Source: George Doyle / Getty Brands, professional hairstylists, and students gathered in New Jersey for the 10th Annual Extensions Expo this past weekend! A fabulous show where professionals and students could learn the ins and out of the hair business, network with fellow stylists and take their artistry to the next level, this event was the place to be over the weekend! The annual event kicked off with various hair education presentations ranging from styling wig units to the difference between cutting weaves, natural hair and relaxed hair and the art of advertising. There was also a presentation that highlighted the causes of hair loss and learning how to properly care and treat Black hair. While we all love experimenting with our manes, it’s always important to learn how to properly care for our hair to promote growth and prevent hair loss and “The Causes of Hair Loss” presentation did just that! Source: Tatayana Yomary / Tatayana Yomary “So many elements can impact our hair growth cycle from genetics to our diet,” Doris Mosely, certified trichologist and entrepreneur shares. “In order to promote growth, it’s important to adopt a healthy lifestyle and utilize products that are essential to your hair’s health. With so many products available, it’s easy to find a product line that does the bare minimum for your hair. Always do your research.” Source: Tatayana Yomary / Tatayana Yomary Personally, one of my favorite moments from the even was witnessing the styling contests! One in particular, the weave competition, showcased the talent and versatility of the participants. Stylists were given the task of creating a specific quick weave hairstyle in only an hour. With only a bag of tools ranging from extensions, styling products, tools and a picture of the hairstyle they needed to emulate, professional stylists and students raced to complete their chic looks. From blonde bob slays, cropped cuts, fluffy fros and everything in between, I would have never thought you could create hair magic in only 60 minutes! No hair expo is complete without training and the Extensions Expo delivered! With an array of hair weaving classes and hair extensions training, stylists were able to brush up on their skills and learn new tips and tricks to further their careers. Best of all, guests were also able to enjoy hair demos while asking questions to professional stylists. If that’s not enough, there were over 50 makeup brands, hair vendors and networking on hand for guests to enjoy. DON’T MISS:  Are You A Stylist Living In The NYC Metro Area?

TRIED IT: Mayvenn Hair Released A Wine Colored Shade That You Need This Season

Visit link:

I needed a hair pickme up. While I love my natural hair and black zig-zag coils, I wanted to tjuz up my look and head into the Fall/Winter season in style. I admit, coloring my hair is something I find a bit intimidating. I worry about the health of my natural hair and if the chemicals will weaken it, or worse, make it fall out. I didn’t want braids for Fall (this will be my Winter style), but I definitely wanted a fashionable protective style. Mayvenn Hair , came to the rescue. Source: Slaven Vlasic / Getty If you’re keeping up with the Fall/Winter 2017 trends , you know that red and particularly, burgundy, is all the rage. It’s been all over the runway and trickling to stores near you. Fashion definitely transitions into the beauty space as well and Mayvenn Hair took the leap, releasing pre-dyed virgin hair. I’ve used Mayvenn Hair before to achieve this fab NYFW look , so I was excited to try their latest product. No surprise, it didn’t dissapoint. Mayvenn released this red-burgundy hair with purple undertones and it is HOT. When I took the hair to my hairdresser to install, she instantly fell in love. “ What hair is this? ” she cooed. The hair is soft and and the closure hair actually matched the bundle (something that I’ve had problems with in the past). One of my favorite things about this hair is that it looks and feels expensive, but it’s actually affordable. My 18″ loose wave bundle cost $84.00 and I had two for my install plus a $99.00 14″ loose wave closure. RELATED:   GET THE LOOK: Choose The Right Weave For You With Mayvenn Hair Extensions You need to give this hair about two good washes before installing (I did not). If you don’t, some of the pink in the dye will transfer (lightly) onto your clothes (but washes out). After the second wash, I felt as if the color looked even more vibrant. The hair feels good and looks great. I wore it in multiple styles from bangs, to a side part to down the middle. You can definitely re-use this hair. The hair itself became a statement accessory. No matter where I went, I always received compliments. People were most enthralled by the color. It’s so unique with it’s purple-burgundy hue. The hair definitely made me feel sexy and you will definitely stand out from the crowd and look like the fashionista you are. I wore the hair for 6 weeks and am letting my natural hair breathe but the minute I took it out, I wanted to put it right back in. Many celebs have been trying the red hair look this season, including Cynthia Bailey (who also went red for the first time, like me!). This look is fresh and fierce for this season and will still be hot in 2018. Beauties, are you feeling this red hair? If you try Mayvenn’s burgundy hair, I want to see! Tag me @TheIslanDiva or @HelloBeautiful and show me your style. Not into red? Still check out Mayvenn Hair.  They have some beautiful colors including chocolate brown, blonde (with brown roots), blonde, caramel brown, and more.  Nevertheless, their bright burgundy is a win in my book!

Exclusive: Celebrity Hair Expert Reveals How To Prevent Hair Loss While Using Extensions

LOS ANGELES, CA – OCTOBER 26: Actress Yaya DaCosta, hair detail, attends The Paley Center For Media’s Hollywood Tribute To African-American Achievements on October 26, 2015 in Los Angeles, California. (Photo by Michael Kovac/Getty Images for Paley Center For Media) Angelo David Talks New Hair Extension Trends & End Hair Breakage It’s the holiday season, so that means many people want to look their best as they attend holiday parties and spend time with loved ones. With that in mind, BOSSIP spoke with celebrity hairstylist and hair care expert Angelo David, of the Angelo David Salon in Manhattan, about how you can protect yourself from hair loss without sacrificing the fun, beauty and variety of using hair extensions.” BOSSIP: What are some of the newest methods of application to get extensions? AD: “Tape-in hair extensions have taken over the hair extension market because they are safe and easy to apply. Using a cylinder attachment method is also popular. Both of these methods rely on re-useable hair extensions. Matching the client’s hair color, thickness, texture, density and length is very important when creating a seamless look with these methods.” BOSSIP: What are some of the dangers of improperly applied extensions? AD: “Just a few include permanent hair loss, bald patches, breakage and headaches. That’s why at Angelo David, our Couture Extensions are completely customized for a natural look and a perfect fit. They can also solve almost any hair challenge, including thinning hair and hair loss. We offer dozens of application methods, and all use 100% human hair extensions. During the consultation, we match the client’s own hair to the extensions for a perfect color and texture match.” THE NEIGHBORS – “The One With Interspecies F-R-I-E-N-D-S” – After a botched game night leaves Jackie doubting her and Debbie’s friendship, they go for makeovers by Shirley (guest star Wendy Williams) at a salon that specializes in African American hair care – hairstyles ensue. Also in the episode, Amber and Reggie continue to explore their biological differences and bond over nature programming, while Dick’s plan to get Marty in shape backfires and results in an injury that brings Larry face-to-face with the realities of Earth’s healthcare system, on “The Neighbors,” FRIDAY, OCTOBER 11 (8:31-9:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network. (Photo by Carin Baer/ABC via Getty Images) JAMI GERTZ BOSSIP: How can women protect themselves from hair loss from extensions? AD: “1. Choose the right hair extensions for your hair, see an expert and do not take any shortcuts. Do your research. 2. Use the correct hair brush. I recommend Angelo David Paddle Brushes ( $35, $55 and $65 at http://www.angelodavid.com ). My brushes promote healthier hair and stimulate the scalp through an ideal balance of naturally conditioning boar bristles and gently separating nylon bristles. Precise bristle placement ensures tangle-free brushing and inhibits split ends. All these brushes have double-cushioned, flexible padding that adjusts to the contours of the scalp and a balanced handle for excellent grip and control. They’re great for blow drying and brushing both natural and Couture hair. 3. Hair extensions must be brushed before you wash your hair. Do not wash your hair under a sink or with your head flipped upside down, since this can encourage tangling. Shampoo your hair in the shower. 4. When shampooing, apply the shampoo when your hair is wet, and be very gentle. Stroke your hair instead of scrubbing and rubbing it.”

Teresa Giudice: Afraid She’ll Go Bald in Prison! Reality Star Fights to Keep Hair Extensions Behind Bars!

Even though Teresa Giudice is still fighting her prison sentence , it seems she’s gradually coming to terms with the fact that she’ll soon be locked up. Teresa was sentenced to 15 months , as a result of a plea deal, which means she can’t contest her conviction (though she’s certainly been trying).   She can, however, continue to act like a delusional diva and pay an army of lawyers to make the experience as comfortable and painless as possible. First, Teresa tried to land a spot in the prison that inspired Orange is the New Black (seriously), now she’s asked her legal team to fight for her right to fake hair:  “Teresa has had her attorney inquire about keeping the hair extensions,” a source tells Radar Online. “She will need to take out her extensions before beginning her prison sentence.” The insider says Giudice “relies on the extensions to give her the look of a full head of hair.” Teresa’s hair is apparently “very thin,” and she doesn’t have much of it.  The source says the extensions “cost Teresa thousands of dollars a year” and she receives new ones every two months. “She is genuinely afraid she’s going to end up bald by the time she leaves prison in two months,” says the insider. Watch The Real Housewives of New Jersey online at TV Fanatic to appreciate Teresa’s full head of lush, fake hair. 11 Teresa Giudice GIFs That Should Worry Her Fellow Inmates 1. Table Flipping Fiend Teresa Giudice is not gonna take any crap. Her table-flipping reputation will precede her in prison, thanks to The Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 1.

Joseline Hernandez to Be Fired From Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta After BITING Security Guard?!

The more information that comes out about the Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta reunion fight , the more ridiculous the whole thing sounds. Case in point: Joseline Hernandez bit a piece of a security guard’s flesh off. The brawl on the set erupted , according to cast and crew, after Benzino called Stevie J a crack head, causing Stevie J to charge at his co-star. Stevie J’s girlfriend slash fake wife Joseline then got into it. Sneak-attacking Benzino’s fiance Althea, Joseline hit her in the face SO hard that everyone on the set heard a crack … then she yanked out her weave. Talk about adding insult to injury right there … LITERALLY. It worse from there, as Joseline went after Waka Flocka Flame’s wife, Tami Rivera, pulled at her weave as well, prompting Waka’s mom (seriously) to intervene. Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta Reunion Fight Waka’s mom reportedly punched Joseline in the head and ripped out her extensions in defense of Tami, at which point security finally got to Hernandez. Security booted Joseline off the set, but on her way out the door, she elbowed Mimi Faust in the stairwell and SHOVED HER DOWN THE STAIRS. And we haven’t even gotten to the most ridiculous part yet! When a security guard tried to subdue Joseline a second time after the attack on Mimi, she bit him in a fit of rage, tearing a piece of his flesh off. It’s not clear from where, but that’s a secondary point here. Not surprisingly, in the wake of this insanity, a number of cast members are making a play to get the Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta producers to fire Joseline . No word on whether that’ll happen … but wow. Just wow. 29 Craziest Celebrity Fights 1. Dance Moms: Abby Lee Miller-Kelly Hyland Fight! Abby Lee Miller of Dance Moms goes at it with Kelly Hyland in this clip from Season 4 Episode 7.
