Hairspiration

Everytime I get ready to do something drastic to my hair I search high and low...well, I search through Google and Pinterest for the ultimate hair styles. I found some awesome images. Of course, I want to share with my lovelies!

I cant wait to update my hair. I am gonna go back to shaving my side again and I'm thinking about getting some extensions. Ive never had them before but I wanna try it. I am getting better at doing extensions myself. I want to do crazy, fun looks and specialize in dramatic, colorful looks! I hope you love all these images! Which one is your favorite? Thanks for stopping by!

 

Being successful is not defined by having a good job that pays well and carrying an image that everybody envy and crave. It is justified by being fulfilled of what's presently in your hands, having your loved ones and dear friends around, and being on the place where your are at serenity and true happiness abound.



The Silver Lining

As an artist, makeup artist, hairstylist, you should know I love COLOR! I posted a timeline of my hair and what colors I have had last year. I have had this current style for a few months now and Im ready for a new change in my hair. I have been scoping the internet for inspiration on what I want to do. From google ro Pintrest I have found some photos I love!

So of course, I wanna share with you what inspires me. I am waiting for my kids to get ready and dressed so we can go out and I can go to the hair supply store. Matthias wants to paint pottery today, but thats a bit too expensive right now, so were gonna go to Micheals in a bit and get some fun things to paint.

I have some sketching to do later for a Vegas Theme prop I am doing. I have to figure out also what the best material will be to make it because I am thinking plywood will be too heavy. I dunno yet. But thats later, so let me share these photos and I am pretty sure you can guess what color I am leaning towards more. hahaha

I love this hair cut

Of course I am gonna put my own spin on this. I have someone that is going to do this for me (hopefully if everything works out the way its supposed to) if not, Ill prolly get too impatient and do it myself. Ill make sure to take before and after pics and share!

I am off to help the kiddos get ready and maybe we will go by the beach and get some icecream on this nice day. I hope you have a gorgeous day too!

So do not worry about tomorrow for tomorrow will take care of itself.

 

Though we are never promised tomorrow, and though we should always make an effort to go for our dreams and to have plans for tomorrow, we must never worry about tomorrow so much that we forget about today.

Today is the day that we can make tomorrow greater. In an effort to live the best life we can possibly live we have to put all of ourselves into every single day, and every step that we take in life so that we may be able to make the best future for ourselves.

The rest of our lives dont start tomorrow, the rest of our lives start today. The person that you are today may have come from who you were before, and the person you are today will be influential in who you are tomorrow as well. So be the best person that you can possibly be today, take risks, live courageously, work hard and love with everything inside of you.

Atomic Turquoise

In all the craziness of this past weekend, I almost forgot to post about my new hair color(s). Here are the two Manic Panic Colors I chose to use:

I had lightened the crown of my head and fringe area where I wanted the Turquoise to go. After I washed the lightener out and dried my hair, I then applied the turquiose to the lightened area.

I sectioned off all my hair- I did this myself only because I am too impatient and I wanted to change the hair color already! hahaha

Here you can see where I lightened it.

Next, I applied the Raven over the red, and since this is a semi permanent, it is more like a glaze over the red and the affect is pretty cool. It looks black but in the sun is a deep black-red. It reminds me of a bird feather! Like an exotic blackish red feather.

I also freshened up the shaved side and Voila! Done! I got tired of the red since I had it for 6 months and wanted to go back to darker colors now that fall is kickin in. How do you like it?

And yes these are 3D glasses with the lens punched out! I dont know why but I love wearing them- there goofy and funny and add some spunk. I know I am a nerd hahahahah

How do you like it? I hope that this inspires you to experiment on colors too! I would love to see them if you could send them to me! cecilia@sweetsurrenderart.com

MANIC Panic

I have been using MANIC PANIC hair colors for the past 6 months. and I LOVE IT! I have been coloring my hair red for a couple months now, in fact it is AMPLIFIED Manic Panic in Vampire Red.

Here is my red hair journey- hahahah

It started out in small sections until I ended up opting for my whole head being this vibrant Vampire Red!

Red has been a big hit this summer season and even going into the fall. I love this red because it really brightened up my face and definetly matched my personality.

Check out MANIC PANIC at their website and see their journey that started Thirty Years ago!

Here are some of my favorite colors that I cant wait to try out!

They even have wigs for sale too! All wigs are about $20- so not bad of a deal if I say so myself!

I am getting rid of the red, and going to be doing something different, so stay tuned to see what I do next to my hair!

I hope this inspired you to go red, or any other color of the rainbow! What color is your hair? or what color are you dying to use????

“Life is like a box of crayons. Most people are the 8-color boxes, but what you're really looking for are the 64-color boxes with the sharpeners on the back. I fancy myself to be a 64-color box, though I've got a few missing. It's ok though, because I've got some more vibrant colors like periwinkle at my disposal. I have a bit of a problem though in that I can only meet the 8-color boxes. Does anyone else have that problem? I mean there are so many different colors of life, of feeling, of articulation.. so when I meet someone who's an 8-color type.. I'm like, "hey girl, magenta!" and she's like, "oh, you mean purple!" and she goes off on her purple thing, and I'm like, "no - I want magenta!"”- John Mayer
