Day 98 - Every Which Way

Labels: bobby pins, Holiday party, NYE Style, Updo - Sunday, January 10, 2010

This hairstyle was for my company holiday party. I wanted it to look different from my NYE style, since I was wearing the same outfit. Here's a pic from the party...

After the party, I took some pics in the same place as usual (My hubby had the camera before the party, so I couldn't take the pics then.)

What I did was take various pieces of the hair from a ponytail in different directions and then pinned them down, like I did for my friend's hairstyle a while back for a wedding

Stayed in place pretty well. But then, it should have with all the bobby pins.

Day 96 - Braided Bun

Labels: braids, bun, Updo - Thursday, January 7, 2010

Did one similar to this a while back, but didn't quite get the effect I wanted the last time. This time you can really see the braid in the back.

Here's the last time Day 57 - Mop on Top Monday

hehe... now that I look at it, I even wore white that day.

Day 95 - French Twister

Labels: easy hairstyle, pantene, pantene beautiful lengths, tonytails, Updo - Tuesday, January 5, 2010

Danette loves to buy me those tools that you see in the drug store and always want to try, but can't bring yourself to buy. Today, I tried out the "French Twister". It seemed like a good fit because I went swimming early in the morning & needed a quick hairstyle before work.

I have to say I didn't expect to use it when I first got it (sorry Danette) but it was a GREAT quick hairstyle. I had to practice a few times first. Luckily I tried it the night before. This morning, first shot is what I left all day. And this pic is at the end of the day. I have to say I give it two thumbs up! tonytail.com

P.S. to give my hair some texture & lift, I used Pantene's Root Lifting Spray.

Hair-athon Styles61-70

Labels: American Cancer Society, braids, bump-it, curly hair, pantene beautiful lengths, pouf, Updo - Thursday, December 10, 2009

In efforts to support Pantene's Beautiful Lengths Program, I've been doing a hair-athon - a marathon of hairstyles and asking for support. To support, donate your hair, help me find people who have hair long enough to donate or donate to American Cancer Society.
I'm up to day 80 and I'm on a business trip and I'm not sure how much access I'll have to a computer. So, I've decided to do a mini-recap of the styles so far. And since I've moved the date of my hair donation from December 22 to February 20 to allow people time to sign up, I need ideas of interesting posts, so here's styles 61 - 70 for those who may not have seen them.

Day 61 - I wanna be like Nicole (Or the B52 Love S...

Day 62 - Electricuted

Day 63 - Slap a Headband in it

Day 64 - Ramp it Up

Day 65 - Half Up Glam

Day 66 - Simple Kind of Life

Day 67 - Surprise Braid

Day 68 - Everybody's Heard about the Bird

Day 69 - Start it Over

Day 70 - Frenchie

Day 74 - Tyra, Tyra, Tyra

I was watching ANTM the other day and saw this cute look on the finalists.

It made me think, I wonder if Tyra would be interested in the idea of having a hair marathon to support Pantene's Beautiful Lengths? If you watch her show, she's always chaging her hair. Look at her site http://tyrashow.warnerbros.com/ and you can see that in a week's worth of shows, there are no hair repeats... hmm... I'm persistant, maybe she would be interested. Think about it. There could be a show with say 6 donators (that's how many it takes to make a wig) who cut their hair that day. Maybe she could even invite a woman who's fighting cancer & surprise her with a wig from ACS on the show... I would watch.

Anyway, here's how my style turned out. And of course, I smized...
