Hair tutorial: Rhianna inspired classy updo.

Hair tutorial inspired by rhianna.

Step 1: Clip your bangs out of the way. Take a section from you crown, apply on some teasing spray and tease random sections of the crown. Take your time teasing, tease ALOT:)

Step # 2: After you have teased your hair you wil notice that its very frizzy, so to tame the frizz take a hair brush and smooth out the teased hair pieces.

Step 3: Bring your hair into a side ponytail. OPTIONAL: Take some hairspray and spray it all over your hair for extra hold.

Step 4: Now its time to style the fringe. (Were going to style the bangs.)

Step # 5: Tease the roots with the help of some working spray, and just tease your bangs. And you should now have a "Bop" in your bangs. If your bangs are really long, then bobby pin the sides down onto your hair.

Step# 6: Now loop your ponytail backwards and pin it down.

AND BRAVO YOU HAVE FINISHED.

This is what inspired this hair tutorial.

How to: French tip manicure

Hey guys today im back with a nail tutorial...so keep on reading further if you would like to know how to get perfect french tip manicures at NO COST:)

1. Give yourself a manicure, if you dont know how i posted a blogpost the other day on how to give your self a salon manicure.

2. After you have preped your nails apply on a base coat, im using maybeline salon expert base and top coat.

3. Apply on your nude colour any nude colour will do.

4. Now there is many ways you can apply your white tip and im going to share three ways with you.

- you can put a piece of clear tape on your smile line so when you apply the white nail polish it will go on top of the tape instead of on your nail which would create an unwanted design.

- You can apply on the white nail polish free hand and if you see that it doesn't look straight then simply take a brush dip it in some nail polish remover and wipe of the excess nail polish to make a straight white tip.

- If you have long nails with a long tip, then you can just take your nail polish and apply it on your natural tip. (Just follow your smile line to create more of a natural look.)

5. Apply on a top coat to prevent chipping and your finished:)

If you have any questions please feel free to leave a comment.

How to give yourself a salon manicure

Before i get started, please note that i do have a giveaway going on at the moment scroll down until you find a blog post titled "CONTEST".

Lets get started with our manicure:)

1. Remove any nailpolish from nails using nail polish remover

2.Wash hands with soap and take a bowl of warm water and dip your fingers in it. This will soften your nails and the cuticles. Leave them in the bowl for about ten minutes.

3.Trim nails to your desired size and file them in one direction. If you want squared tips then file straight across.

4.Apply any cuticule oil or olive oil to your cuticles and massage that all over your nails. Let the oil rest for about 2-3 minutes.

5. use a cloth and wipe of the excess oil. clean out any dirt under your nails. Using a cuticle pusher push your cuticles back GENTLEY.

6. Apply on any type of hand cream to your hands, and wrap your entire hadnd in a plastick bag to keep the moisture in. After three minutes remove the bag. Take a cotton swab and wipe of any cream left.

7. Apply on a base coat, do three swipes for each nail. next take a solid nail colour and pain your nails as you normally would.

BRAVO:) Your finished, you just got yourself a salon manicure at NO COST. Do this once a week and you should have natural looking long healthy nails.

Alright i'll talk to you guys later. Please become a follower:)

Take a few hair pieces from any side of your hair and pin them back with bobby pins. ( LOOK at the picture below selena has her hair pined up on the left side.)
