Long Hairstyles

Long Hairstyles

Long hair styles usually work well with any hair type, be it straight, curly or wavy. However, it looks the best if the locks are medium-textured or thick. It is better to skip the lengthy look if you have fine hair or a long and narrow face. The best long hairstyles are those that use limited preparation time. The multiple ponytails style is a very popular long hairstyle.

The multiple ponytails style consists of three base ponytails, but it is possible to have more ponytails if interested! Once the basic style of three ponytails is mastered, which normally takes ten minutes, you can improvise on it.

Another choice is to have all the different ponytails coiled up and pinned on top of the crown to get a beautiful up-do of braids. You could also braid the center of the multi ponytails and leave the side ponytails unbraided. Then you could pin jeweled hairpins at the top of each ponytail, or experiment with different color scrunches to cover the elastic bands.
The variations with long hairstyles are endless. Long hair styles are limited only by the amount of time one invests in experimenting with different hair styles - and by your imagination.

Kate Gosselin Hairstyle

How to Have a Kate Gosselin Hairstyle??
Instructions
Cut the front of your Kate Gosselin hairstyle into a chunky bob. Keep in mind that one side (the left) is cut quite a bit shorter than the other. Both sides have the "bob" style cut, which frames the face.

The bob style should reach to the halfway point on each side of the scalp.

Cut the back into a punk style cut. Start at the crown, which is the place all of your hair comes together. Short spiky hair adds to the ease of the Kate Gosselin hairstyle. Gel it, spike it, and go.

Leave the back short, yet long enough to lay down without styling. On the days you don't feel like getting fixed up, brush it down and go. The idea is for this simple haircut to be smart, sassy and trendy whether styled or not.

Beauty Bloggerati Spotlight: MacGyver-ish Beauty Tips

Last week, as I removed pills from a sweater using a Schick Quattro razor, I started thinking about alternate uses for everyday beauty products. So I called on my fellow Beauty Bloggerati to share their MacGyver-ish beauty tips. Enjoy!

In a pinch, Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion works as an eye makeup remover. It even takes off mascara. -Karen, Makeup and Beauty Blog

I use a dry toothbrush to exfoliate snaggy, dry lips. -Amber, Beauty Blogging Junkie

I sometimes use my hair conditioner as a shaving-cream stand-in. A rich conditioner can moisturize and protect skin as well as your favorite shaving cream in a pinch, like when traveling! -Tammy, A Mom In Red High Heels

To keep my cuticles looking great when I don't have my favorite Solar Oil on hand, I use Chapstick or lip balm to moisturize them. -Erika, Makeup Bag

Gauze pads work better than cotton balls (or rounds) to remove polish. The textured surface grabs polish so it slides right off and you won't be left picking off cotton ball fibers! -Erika, Makeup Bag

A black Sharpie is the best quick fix for random gray hairs that seem to come out of nowhere! -Erika, Makeup Bag

For those days when I get really drastic breakouts I soak cotton rounds in warm water and then dip them in baking soda. I then lay the pads flat on my ace for about 10 min. The effect of the baking soda brings all of the zitty yuckiness to the surface and then I take sterile lance and pop the zit. Its a safe way to get rid of pimples on your face and it doesn't leave any scarring. -Lisa, These Lips Are Made For Glossin'

I'll do the old lipstick as blush trick - usually when I notice I'm looking deathly pale and I'm out running around to meetings/errands. I don't usually carry blush in my purse, but I always have lipstick or gloss. I dab a bit on the apples of my cheeks and blend. - Anne, The Jet Set Girls

I love to create my own tinted moisturizer by mixing a pinch of mineral foundation, a drop of makeup primer, and a dime size amount of heavy-duty sunscreen. Perfect for days outside! -Bailey, Makeover Momma

When I really need to blot my skin, I grab a piece of a toilet seat cover from the nearest bathroom (or sometimes tissue paper from a present), and use that to soak up any oil. -Bailey, Makeover Momma

I love applying a bit of shimmer cream lotion to my legs and arms to highlight my skin, but it can also be perfect to highlight your brow bone, cheekbones and even lips in a pinch. I also smooth the residue over the ends of my hair, because it tames flyways, makes hair smooth and gives it a sneaky dose of shine. -Bailey, Makeover Momma

I use Vaseline on my feet before bed. I like to slather it on my heels and then put some really thick socks on. It works better than most foot creams I've tried...and I've tried a lot! -Carla, Product Girl

I take the mascara a step further and use one closer to my brow color. It beefs up sparse brows, covers grays if you have them, and keeps them in line. The only caution is to use a waterproof. You don't want to be caught in the rain and have your brows wash off! -Jen, Beyond Beauty Basics

L'Occitane's shea butter hand cream, cuticle cream, conditioner on ends of hair, tame flyaway hair when dry. -Hope, The Jet Set Girls
