Splash International 2013

We are absolutely astonished by the extravagant styling coming from the 2013 Splash International Show in Japan, and Indiquenistas around the globe are grabbing some inspiration from these images. From sky-scraping moldings, to vibrant colors, the spectacular display was chalk full of daring imaginations for the hair runway. Judging by the show, this season is all about pushing the envelope to create your own strikingly fabulous look. If you are always bone straight, go for volume! Usually do the flat wrap? Get some height!   We’re definitely taking a cue from the 2013 Splash International Show  & stepping outside the box with textures & lengths for vacation. So, try something new the next time around- you may love what you discover!

BET's Rip The Runway 2013

BET's Rip The Runway was definitely a night to remember with Kelly Rowland and Boris Kudjo as amazing hosts! There were musical performances by Rick Ross, Sevyn Streeter, Omarion, and others while the models ripped the runway wearing designers like Shanda Style, Lie Sang Bong, Moschino and many more! Through out the night everyone stressed the importance of wearing their confidence as their best accessory because it's not who you wear, it's how you rock it. With that being said, always Think Beautiful ladies!!

Check out some higlights of the the show if you missed it!

Deep Side Part

Obsessed with this side-heavy look- it’s all over the red carpet. It’s kind of got this sort of 90′s feel to it which we’ve really been digging. The weight of the hair feels very a-symmetric . Rock this look with a bold lip and black eyeliner. A glammed-up deep side part with curls are what’s in this spring and summer. Glamour in an instant!

Brandy's Bohemian Curly Chic

We are LOVING Brandy's new big curly look....the bigger the hair, the better! She is totally giving us Bohemian chic these days. She is rocking the BOUNCE Coil Curl, which is styled by Cesar Ramirez (@Ceasar4styles). Cesar explains how he created this fresh new look for his client Brandy,  " I wash, deep condition, then use a leave in called Ringlet by RedKen. Then diffuse section by section. After it is dry I go in and enhance the curl with a tiny tiny wand". 

Checkout more of Cesar's styles and stay tuned for more of his style tips!
