I obsess over my hair. Admit it: You do it, too. I constantly check in the mirror to see if my hair looks all right, and if I find split ends, I think it’s the end of the world. If my hair looks nice, I’m happy. If it looks bad, I’m unhappy, so I’ve come up with a lot of ways to make it look good, all the time. I’m going to share a few [...]

Sun exposure can damage your hair and make it brittle, especially if you have dry, color treated, or chemically treated hair. And how damaging to your hair is the chlorine in pool water? We’ve all heard the horror stories – and maybe have first hand knowledge – of hair discoloration after a lot of swimming in the pool. My own hair once had a distinctly green hue, and it’s not a pretty look. You know [...]

I always change up my nail polish colors and do things a little differently in the summer months. I feel that I want to go with brighter, lighter colors for my summer manicure. I shorten my nails the tiniest bit, make sure I add a top coat for plenty of shine, and use a shiny nail polish that pops. When I’m out in the bright summer sun, I find myself admiring my nails more; do [...]

If you are experiencing thinning hair, keep in mind that some of the following reasons can contribute to your hair loss. [...]

Adding long lasting style to fine hair can still be done, however: With the right hairstyle, styling products and techniques, you can achieve body and [...]

Nothing is more beautiful on a woman than beautifully manicured nails, in my opinion. They do, however, require some care and maintenance. The current shape trend is nails that are straight across the top with a rounded edge, but any nail that is well manicured looks good, so don’t let trends keep you from wearing what you think looks best on you. I have short, square-tipped fingers so I let mine grow out past the [...]
