Hair

Valentine's Day Swag

Valentine's Day is rapidly approaching, and I'm looking for a hairstyle to rock that will send my hubby's heart racing! Below are pics of a few styles I've found that I may just cop for the big day. Check 'em out:

#1. Big Curls

I'm really digging these big curls Kendra Wilkinson is sporting. I like the way she has one side pulled back, with a swoop bang on the other side. I should be able to accomplish this look with either a roller set, or by flat ironing my hair and then setting the hair on rollers. Place a few bobby pins on the side and voila!



#2. Pompadour

I know from experience that styles that place height at the crown are most flattering to my face. Thus, I could see myself wearing some sort of pompadour with big hair all around, much like how Christina Milian has her hair in this pic. The thing I like most about this look is that I could probably recreate it without using heat, as a bunout or braidout would yield similar results.



#3. Fluffy Pony

I love the fullness of Miss Ciara's textured ponytail! This is another look that features height at the crown, and I think I could achieve this style by adding extensions (via clip ins) and doing a bunout on dry, stretched out hair. Heat may not be necessary if I can stretch out my curls while air drying. Slicking all my hair into a bun and wearing a full phony pony would also do the trick!



#4. Sophisticated Updo

If I want to go for a more sophisticated look, I could rock this updo a la Keyshia Cole. This could be duplicated by flat ironing my hair, slicking it back into a high ponytail, and forming large pin curls. I could easily see a pretty flower or some other accessory adding a flirty, feminine touch to the look.



How are you planning to wear your hair this Valentine's Day?

My honey and I don't usually do much for Valentine's Day. However, I do want to cook for him so I think that I will be doing a little something to my hair. I have been wearing my hair in protective styles for a while because of the east coast winter weather. I think I will probably just rock my natural curls. He encouraged me to go natural but rarely gets to see my hair out, so it might be a treat for both of us!
I think that Christina Milian's hair is the bestest out of the 4! ;)
