Having short "piece-y" bangs are a great way to add some funk to a straight bob! To achieve this look, have your stylist cut layered bangs into your bob. Airdry the hair and flat iron on medium

FAQ: Weekly Hairstyles?
Q: I was curious if it was safe to get hairstyles like french rolls with spritz, fingerwaves, scrunchies, etc. Is that healthy on a per week or every other week basis? With that being said, these styles will not allow for the prepoo, correct? What do you advise?
A: Well, here is my take on the weekly styles, particularly the ones done at salons (Ill just clear out my inbox now;)). On one hand, these styles are great because your hair is often in a protective style (style which protects your ends and hair from manipulation and friction). With french rolls, in particular, you hair is up off of your shoulders and pulled back neatly.
On the other hand, the problem is that these styles, if meant to last the whole week, require a ton of product and direct heat to keep them "set". These products, like gels and hairspray, tend to have a high alcohol content, which can be very drying to the hair. Adding direct heat to the mix will only dry out the hair even more.
Furthermore, since the hair is styled, it is difficult to maintain the hair in between visits. So, you might not be able to moisturize properly and brush it on a daily basis. Brushing or wide tooth combing the hair on a daily basis helps distribute the natural oils from your scalp to the ends of the hair, where it is needed most.
Hope this helps!

Daily Discussion: Naturalaxers?
Has anyone tried Naturalaxers? If so, how did you like it??
Everyone has been asking
"Does a natural, chemical-free relaxer really exist?" After almost a
year of research, we can finally say "Yes, it does". It's called
Natural-Laxer MIX TM.
Baka Beauty Products International has brought an all natural herbal relaxer and hair treatment to the Western World. Before you order, please read what this "relaxer" is and what it is not. We believe natural relaxers have gotten a bad rap for two reasons. There have been, and there are "natural relaxers" on the market that are not 100% natural. And, there have been unrealistic expectations about what a natural relaxer could do.
Baka Beauty Products' Natural-Laxer MIX is 100% natural powder made entirely of sun dried exotic herbs and Sahara Clay hair leaving it silky smooth. The herbs used in the natural relaxer are completely natural and completely safe. When mixed with Sahara Clay and hot water and applied to the hair and skin, it produces miraculous results. This ancient herbal secret has been used dating back to the pharaohs. Available now from Treasured Locks, Natural-Laxer MIX is an advanced spa treatment for your hair and skin that you apply yourself in the comfort of your own home. Each Natural-Laxer MIX is enough for approximately application for a "typical" head of hair, depending on the volume and length of your hair.
