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.

Beauty: Making Waves and Braids and Messy Buns....

Things-We-Heart spotted them for fall, and they are still around for spring.
Rough waves!!

This amazingly stylish and simple to achieve look is all over the runways for Spring 2010, and we are happy to see it stick around.

TRICK OF THE TRADE: To create the wavy style at Chanel, stylist McKnight wrapped sections of hair loosely around a large-barrel curling iron and held them there for only a second, then brushed through the curls once they'd cooled to relax them a bit.

Model Abbey Lee seems to be the queen of this messy but not in an overly "bed-head- 90's" hairstyle. Isn't she adorable? We are kind of girl- crushing on her right now.


But, we really are excited about the new trends for messy and easy to do hair...
And you should be too!

The whole key to the rough waves look is to have them be just messy enough, with out being frizzy.

Our favorite way to tame the frizz and make the most of your natural wave (If you are lucky enough to have one) is to wash and then towel dry your hair, then work about a quarter size amount of Moroccan Oil through your hair from the ends up.

We found that if you twist your hair around your finger in little sections and let those ringlets air-dry then you can run your fingers through and get the perfect rough wave.

If you need more wave then you get that way, then use your flat iron and give your ends a little twist.

Remember to keep it messy and sexy, you don't want it to look like you spent hours on your hair and you don't have to.

For this really cute - hippie kind of crimped look you are going to have to do a little more work. Neil Moody who did this hair for the Ruffian show say here is how you do it.

"First, Moodie prepped dry hair with a heat-protecting moisturizing spray and rough-dried to encourage natural texture. Next, he twisted 15 to 20 small braids around the crown, starting a couple inches from the roots and leaving an inch at the ends. To add grit and volume, Moodie lavished plaits with a generous amount of Bb. Hair Powder and flat-ironed the length of them. Braids were then undone, locks were fluffed and teased at the crown, and Bb. Shine spray was misted over tresses to add sheen and movement."

Here is another hair trend from Alexander Wang (Hearts!!) spring 2010 runway show that we are really in love with!

Delicious-lovely-long-messy-loose-side-braids!!!!



Oh to have that long long hair! But who would ever know or care if you thickened up your braid a little with some extensions!?


Besides, all over the runways we are seeing braids and messy buns with things wrapped up in them.

Oscar de la Renta Spring 2010: Country milkmaid braids with multi-hued ribbons

We have always hearted these crowns of braids, and the colored yarn just makes them that much more special.

We were also super excited by this... Beads, yarn and ribbon strewn through hair and all swept up in a beautiful low and messy twisted chignons!

Can someone have a wedding or cocktail party soon so we can try this one out?
It looks... LOOKS, like we may just be able to pull this style off on our own at home.

You can get step-by-step instructions here, if you want to try it too!

And needless to say, because we love ballerinas so, so much and therefore anything and everything to do with ballerinas... You can bet that we are rocking the ballerina bun right this instant.

Charlotte Ronson had the models hair pulled back in classic, but slightly messy ballerina buns for her Spring 2010 show.




What would we do without the popularity of messy hair? We have never been the girls who are super great at the intricate and time consuming super styled hairdo's of the past.
So messy buns, rough waves and woven braids, our hippie-girl-tom-boy hearts rejoice at the sight of you!

Beauty: She Bangs!!

So I will admit that I got truly fixated on the style and look of this girl band the Plastiscines when I saw them in my Nylon magazine this month... 

Now I have not head them yet.. So I am judging this book by it's cover... But what a cute cover! 

(Plastiscines) 

Four really cute French girls with super cute style and um... Yeah they all have super adorable French girl bangs! So of course, I had to get mine chopped A.S.A.P! 

(Plastiscines)

Bangs are one of those looks I go back and forth on, back and forth, back and forth. Bangs have dumbfounded me for my whole life, because sometimes bangs can make you feel either like a 6 year old, or when they are just right, they can make you feel like a super sexy sex kitten a'la Bridget Bardot... And you can't get much better then that! So, how to solve this mystery of getting perfect bangs? Lets look to some Bang Queens for hope and inspiration. 

Bridget Bardot is forever the queen of the sexy, loose and fringy bangs. 

If her hair was up or down, she really knew how to work those bangs. 

Another icon of bangs and all around cutness is Jane Birkin... Really with the knee socks? Jane Birkin's bangs added just that litle touch of sexy to her school boy look. 

UH-OH! Looks like we just found a new style idol... I want every part of her outfit above.. Birkin wore her bangs more blunt then Bardot, a look that is captured by the adorable Liv Tyler. 

When you look like LIv Tyler, it is hard to go wrong, but she really looks adorable with her straight blunt bangs and silky black hair. Her bangs just make he big blue eyes pop that much more. 

Now for all the little pixie loving girls reading... Those of you who were blessed with delicate bone structure, you may be able to pull off this look. 

Yes, it is the Louise Brooks Bob, the originator and creator of this little pixie cut with the short blunt bangs... This hairdo was so racy in Louise's day that fathers used to lock their daughters inside the house so they wouldn't run to the beauty parlor and cut their lovely locks! 

Moving on to our generations Bang Queen. The lovely and painfully adorable Zooey Deschanel. 

Here we have a perfectly scientific graph showing that Zooey has her bang to face ratio mastered. 

(Wolfgnards) 

Equally cute when she wears them messy with her hair down, 

as she is when she wears them sleek and sexy in a really cute and fancy up-do... 

Miss, Deschanel is not F*&%King around with this bang master thing... We have a lot to learn from this raven haired beauty. 

Here is a fun game... Better with or with out bangs? 

Some of Hollywoods cuties give us the choice... 

Hillary Duff? I say better with! Takes her away from kiddo into sultry. 

Rachel Bilson? Neither of these photos do her justice.. She is a winner either way. 

We super crush on her with or without! 

Goldie Hawn, Woopsie, I mean Kate Hudson? I say better without, she needs to keep her cute hippie parted in the center style. 

Now if you were to ask hair stylist to the stars.. (and to Miss Me,) 

Mrs. Ruby Wieser-Surry, she will be sure to shake her head at how many people came in with this magazine tucked under their arm asking for both the bangs and hair color of Kate Moss on this W cover. 

And like Ruby patiently explained to me for the one millionth time, even if you cut your hair exactly like Kate Moss, and have the exact shade of blonde as Kate Moss... You are not going to LOOK like Kate Moss... But it is worth a try right? 

Have fun, experiment with your hair... Remember thats why God invented bobby pins!
