Ombre Manicure
I had a ton of people ask me about my ombre mani and how I did it. I saw it somewhere on the world wide web and I wish I could say where, but it has long since escaped my memory. Here is how I did it: You need two shades of the same color. The darker shade ideally needs only one coat. The lighter polish should be a color that builds as you layer it. With the darker color, paint just the tip of the nail, like you would for a french manicure (yellow guideline). Finish up with a top coat (of course!). If you try this out, I'd love to see your results so please do share!

I feel like I should rename this blog to “Hairstyles for lazy people and art students”, because this is seriously the PERFECT way to wear your hair if you are like me and don’t wash your hair daily.
