On this step-by-step, learn how to create a braided halo that includes pops of color using tape-in Hotheads Hair Extensions!

Step 1: Begin with straight hair to assist with sectioning.

Step 2: Using a tailcomb, section the hair in four sections as shown. Clip away both front sections.

Step 3: Section 3/4″ clear of the hairline equal density and width because the extension piece to make sure the tape tab will secure the hair. Flip up the section, and place the contrasting color underneath the section (for a distinct POP of color!). Place the darker color on top with the adhesive side facing down, sandwiching the hair between both tabs.

Step 4: Firmly press the tabs together to stick and create a water-tight seal. Continue this technique across the head until you reach the row above the ear.

Step 5: To attain a dramatic effect, notch out most of the darker color to let the contrasting color peek through.

Step 6: After the extensions are applied, use a 1.5″ curling wand to create a flowy texture.

Step 7: Begin the braid toward the back of the top. Ensure the braid falls at the top row of the extensions (to conceal those “hair secrets!”), while pulling forward the pops of color to reveal.

Final: Repeat the braid at the opposite side. Tie the ends, then pin behind the other braid. Then, there’s nothing left to do except STRUT!

By surpassing US $75,000*, Aveda set a Guiness World Records title for one of the most money raised for charity through haircuts in a 24-hour period.

Aveda stylists from over 900 salons in 15 countries worldwide volunteered their time and expertise–snipping, trimming, chopping and shaping– to create haircuts in exchange for a client’s donation. The worldwide Cut-A-Thon kicked off in Asia, undergone Australia, made its way through Europe and concluded in North America. Participating countries included: The U.S., Canada, Hong Kong, Taiwan, South Korea, Australia, Japan, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Russia, Spain, Switzerland, Turkey and UK.

The record-setting Global Cut-A-Thon was only one aspect of Aveda’s Earth Month campaign, the company’s annual month-long drive that raised US $4.6 million in 2012. This year Aveda’s global network of beauty professionals in 30 countries organized thousands of events and exceeded their monumental $5M goal, raising a groovy US $5.5 million in April 2013 to profit greater than 40 clean water organizations worldwide.

A substantial portion of that total (US $1.5 million) came from the sale of Aveda’s limited edition Light the way in which Candles. The corporate donates 100% of the acquisition price to Global Greengrants Fund, a non-profit organization that channels high-impact grants to grassroots groups working to resolve pressing environmental problems. Local efforts by caring Aveda professionals raised the rest US $4 million.

Aveda professionals in additional than 30 countries have collectively raised greater than $32 million since 1999 to aid support organizations that directly effect environmental change. Greater than $ 26 million of this amount was designated for clean water-related causes since 2007.

Aveda’s record-setting Earth Day 24 Hour Global Cut-A-Thon was a win-win, making both the realm and the folks who inhabit it rather more beautiful.

Jenine Pizza, Brand Manager for beautyADDICTS, really knows her brushes. Pizza, a top make up artist (formerly with Bobbi Brown, M.A.C. and Lancome), was instrumental inside the design for both the pro and consumer lines of brushes for beautyADDICTS.

“a pro make up artist really doesn’t need 40 brushes,” says Pizza who just wrapped up Miami Fashion Week. “I’ve learned that we will accomplish everything with just these brushes,” she says as she pulls out a handful of brushes designed for the pro and another handful designed for the shopper. “Good brushes, provided that they’re cared for correctly, can do multiple things and last a while.”

In this video Pizza goes over the brushes she believes have to be a part of every make up artists kit. “They are surely ALL you want,” she says.
