Hair tip of the day: Up-do's and Party Hair!

It's always fun to do something different with our hair before a big night out. Whether it's a work function, a play or musical, a wedding, or a friends party, it's so fun to have a style. Some women really work the up-do. I have a friend that can wear her hair a million different ways and always look chic. She picks out the dress and then I design her up-do. It works on her. She wears every look with ease. Now, for myself if my hair is "done" I feel like a drag-queen. We are talking To Wong Foo With Love (ya, Patrick Swayze!!!). So for those of us that feel like when we dress up, we are wearing our Mom's too big heels, here is my advice: Let fancy hair be you but just a little more polished. If you always wear your hair down, keep it down but add a little wave or smooth it with a flat-iron. Maybe sport a pretty clip. Short hair? By using different products your stylist can create a fun look that again has just a little more "zing" than your everyday hair. Or if you are a daring sort of artsy person, wear a hair piece, a hat, or a hair accessory. The point is, that you should feel comfortable in the style that you are wearing. If you feel like you can't move or that you look like your Great Aunt Bessie, the look is way too overdone! Tone it down a bit and remember that it should be you, just a little more polished!:)
