Get The Look: One Side Hair

Rhianna
Cassie Ventura
I don't know about you, but I think Rhianna and Cassie's one side shave is so cool, specially since the other side has such long, luxurious hair. No matter how much I like their hairstyles, I could never put a razors to my hair. Not going to happen, ever! But since I don't want any commitment to this hairstyle, I have found a trick to getting this look by using gel, a brush and comb, and bobby pins or clips.
  1. Begin with hair that is not too clean, you need a little bit of greasiness in your hair for the style to work.
  2. Part your hair in the size that you want your "shaved" section to be and gather the remaining hair into the ponytail holder.
  3. Brush down the loose hair and you can either put tight braids to make the hair lie down or just slick everything back with gel.
  4. Pull the braids or slick hair down and back and secure it with lots of clips and bobby pins that match your hair color.
  5. Release the section of hair from  Step 2 and blend the hair and add volume at the top to contrast it from the "shaved" section.
You can wear this look with waves, curls, or pin straight on the other side, whatever suits you. This look is perfect for girls like me who are not ready to take the risk of a razor!

Get The Look: Smokes and Roses

Cassie Ventura
Cassie's make-up looks are always gorgeous and suit her well. Cassie is seen wearing a nude, glosst lip in almost all her beauty looks along with long thick lashes. Not only is Cassie daring with her make-up, she also bold with hair because she has one side shaved and the other long and luscious. To recreate the look pull your hair into a side ponytail and add loose curls to the bottom. For the make-up, all you need is a rosy blush, nude gloss, black eyeshadow, golden shadow, a highlight, black liner, and mascara.
  1. Begin with a clean face and conceal any needed areas. Use foundation to even out skin tone and smoothness.
  2.  Brush your eyebrows and add primer all over the lids.
  3. Take the golden shadow and apply it all over your lower eyelid.
  4. Take the black shadow and apply in a C-shape into your crease. Brush the shadow out into a fading point. *Use a dark brown shadow for a daytime look!
  5. Apply your highlight starting at the browbone and blend it to the beginning of the crease line.
  6. Apply a thick line of liner with liquid liner across the lash line and apply mascara. *Use false lashes for a dramatic look.
  7. Take a rosy blush and apply it to the apples of your cheeks up into your temples.
  8. Apply a nude gloss to your lips.
Wear this look for a night out or tone it down by using softer colors and wear it for a day out! Remember, practice makes perfect and to be patient when trying out new make-up looks. Modify the look and make it your very own for a more personal touch. Try out the look!
