Style Alert: Side Bun

I started the month out talking about a very convenient, quick, and easy style: The Bun. So I wanted to close out the month with an equally convenient, quick and easy style that gives a slight variation to the former post…the SIDE bun!

Brows Fouls!

I often ask my readers what they want to hear about on my blog. I do it to get some fresh ideas and of course to include you all and cater to what you'd actually like to read about! Last week I did a post called, "My Top Picks: LockStyles for Men" as per suggestion from one of my male readers. I wanted to continue in that same vein this week by addressing a readers suggestion to write about eyebrows.

When I originally got the request to write about brows I was a little surprised at myself for not having considered those little bushy friends we keep at the top of our peepers! They are so small and seemingly insignificant but make a HUGE difference in our overall appearance and even sometimes in the overall perception of who we are as individuals.

My Top Picks: LockStyles for Men

So last week on Instagram (@Rahkua_LoveLossLies) one of my male readers asked about style suggestions for guys. I thought I'd compile a nice list of guy hairdos that were cool, crazy, and/or fun. Of course there are lots of guy haircuts, braids, etc that are cool too, but I'll focus on guys with dreadlocks for this particular post (the requester has locs). 

These looks come from a variety of places like Pinterest, and a couple cool Instagram account I follow like @loc_revolution and @loclivin

Here's my top 15:

FEATURED: Princess Linzz's Lair

Style Alert: The Bun

Probably my most frequented hairstyle is the bun. It is a quick, simple, and cute style and perfect for those hot summer days when the last thing I want is 36 inches of hair heating my back and neck! I pair the bun with a variety of styles on the front, unlocked part of my hair from one and two strand twists to flat twists and braids.
