Taylor Swift inspired Updo in less than 5 Steps
The perfect hair tutorial for a simple messy bob updo in under 30 minutes! 1. First divide the hair in half and start curling in medium section and apply hairspray to set. 2. Loosely brush out curls with fingers once its cooled. 3. Loosely twist and pin hair at nape of the neck. Remember to keep loose and the messier the better! 4.

Paris Fashion Week, Alexander McQueen
McQueen is always known to bring pure drama to the catwalk with theatrical hair and makeup. This Spring Sarah Burton wanted natural hair that was very soft, touchable and more real, but this is McQueen so the hair wouldn't actually be left real. They created a tapestry-like braid by literally knitting the hair to itself with a needle and thread. "As you sew the sections back and forth and up and down, they all knot and when you pull, it becomes this subtle, woven, artisanal t


Paris Fashion Week, Giambattista Valli
Before makeup artist Val Garland gave the beauty editiors backstage a big gotcha! moment, Valli had decided that he wanted the models to look real, fresh faced and all about the skin. "But then we picked out 11 girls and decided that they came out of a disco shower. Why? Because we can." is what Val Garland said. The models were showered with pink, green, purple, blue, orange, yellow, and red sparkles in perfectly precise bolts across the brow bones. #southieroots #roots #roo


Paris Fashion Week, Chanel
Chanel brought the glamour and romance back to flying and travel this Spring back to the days when people dressed up to go to the airport. Of course hair and makeup is included in dressing up. The hair was pulled back into two low ponytails and fastened with a big silver barrette and headband done by Sam McKnight. The makeup indicated blue skies ahead with sunglass shape around the eyes with shadow. #southieroots #rootshairsalon #southboston #boston #parisfashionweek #chanel


Paris Fashion Week, Valentino
Valentino is not new to cornrows and thats for sure. However this Spring they stepped it up a notch with cornrows and prints referencing "tribal Africa". Guido lined models heads with beautiful braids that fed into one big Medusa-like bun. Although they did get into some turmoil for the poor judgment there was a lot of beauty in the detailed hair. #southieroots #rootshairsalon #southboston #boston #valentino #parisfashionweek #medusalikebun #braids #cornrows #spring #blondeha


Paris Fashion Week, Miu Miu
"Expect the unexpected" was the motto at Miu Miu at this years Fashion Week. Usually those over the age of 10 refuse to sport pigtails, we would usually be on that boat but Miu Miu's Spring show may have us all questioning ourselves. Pigtails and a sparkly crown always look adorable but Miuccia Prada gives the headpiece jagged geometric detailing and leaves the screws exposed. Dark plum lip stain changes the look from little girl to spooky. #southieroots #rootshairsalon #bost
