Blake Lively’s Hair the New “Rachel?”

Amanda — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 02:22:13 +0000

New York Times published a whole article on Blake Lively’s gorgeous hair…that must say something! According to the article, a Google search of “Blake Lively Hair” produces 713,000 results, many of them “how to’s.” This doesn’t really come as a surprise. I mean, I have never seen a bad picture of Blake. Her hair always looks just styled enough – natural and shiny. Some people, like Blake, are born with pretty close to perfect, easy-to-manage hair. A.K.A. the complete opposite of PGH. Her stylist, Jennifer Johnson, says she lets Blake’s curls dry naturally in a simple chignon, color touch-up every 6 months and no extensions. So…is she really the next “Rachel?” I’m not going to disagree. Read the whole story here.

It’s a Curly Girl Wedding

My friend sent me this wedding video that I just had to share on PGH for two reasons – #1 the video is the best wedding video I’ve ever seen and #2 the beautiful bride has curly hair. The best man even calls the bride a “curly hair fox” in his speech. I love how she left her hair down and natural on her big day! Hope you enjoy

Curlstylist.com – New Site for Stylists

We just got word of a new website for stylists working with curly hair. It’s curlstylist.com and it is designed to help curly hair stylists with inspiration, education and real-world solutions. Because let’s face it, curly hair is more to handle than straight hair.

The concept for curlstylist.com came from Michelle Breyer and Gretchen Heber of naturallycurly.com, a site for curly girls. They saw a need for product and styling information for women and girls with naturally curly hair and created a thriving online community. Now they are branching out into the professional world of curls.

The new site will officially launch June 2009.
