A twist on the plain ponytail is perfect for a back to school hairstyle and for any other time! Jordin Sparks shows just how versatile a ponytail can be as well as convenient. All the ponytails can be done  on medium to long hair and heat is not required. The first style will look great if you have waves or curls in your hair. All you have to do is pull your hair to the side and pull out a few peices to frame your face. If your not feeling the side do', slick it backwards into a high ponytail and keep the ends wavy. The last ponytail looks gorgeous with dip-dyed or ombre hair. Slick all the hair to the side or the back into a sleek ponytail. Now all you have to do is make a tight braid and secreu it with a ponytail. Ponytail hairstyles are very easy to create and turn out very chic! Try it out for back to school or everyday wear.

Billboard Awards Beauty and Fashion

Zooey Deschanel

Now the Billboard Awards are definitely more casual than most awards shows and holds a room full of young and hip stars. The outfits for the Billboard Awards go from princess gowns to funky tights and sneakers. Personally I love watching the award show's red carpet to discover new party styles, popular color schemes, and gorgeous beauty looks. Miley Cyrus was very revealing at the award show, but her beauty look was even more striking! I love the tousled hair, thick eyebrows, long lashes, and glossy lips, very Marilyn Monroe-esque. Carrie Underwood went total princess decked out in jewels and lots of pinks and purples. Carrie's look is a complete dream fit with magical wavy hair. Jordin Sparks' look is my favorite from head to toe. The lace dress is trendy while still be dressy and casual at the same time as well as her cute side pony and accessories. Katy Perry and Zooey Deschanel's outfits were not on my top list, but I love their use of glitz and glam while still keeping a low key vibe. They are definitely trendsetting with the light, diamond colors and sparkling shimmer and glitter.

Confidence Booster #8

Jordin Sparks

Health is a an important factor in the gaining confidence and even happiness. Good health makes anyone stand up taller, smile more, and just feel a much better about themselves. Jordin Sparks weight loss has seemed to give her more confidence about her self and the ability to do much more. She has even been supporting trendier clothing and trying out new daring hair trends! Good health can included a healthy hair journey, a goal to having better skin, or even something as simple as growing out your nails. Sometimes people may get wrapped into so many things that their own bodies and health can be forgotten which results in being tired and sluggish. Keep your confidence up by remembering to exercise and treat all aspects of yourself with lots of care. Boost up your confidence ladies!

Hair 101: Dip Dyed Hair



Jessie J

Jessie J is always bold! I love the contrast between the purple and black in her hair.

Selena Gomez

Selena Gomez shocked me when she put blue and purple in hair. The colors are very vibrant, but she is confident and rocks it!

Jordin Sparks

Jordin Sparks is gorgeous! The purple blends well with her natural hair color and is just perfect. I wonder how it looks curly.

The dip dyed hair trend has been seen on many celebrities and every day people. I love the trend, but only when done right. My favorite dip dyed hair look is on Jordin Sparks. Jordin Sparks' colored hair blends in to look almost natural, but still fun and unexpected. Never go to bright with dip dyed hair, it may take away from your whole look and most importantly your beautiful face. I am not one to use hair color on my hair, but if I did I would love to try dip dyed hair.

How do you feel about dip dyed hair?
