SpicyCandyDC: hair

A little over a month ago, while getting my hair done with my favorite stylist Richard of PR Partners in McLean, we got to talking about blowdrying hair at home, and how difficult it is to recreate the look you get at a salon or blow out bar on your own. Poor Richard had to hear me whine about my inability to perfectly blow dry my own hair, and my long life battles and bad experiences with most blowdryers. I was especially disappointed by the latest one I had purchased a few months back - an infrared with a hefty price tag that promised to be amazing, but wasn't. It damaged my hair in a matter of weeks and never left it looking smooth and shiny. So to my pleasant surprise, Richard proceeded to inform me that PR Partners had just began selling the Bludry blowdryer along with styling brushes. Naturally I couldn't wait to get rid of the infrared and try these new products. At first I didn't think anything of the brushes because to me, a brush is just a brush. Boy was I wrong. Not only is the actual blowdryer amazing (ionic, light, easy to use, and comes with a free diffuser), but the brushes really help with that perfectly polished finish. The large round brush (rock your body) gets my frizzy ends looking shiny and gives my hair so much body. I also really love the Boar Bristle Paddle Brush (work it) I can brush my already blow-dried hair the next day and it leaves it looking like I just got it done all over again - without having to re-do it. Truly a miracle for those of you who understand what it's like to brush out curly hair the next day, even after it's been blow-dried. I'm so thankful to Richard and PR Partners for introducing me to these new products. I was even able to have a perfect blow out in humid Bahamas weather when I took my vacation a little while back - remember this photo? So all in all, I truly recommend any of you who are looking to upgrade your styling routine to try these out. I've gotten tons of compliments in the past month+ and most people think I get it professionally done. So, I'm sorry blow out bars, but I've learned the trick of the trade and will be saving myself a lot of cash money in the new year! ;) You can purchase these products at your favorite PR Partners location - for a complete list click HERE. Happy Styling!

Hello and happy Thursday my beautiful friends ;)

I am overly excited with Spring Invasion! In just a couple of weeks, we will be blessed with warmer weather, and with that comes Vibrant Fashionistas getting their “spring” on! Now this leads me to a very important subject, something that adds spice and pizzazz to any outfit! Yes, fashion lovers, we are talking about HAIR! I feel the itch of creativity and want a new hair style for myself ! It’s time for some hair fever!

I’m obsessed with long wavy hair! As you all can see and imagine, it has taken me years to grow it as long as I have it now! With all the hard work and waiting, I still want to switch it up this spring and cut off a few inches. I was looking for inspiration and wanted to share some wonderful pics of my fav hair styles. REMEMBER, hair can be your greatest accessory! Katya and I always talk about how different an outfit can look with only putting your hair up or putting it to the side in a pony tail. I know it's time consuming, girls but TRUST me it’s worth the effort and the results will complete your look!

We are currently in love with the trendy hair accessories that spring is bringing us; the bows and flowers are def something we go crazy for! The romantic look is back, and let’s faces it, we all want to have that dreamy look, don’t we? Be out of the ordinary, be inspired… go play around with your hair this season, it's fun and we all know that girls just want to have fun!
