Michelle Obama has a new hairdo!

Posted at 1:53 AM • No Comments

Michelle Obama is sporting a new hairstyle. The new hairdo isn’t as elegant like what happened in July last year. However, the First lady surely has a new haircut which looks like an above-the-shoulder bob.

She was seen with a shorter, above-the-shoulder bob when she accompanied U.S. President Barack Obama to Wilmington, Del., to attend the funeral of Vice-President Joe Biden’s 92-year-old mother, Jean.

The latest hairstyle of Michelle Obama is creating quite a buzz–it’s a sleek, full-bodied and blunt-cut bob which might remind you of the 1920’s actress Louise Brooks. This happens to be her first hairstyle of 2010 and sources say that this is the first time she has publicly appeared with her hair down in more than two months.

The first lady had allowed her hair to grow longer last year. Since November, she wore it mostly in an updo, tucked under or pulled into a tight bun. Second week of 2010 saw a new Michelle Obama hairstyle in which she cut off at least five centimeters of her dark locks with professional hair shears.

Michelle Obama’s new hairdo could possibly mean a serious return of the bob. Her blunt-cut bob is a strange choice of hairstyle since it is not so popular these days. A few celebrities who are seen sporting a bob are Victoria Beckham, Katie Holmes, Eva Longoria and Gwyneth Paltrow.

I think the new Michelle Obama hairdo has got connection with two special occasions for the Obama’s. The first lady turned 46 on Sunday, and next Wednesday marks the couple’s first year as President and first lady of the United States.

How to create hair that looks natur...

Posted at 7:44 AM • No Comments

Each one of us likes to try different hairstyles once in a while. Sometimes we innovate styles our self or copy celebrity hairstyles. People who visit salons regularly would allow their hairstylist to create his own version of a hair ’do in which he may use hair shears and other barbering tools.

Have you ever noticed how naturally straight-haired celebrities show up at events with hair that doesn’t just look curly — it looks naturally curly. Their stylists must be using curling irons to create waves or curls in the hair to create curly celebrity hairstyles. There are different curling irons that can be used for to achieve different results but Nalu Waver allows you to do the wave in a whole new way!

Nalu is the Hawaiian word for wave, and like waves no two curls are ever alike. This iron was designed to enable a stylist to create hair that looks naturally curly. By weaving the hair through the barrels a stylist can add volume and create many different curl shapes and formations.

By weaving hair around and through the two rods, the size and spacing creates a more natural-looking shape, but without the frizz many naturally wavy women deal with. That smoothness is due to tourmaline, which emits shine-enhancing negative ions. Furthermore, it’s enriched with antibacterial silver to keep hair from smelling burnt or dirty.

This curling iron heats up quickly and has simple hair-type settings. The only catch in using Nalu Waver is that it cannot be operated by a single person. You’ll need an extra set of hands because it’s impossible to maneuver and hold it on your own.

Curls can add an alluring bounce to your hair and using a curling iron is a good option if you have naturally straight hair. However, if you decide to use Nalu Waver you must have a skillful friend or your stylist to assist you to achieve best results.
