Growing Out Bangs

I tend to want to change up my hairstyles and my appearance a lot. I also tend to change them spontaneously. About a month or so ago I decided one afternoon that I HAD TO HAVE bangs. I have curly hair and usually that means a no - no for bangs. I've had bangs before and they turned out pretty good, so I decided to chop my hair off.

What I always forget after drastically changing my hair is that in a month or so, I am tired of the change. So, now I am growing my bangs back out. My hair grows super slow, I'm starting to look into getting some supplements so that it will grow faster, but in the mean time I NEEDED something to do with my bangs.

I came across an article that has really good ideas for styling your hair when growing out your bangs.

8 Hairstyles to Try When Growing Out Your Bangs

1. Sideswept Bangs ( I can't really pull this one off with curly hair. )


2. Slick them Back
 

3.  Braid them! (This is my FAVORITE)
 


4. Give them some Lift ( I probably do this one most often)
 

5. Keep them MOISTURIZED!! ( I use this one because it doesn't contain any sulfates or silicones)

6. Pick a Part... ( I usually do a deep part on the left side)
  

7. Don't wear the same style everyday! Change it up so that the bangs don't grow out only in one direction.


8. Accessorize!

Let it Go Cover

It has been a LONG time since I have posted. So sorry!

In my last post I posted my Within Temptation cover. I'm posting another cover today. With all the hype for Frozen, I decided to cover "Let it Go" (Idina Menzel). I love the song and I love the movie as well (and I love Idina Menzel).

I've been learning how to record songs a little bit but still have a LONG LONG way to go. I used a program called Audacity to record the song and then used Windows Movie Maker to put the song in a video form. I don't have a working camera/video recorder right now, so I didn't make a true video, maybe that will be one of the next things I dive into learning about.

For some reason Blogger isn't uploading the video, so I'm leaving a link to it here.

I'll try uploading it again in a few hours or tomorrow. I'm not sure why it isn't working....
