Hair Rouging

This video - Gonna Get Over You by Sara Bareilles - is a fun inspiration video for the week. 

How fabulous does Sara look with this make-up & hair?  I love it! We don't get to see Sara glammed like this often and I am loving everything from the dancing, make-up & of course the voluminous hair! For an extra boost in the front of your hair like Sara, use a technique called Rouging.  You want to lift a section and comb backwards building support at the root and then smooth down. Your section can be in the front of your head or at the crown of your head.  For this video, the hairstylist opted to rouge the front of the head.  Maybe you are going for the "bigger the better" look or a more toned down rouge, it all depends on the look you are going for. The extra volume will give you dimension and be really pretty paired with make-up like seen here. 

With the right comb & hairspray your extra volume won't fall.  Yes, not even when you go to the grocery store later and bust a move ;) 

Suggested Tools:  Monroe Teasing U Brush ($9.45, not as lightweight) or the Wimex Teasing Boar Brush ($2.75, lightweight).  Aveda Controlforce Firm Hold Hair Spray ($26)

What do you think of the video? Now that's some sexy, big hair!
