All of the homecoming hairstyles for 2009 are based off of trends seen on the runway and on celebrities. This year popular choices of homecoming hairstyles include looks ranging from retro glam, wavy crinkled hairstyles and messy Updos.
With any style routine, you should start out by cleaning your hair with a voluminous shampoo and conditioner like , Enjoy Rejuvenating Volumizing Shampoo & Conditioner, which will rejuvenate wilted strands as well as pump up thinning strands and protect color. A trick to obtaining the most volume is to avoid conditioning the top of your head. Only put conditioner on the bottom half of your hair. Pick it up at Reve Salon & Spa today!

Paddle Brush

Ravishing red heads like Julianne Moore and Marcia Cross show off thier favorite fall color all year round. Red hair is beautiful on porcelain skin tones because it adds a little color to light complexions.
If you are thinking about going darker, now is the time to do it
Blonde’s can still alter their hair color for the season too, even without extreme measures. Have your stylist at Reve Salon & Spa add in low-lights in a contrasting shade that is flattering to your skin tone. Some fall favorites for low-lights include coppers and golds. This will warm up your shade and give you a fresh look without going overboard.
If you want to try a new color for fall, but don’t want to change your hair drastically, try a glaze or semi-permanent of the shade you yearn for. This gives your hair a hint of a fresh shade without the drama of permanent color.

There are several products available today that are billed as ‘hair thickening formulas - sprays, gels, mousses, shampoos and conditioners - and all work in one of two ways to achieve a thickening effect. Some of these products are designed to simply adhere to the outer layer of the hair shaft, adding an extra layer to the hair, making it feel and look thicker. Others are formulated to actually lift the cuticle layer of the hair and swell the hair shaft to achieve the thickening. Both types of product work, as long as you use them with realistic expectations. I have fine hair and I use a product called BLOWOUT made by Sudzz fx, I definitely recommend it!

Always test the heat level of a new appliance before you ever apply it to the hair. A piece of moistened tissue paper should be inserted in the appliance and held for a few seconds without any scorching. If the paper gets discolored, the iron is too hot.

Yes, of course. The hair on your face is hair just like on any other part of your body - including your head. It can be colored by the same products you use to change your haircolor. There are some differences, obviously. The one most readily apparent to everyone is texture.
Facial hair tends to be much coarser than the hair on the head, and as a result can be more resistant to haircolor. The facial hair can also be less dense than the hair of the scalp and color application must therefore be done much more carefully to minimize the staining of the skin underneath.

Nothing’s more natural in summer than pink, flushed, “just-back-from-a-run” skin. To get this look, apply bronzer on all the bits the sun would naturally hit: forehead, cheeks and nose. Then apply a pink blush on the apples of your cheeks.

One of the biggest beauty myths is that chocolate (and fried foods) can cause acne. Extensive research shows this is simply not true. A poor diet and/or stress however, can exacerbate acne. So if you already have a pimple problem, try to maintain a healthy diet.
Hormones, overactive oil glands, heredity and dead skin cells that lodge in your skin pores are what causes acne, according to the Acne Resource Center in Tampa Florida.
