Fall Hair Trends 2011

So being in the hair biz, I have to be on top of the new hair trends. Here are a few that are going to be hot this fall !

Red and Auburn... I know what your thinking, so last fall, true.. But the trend is sticking and looks amazing. If you are looking for an edgy change for fall this is the way to go.

The Choppy Bob.. Now this to me is inspired by the California surfer girl. This looks amazing on Blond hair that has wave to it. Its very easy and fun!

Ombre.. I am still obsessed with this trend. With this you can go for a drastic change or something subtle, this trend can work on anybody.

Product Review: bareMinerals High Shine Eyecolor

MIRACLE PRODUCT: bareMinerals High Shine Eyecolor ($16)

THEY SAY: The long-lasting vibrant pigments offer high-intensity sheen and go on velvety-smooth. Plus, the cushion-tip wand allows easy, on-the-go application

Pros: The Gold Medal color was definitely intense. I was able to build up to a more dramatic hue. It glided on really well. I also like that it comes in a variety of shades.
Cons: It is super pigmented, but the shimmer fell all over my face. It was not easy to get it off my foundation. The dramatic eye color is better suited for nighttime.

Bottom Line: This highly pigmented shimmer is a bit much for the daytime, not to mention the messy application just might make you late to work in the morning. Stick to rocking the intense sheen at night, and make sure to apply pigment before you do your foundation for easier clean up :)
