Recreating Rihanna's "Posh Pompadour"

Hey, guys! I've been looking for different styles to try with my new short hair, and I think I've found one that I like! I attempted to recreate a Rihanna look, but I didn't use ANY heat! Not even a hooded dryer! I think the looked turned out looking pretty good, considering I didn't use any heat. Please let me know what you guys think! I uploaded a vid on Youtube so you can see the hair "in motion."

My New Hair Cut!!

Hey, guys! I know that this is a make-up blog, but I wanted to share pics of my new haircut. I think I am still in shock that all of my hair is gone!!! :o) I've NEVER EVER had my hair this short, so this will be a learning experience. Overall, I like the cut. I don't think I like the way my stylist styled it, though. She made it kind of spiky and I don't know if that's really my style. I think when I wash it I'm going to curl it and see how that looks. Anyway, enjoy the pics! I am also going to post a video on my youtube page.
