Sherri is charming and very easy to talk to.  She willingly shared details about a wide range of hair care techniques and products, specifically some of the Rusk products and amazing color line. By the end of our phone interview I was very impressed with Sherri’s passion for her work as an educator and her boundless energy.

Magazines and widely quoted as an industry expert in the international media, Sherri is a recognized source for all things beauty.  The highly respected beauty expert works tirelessly and creates gorgeous results.

Mid-Back Of The Head, Center And Side Ponytails

Thursday, April 7th, 2011

Ultimately it’s always best to position the base of your ponytail where it’s most comfortable for you.

There are many locations along the head where a ponytail base can be located.   No rule exists against wearing a ponytail right at the hairline.

In fact, Suzanne Somers used to wear her blonde ponytail from Three’s Company back from her hairline and to one side.

It became her trademark look even though it was due to her hair getting burned requiring her to wear her quirky pony.

Men often prefer to wear their ponytails low on the head near the nape of the neck. (more…)

Long Haired Pia Toscano’s Shocking Elimination From American Idol

Thursday, April 7th, 2011

\n

From the moment I first heard Pia Toscano sing I had perpetual goosebumps.\\u00a0 I had no doubt in my mind that Pia was going to wind up in the top five.\\n\n

But after tonight’s American Idol (AI) elimination all bets are off in a season which has been filled with shocking twists and turns starting with Casey Abram’s sudden illness and then elimination.\\n\n

(American Idol Final Nine – Pia Toscano is in the center, front row – Fox\\\/TV – All Rights Reserved)\\n\n

Abrams was saved by the AI judges in a move which was deemed to be risky since his save was so early in the season.\\n\n

Indeed, that save has come to bite the AI judges in the rear.\\u00a0 Pia Toscano had long lush raven tresses which had a blinding shimmer.\\u00a0 She was beautiful and had a body that wouldn’t stop.\\n\n

Pia Toscano could also sing although she was constantly dinged for only singing ballads.\\u00a0 On Wednesday night she broke with her ballad tradition.\\u00a0 Afterall, the night was dedicated to rock n roll and Pia embraced the opportunity to sing Tina Turner’s ‘River Deep Mountain High.’ (more…)

Hair How To: Questions You Must Ask Before Getting Any Cut Or Color

Monday, April 4th, 2011

It’s common knowledge in the hair world is that the devil is in the details.  What does this mean?

Quite simply that before you spontaneously pop into your hairstylist’s chair and whimsically ask for a sizzling new hair cut and dramatic new color you need to ask the following questions:

1.  What will it take to maintain this cut and/or color?
2.  How often will I need to do root touch up?
3.  How often will I need to have the cut trimmed or reshaped?
4.  Will this haircut work with my face shape?
5.  Will the color complement my skin and eye tone?
6.  Does this haircut work for his hair type, texture and current condition?
7.  Does this haircut add or subtract age and/or pounds?
8.  How difficult will it be to duplicate the styling techniques at home?
9.  If I decide I don’t like it how hard would it be to return to my current hair color and/or style?
10.  How long will it take the hair cut to grow out and what styles can I transition to?
11.  Are there new products I will need to buy to maintain the color or create the new styles?
12.  What is the best features of the color and/or cut?
13.  What are the worst features of the new color and/or cut?
14.  If you were me, would you recommend this cut and or color or something else and why?

Adrianne Palicki Spotted Filming Wonder Woman TV Show In LA

Saturday, April 2nd, 2011

Actress Adrianne Palicki has been sighted in Los Angeles on Hollywood Boulevard filming the new “Wonder Woman” TV show (developed by David E. Kelly) she has picked to star in.  She was spotted in full Wonder Woman costume on the 29th and 30th of March.

As I previously blogged, Palicki is doing Wonder Woman as a brunette even though she previously was a fan favorite on “Friday Night Lights” as a platinum blonde.

Although “Friday Night Lights” has ceased production, the final season was exclusively shown on Direct TV.  The final season will be repeated on the regular network.

The character of Wonder Woman has been around since 1941 when the Amazonian character was introduced in a comic strip by William Mouten Marsten.

Already there has been some fan outcry about the new TV show.  When initial images of Palicki in the Wonder Woman costume was shown fans criticized the first costumer as being too cheesy.

They also said the boots and pants looked cheap and more like a Halloween costume than a major crime fighting woman.  Since that inital outcry Palicki’s costume has been changed to look more Amazonian.

Hair How To: Adrianne Palicki’s Sleek Shiny Bone Straight Long Hairstyle

Friday, April 1st, 2011

Adrianne Palicki has experienced a dramatic hair color journey during her acting career.

Palicki (born May 6, 1983) is best known for her role as the platinum blonde Tyra Collette on the NBC television series Friday Night Lights.  She was a series regular for the first three seasons of the acclaimed show.  Palicki left the series to appear in films, but returned to appear in the final two episodes of the series.

When she returned for the last two episodes of Friday Night Lights we came back as a dark cherry kissed brunette.  It was hard to believe it was the same Tyra Collette.  What happened to her platinum blonde tresses?

When Palicki left to co-star opposite Lucas Black in “Legion” her role called for her to be a brunette.  She also starred in Fox/TV’s “Lone Star” in which her hair was also dark chocolate.  Sadly “Lone Star” was canceled after just two episodes but she kept the dark hued tresses.

On February 16, 2011, it was announced that a still sultry brunette hue Palicki was selected to portray Wonder Woman in David E. Kelley’s adaptation for NBC.  It appears her days as a blonde are over.  At least for now. (more…)

American Idol Sends Naima Adedapo And Thia Megia Packing

Thursday, March 31st, 2011

\n

In a dramatic gesture last week by the American Idol (AI) judges Casey Abrams was sparred final elimination.\\u00a0 Abrams was as shocked as everyone else that Randy Jackson, Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler used their one save of the season to keep Abrams.\\u00a0 Ironically their save was relatively early in the AI season.\\n\n

On Wednesday’s show a sober Casey Abrams who has had a haircut and a shave was told by Jennifer that she didn’t regret saving Abrams and was happy she did so.\\u00a0 The audience seems to love Abrams but it was the audience votes that put him at the very bottom last week.\\n\n

As a result of Abrams save last week, two AI contestants had to go home this week.\\u00a0 The women continued to fall on the sword with a dreadlocked Naima Adedapo and a long haired Thia Megia being sent home.\\n\n

Although I was sad to see two more women go, I wasn’t surprised at all after watching the March 30th performances.\\u00a0 Adedapo applied a reggae twist to an Elton John classic song which the judges didn’t go wild over.\\u00a0 Megia also left a lot to be desired with her rendition of a John son.\\u00a0 America made the correct choices.\\u00a0 I actually was surprised Adedapo lasted as long as she did.

How To Hair: Victoria Justice’s Barely There Waves

Thursday, March 31st, 2011

When it comes to her long, naturally straight chocolate brown hair Victoria Justice is not fussy.  She told Nickutopia “I’m not one of those people that spends a lot of money on beauty products. I like going to drug stores and getting that kind of stuff. I blow dry my bangs with a round brush! You don’t want your hair to look flat, but at the same time, I like when it looks really natural!”

Teen superstar Victoria is up against Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez and Miranda Cosgrove at the April 2nd Kids Choice Awards, but in some circles the  star of  Nickelodeon’s Victorious is considered the one with the very best hair.  Of course others would vehemently disagree.

Although Victoria alternates between bone straight strands and soft beachy waves, her own natural tresses are medium thick and naturally straight.

Hair How To – Step By Step – Recreate Victoria’s Hairstyle

To achieve Victoria’s barely there waves follow the steps below:

1.  Cleanse your hair in the shower using your preferred methodology and hair products which are best for your hair type, texture, length and current condition.
2.  Rinse well and apply a light moisturizing rinse out conditioner from the ears down to the ends.  Use fingers and hair friendly comb to detangle.  (more…)

Rihanna Proves Redheads Are Hot And Spicey

Wednesday, March 30th, 2011

A bright tomato hued Rihanna is on the April cover of the current issue of Rolling Stone (RSM) Magazine strutting her stuff.\u00a0 She showed her naughty side in the interview revealing “I like to be spanked.\u00a0 Being tied up is fun.\u00a0 I like to keep it spontaneous.”\n

In light of her comments, including the desire to receive racy photos which you’ll have to read about to get the exact quotes, Rihanna should definitely remain a redhead.\u00a0 It seems to suit her sexy side best.\n

The Barbados born singer\u00a0 who wears what appears to be a long red crimped wig, draws the line at serious stuff revealing “sometimes whips and chains can be overly planned – you gotta stop, get the whip from the drawer downstairs.\u00a0 I’d rather have him use his hands.”\n

Her comments in RS have triggered questions about her duo “I like the way it hurts” with Eminem in their hit “Love the Way You Lie.”\u00a0 She also expressed a desired to be dominated by telling the magazine “Being submissive in the bedroom is really fun,” she said. “You get to be a little lady, to have somebody be macho and in charge …. That’s fun to me.\u201d\n

Ironically her saucy bedroom revelations and her full head of shocking red hair have set the media abuzz at the same time ex-love Chris Brown is dealing with his own hair\u00a0 transformation and bad boy behaviors.\u00a0 The R&B singer first went to a shocking hue of platinum blonde and then after an altercation at ABC’s Good Morning America, he went to his trademark dark locks in time for his live performance on Dancing With The Stars (DWTS) on Tuesday evening.

Sarah Steele Lets Her Natural Curls Shine In The Good Wife

Wednesday, March 30th, 2011

In a previous blog I shared that one of my guilty pleasures is the film “Spanglish” which was released in 2004.

Although the critics panned it, I love the film and all the various actors including Sarah Jane Steele (born July 24, 1988) who plays Bernice, Sandler’s awkward teen-aged daughter.

Sarah beat out thousands of young hopeful females to win the role.  She was fabulous as the lovable teen dealing with her mother’s constant lack of approval due to her weight, frizzy curly hair and overall appearance.

Her mother, Deborah, played by Tea Leoni was blonde, beautiful, athletic and reed thin.  She also had long, bone straight tresses, which were always perfectly coiffed.

Much to her mother’s disappointment Bernie physically and emotionally takes after her father, John who has bushy natural curls, full eyebrows and a healthy weight.  Sarah Steele was spectacular in the role.  Every time I see the movie I want to reach through the screen and give her a hug. (more…)
