While all eyes have been on the amazing fashions coming down numerous runways we have still kept our peepers peeled for other trends as well. We took note of the fabulous hair that has been making its way to the front row. Celebrities play just as an important part as the models themselves when it comes to making a runway show successful. The more high profile persons you see camping out on the front row the hotter the designer must be and sought after.
Celebrities have been coming out to play in droves for New York Fashion Week making for a buffet of serious style. Therefore, what hairstyle trend have we seen to be a common denominator amongst the rich and fabulous? Leading ladies and music superstars have been indulging in the bob effect. These cuts are chic, very sassy and scream, “I am woman hear me roar!” Here are a few ladies we spotted:
Celebrities are known to change their look in order to stay relevant and trendy. If they fall behind in terms of image it could literally mean their career. When it comes to the entertainment industry even a celebrity’s hair has to be more on point then a number 2 pencil.

This fashionable hair look can be just what you are looking for if you want to make a quick change. There are some turbans that you can purchase that you simply slide on and voila you are done. However, if you like to get fancy with it then you will need to know how to tie one on correctly.
Tying a turban so that it stays in place and looks amazing takes a little practice. Nevertheless, with a little effort you will be a turban tying pro in no time flat. Ready to get started? Here are two great tips to keep in mind:
If your hair is long fashion your strands into a bun at the top of your head.
If creating your turban look with a scarf it is recommended to use fabrics that are soft and thin. Nevertheless, some head wrap styles that involve a lot of twisting remain more secure if the fabric is a tiny bit thicker.
Alright it is tutorial time in order to visually get an idea on how to design a turban look that you will love wearing. Enjoy!

If you want your hair color to look salon worthy as well as to last you will want to use as many tricks from your hair arsenal as possible. First, always start with a healthy head of strands. If your tresses are not in a good condition adding chemicals is only going to make matters worse.
The tip we will discuss in this post is going to apply when you have finished applying hair color and allowed it to process. While rinsing your strands it is better to rinse with cold water than a warmer temperature. This is because warm water opens the cuticle which in turn will allow your precious hair color to escape. Moreover, if your strands have been processed with more than one color or tint, rinsing with cooler water will also help to lower and reduce any bleeding.
How cold does the water need to be when performing the rinse? Of course, colder is better, but you do not want to freeze yourself. Go as cold as you can comfortably stand and you will be able to still reap the benefits.

Two ladies who rocked some braids stood out to us during the Teen Choice Awards. Those being the stylish as well as stunning Zendaya Coleman and the always beautiful Yari Shahidi. We will get to Yari in an upcoming post, but for now let’s talk some hair when it comes to Zendaya!
At first glance you may think okay, she is wearing a high tiny bun or chignon. However, then homegirl flips around and you realize the big surprise is in the back. A LONG, skinny braid that is dramatic yet very playful.
Several, girls in office said Coleman was giving us some serious Sasha Fierce vibes. Nevertheless, Bey normally will rock a much thicker braid so we want to give Zendaya credit where credit is due. The long braid was chicly fantastic and creative. Since her hair was pulled back her ensemble including the ruffle detailing (Ashi Studio Fall 2015) was able to receive more focus. If you are ever wearing an outfit that has some intricate details it is best to wear your hair in a simple fashion otherwise the two will be competing for attention.

Many women who have decided to go “natural” often wonder what hairstyles are available to them that will make the transition more bearable. One style that can not be overlooked is locs aka dreadlocks. To get started with this hairstyle hair length does come into play. If your hair is longer you can incorporate more of a braided look. Moreover, if your tresses are rather short than it will be best to use single twists when fashioning your locs.
Now, just because you are going natural it does not mean that you will have absolutely no upkeep. We shall repeat that one more time LOL, there will be some maintenance involved even though this hairstyle is low key. Natural hair still needs attention and some tender loving care. Continue to wash and deep condition tresses when necessary. Also, apply a good hair oil to keep the scalp healthy and hair growing. Need some hair loc inspiration? Keep scrolling:

Today, it is the sassy actress against the singing siren! Who will reign supreme in the hair down-to-there realm? Let’s just break down the hair look in all it’s glory so that a winner may be crowned.
This one is going to be a toughie because the hairstyle in question looks great on both beauties. Rihanna chose wear her sleek tresses in a jet black color with some strands tucked behind one ear. Keke on the other hand added a little more dimension thanks to some nicely placed highlights.
It literally came down to one vote over here, but the winner is KeKe Palmer! As much as we love Rihanna has a raven beauty, Palmer’s extra flair put her over the top. Moreover, as one team member of 1966 put it, “Keke’s edges are just laid!”
Take a closer look at both hairstyle versions for yourself:

We received a lot of response in regards to a previous post that delved into how to remove dye once it’s come into contact with skin. If you have ever experienced or encountered this situation you already know that it is not any fun. You can rinse yourself silly and the hair dye will remain right where it’s landed.
Last time, we had mentioned that using toothpaste can help to resolve this hair color issue. If you do decide to take the toothpaste route make sure that you are using a non-gel form. Nevertheless, we mentioned that this topic is being revisited, so what new light can be shed on this topic?
Recently, we did a little testing with the baking soda method. We had heard about it through a hair care professional but was still skeptical. Therefore, we decided to do a quick experiment to put our skepticism to rest once and for all.
During our experiment we focused on removing hair color stains that had attached themselves around the hairline as if you had forgot to apply Vaseline in order to stop the dye from running. We combined baking soda and dish detergent and stirred until the two ingredients formed a paste. The paste was then vigorously brushed onto the hair color skin stains using a toothbrush.
What was the results of the baking soda method? The hair color stains were removed proving that this hair fix truly is effective. The skin was left clean appearing as though no stain had been there before. Now we will say that we had to seriously put some elbow into it but the baking soda & dish detergent did their jobs.
