My New fav Hair Tong the Vidal Sassoon Easy Wrap
Last week I somehow forgot to pack my hair tong for a shoot luckily I had enough time to get myself to the nearest Clicks to buy one and still get to my shoot. Staring at me from all the hair tongs was the new Vidal Sasson easy wrap tong that looked like it would do the trick. I am always on the look out for a tong that will give ntaural looking hair and creates a subtle wave. Its unlike any other tong that I have seen as it has a daiamond cermaic wand which makes it so easy to use. There is a on/off switch button so its on it gets hot and you are good to go.

Bridal Hair Ideas
Its that time for me to think about what I am going to have my hair look like when I renewal in March. I am pretty much going for another wedding vibe with a new dress because why not plus I am turning 40 so needed something to really look forward to.

The Spring/Summer 15 Hair Trends
Not only is it key to change up your makeup for this spring/summer there are also some really cool hair trends to try out too. Yesterday on my beauty shoot for Elle there were literally 18 hair changes covering all trends and it got me to thinking to share some of the trends that I am totally loving for this season. Some are easy to create yourself all you need is some product and a tong and some you may need to get yourself a hairstylist to work the look for you especially as we almost in the festive party season.
