Doll Head: Runway updo. Crimped & Spray gel.


The beginning. This is how the doll looked when I first started. Then a couple hours later...

It looked like this. Something I have never done or tried before.

I wanted to do something I had never done before and mix different textures.

I love volume and I love sleek. So I combined them. 
Deciding how to do the bangs or front section was the most perplexing.

I crimped the middle section and pinned. I wet and spray gelled the sides. Using the blow dryer to ensure it was smooth.

I incorporated a small section of gelled hair into the crimped part. 

I wanted there to be a distinct wet look and separate crimped look, together. 

I pin curled wet pin curls to dry at the base.
Using the blow dryer to speed up the set. & teased the bottom crimped part.

Got the front bump just right and proportioned. 

I used a french twist rolling pin roller for the middle section. It is by Conair.

Pinned a pin curl at the top

Final look.

New Years Eve Hair, Makeup, & Dress Ideas

 New Year's Eve is pretty much a formal occasion. A time to wear your hair up or glam waves. Make up is usually more on the glittery side. And of course your dress is short, sexy and festive.
Here are some ideas on what to wear for your night on the town.
Dress!!
If you go with a black dress, animal print shoes and red lipstick can give it a pop.

Also love all that glitters!!! NYE you can get away with these dresses, so why not?!

These black dresses are classy and chic.

If you don't have money to get an expensive dress. I would suggest a little black dress, strapless, halter or tank style. I am sure Forever XI or H&M has lots of stuff. Actually they do. Even the glittery dresses! 


Makeup!!

If you plan on doing a simple eye makeup and red lipstick. Try this trick of putting either concealer over your lips first to neutralize the color or white eyeliner!!! I am going to try this myself.
