While I am talking about hair flowers, I am not talking about flowers made out of your hair. I'm talking about real flowers that you put in your hair. You know, for decoration.<br />
<br />
I've been really into flowers in the hair for a while. It's such an ethereal look. It takes me back to the 70s, with hippies, and love, and peace. Which...how could you not want that?<br />
<br />

How are you with a round brush?<div class="blogger-post-footer">http://feeds.feedburner.com/OnStageHairDesign</div>Cassidy Thomashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16566578017080388252noreply@blogger.com29tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2280270712643634320.post-32224921614654500402013-04-18T19:45:00.001-07:002013-04-18T19:45:38.674-07:00Runway to Real LifeLet's talk about runway fashion.<br />
<br />
It's a little strange.<br />
<br />
Unless you're sitting at the J. Crew runway show things can get a little avante garde. Which is what runway is about a lot of times. But it's difficult for the consumer (<i>That's us!) </i>to translate that avante garde fashion into the every day life.<br />
<br />
It goes further than that though. Not only are the clothes over the top, but so is the hair and makeup. I don't know about you, but I look to the runway to see the trends for the upcoming season. So it's all about taking the outrageous, and turning into the fabulous.<br />
<br />
<br />
Check it out.<br />

<br />
And it's so true. There are days where you can try and try but no matter want you do you're going to have big hair. And that's okay. There's nothing wrong with big hair. In fact, one could argue that big hair is sexier. <br />
<br />
One, being me. <br />
<br />

Cute, easy ways. Being a Texas...and it being April...the shadow of summer is looming overhead.<br />

And my goodness does it get hot. If you have long hair, you know what it's like to feel it sticking to your neck with sweat. Ew. It's gross. But maybe you get tired of the same old pony tail routine.<br />

Most updos are easier when your hair is curled first. It helps to be able to twist and tuck. So start with it curled, then tease it big girl!</div>

I just rolled the rest of the hair up, and pinned it into place. It's off her neck, and way cuter than a pony.</div>

<br />
"Highlights please."<br />
<br />
Don't lie. I know you do. Because I do too. But there are other ways to achieve the look you want.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Balayage </span><br />
It's a French technique found a couple of decades ago. The technique uses a thicker bleach mixture that allows for the stylist to freehand where they want to place the highlight. It can be used on pretty much any hair length, pixie to super long.<br />
<br />
It's a nice technique that can produces a lot of cool effects, from ombre and subtle highlights to extreme blonding. It's great because since it is placed freehanded, it doesn't produce a harsh line when growing out like normal highlights sometimes can.<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">12 series</span><br />
Here at On Stage we use Wella color, which has a line called 12 series. Basically, there are levels of hair shades. The lower the number the darker the hair. 12 is pretty much as blonde as you can get. The 12 series is a high-lift color, which can help you achieve that look you want without the harshness of bleach.<br />
<br />
<br />
These are a couple of other options that you have for blonding. Next time your in the chair and want to say, "highlights please," talk with your haircare professional about some other options. Change can be good.<br />
<br />

The last thing we want to do is get up early, fix your hair, and look presentable. I mean, I know I'd rather sleep that extra twenty minutes.<br />
<br />
So this tutorial is for those days. For second day hair. Or third day hair. Or, hell, even fourth day hair.<br />

Already bluebonnets are out and I can't help by drive down I-45 saying, "ooooo ahhhh."<br />
<br />
<br />
When new Spring styles come out I always feel like Meryl Streep in The Devil Wears Prada.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.alllacqueredup.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/devil-wears-prada-florals-for-spring-groundbreaking.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://www.alllacqueredup.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/devil-wears-prada-florals-for-spring-groundbreaking.gif" /></a></div>
<br />
It just always feels the same to me. But I'm kind of excited about these trends, because well...they're sort of like the Fall trends and I was obsessed with those.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Red lips.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm mean...let's be honest. You know I'm obsessed with red lips. It's an instant confidence booster. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

Ginnifer Goodwin is flawless. There has never been a time I looked at that girl and thought, wow, she could use a little work. I mean...she is freaking Snow White. </div>

You see how dewy she looks? Like she is glowing. Well...that look can be achieved very simply using some highlighter. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Step 1: moisturize</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's arguably the most important step. If you're skin isn't moisturized, then the dewiness has no reason to look dewy. Does that even make sense?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Step 2: foundation</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
you can apply your foundation as normal. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;">Step 3: cheek contouring</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You want to apply your highlighter in these areas. It's okay if you don't have an actually "highlighter", you can use any light colored eyeshadow. That one that you always use to swipe across your brows? It's perfect for this. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Do you have a moisture spray that sets your foundation? Make sure you use it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Now...go be flawless like Ginnifer. I know you are. </div>

I can barely pronounce it. But here's what it means...<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
petechia or the plural, petechiae: red or purple spots on the body caused by minor busted capillary blood vessels.</blockquote>
<br />
Basically it is bleeding under the skin, which in turn causes the skin to appear red or purple. It looks like a rash, but is flat to the touch and doesn't change color when your press on it. But don't freak out. It is usually not life threatening. <br />
<br />
You know what I'm talking about now? So what causes it you ask?<br />
<br />
Well...<br />
<br />
Petechia is usually caused by some distress to the skin. Things like:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>crying</li>
<li>coughing</li>
<li>vomiting</li>
<li>weightlifting </li>
<li>even childbirth</li>
</ul>
<div>
But sometimes medicine can cause petechia. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Aspirin</li>
<li>Atropine</li>
<li><span style="line-height: 24px;">Carbamazepine (Carbatrol, Epitol, Tegretol, others)</span></li>
<li><span style="line-height: 24px;">Chloral hydrate (Somnote)</span></li>
<li><span style="line-height: 24px;">Cimetidine (Tagamet)</span></li>
<li><span style="line-height: 24px;">Desipramine (Norpramin)</span></li>
<li><span style="line-height: 24px;">Indomethacin (Indocin)</span></li>
<li><span style="line-height: 24px;">Morphine (Avinza, Ms Contin, others)</span></li>
<li><span style="line-height: 24px;">Naproxen (Aleve, Anaprox, Naprosyn)</span></li>
<li><span style="line-height: 24px;">Nitrofurantoin (Furadantin, Macrobid, Macrodantin)</span></li>
<li><span style="line-height: 24px;">Penicillin</span></li>
<li><span style="line-height: 24px;">Quinine (Qualaquin)</span></li>
</ul>
<div>
<span style="line-height: 24px;">There are times that petechia can be a sign of a larger illness, like leukemia or mononucleosis. If you develop widespread or unexplained petechia, it is time to see a doctor. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="line-height: 24px;">But unless you have some underlying problem, don't worry, petechia will go away in a couple of days. Leaving no traces behind. </span></div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></div>

<br />
Due to some technical difficulties yesterday, I was unable to post this tutorial. But here it is now. In all it's glory.<br />
<br />
People are always talking about trying to make their eyes appear wider, because let's face it...No one likes sad, closed eyes. So here's a quick tutorial on how to do so. It's very easy. It only involves two eyeshadow colors (nude and brown), eyeliner (black), and mascara (black).<br />
<br />

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
It's not something you normally think about. Medicine and your hair. You think about all those crazy side effects that are said so fast on the commercial that you can't ever really understand what their saying. Maybe they mention something about your hair, maybe that don't. But the truth remains the same...there are numerous ways that medicine can affect your hair.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Hair loss. </span>Is probably one of the biggest ones. Sometimes people experience something called t<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 16px;">elogen effluvium. It's a fancy word that means some of your hair </span></span><span style="line-height: 16px;">follicles are prematurely falling out. </span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="line-height: 16px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="line-height: 16px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-size: large; line-height: 16px;">pH balance. </span><span style="line-height: 16px;">Some medications can cause the pH in your hair to get off balance. It can affect how soft your hair is or even cause problems when getting your hair colored. </span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="line-height: 16px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="line-height: 16px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="line-height: 16px;">If you start taking a new medicine, talk to your doctor about possible side effects for your hair. Or if you start experiencing any sort of funny business with your hair, talk to your doctor. Your stylist can work with you on any problems you're experiencing, whether that be hair loss, brittleness, or color spotting. </span><br />
<span style="line-height: 16px;"><br /></span>
<span style="line-height: 16px;">And remember...always read your med info packet. That's all for today's public service announcement. </span><div class="blogger-post-footer">http://feeds.feedburner.com/OnStageHairDesign</div>Cassidy Thomashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16566578017080388252noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2280270712643634320.post-25661984448384875862013-03-05T17:59:00.001-08:002013-03-05T18:03:57.873-08:00How To Tuesday: Aveda Pin CurlsOkay, that title might be a little misleading. This post is about enhancing your curls by using a pin curl technique. I guess technically you leave your hair in the pin curl, though I would use some different clips. Then it wouldn't be false advertisement. Good. I'm not a liar then.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPSmN7aorEXQgzcCRYPkDkwNC0A0Izrhckc5YD9If5VvE0dIkXj63IVStqqPcB-zMhqKeDBqVaQId2j32Dcy7HT0vUPPpC5LG4u1ynOhwMAcMGzFyn_7zzJCQOew2ZSHk7xkWw1AZ3Xbs/s1600/becurly.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPSmN7aorEXQgzcCRYPkDkwNC0A0Izrhckc5YD9If5VvE0dIkXj63IVStqqPcB-zMhqKeDBqVaQId2j32Dcy7HT0vUPPpC5LG4u1ynOhwMAcMGzFyn_7zzJCQOew2ZSHk7xkWw1AZ3Xbs/s1600/becurly.jpeg" /></a></div>
<br />
So this technique utilizes the entire be curly line, which I love. If you have curly hair and haven't tried it out, please do. It is pretty amazing.<br />
<br />
Check it out.<br />

In fact, it's a multibillion dollar industry...the anti-gray hair industry. Only few people can pull it off. Like Meryl Streep. But let's be honest...she could probably pull off purple hair. Or no hair.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7Dvm6lUx8ELRckRc7IDIBbqgaXLarzgcGobjqrwQMxsEmhGzgndw9OQn4bfHeg4gkPcY3725AvA6exf3d0CwllD2zPxL4TPt-ELlRndkBalE0IHFleBnvStGqxKDtOhZc3xgEDV-Rb4k/s1600/meryl-streep.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7Dvm6lUx8ELRckRc7IDIBbqgaXLarzgcGobjqrwQMxsEmhGzgndw9OQn4bfHeg4gkPcY3725AvA6exf3d0CwllD2zPxL4TPt-ELlRndkBalE0IHFleBnvStGqxKDtOhZc3xgEDV-Rb4k/s320/meryl-streep.jpg" width="209" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
So what causes it?<br />
<br />
Something called <i>apoptosis. </i>Basically, the cells located at the base of the hair follicles slow, thus stopping the production of color pigment. It is the lack of pigment that makes the hair appear gray or white. So it's not really your hair turning gray, it's your hair losing its color.<br />
<br />
Things that cause hair to turn gray are:<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li>Obviously aging. More than 60% of Americans have some gray hair by the time their forty, but can start getting it as early as childhood.</li>
<li>Stress</li>
<li>Medical conditions. Albinism, malnutrition, Werner Syndrome.</li>
<li>Other factors. Like smoking. Some studies have found a link between smoking and gray hair. Just another reason not to do it.</li>
</ol>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Do you have gray hair? Do you cover it up, or let if grow free?</div>

But don't worry...keratosis pilaris is something that lots of people deal with and it's not life threatening.<br />
<br />
Wikipedia describes it as:<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 19.1875px;">a common, </span>autosomal<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 19.1875px;"> </span>dominant<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 19.1875px;">, </span>genetic<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 19.1875px;"> </span>follicular <span style="background-color: white; line-height: 19.1875px;">condition that is manifested by the appearance of rough, slightly red, bumps on the skin. It most often appears on the back and outer sides of the arm</span></span></i></blockquote>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
Simply put, it's those little red bumps that some people get on their arms. Somewhere around 40% of the population suffer from it. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
What happens is, the body produces too much keratin. You know keratin, it's a natural protein found in your skin and hair. So this extra protein has no where to go, so it surronds the hair follicles in the pore, producing little bumps. A lot of times, this causes ingrown hairs to form. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So what do you do if you have it?</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Well, there has been some research the links a deficiency in Vitamin A to keratosis pilaris. So make sure your getting some Vitamin A. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
You also will want to exfoliate the area, to help out with those ingrowns. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
And of course, moisturize. </div>

For two months, I've worn it the exact same way every day. Don't get me wrong, it's super cute that way, but it was like wearing the same outfit every day. I can barely wear the same outfit twice.<br />
<br />
We've done a tutorial in the past on a <a href="http://onstagehair.blogspot.com/2012/07/how-to-tuesday-punk-rock-pixie.html">punk rock pixie</a>, but I wasn't really feeling the "punk" today...so I decided to do a similar style, but more polished.<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Step 1: Product</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
While wet, apply some product that will give you some hold. I used Sebastian Whipped Creme. A light mousse, that also makes your hair super soft.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Step 2: Blowdry</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQX6oPUWoe8eIyhhaFH1yE892jfdVU12KyviVoarnHFxo3i6pOFlsrQOD_g-w-rF_RCc7ZM5ndSJnJ2bofpKQgxNuvIm1GjfaWkO2umCSma4XXbEu8mUQAHLyPOQiTOjMC8oe1ZPeoOdI/s1600/IMG_2246.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQX6oPUWoe8eIyhhaFH1yE892jfdVU12KyviVoarnHFxo3i6pOFlsrQOD_g-w-rF_RCc7ZM5ndSJnJ2bofpKQgxNuvIm1GjfaWkO2umCSma4XXbEu8mUQAHLyPOQiTOjMC8oe1ZPeoOdI/s320/IMG_2246.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You want to use a round brush to blowdry the hair away from the face.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Step 3: Flat Iron</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Again, using the flat iron to smooth, direct the hair away from the face.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Step 4: Pin</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Place hair exactly where you want, and use a couple of bobby pins to keep it there. Pin lightly, not too tight, to still give you that poof look.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Step 5: Spray</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Didn't really think we'd get through a tutorial without telling you to hairspray did you?</div>

My lips have been feeling a bit dry lately, so I thought it was the perfect time to try it out. It was super easy and I had all of the ingredients already in my pantry. So that's a plus!<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The Recipe:</span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px;">1/2 teaspoon of brown or white sugar</span></li>
<li><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px;">1/2 teaspoon of honey</span></li>
<li><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px;">1/2 teaspoon of olive oil</span></li>
<li><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px;">a pinch of powdered cinnamon</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2sJLFI_1YEUP3ECBSP6HqFxNgW_RPj-vCVGWx0-XtfNX12aHO0aQJsjUHdjKh19nH8rfE4vJeSZdGcDB-0QKWAaifJ3hhR4M12QX60thAZimIAXxyKKZfVeqzvIbgZUtw6Rgg0xhSas8/s1600/IMG_2167.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2sJLFI_1YEUP3ECBSP6HqFxNgW_RPj-vCVGWx0-XtfNX12aHO0aQJsjUHdjKh19nH8rfE4vJeSZdGcDB-0QKWAaifJ3hhR4M12QX60thAZimIAXxyKKZfVeqzvIbgZUtw6Rgg0xhSas8/s320/IMG_2167.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>

Then the directions say to rub all over lips for 2-3 minutes. Wash off. And then put on some chapstick. It was all so easy. This recipe wasn't hard like the other DIY recipes I have tried in the past. It took less the 5 minutes for the entire treatment. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
And my lips actually do feel softer. I don't know if I rubbed for the entire 2-3 minutes. (I had muffins in the oven that needed to come out!) But I did do it for at least a minute. I'm sure they would feel a whole lot softer if I had continued. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The edible part is for real. It tasted good when it slipped off my lips into my mouth. I wouldn't use a lip scrub unless it was made from real products. Don't want to ingest yucky processed stuff.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
