How to Get the "Tousled Wavy" Effect for Your Hair

The Tousled Wavy hairstyle has been trending for quite a while now. Some of us may think that we cannot style our hair this way because it is either too short, too thin, or we are just not that fortunate to have a hair stylist at home with us 24/7.

What if I told you that there is an easy way to achieve the tousled wavy hairstyle at home without the need of a hair stylist? It is possible, thank you to the editors of  Total Beauty.

Total Beauty has simplified this hair style process:

Step 1 = Prep Hair in shower by using products that will moisturize hair and control frizz.

Step 2 = Towel dry hair. Now you need some product: (1) if your hair is curly- use a little bit of gel (2) if your hair is straight or fine- use a volumizing mouse through out hair.

Step 3 = Blow Dry hair. You want to flip your over, use a diffuser (if you have one)if not just use your normal hair dryer. You want to make sure your hair is partially dry - Total Beauty recommends hair should be 85% dry only -

Okay, these are the basic three (3) steps for every hair length. Please click on the appropriate photo below for your hair length to see the remaining detailed steps for finishing the Tousled Hair Look.

For Short Hair:

Step Four - Six

For Medium Length Hair:

Steps Four and Five

Step Six thru Nine

For Long Hair:

Steps Four thru Seven

Now It's Your Turn: Do you think you can achieve this look by following these easy steps?

How to get the Violet Femme Fatal Look

Wearing bold colors on eyelids is not the only trend noticed on the runway this year. Another eye beauty makeup trend is using hues of pink, purples and lilacs blended together for a smoldering seductive stare.

We Love Wu! Jason Wu for Target That Is!

Have you heard the latest news happening at Target this month? If not, I have only one question for you: "where the H-E-double-L have you been hiding?"

During the past few months, Target has made changes to the types of apparel they are marketing to us, the consumers. If I say so myself, these changes were well over due and are much appreciated!

One of the NEW designer fashions seen recently was the introduction of the Missoni line. Once the Missoni pieces hit their racks, Target stores were flooded with shoppers, their online store site crashed several times, not to mention, Missoni pieces were completely SOLD OUT within the beginning hours of the introduction sale!

Unfortunately, I was among those who were left out in the dust to rot. I tried logging into my Target online account: NO MISSONI. Drove to my favorite Target store, which is less that a mile from our condo, NADA MISSONI. EVERYTHING WAS GONE!

Well, this may happen to me once BUT it is not going to happen to me twice!

On February 5th, which is only 4 days away, Target will now introduce us to the styling wisdom of Jason Wu. According to Targets' advertising, Jason Wu apparel, "signature are clean lines ans smart details."

To give us an idea, look at these pieces:

If you like these pieces, then this Sunday, February 5th, try to make your way to a Target near you, or if fighting the masses is not your thing, then shop Jason Wu online.
