I'll be the first to admit, if anyone needs a makeover, it's me. Like so many busy parents, I'm guilty of letting self-care slide to the bottom of my to-do list! But it's not too late to get a new look in time for Mother's Day and show everyone that even though we may have spent 24 hours in labor (27 in my case), we can still look like the sassy, classy women we really are. It's amazing what some fresh accessories, the perfect manicure, some makeup or a new hairstyle can do! And speaking of new hairstyles, you have to check out this Joico webisode showing how celeb hairstylist Damien Carney turns one woman's hair from housewifey to hot. Check out the before and after photos!
I see this hairstyle every day at school drop-off and pickup. There's really nothing wrong with this mom's "before" look -- it's flattering, practical and safe, definitely a "mom bob". But the transformation is amazing! She goes from a regular carpooling, snack-toting mom to a chic, stylish, sophisticated woman. This is a hairstyle you see in board rooms, at symphony concerts, at trendy restaurants. It's so bongga!
Here's the webisode (love the name: Mom Bob to Heart Throb) showing the entire process:
Obviously it's not a how-to video, but its certainly something to be inspired by, and you can bring it up on your smartphone to show it to your hairstylist. This is just one in a series of Drab to Fab webisodes from Joico Haircare. You can find them on the Joico website or on the Joico Facebook page.

Sometimes I've got to just close the door and take a 2 hour bath. Sure I'll run a little more hot water -- so sue me! When I get out I'm a new woman.
ReplyDeleteI take care of myself by pampering myself after a stressful week at work with an at home manicure, pedicure, facial, or bubble bath!
ReplyDeleteI pamper myself with a long warm bath and after a simple homemade mani and pedi.
ReplyDeleteI try to stay healthy and take time to relax. I don't try to bring out any sexiness, but rather confidence.

I follow a daily skincare regimen. NOt only is it 'self-maintenance', but it gives me a chance to escape to the bathroom for a few minutes of peace and pampering for myself!
ReplyDelete(I'd love to add some of these hair care products to my regular 'self-maintenance' routine!) :)
Thanks!
