THE KNOW HOW
Beat the Braid Dilemma
Braiding is really simple! It just requires some practice &
patience. I will give you my best tips for the perfect braid and
walk you through the steps of braiding.
Step One:
Separate the section of hair you want to braid into 3
strands. For example, if I want to braid my ponytail, I will
separate the ponytail into three sections.
Step Two:
Start with the piece on the right. Cross this piece over the
middle piece. This becomes the new middle.
Step T hree:
Take the left piece and cross it over your new middle
piece. This now becomes the middle piece.
Step Four:
Continue crossing the right and left pieces over the
middle until you have an inch or two left. Secure with a
ponytail.
Braiding Tips!
Frizz Defying Hair Cream will keep your braid sleek all day.
I use one called Crack.
Have little hairs sticking up? Use an old toothbrush to
brush them down without ruining your braid.
I have curly hair, but sometimes I straighten my hair for a
different look. You can also curl your hair before braiding
and get a different look.
Finish with a little hairspray for a look that lasts all day!
THE PERFECT BROW
Makeup, in today's society, is something many girls focus on. The perfect eyebrow is one of
the things that many girls hope to achieve. Figuring out how to get your perfect brow can be a
process, but following these tips and tricks can help you achieve just that!
1.
BEFORE YOU START
applying any makeup, make sure you have
a good setup, which includes a good light
source and mirror. Make sure you have all
the basics for your eyebrows which
include: brow pencil, brow liner and an
angled brush.
2. READY TO BEGIN
For me, being a blonde and having very
light-colored eyebrows, I first like to take
the brow pencil and fill in any sparse areas
very lightly with small strokes. Not
everyone will need to do this step.
3. KNOW WHERE YOU’RE GOING
Completely fill in your brows using the
brow gel liner and the angled brush. Start
with short strokes for a natural look. Start
towards the middle of your brow and go
to the end. If you are struggling with where
to end, use the outside corner of your eye
and go diagonally from it.
4. FOCUS ON THE FRONT
Still using the angled brush, make the
short light strokes and brush the front
hairs up. By doing this it will make your
brow appear fuller.
5. SEE YOUR COMPLET ED BROW
By now you should have a completed
brow and should be happy with the
outcome. If you did make a few mistakes,
you can always underline the eyebrow with
concealer or white eyeshadow.
