DIY Honey Facial Mask For Acne and Scarring Since I've gone natural, lots of people have written in with great tips and ideas about fixes for my skin and hair.

Quick Hair Styles For The Beach When throwing on a bikini and packing your beach bag, you hardly have time to think about styling your hair. With these simple updos, your beach hair style will be a no brainer. A scarf or bandana is a fantastic option for the beach! Throw your hair back into a ballerina bun and tie one around your head. Especially good for girls with bangs (you can just tuck them back into the band). This is a great updo when you're heading to the beach. Before you hit the waves, make sure to wrap the pony into a bun so that when you emerge and your hair dries, you have loose beachy waves. Another braided option that looks hard to do is actually very simple. Part hair in the center and braid each side. When in a hurry with no time to even slip in a bobby pin, a simple braid is a safe bet.
