┼ 6 :: 13 ┼

#6 of the 13 HAIR CHALLENGES FOR 2013 is BY FAR my fave.
Inspired by Herve Leger's spring '13 casual-chic half-braided style seen at NYFW.

I wish for someday my hair to be as beautiful as that first featured mane above.  Surprisingly this half-braided treat works on most braidable hairlengths.   If you can't french braid very well, simply pull your solo braid across as far as it can go.  Secure with bobby pins with plenty of hair from the other side to veil your ends.  Mine came out much better the second time I tried it, treating it more like a cornrow than a french.  But here's a pic of the first until I do it again!

How have you been liking the CHALLENGE so far?

Any looks your looking to try?

See you soon!

Happily ever (before and) after: Abby's Updated Ombré ♕

Dears and dolls, meet Abby.

SHUTUP, gorgeous always no matter what anytime UGH.

So I'd been wanting to overhaul darling Abby's old and overgrown ombré for quite some time.   The newest upgrade for ombré lovers is all about the blending and transition of color.  I'm dying for less drama between the roots and ends.  It can still be a strong, trendy look...just not so obvious.

AFTER:

Foils: 9.32 30 vol, lightener at hairline.

Gloss with: DiaRichess 2 parts 9.03, 1 part 9.3, 1 part 8
