Why We Love The Balayage Trend

If you haven’t heard of balayage hair by now, you will. Or, you’ve seen it and you never knew what it was actually called. Personally, I have had all colors and styles of hair. From super long and bleach blonde to a short dark brown bob and everything in between. So far my favorite, which I have kept for over a year now, is balayage.

What is balayage?

Balayage was invented in the 70s but has become more popular now than ever. It is done by hand instead of using foils, and it gives a natural highlight in your hair without touching the roots.

Dark roots are in. Remember when it was embarrassing for your grown out roots to show? Well, that is not the case anymore. Women love the dark rooted look.

Balayage fits all types of hair. The highlights typically are not drastic and only go a few shades lighter than your natural hair. Everyone’s looks different, because it is personalized to your shade and cut.

The best part about this gorgeous hair trend is that it is cheap and low maintenance. I get my hair done only twice a year, because you don’t have to touch up your roots. That saves A LOT of money. Also, it looks good natural, straight, curly, or up in a ponytail or bun. Balayage looks best with a soft curl.

I recommend all girls to try out this trend. Plenty of girls have this popular style. I guarantee it will be in style for a long time. So make an appointment with your hairdresser and ask about this look!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
