Hair Growth Tips
Be patient and squash the urge to get a full cut. This is a great opportunity to discover what length looks best on you.
Try out some new hairstyles. Take a cue from celebrities and enjoy diversity.
Invest in some hair accessories such as head-bands, barrettes, bobby pins, hair sticks, and ties. Use these to pin back awkward areas or wear a full-fledged bun or pony-tail.
When growing bangs out, you can pin them back or swoop them to the side.
If your hair is thick, ask your stylist to use thinning scissors to keep your hair more manageable.
Longer hair requires more time to maintain and style. Be sure to rinse out all of your shampoo and condition it properly.
There is no magic pill for hair growth but taking a multi-vitamin, eating healthy foods, and getting your beauty sleep is beneficial to both your hair and skin.
Avoid brushes and use only a wide-toothed comb on wet hair to avoid frizz and split ends.
If you really can't wait, go to the salon and have a professional add some hair extensions. Keep in mind that this is not a permanent fix and can damage your hair over time. Better yet, buy some inexpensive, clip-on extensions and pony tails. These can be found at beauty supply stores and drug stores

Beauty Quote of the Month
In nature, nothing is perfect and everything is perfect. Trees can be contorted, bent in weird ways, and they're still beautiful.

Painting & Decorating Fingernails
Be creative when you give yourself manicures! Add wild colors, decals and stickers specifically designed for your fingernails.

First, you will need a good surface to work with.
- To avoid air bubbles in your polish, do not shake the bottle.
Roll it gently in the palm of your hands before applying.
- Apply your fingernail polish in three strokes, one in the middle and one on each side, taking special care to avoid your skin and cuticles.
- If you are in a hurry, or plan to redo your nails soon, apply only two coats of polish. Allow the first coat to dry before adding the second coat.
- For longer staying polish, apply one base coat, two coats of polish, and finish it off with a top coat to prevent chipping.
- Metallic nail polishes stay on much longer without chipping, but they are much harder to remove.
- Apply the polish to the edge, underneath the tip of the nail to reinforce the area.
- When you are finished, clean up any additional polish on your skin and cuticles with a cotton swab dipped in nail polish remover.
- Let your nails dry completely for about 30 minutes before doing anything, and do not go to bed with wet polish.
- If your favorite polish is getting old and thick, add a bit of polish thinner or remover to revive it.
