We all know traveling during the holidays can be hectic. Whether driving or flying, the last thing we want to be concerned about is our hair. It’s time to be creative and change up your style!
Hair
Hair accessories are a fun and cute way to show your creative side, all while serving a purpose, so double win! I really enjoy Halloween and like to start celebrating the season a little early with my accessories. (Although I am not against wearing something with skulls 365 days a year.)
I have several necklaces, earrings and bracelets to show my Halloween spirit, but my hair accessory game was lacking. I’m going to have to remedy that quick.
Here are six spooky hair accessories to show off your Halloween spirit.
Halloween is a great time to expand your hair styling skills and try out a few different looks you might not wear on a day-to-day basis. Maybe you will wear these looks day-to-day — what do I know? Either way, Halloween is a great time to expand a little and have some fun!
Here are 5 fun + easy Halloween hair vlogs for some serious Halloween inspiration.
Have you ever wondered if you should go for a change in style by choosing to cut your bangs? Styles are always changing – and for Fall 2015 – things seem to be leaning on a longer, fuller bang that is sometimes parted in the middle. But how do you know what is right for you? So many choices to consider: blunt, arched, heavy, wispy, short, long, side-swept, or parted.
First, you need to determine your face shape. Oval faces are able to do pretty much any type of bang style. A rounder face will need a little length added, so you would really only want a side-swept bang, a very wispy bang, or possibly a very short, blunt bang. For an long or rectangular face, you would want to consider a longer, blunt, heavy bang to help shorten the face shape.
Now “measure” your forehead using your index, middle, and ring finger. To do this, place your fingers at your hairline. If your ring finger lines up with the top of your brow, than you are able to go with or without bangs, it is your choice. If you measure less than or more than 3 fingers, you may want to consider bangs as an option. A higher or shorter forehead can be concealed by a stylish bang.
For those of you with longer hair who want to try some bangs without committing all the way, try to cut a longer bang starting at the cheekbone. It highlights the eyes anytime you create a weight line around the eye/cheekbone area.
No matter what is on trend for Fall, just remember, have fun with your hair. In the end, it all comes down to what you are comfortable with. The great thing about hair is that it grows – and you can always change it!
The dreaded call from the school, “Your child has head lice and needs to be picked up.” So, you pick up the lice shampoo and follow the directions on the box and two weeks later you see your child scratching her head. One nit (egg) can hatch and start to lay eggs within 10-14 days – and here we go again.
Here are a few tips for lice control:
- Do not share combs, brushes, or jackets
- After a treatment, vacuum the floors, furniture, and the car
- Don’t forget the car seat. It can be vacuumed and the cover can be washed
- There are sprays for upholstery
- Wash the sheets in hot water and a hot dryer
- Vacuum or wash the curtains
- Place all plush toys in a plastic bag for two weeks minimum
- Clean all combs and brushes with an approved lice product
Do these things and you’ll avoid this.
As I mentioned before, hair accessories are going to be big this fall, and if I’m being honest that kinda scares me. Not because I don’t like hair accessories, because I do, but because I’m not 100 percent sure how to exactly wear a hair accessory without looking silly. I have really thin hair, and I always feel like an accessory accentuates that. I’m sure it’s all in my head.
In an effort to combat my weird anxiety towards hair accessories, I went on a quest to find some cute options that are budget friendly and was pleasantly surprised.
Here are 15 hair accessories $15 and under.
Do you feel that crispness in the air? It means fall is on its way! I am anxiously awaiting pumpkin-spiced everything and the cozy feeling I love so much. And, man, are there a lot of gorgeous trends coming for you. Low-slung ponytails, fringe bangs, hair accessories and more — this fall is gonna be stellar.
