Beauty IS the Beast...



Wax on... Wax off... Wax on... Wax off...

For centuries now... Ok, well at least since women got to stop wearing stockings with their swimsuits, women have been fighting the losing battle against body hair.
Why it is that women have to subject ourselves to numerous kinds of inhumane and humiliating rituals to rid our bodies of unwanted hair,

While dudes get to walk around like THIS...

Well, that is just another one of the mysteries of life.

Listen, we are not complaining... Well, maybe we are a little, but in all honesty we do it not just because the fellas like it, we do it because we like it.

We would bet a million dollars,
(*disclaimer we are not REALLY betting a million dollars maybe a million Doll-Hairs)
That every girl reading this thinks these legs are sexier then these legs.

We pluck and wax and shave and laser away at out selves, because it makes us feel good.

We are all for women's liberation and liberated women should feel powerful and sexy, so do what you gotta do to get there.

And sometimes the road to pretty is filled with a whole lot of ugly.

Your Va-jay-jay is a treasure, so please treat is as such.
You should NEVER fuck around with a cheap bikini wax, and please for the love of all that is sacred...

Do NOT let your friends give you a home-kit, unprofessional Honeypot wax while eating pretzels and drinking soda.

Better to have hair like this woman's spilling out the sides of your bikini then to mistakenly tear and wound your Coochie, you just can't put a bandaid on that girls... My goodness, teenagers these days!

Take your ass to one of the many number of professional and reputable salons in your area and take care of your business.

Now, we know that your Kitty isn't the only fur-ball you have to contend with.
It is very hard to keep up with the rapid growth of that annoying hair under your arms.

Sure you could just let it all fly free, but really.... No one is buying that "sexy in France" shit. Well, maybe some people are buying it but not us.


We love all of these women... But it says something that the photos taken of them with their hairy pits showing caused such a stir.

Exfoliate, shave.... Exfoliate, shave....It's true it's not that much fun.. But we know you can do it. We just know it.

Here is another double standard, and just another reason to put up a picture of Edward Cullen.... We know, that is not his real name, but it is to us.

On a man unruly, unkempt brows = Sexy mo'fo

On a girl... Not so much.
We are not calling names here either, lets put it this way, Miss Me's eyebrows will never have to join the hair club for men.


So, we gotta keep at it... Pluck, wax, thread, whatever you can do to keep those brows in shape.


We personally LOVE a good eyebrow wax. Leave it to the professionals. You will look better then you can even imagine. You just can't know how important your eyebrows are to your whole overall look.

Why spend a fortune on your hair and then skimp on your brows? They are right there smack in the middle of your face for the world to see... Make them good.

And finally, last but not at all least. Every women's arch enemy, leg stubble.


The painful memory still burns of a 13 year old Miss Me being teased by her older brother...

(*Sung in the tune of ZZ Tops "Legs")

She's got legs...
With Don Johnson stubble...
Ohhhhhh, She's got legs...

Wow, did I just age myself?

The battle against stubbly legs is waged in showers and bathtubs every single day... And it will be. Until the day that quality laser hair removal is affordable and available to every girl that dares to dream.

If you can afford Laser Hair Removal now... Do it!! It is by FAR the most effective and long lasting way to keep your skin silky smooth.

If you can't start saving and until then, keep on fighting the good fight ladies.

We will leave the body hair to the fellas.

Bueno! Getting you hair done!

Nothing feels more bueno then spending the day at the salon and walking out with a beautiful new look!

We love getting our hair done. It is like a little holiday present to yourself!

Treat yourself or some one you love to that "Just stepped out of a salon feeling!"

Just step away from the box ladies... It is not worth it! Miss M has learned from experience, it takes way longer and costs way more to correct your homemade mistakes!
Hit the salon and get spoiled!
You deserve it!

P.S- Our favorite hairdressers in Los Angeles.

Random Hearts: We heart ponytails!

Wow, are ponytails not the cutest, easiest, most casual chic thing you can do with your hair? We heart them.... We wear them almost everyday.  First of all because it is so simple to throw your hair back and second because even the messiest ponytail can look like pure perfection. 

We love them loose and messy, this is a look that works on pretty much everyone.  Leave some hair loose in the front for a sexy fresh out of bed style. 

Things-We-Heart favorite Rachel Bilson, lets her messy low ponytail and nude lips take a backseat to those amazing big brown eyes of hers. 


Yup, for her first big post baby red carpet moment, Miss Ritchie wore a super sexy 1960's style side ponytail. We are super big fans of the ponytail with a fancy dress combo. Just remember to give your ponytail a little extra "Oomph" when you are taking it out on the town.  

Super beauty Molly Sims looks so great with the braided crown leading into a curly side ponytail. We are going to be practicing this one in the mirror to try and get it to look just effortless enough. (It takes a lot of effort to look that effortless!) 


Sorry, we didn't mean to do this to you first thing in the morning... Before you even have your coffee and most likely are still in your sweats.  But alien-must-not-be of our species-uber-beauty Kate Bosworth is looking like a pretty princess with this wavy middle parted low and loose ponytail. This would be such a lovely way for a bride to wear her hair. 
Hmmm Maybe Miss Me can plan a re-newing of the vows, just to do this to her hair, or maybe a nice dinner date is more realistic. 

While we are not usually fans of hair that is bigger then your bottom, if you are lucky enough to have delicate features like Kate Bekinsdale, then go ahead and puff it up! She looks super chic and easy with her high ponytail. 
Not to say all ponytails have to be all-out for us to love them, we are feeling the straight up simple pull it back off your face, pick up your toddler (or your 5 toddlers as the case may be) and head out! 



Make like the original Barbie and own that ponytail.


XOXO- Things-We-Heart
P.S- These are the best ponytail holders. Because they come in colors to match your hair & they don't snag your hair. We heart them.

Monday: Mad for Moroccan Oil!


For centuries the women of Morocco have been using Argan oil on their hair and nails to counteract the aging effects of the hot sun. Agran oil is made from the almond shaped kernals that are held within the nut like fruit of the Agarn tree. This tree ONLY grows in the South West area of Morocco called Argana. 
Well, the secret is out and now, we can all be as lucky as these ladies have always been! Our hair hearts this! 


Moroccan Oil is a unique, ultra light, non greasy formula that seals in shine, and speeds up styling time! Sounds pretty perfect to me! Plus, it smells really insanely delicious! 
Among the many, many other things Morrocan Oil is good for (Protects hair from UV damage, restores softness and shine to hair damaged by coloring and over styling, nourishes the scalp..etc.) hair stylist supreme dream, Ruby Weiser let me know that you can mix it with your hair dye to make the color richer and longer lasting! Who isn't into that?

Moroccan oils line of products includes it's original oil treatment, perfect for achieving that messy, beachy, California beauty look that is oh-so Brooke Shields in The Blue Lagoon! 


The range of products also includes Gold Glimmer Shine. Throw this little spray bottle in your bag for a quick spray of long lasting all over glow. Plus with it's UV guard, you can feel free to roll around on the beach in the sun all day a'la Helena Christensen in the Chris Isaaks Wicked Game video! 

(Click here to see Things-we-heart & Miss Me watching this video.)
But seriously, on a really long winded side note, has there ever been a sexier, more watchable video ever made? Has anyone ever been hotter then Helena in this? Because with all honesty, the Things We Heart girls are unendingly talking about her in this video, and this was made in 1990! 

Ok, sorry, we were talking about something else right, wow, just got a little side tracked for a second. We now return to our regularly scheduled post. 



We have not tried this one, but can not wait to test it out, the Moroccan Oil restorative hair mask. Apply after you wash leave on for 10 minutes and then rinse out. It is said to repair damage caused by chemicals, wind, sun and other environmental elements. And by that we hope they mean years of damage done by our trusty flat-iron! 

So Moroccan Oil, we highly recommend you go get your self some! Not only will you smell like everything that is summer, your hair will be healthy, glowing and strong. Look, if this stuff didn't work, it wouldn't have stuck around as long as say, gladiator sandals

Thank you Argan tree and the beautiful Moroccan women who put you to good use!
