preventing hair breakage is conditioning. When you condition your hair, try and find a strengthening shampoo and conditioner set, which many different brands offer. With long hairstyles you have to leave your conditioner on for at least 60 seconds, this way the conditioner really gets to the roots and scalp keeping your hair soft and healthy.

It is also important, especially with long hair since most people with long hairstyles become so tempted to throw their hair up with a ponytail holder, that you only use holders with no metal. You can find these in the hair care section at most any store, even the dollar store! Just make sure to never use the ponytail holders with the little metal part on them; it can rip your hair out causing more unsightly breakage.

Another important part of preventing breakage is combing your hair from the bottom up. After showering especially it is really helpful to comb your hair using a wide toothed comb rather than a bristle brush and start at the ends working your way to the roots.

This will prevent the breakage involved in ripping through your hair from top to bottom with a brush. Although with long hair style especially, this method can be time consuming, it really is worth it and you will see a big difference.

1/2 Up Pin Curl Barrette

If you've been reading our blog, you've probably noticed that we recently moved to the country.

It's been fun, but it's also been an adjustment. To say the least.

We're just tucked away in between several green, green, green farms at the end of a country road.

Thanks to the farmers, it looks beautiful. We often have deer and hawks in our yard. And of course cows everywhere (not
