Low-Maintenance Highlights
Posted on July 14, 2010 | Leave a CommentUsually "low-maintenance highlights" for me means peek-a-boo lowlights that only cover a small triangular section of hair behind each ear. Although the placement of these types of lowlights can look great for several months without needing touch-up, they don't add too much color to my hair.

Your cap will stay on easier and will look nicer in pictures if you keep the top as flat as possible and pin the cap down with a few bobby pins. Read more... -
Hairlocs Hair Extensions
Posted on May 26, 2010 | 14 CommentsI first tried Hairloc extensions in the beginning of January 2010, and I've been happy with the quality of the extensions overall. I went to the salon once in the past 5 months to move the extensions back up near the roots of my hair, but other than that these extensions have held up and retained the funky colors I wanted (which usually wash out in 1 to 2 weeks if I colored my actual hair). If you plan to try Hairloc extensions, here are the Do's and Don'ts to make your extensions last as long as possible! Read more... -
Vidal Sassoon Triple-Barrel Waver
Posted on May 6, 2010 | 4 CommentsI found my old Vidal Sasson Triple-Barrel Waver I had my first year of college. It's my second one ever, since I had misplaced my first one that I got sometime in high school. Years later, this thing still works! I like using this triple-barrel waver to add volume and natural-looking waves to my hair. This triple-barrel waver has lasted for years, and it's cheap! Read more...
