Total Beauty Post - Dramatic Hair Color Makeovers
| See how one busy working mom got a major boost in confidence with this chic new color |
 This is a TotalBeauty.com makeover article With a demanding work life, and an even more demanding 2-year-old at home, Beth needed a cut and color that would help her look more polished and put-together -- without taking a ton of time. So we called in our team of experts at the Warren-Tricomi salon to give her a new low-maintenance 'do. |
Lady Gaga on cover of Harper's Bazaar
Lady Gaga graces Harper's Bazaar's May cover, and in the interview, the provocative pop star opens up about her body, fashion statements, her stand on plastic surgery, and more. Please see attached for the cover and inside photos and full story, and below for a few highlights from the interview. ***
For the provocative pop star, all the world’s a stage. Why? Because she was born that way.
“I have never had plastic surgery, and there are many pop singers who have. I think that promoting insecurity in the form of plastic surgery is infinitely more harmful than an artistic expression related to body modification.”
“I am an artist, and I have the ability and the free will to choose the way the world will envision me.”
She says that once she had become a household name—after winning Grammys, after wrestling with Madonna on Saturday Night Live, after countless magazine covers—she felt pressured to move to the pop-culture mecca that is Los Angeles. “I had all these number-one records, and I had sold all these albums, and it was sort of this turning point: Am I going to try and embrace Hollywood and assimilate to that culture?” Suffice to say, it didn’t work out. “I put my toe in that water, and it was a Kegel-exercise vaginal reaction where I clenched and had to retract immediately,” she says in a very vivid metaphor. “I ran furiously back to New York, to my old apartment, and I hung out with my friends, and I went to the same bars.”
Gelac Looking Glass swatch
Giving Gelac a second try! Tina did my nails in Looking Glass on Saturday. I already have a 'break' in one of the nails that I'll have to try and file down. Gelac just seems so much thinner than Shellac. Looking Glass, although it's a pretty sheer color, didn't full cover my nails.

Zero Frizz Review
During my trip to Florida 2 weeks ago, the weather was on the brink of turning really sticky. The day I left there was such much humidity my skin felt damp just walking outside! I made sure to pack Zero Frizz Corrective Serum in my bag so I could put it to the ultimate test of Florida humidity.
I use Zero Frizz all the time here in Michigan, but it's also very dry here right now, so I couldn't put it's frizz taming capabilities to the test.
I used it every morning while in Florida and was super happy with the results. Not only did it keep the frizz at bay but it made my hair look really smooth after blow drying. I used it by itself on a few days, and then mixed with a moisturizing leave-in condition on another day. Both times my hair stayed frizz free.
Zero Frizz has UV protectants, vitamins and proteins that help to strengthen hair and prevent breakage. A little goes along way, and at $4.64 a pop, you're going to get a great big bang for your buck! You can find Zero Frizz at local Walmart.

Get a Bronzed Glow from a Spray Tan
Have you ever spray tanned? I know people now think of Snookie when I mention spray tanning, but its a safe way to get a bronzed glow, without putting yourself in harmful rays.
I've never tried a Mystique tanning booth, but heard they are just 'okay' in terms of even coverage. I've had the best luck when the tan is airbrushed by a professional.
For the local Michiganders that follow my blog, I recently visited Allison at Sunkiss'd Spray Tan to get bronzed for an upcoming trip. This was my second visit with her and loved the results. Allison uses Artesian & Norvelle tanning solutions. I think she may have mixed it to be a medium shade for me. Immediately after spray tanning I was really dark. Once I showered in the morning it was a very natural bronzed color. The tan lasted a solid 4 days, and then started to fade.
If you have a wedding, party or vacation coming up, I highly suggest trying this out. If it's YOUR wedding, please get a trial run first! Mention Allison's website and get $5 off. She normally charges $25.
