Hair Wars: Tyra Versus Ciara

Hair Wars Tyra vs Ciara

One is a supermodel and the other is a world renown singer and performer. What do these two ladies have in common? Simply put, great hair. Tyra Banks and Cara have both rocked cornrows which can be a hard style to pull off successfully at times. So then, who wins the battle? With great debate we gave the win to Tyra, because everything just works from the hair to the makeup. Ciara is a very close second because those braids are executed beautifully. That’s are hair war today so who do you think wins this match up?

Hair Tip: Never fashion your cornrows too tight. Super tight braiding can result in hair loss at your hair line.

Late Night Beauty Call: Erykah Badu

Late Night Beauty Call Erykah Badu 3

Fashion designers and beauty enthusiasts concur that Erykah Badu is a bonafide icon.  From her sultry and anthem lyrical masterpieces to her striking natural beauty, Erykah is truly in a class all by herself.  Due to her uniqueness we couldn’t wait to make Miss Badu our beauty of the night.

As usual we had difficulties settling on one look so we chose to narrow it down to two. The first look is a classic red lip (major trend for this season).  Erykah just looks too cool for school and demontrates that when applied correctly a strong makeup look does not have to overpower your fashions. Badu’s accessories are already intensely bold yet her makeup simply complements her overall look without exerting dominance.

For the second favorite beauty look we just had to showcase Badu looking au natural. Bare face is the new glamour makeup look. Your beautiful just the way you are so take a page from Erykah’s book and flaunt it!

Chic and Sleek

Chic and Sleek

Hair trend alert, to be as hot as the temperature around you this summer you need to keep it chic and sleek! Bone straight locks are all the rage this season and to get this look it boils down to what tools you have in your hair arsenal. You can win the hair war in a cinch by investing in a great flat iron. Alright girls here is how we shall conquer!

Meet the Corioliss C3…what makes this flat iron one of the best?

This iron has plates made entirely from titanium. Titanium plates boast all of the same straightening properties as ceramic ones, but with a higher output of negative ions. If you have thick hair you will swear that this product was made just for you.

Nevertheless, the iron uses infrared heat to straighten hair. This differs from traditional heat because it generates longer wavelengths that more deeply penetrate the cuticle of individual hair strands. The result is straighter and smoother hair in mere seconds!

corioliss-c3-flatiron If you have unruly or coarse hair and other flat irons have failed you in the past then end all the drama with the Corioliss C3. The C3 retails for a whopping $200, however, the results are salon worthy which evens out the playing field just a bit. Get those tresses whipped into shape this summer with the help of a great product.
