1. If you have some natural twists and ringlets  remember that moisture is a curls best friend.

2. Heat tools zap all moisture out of your hair and that will make you sad. Please. Use heat protection.

3. Using essential tea tree oil gives you a happy scalp and hair with a healthy sheen. Tonic is fabulous.

Eye Liner: Fun With Color

 Eye Liner is not just for smokey looks. Sure it will make your lashes look 5x's thicker but why not have a little fun with it? Add some complimentary color.

Complementary colors can be used to subdue or inhanse eachother depending on the hue.

Whether  you are working with an icey blue iris or a coppery hazel you can't go wrong by tracking the color across the wheel to add some va-va-voom.

Add a dash of interesting color along the upper lash line with a thin line of your favorite complementary liner. While you're at it, why not use a color that pops. Green eyes? How about a bright mahogany? I think yes!

Use an angle brush with a bright eye shadow right along the lash line. Or get yourself some of these...



Now that's fun eye color without looking like ... this.

Blow Dryer


Colorful Electrical Tape

Scissior

Clear Coat


Rice (optional)

Lets get started.

-Firstly take your coiled irrigation tubing and cut it into 3 yard sections... or have the kind slaes associate at the hardware store do it for you.

-Now take one slice of the tubing and heat up the ends with your hair dryer. Once the ends are warmed up and slightly maleable, push the 3/4" tube plug into the end of the tube. If you would like a weighted hoop now is the time to add 1 cup of dry rice into the open tube. Warm up the other end and close the tube together. Now you have a basic hoop. Congratulations!

-Sooo...  Lets get wrapping. Take that colorful tape and wrap your hoop to your content.  

-Remember to use some extra tape reinforcement around the seam of the hoop.  

-Finish with some clear coat nail polish on any tape seams and VIOLA! You are ready to make some hula hoop memories!
