LET’S TALK HAIR & MAKEUP
When it comes to “how will I wear my hair?” I don’t know, but if you mention this question to anyone who’s already married and who has had the wedding and probably a lot older than you, well…. there’s a particular look. They call it the “Bridal Look” and ladies, it’s sooo dated and just waiting for the stairway to heaven. No longer are you putting the exact same hairstyle on every bride or bridesmaid who graces the talent of your incredibly skilled phalanges (spirit fingers… kidding) we are mixing it up and designing the looks that make you feel your best.
Non-traditional hair styles ladies are on the rise. I’m talking Ponytails, high and low ones, Mermaid Waves (better known as beach waves), the lowest of low knot buns and simple yet effective half up/half downs. Just chuck in a couple of wicked looking braids and BOOM! There you have it! We like to call them “Lived In Hairstyles” These are hairstyles that you would wear everyday just elevated to suit your type of event. Keep reading…

There’s a reason why this hairstyle makes your jaw hit the ground because it’s that perfect amount of style versus color. I honestly think everyone should try this color, at least once in their lives. This amazing spicy copper totally accentuates this style so much that we all want to have it. But seriously, this style is coming in at top status right now. If it’s not high, it’s low and if it’s not low, it’s middle. Everyone’s loving the ponytail right now!

For the ladies with extra long thick hair, that’s too heavy to put up and too bulky to have in a bun Erin Shanley Hair has got the solution for you. Make a statement with a double fishtail braid. This look allows you to have your hair “down” but secure all day.

Trend Alert – Because even at the Grammys and all the afterparties, the top knot and a soft face frame was a massive hit. Easy to wear, easy to please. Giving us the “I just woke up like this” effortless look.

This half up half down number has been a real hit, why? Because it’s simple yet effective.
We are totally digging the less is more vibe. #livedinhairstyles

The same goes with makeup. There are pretty much three different options; Barely There Natural, Glam and Classic. Black Winged liner and Red Lip is such a vibe.

In Australia there’s a huge move happening in the way we wear makeup, while there’s a niche for everyone, gone are the days of looking at a face that doesn’t look like your own.

FULL GLAM. Ahh yes, the luxury of full coverage flawless finishes, effortlessly polished smoked out eye shadows with a hint of highlighter. Whilst some say it is more of a sculptured look, Brides dig it, celebs love it, and I wish I could do it!
