Ombre Hair

This new trend surfaced last summer. I initially thought it was so messy and unprofessional. But now...i am in love. I am hesitant to actually get it don't though, one: because its half way through winter and it's kinda of a summer hairstyle and two: i have black hair and i don't want the my tips to go blonde because my school's strict. So i was thinking black to dark brown? If I get it, it won't be until May or June. I really really want it though! here is an amazing example that Wendy Lam over at nitrolicious.com had her hair done at Bumble and Bumble.




oh. my. gosh. I really am in love, I want her hair so bad! What do you think?

      I love Coco so much. She stands up to eating disorders and the problem with it in the modeling industry. She is one of the most talented models out there with a jewelry line to raise awareness to human trafficking and a big advocator against eating disorders. She has done many charity works going to Hati. She is a role model and an inspiration both on and off the runway. did i mention she is an amazing irish dancer?
