Photo Shoot!
As some of you know, I just moved to Seattle, Washington to get a new outlook on life and hair. So far, I've been having a really great time, doing hair & make-up for weddings and working at a barbershop! I still fly into L.A. every 6-8 weeks to take care of my Beverly Hills clientele. Before I left for Seattle, I did hair for a photo shoot with a really talented team! Here are the final shots:

Good Day LA's Style File - "Stop Staring" by Alicia Estrada
Good Day LA did a fabulous Style File segment on the one-and-only Alicia Estrada and her clothing line, Stop Staring! I was privileged enough to style hair again for Estrada's clothing line, along with Jeffery Jagged! This morning, we had a 5:30am call time at Cristophe Salon in Beverly Hills. After prepping all of the models and the amazing Alicia herself, everyone headed over to Fox Studios to film live at Good Day LA. Here is some behind-the-scenes footage of our day!

Top 10 Ways to Look Fabulous!
Curious on how to add style to your look without over doing it? Want some extra sex appeal? Check out these small simple details that will have you walking with confidence and turn some heads!
1. Hair is on the top on my list! Whether your hair is in a messy bun, braided, has a natural wave, or out of the shower straight, make sure that you maintenance your hair often to keep it shiny and healthy! To do that, here are a few tips on how to take care of your hair:
a. Brush your scalp and hair with a paddle brush nightly. For curly/frizzy hair: out of the shower when it's wet is the best time. Read Tangled for more details!
b. Eating healthy and taking a daily multi-vitamin. Salmon, almonds, flaxseed and avocado are all healthy for your hair, body and mind! Biotin is a special vitamin for hair and nail growth.
c. Using the correct shampoo and conditioner specifically for your hair type. If you need professionals advice, ask me anytime! Heiressofhair@gmail.com
d. A fresh haircut, even a trim, will relieve each individual strand from the drama of split ends and chemical processing, leaving your hair more shiny and full of life!
2. Nail Polish- Polished nails always add style and freshness to your look. Diana and Titania at Cristophe Salon, Beverly Hills offer 'The Bomb' manicure & pedicures. Occasionally, when I go to a random place to have my nails done, the polish job is usually not so great and it doesn't last. Typically, after one week, my cuticles looks worse than ever! The girls at Cristophe take the extra time to really make sure that your nails are cleaned up well so that polish can last all week! I've never had a better one!
3. Lip Gloss or just a shiny moisturizing lip balm is just as important as mascara. No one likes cracked, dry lips. Smooth those babies out with something shiny and maybe even sparkly.
4. Mascara always brightens up the eyes. There are all different great mascaras out there, L'oréal's brand of mascaras you can get at any drugstore have lots of great choices. You just have to find the one that suits you the best! I love playing around with colored mascaras! My favorite is YSL Blue Mascara, its a sweet little surprise when someone is up close, and checking you out!
5. Add something Designer or Vintage. Some of us can't break the bank with designer accessories, but vintage is just as great! A handbag or some really cute shoes are always a great way to add style!
6. That brings me to shoes. Heels or Stylish Flats make a huge difference in what you are wearing. If you want to dress your look up, along with your figure, wear high heels.
a. Heels scream sex appeal and contorts your stance for a more playful, feminine shape. Not to mentions a cute tush! Don't fool yourself, make sure they are easy and comfortable to walk in!
b. Flats are great too! Casual, comfortable, and for some outfits it doesn't look like you are trying too hard. If you are trying to keep it stylish look, stay away from flip flops unless you are going to the beach!
7. Tailored Eyebrows is key to shaping your face and eyes for a more manicured and sexy look! Jermaine, Thierry, and Thomas at Cristophe Salon, Beverly Hills are great for maintaining your shapely brows, not to mention they have a whole make-up department! Check them out!
8. Jewelry- I love jewelry, but it's important to not over do it. Accent pieces are the best way to go:
a. A chunky ring with a dainty bracelet
b. A statement necklace or broach with stud earrings
c. Dangly earrings are enough in themselves.
9. Sunglasses are stylish, they protect your eyes from the sun or hide sleepless hours from the night before, but please, PLEASE, only wear them outdoors and in the daytime.
10. Define your own personal style. Try to make it your own, you don't want to copy cat too much. It might take a while to search for the things that best suit you, so look around in all different types of shops. Be careful not to over accessorize or be to matchy, matchy. Let your creativity come through to develop you own person style!

Do-it Yourself
It's simple to get a stylish look at home with a curling iron. This look in particular will take you fifteen minutes once you get it down.
1. Heat up your curling iron. The bigger the iron, the looser your curl will be.
2. Have a big clip handy to section your hair out of the way while you curl.
3. Start in the back by clipping half of your hair up on top of your head.
4. Take a section about 2-inches apart.
5. Wrap hair around the iron- if you wrap just the ends, the curl will be softer. If you wrap up the whole section your hair will be very curly. You can wrap in either direction, if you are curling in synchronized sections it will look more organized.
6. Take it section by section- it doesn't have to be perfect, it's better messy.
7. For a more modern look, when you get to the front, curl the front layers so the curl moves away from your face.
8. After you are done, spray it with a light hair spray- I recommend Cristophe's Shaping Spray
9. Brush your hair. I prefer a boar bristle brush, the bristles are all very close together which smoothes the hair and creates a shiny wave.
10. Spray a little more hairspray for extra hold and... Voilà! A quick and easy way to have chic hair before you run out the door! Don't be afraid, just try it!
