Can’t Decide Between Highlights or Balayage: Here’s a Comprehensive Guide

Understanding the differences between highlights and balayage is crucial to achieving the hair of your dreams. Both techniques deliver beautiful, dimensional color, but the method and effect differ significantly.

Here are a few trendy styles to watch for, and I’m excited to help you embrace them!

The bob is making a comeback! Or has it ever really gone away? This classic haircut remains timeless and always in vogue. Moving away from the previously popular textured ends, we now see a resurgence of the strong blunt line. The French bob has become the go-to style that you can spot all around town when it comes to trendy styles.

Waves and curls defined the essence of Old Hollywood glamour, captivating audiences with the enchanting styles of icons like Marilyn Monroe and Rita Hayworth. If you're eager to channel that classic allure, why not embrace the artistry of vintage hair styling with rollers instead of a hot curling iron?

Choosing the right products can be challenging, especially when it seems like one solution might work wonders for your friend but fall flat for you. That's why understanding your hair type is paramount. Here’s a breakdown to help you navigate the world of hair care with confidence.

By embracing the right strategies and products, you can confidently combat frizz and showcase your beautiful hair texture—whatever the weather may bring!

Pumpkin Hair Mask Recipe

What You Will Need

• Pumpkin puree (about 1 1/2 cups)

• 1/4 cup coconut oil

• 2 tbsp raw honey

• Optional: Yogurt, nutmeg, essential oil

Use a large barrel curling iron to curl large sections of hair. Then mess it up! Shake your head, toss your hair upside down, and pull those curls into waves. Finish the look by applying your favorite hair spray like HOLD ME LITE to keep your beach waves lasting all day.

• Use a Leave-In Conditioner Before Swimming: Shield your hair with a quality leave-in conditioner and styling creme like J Beverly Hills 5 in 1 or the Everyday Detangling Leave-in Spray, which adds essential UV protection.

Next, apply a small amount of coconut oil through your ends to add moisture and shine. This combination will not only bring your hair back to life but also create a fun texture for styling. If you're blonde, this is a perfect time to brighten up your color, as the dry shampoo can enhance those beautiful highlights. If you've been around food or smoke, dry shampoo helps eliminate unwanted odors while giving you that fresh scent.

Life happens. It knocks us off our horses, but the important thing is to get back on and ride the best we can.
