  • This week in hair – beautyriot.com

    So I’m subscribed to a LOT of beauty e-newsletters (luckily they are pretty easy to go through quickly and they are fun.) Today I wanted to share one of the ones that’s had a bit of a face life… or hair lift I should say. Beauty Riot’s e-newsletter is now featuring weekly hairstyles. It’s short,…

  • Headband Mania
