Bedazzled nails, just in time for easter




So i've decided to get into the holiday this year by putting decals on. i found these cute little things in a Yodobashi camera store in Tokyo. once i saw the bunny i knew we were going to have a good easter together. Because i am a hairstylist by day i need to keep my nails as trimmed as possible, so i don't come close to competing with some of the ladies i found who really go all out for their Kawaii  style. rock on ladies, just don't scratch me!

inspiration from Japan

these girls (and guys) rock it. every year when we go to Japan, people never stop reminding me that fashion is something to have fun and play with. can't find something in your closet? wear one of everything then. if nothing matches, it all does right? coming from northern california, i have been raised with the layer method. you never know what the day will be like. could be cold in the morning, then when the fog rolls away its nice and sunny, and then by 430pm, the fog rolls in and it's cold again. or not. so these little adorable japanese women have it right. layer layer layer!

some of the haircuts i see on our adventures always makes me want to come home and chop my hair. adorable! 

short. 

Natural and feminine

A rounded bob-cut hairstyle. The longish bangs look good and feminine on nearly every face, and also make their faces look smaller.

Stylish and elegant

This is an asymmetrical bob hairstyle with clean silhouette behind the ears. Slightly permed side-hair offers soft and elegant addition to the sharp impression of bob-cut.

Natural and dainty

A cute bob hairstyle with a high regard for airiness and mosso. Some lose curls at the end are expressive of both airiness and casualness. Also delicacy is projected by bleaching hair translucent color.

medium

Elegant and vibrant

Shoulder-length layered bob hairstyle. A light perm from the top to the end allows the texture of elegant and vibrant. You can also wear a fringe as well as make a part in your bans.


Easy to style and lovely

A beloved hairstyle with medium length layered bangs which make the face look smaller. This hairstyle will look nice with any facial form and will be easy to style with benefit of using digital-perm.


Pop and brisk

A cute medium hairstyle with reflexed curls around the face. Overall slight perms make an appeal of pop and brisk texture.
It will be best for women who want to add a subtle touch to their everyday medium hairstyles.


long

Airy and trussing

This is the feminine hairstyle with some loose curls at both the top and the end. Thinning out provides the hair with airy and trussing tastes.


Richer and cute

One of the trendy styles with somewhat heavy low-layered long hair cut. With digital perming for richer and elegant atmosphere along with cuteness.


Art of the flow

This hairstyle looks pretty mosso with both the one-length and the low-layered cutting, and somewhat mushy with bangs too close to the eyes. The sides are air-wave permed along the head shape to enrich its elegant waviness. The backs are individually permed by sections of the layers to depict the art of random hair flow.
