Rounded or Squared?

Have you ever been asked “rounded or squared” at the nail salon? Well I have, and I usually say sqaured, but lately, all of my favorite celebrities have been spotted with rounded nails! Essence Magazine’s October issue explains that “longer nails and almond shapes are at the forefront for fall”. They also suggest that nude colors are the go to hues for this season. I will be trying a longer rounded nail, but sorry Essence, I have to rock my Indique Pink!

Effortless Waves!

Hit the snooze button and let yourself sleep in today, all you need in a little evening prep work and BOOM! – sexy “slept-in” waves with no effort at all.


Wash your hair in the evening and when hair has dried to slightly damp tie it up in a high ponytail. Twist ponytail and wrap in a bun, secure with another hair tie. Let your hair air dry over night and take it down in the morning. Set your waves with some hairspray and go!

Born to Dance Style Tip: Episode 8

Laurieann Gibson’s hair on Born to Dance is as important as the choreography! Celebrity stylist Karim Odoms will be sharing his style tips on how to create beautiful, flowing hair every week.

 

 

We are going out with a bang! We decided to add more length to Laurieann’s luscious locks! We added Indique’s 30” inch PURE Wavy extensions at the bottom of the hair.

For “The Monsters Ball” we went for a wild rock and roll look using almost every iron in my kit from curling iron , flat iron , to crimping iron just for a messy, “piece-y” look .

For the finale elimination, we used a large 2” iron sectioning off hair down the middle . Starting from bottom to top wrap the hair around the iron away from the face leaving out the ends of hair to create a bigger,  bouncier waves. Complete other section again wrapping hair around iron away from the face. Fluff those bangs, smoothing into wave pattern. Lay those edges with a control paste and always smooth fly seats around the part so that Indique looks as if its growing out of your scalp!

Until next time ladies, keep it beautiful, sexy , bouncy , moving with Indique Hair & styling tips from O’Karim!

Fall Frocks

 

Transition your evening looks into the new season by keeping your hems short and your sleeves long.

Long sleeved mini-dresses are great for this time of year. The long sleeves balance things out for the cooler weather, but you can still show off the legs you worked hard for all summer long.

Add a few choice accessories and you’re ready for a night on the town.

Easy elegance!
