Red carpet hairstyles

ADVERTISEMENTS
Christina Hendricks looked stunning on the red carpet having swapped her trademark voluminous bob for these loose, glossy curls. Tonging just the ends of her hair, Christina was left with longer looking locks that rested seductively on her shoulders and her stunning L’Wren Scott dress.



We love Kim Kardashian’s tucked under updo which highlighted her high cheekbones and amazing diamond earrings. Sweeping her long hair up and under, this soft feminine hairstyle was a winning look on the reality star.




January Jones stole the limelight again> at this year’s Screen Actors Guild Awards in LA. Wearing a gold lacy Carolina Herrera dress her hair had been set into a side-sweeping, quiff-fronted updo. Usually a fan of 1940s-style waves, it was great to see January swap glossy waves for this intricate updo.

Top 10 Low Calorie Snacks

ADVERTISEMENTS
Crash dieting can work in the short run, but most sustainable diets involve small, regular meals that provide your nutrition and keep your metabolism running.
Here are my Top 10 favorite snack ideas that I've developed over the years. Each one is healthy, low-fat and low-carb. Even better, they're easy to prepare and inexpensive too. Today's lesson? Snacking is OK!

1. Low Calorie Bran Muffin

Low fat bran muffins
You know those muffins that you probably buy for $5 or more in your local coffee shop? Here's a low calorie replacement that tastes just as good.
They're high in fibre and nutrients, and a really convenient snack for on the go. To cut down on preparation time, you can even make several batches and freeze them and dethaw as needed.


2. Celery with Peanut Butter
An unlikely but delicious combination! If you aren't a fan of peanut butter you can try some other nut butter such as almond, cashew, and hazelnut butter.
Nut butters contain benefical "good fats" that are excellent for your skin. They are also high in fibre and antioxidants.

3. Sweet Potato Wedges

Sweet potato wedges
These delicious sweet potato wedges are low in calories and high in vitamins and fiber. They're also very filling, which makes them a really great diet food.
For a little variety, you can do the same with pumpkin, yams or even parsnips.

4. Low Fat Hummus and Veggies

A very delicious and filling snack thats high in protein, fibre and antioxidants. Try putting it on some whole wheat pita bread - slice the pita in half (lengthways) and you can put it in your toaster.
 Its a great, low fat snack that substitutes peanut butter and sesame oil for the more traditional tahini.

5. Fruit salad

Low fat fruit salad
Fruit contains plenty of antioxidants. Keeping your diet consistently packed with antioxidants will prevent damage to your cells, slow the aging process, and keep you healthy too.
Cut up all your favorite fruits in a bowl - enough to last a few days. That way when you get a sweet craving you can easily grab a bowl.

6. Smoked Salmon and Multi-Grain Crackers

Salmon with multi-grain crackers
Salmon is an excellent source of Omega-3 oils. In recent studies it has been shown that an increased intake of these heart-healthy fatty acids can help to balance blood sugar levels, control appetite and reduce fat storage.
These are really tasty snacks to eat between meals. They only take a second to prepare, they're very low calorie and they're great for your health too!

7. Cottage Cheese or Yogurt with Fruit

Recent research has found that 4 daily servings of low-fat dairy products can boost your body's fat-burning ability. Calcium actually increases your metabolism and keeps your bones and teeth strong.

8. Fruit & Nut Bars

Nut Bars
Finding a nut bar to suit your taste is easier than ever now. They come in all kinds of different varieties and brands.
Nut bars are great snacks to carry with you in those times when you are hungry and healthy snack options are limited.
I always take one on long photoshoots to give me an energy boost when I need it.

9. Boiled Eggs or Devilled Eggs

An excellent source of lean protein and a very tasty snack to keep in the fridge for when you're peckish.


10. Apple with Cheese

Low fat bran muffins
This is a quick, easy and healthy snack thats high in fibre and calcium. It will help quickly curb your appetite between meals.
Some diet experts might tell you that you should stay off the cheese while you're dieting, but in small portions its absolutely fine.
Almost everyone has apples and cheese in the fridge, so this one's a no-brainer.

Long Hairstyles For Square Shaped Faces

ADVERTISEMENTS
Long hairstyles with lots of texture or that are very sleek will go well with square shaped faces. The angularity of the jaw line can be displaced by framing with the hairstyle or using very unique looks to draw attention to the overall style.

Large Curls Long Hairstyle
There are a lot of softening features when it comes to hairstyles for square shaped faces and this hairstyle uses two methods. This lovely hairstyle from Tangles Salon uses a full fringe swept slightly to one side and large, loose curls on all of the tresses to take away attention from angular jawlines and wider forehead areas. Attention is now drawn to the eyes and mouth with these styling additions.




Small Curls Long Hairstyle
The next hairstyle designed by PSC Salon uses the same technique as the first by adding some bangs. This hairstyle also adds small, tight curls throughout the long tresses and styles the hair close to the face and not away from it. This allows for facial framing and bringing attention towards other sections. The hair could also be styled straight down as long as it frames the facial area. Different types of curls and waves can also be used as well.






















Long Wavy Hairstyle
The last hairstyle from Jamison Shaw Salon does not use bangs but just by looking the facial framing can be seen. The hair is parted at the center with a slight lift and the tresses are infused with soft waves which really bring out the hair color. The way the hair is styled around the facial area puts the focal point on the overall look of the hairstyle and not mainly on any part. This type of hairstyle is a fantastic option for women who do not have bangs. .



I love the long wavy hairstyle..

Three Medium Hairstyles for a Square Face
Square shaped faces usually face the issue of an angular jawline that tends to be the main focus. To produce a hairstyle to draw attention from this area, lifting the facial features with texture and framing will create beautiful looks. The three medium ahirstyles below are good choices for square shaped faces, each with different framing and texture.



Mid-Length Bob
This mid-length bob goes great with square face by lifting other facial features and framing the chin area. The layers glide along the face all the way to the chin but bring out the eyes and lips. The higher volume at the top and the swept bangs bring more attention to the top of the face and balances everything out. Overall, this medium hairstyle is a great mid-length cut that balances out square face shapes well.




Sleek and Simple
The first style here is sleek and simple. Usually, simple haircuts are not the best for square shaped faces but this one becomes a good selection. The cut itself is very easy and many women will be able to pull this off. Because the angular jawline of square faces stand out more, the straight bangs and ends help produce a more oval shaped look. Layered locks would produce a better effect but overall this style goes for simplicity and strikes.


Texture and Framing
This style uses texture in the form of curls and waves to gentle lift the facial features. A few layers drop past the chin while some fall around it, producing a nice frame of the middle of the face. The swept bangs draw a lot of attention to the upper area of the face and produce a great balance for the look. A great medium hairstyle for most women with square shaped faces.


Im having a square face.. but i would prefer the Sleek and Simple style much easier to maintain ~

When it comes to short hairstyles that are both cute and sexy, the three celebrities here have it down to the very last strand. Each cut has a different style for the different facial features as well as attitude each one exudes out.

Eva Longoria
Eva Longoria has looked beautiful in long, medium, and short length hair and this is just one example of many. This short hairstyle is a very vibrant cut that brings out her eyes and other facial features below the forehead. The hairstyle is a chin length layered bob styled off center and brushed along the facial lines. This short hairstyle can look good on all facial shapes as bob hairstyles are generally more flattering than other hairstyles.



Katie Holmes
Katie Holmes was first known for her beautiful long hairstyles but added medium and short length hairstyles to her collection and this one is a very sexy, formal look. The hairstyle uses volume and curls to create an eye catching look and combined with the bangs makes it a flattering choice for many women to copy. By looking at her entire look, attention is brought to the eyes with the use of the bangs and the curls compliment her cheek bones.




Victoria Beckham
Victoria Beckham has very unique facial features that allow her to look sexy in hairstyles in various lengths. This short cropped cut is not a hairstyle that will look good on everybody because it really opens up the facial are. Many facial shapes will not fit the cut as well as it opens the forehead area along with the rest of the face. She somehow, makes the short cut into a very great look where other girls would kill the hairstyle. The hairstyle is just a close cut, crop that is brushed forward from the crown and styled to bring focus mainly to the eyes, cheeks, and mouth. Overall this is a very sexy hairstyle that opens up the facial feature and neckline.


Well, enjoy these great short hairstyle and for those girls brave enough to try a very short cut, please remember to bring as many magazine or photos to the salon. It really makes a big difference on the outcome of the cut.
