Quinn from Glee, loving the new look on her! Tried to find a picture of her whole outfit with the faded maxi skirt she wore on the first episode of Glee Season 3 but couldnt find it anywhere. Love the new trend with the different colorful hair its everywhere today, wish i didnt have such dark hair, then maybe id consider getting it done, not multicolor though, just one shade of purple!!

Side Chignon

1. Using a round brush, blow-dry hair smooth and straight, focusing on the top sections.

2. Once dry, use a large-barrel curling iron to create waves from the ears down.

3. Build height and volume at the crown by teasing hair gently with a fine-tooth comb.

4. Gather hair into a low ponytail. Twist it along the nape of your neck, pinning as you go.

5. Once you reach your ear, shape the remaining hair into curls, and pin them back over the twist.

6. Spritz strands in place.

7. To add texture, gently curl and scrunch the wispy ends with your fingertips.

8. Marvel at how gorg you look!

Half and Half

1. Use a large-barrel curling iron to create loose curls all around your head, from the ears down.

2. Part your hair in the middle, and use your fingers to loosen and separate the curls.

3. Starting halfway down the part, begin spritzing your roots with hairspray. Continue to the crown.

4. To create height and volume, tease the sprayed hair with a fine-tooth comb.

5. Use a brush to gently smooth the teased hair, and gather the sides up into a half ponytail.

6. Secure the sides with pins, then use your fingers to gently shape the curls into place.

7. End with shine spray. Try John Frieda Frizz-Ease 100% Shine Glossing Mist, at drugstores.

8. Voila! A hairdo worthy of Brigitte Bardot.

Now Thats the spirit!

A week ago, I signed up for a volunteering event that took place in a thrift store. The owners needed any help they could get their hands on to help distribute and organize the piles of clothes, kitchen equipment, furniture....etc. People came and volunteered without coming with an organization or for community service but to just help out the community. four girls in the peace club and I decided to go together and help out as much as we could. We first had to take all back plastic bags and put them on the other side so that it was easier for trucks to come and pick them up. Once we were done, we had to organize a lot of things under the same category and once we were done we went inside to the thrift shop where we had to move some of the furniture so that a company could come and clean the floors of the shop really well. While trying to get work done inside the thrift shop, i couldnt help but wander around and look at the items that were sold in the thrift store. I actually came out with things i needed and couldn't find anywhere else and got some of my friends gifts as well. It was a great experience and just helping others in anyway makes me feel good and happy, and as simple as that you learn a lot and meet a lot of different wonderful people. I have another event i will be volunteering on this weekend! Will post the pictures as soon as possible. Hope these pictures inspire you in different ways and helps you make the right decisions and help out others as well!
