BlogHer asked if I wouldn’t mind choosing a video from their vast inventory of BlogHerTV segments and recreate one of the beauty or hair tutorials to share with you… so of course I agreed! I looked around for a bit, learned a few new tips and tricks, and settled on this fun little ditty below; …
Hair Tutorial: Soft Romantic Beach Waves w/ Tapered Ceramic Iron
A few weeks ago my trusty 1″ Hot Tools curling iron finally called it quits. I think I bought it in or around 2003, so almost ten years of soft waving and amazing curls makes for a good buy, in my opinion. It remains my favorite, I must admit. But while searching for a replacement …
Hair Tutorial + Video: High French Twist Faux Hawk…
A few weeks ago I styled my hair in this high French twist {featured in this outfit post} and had requests for an instructional hair tutorial. So here it is 😉 It’s a fun look because it sort of mimics a faux-hawk or a short haircut if you slick the sides back. If you leave …
Hair Tutorial | Big Floppy Hair Bow | Gaga in Real Life
I know I’ve seen hair tutorials for the little half ponytail hair bow and for the Lady Gaga top-o-the-head style hair bow, but I had never seen one quite like this and I had to try it out. I thought the steps were easy enough to follow without a video so I tried something new …
The Hunger Games French Braid
The Hunger Games braided hair style is a-buzzin’ at the moment, so I thought I’d braid one up and give you a quick little semi-tutorial for it, just in case you were interested. The braid is basically my Side French Braid low up-do hair tutorial but left out instead of pinned up and braided UNDER …
Beauty | Hair Tutorial // Pretty Wrapped Ponytail with a Twist
I actually created and planned this hair tutorial last week then randomly watched the Elie Saab Spring Couture show and realized my creation was a very similar style to the hair worn in the show. And though it is gorgeous, it wasn’t my original inspiration but I felt a bit obligated to refer to it. …
Zig Zag French Braid Hair Tutorial
I randomly created this fun snake french braid {or zig zag french braid} the other day and though I haven’t seen it before, it doesn’t mean it doesn’t already exist somewhere with an entirely different name. But obviously, I had to share it with you. It’s easy but difficult, if that makes sense. The one …

French Braid w/ Cascading Hair Tutorial // DIY Waterfall Braid
I’m not the originator of this hair style but I’ve gotten so many requests for it, I thought I’d give it a go for you. I don’t know what it’s called either so I haven’t researched it and/or found any other tutorials for it …thus, this is my version of it, and I’ve dubbed it …

Hair Tutorial | Messy Rope Braids with Low Bun or Long
These little rope braids are a fun way to add a little style with your own hair, creating a sort-of headband of sorts. Your hair doesn’t need to be extremely long, but you do need some length to cover the top of your head with. If you have layers, you could instead create a tiny …
Hair Tutorial / Pretty Side French Braid low Updo

Hair Tutorial Video : Perfect Curls
I shot this little hair video on Christmas Eve as I was getting ready to go out. Needless to say, I was in a bit of a rush NOTE TO SELF: don’t do a hair video before you have to go somewhere. Come on Maegan, use your head! – – but it seems so logical, …
Dramatic Curls with Sponge Rollers
I bore quite easily of my own reflection in the mirror so playing with different hairstyles and makeup can quickly and painlessly alter my appearance, risk-free. It’s fun to not only look different but also to role-play a little & explore my identity as I did playing dress-up as a little girl {and as an …
Easy Holiday Hairstyles {video}
This was actually part of my How to Hot Roller your Hair tutorial but it was too long to include it …so it works as a bit of a holiday hair tutorial video instead. Towards the end, I’ve recreated my “Messy Side Bun” but in the center so it’s really just a “Messy Low Bun-Twisty-thing” …
