Totally Hair! New Look in 2013

I’m on a mission and ready for a drastic change with my hair. I’ve always played it safe with my hairstyles but, I’m so over it right now. I’m tempted to chop it off and do something totally different. My hair has always been worn in a doobie wrap style because it’s super easy to maintain at any length. You just wrap up you hair before bed in a net or silk wrap and comb it down when you’re ready to go! It works for me for me because I don’t like putting too much heat on my hair and it’s been a healthy approach to maintaining my preferred style. I also have a thing about blunt cuts and everything being even. I have gone out of my comfort zone and done A-Symmetrical cuts, even some layering but, after a short time has gone by I’m ready to even it all out. I have no idea where I got this from but, it NEVER fails…

There are so many things to decide. Bangs or no bangs? Layers or no layers? I like to have options, so maybe bangs that can be hidden or swooped to the side. I wouldn’t mind longer hair in the front and short layers in the back. I’ve been online all day looking at some hairstyles that may work for me. My hair has been colored for a while and could use a touch up but, I’m more concerned about my style right now more than anything. I usually go darker in the winter and lighter in the summer. I’m going to need some help making this decision and I’m going to make an appointment for a hair consultation before I do anything. Check out a few pictures of hairstyles I’ve rocked and some other styles that jumped out at me when looking online. I’d like some input on the styles that I’ve posted. Please give me your thoughts and vote on a style in the comments.

I can’t wait to see what happens and reveal my new look to everyone. If you happen to come across a hairstyle that you think would suit me feel free to leave a link in the comments or mention me on Twitter. My Twitter handle is @JaelDesignsInc. I can’t wait for this change! Thanks in advance for any help and input on my current hairstyle journey for 2013! You can see the most recent hairstyle I’m rocking in Glam It Up Wednesday!

Velecta Paramount Professional Hair Dryer – TGRXXP Review

I had the opportunity to review the Velecta Paramount Professional Hair Dryer – TGRXXP courtesy of Flat Iron Experts and immediately I recognized one of my favorite features is the ergonomic handle. It fits perfectly in your hand in order to blow dry your hair whether you’re a lefty or a righty like me, and the settings are placed just right . It usually takes me roughly two hours to do my hair from start to finish. My hair drying time was cut down by 25-30 minutes because the Velecta Paramount Professional Hair Dryer – TGRXXP has the perfect air flow with 75 mph air speed. It has 1875 watts equipped with a powerful and professional AC motor, two speeds and three heat settings plus a cool shot button. The temperatures are perfect on each setting and you can use the cool shot button no matter what temperature setting you’re on. One thing that I truly appreciate is you can easily clean the filter which will prolong your hair dryers life. I’ve never owned a hair dryer that I can conveniently disassemble and clean. It’s recommended to do a monthly maintenance cleaning.

The Velecta Paramount Professional Hair Dryer – TGRXXP is made in Paris, France and very attractive. Weighing 1.85 lbs it has a chic look equipped with a 12 foot power chord that doesn’t tangle or get in the way. If your power cord gets damaged you can send it back to dannyco, your dealer or an authorized repair depot. You also receive a six month limited warranty and can refer to the warranty program for details. My overall experience with The Velecta Paramount Professional Hair Dryer was great! It dried my hair faster than usual, and I didn’t deal with lots of tangled hair. I usually use a shine product before and during blow drying my hair and I didn’t need to use much during the blow drying process. I used the temperature setting on medium low and it didn’t dry out my hair and left it feeling healthy. After blow drying my hair, I flat ironed and styled it as usual. The Velecta Paramount Professional Hair Dryer is very popular on the Flat Iron Experts website and a bonus is they offer a 30 day 100% Satisfactory money back guarantee which allows you to shop risk free. If you are unhappy with a product just simply mail it back to Flat Iron Experts and your money will be refunded to you!

Take a look at some of the pictures that I captured during my hair “salon at home” session and feel free to head over to Flat Iron Experts website for more information.

Mama Needs a Makeover

Guess what I’m doing? I’m nominating myself for a makeover contest, courtesy of My Girlfriend’s Closet in Apex, NC. No, I didn’t want to wait for a friend, my husband or my sister to nominate me. I took the lead on this one! I’ll be filling out a nomination form explaining in 100 words or less why I deserve to win this makeover. I also need to include why I currently dress the way I do and why a makeover would benefit me. I need to submit a photograph of myself representing my style. The photo will be used for finalists to be selected and also selecting the grand prize winner. Top 3 Finalists WIN a complete outfit from My Girlfriend’s Closet, hair Cut and Color, and Makeup. Grand Prize winner receives a Fall & Spring Personal Shopping Appointment w/$50 MGC Store Credit at each, plus a cash donation to a charity of their choice. Isn’t this amazing! I’m so excited for this opportunity.

So here goes… I’m the mom of four (2 boys & 2 girls) 2 teens, 1 tween and a toddler. I’m a FT Marketing Coordinator for a newspaper and also run a graphic design business. It’s natural for me to take care of everyone else first and I last. A makeover would benefit me because I have changed my style very little since high school. I cut my hair; I grow it out and occasionally a high light here or there depending on the occasion. I never wear makeup unless I’m going out to a function and I own a few pair of jeans that I can actually fit. I work in a very relaxed atmosphere so jeans and a top are my regular daily attire. I have clothes stored away in a few storage bins that I hope to wear again one day. My thought process was that once my son was born, I’d lose the weight and get back into my pre pregnancy wear but, that day hasn’t come yet and my son is now THREE! None of those old jeans can go past my hips or over my hindquarters! Oh, and one of my favorite pairs of jeans that I still wear to this day are my Old Navy Maternity Jeans. They are just so comfortable! I guess I wouldn’t mind the pampering or shopping either and I can classify that as “ME” time which is rare in my life. In a nut shell that’s why I want to nominate myself for the makeover!

Now I just need to take a picture of myself or find one that represents my style. hmph! That will be tough… Most of the pictures I use and take are all head shots for profile pictures on my networking pages etc. Well, that’s what I’m up to. Hopefully I get enough votes and become a finalist or Grand Prize winner. *fingers crossed*
