2015 – Upgrade Your Look

Bring on the New Years Resolutions, Affirmations, Goals, etc. It’s 2015 (holy crap it’s January) and while many will take on some sort of dieting/weight loss benchmark, we would also like to remind you that looking good isn’t just about what weight you are. Don’t forget your makeup and HAIR obviously have a huge impact on the way you look and ultimately feel about yourself. We at Mane Interest believe there is at the very least a correlation if not a direct relationship between having a gorgeous mane and an increase in confidence. No, we don’t have some scientific study to back up this statement, but whatever, do we really need one? Take care of yourself and your hair and find out for yourself if you feel better.

To start of 2015 with some appropriate inspiration, here’s a refreshing before and after by hair stylist Marnie, based out of The Fox and The Hair Salon in Wollongong, Australia. Before was over processed and just, well, bad. After is so much better – shiny, healthy, and gorgeous.

Ombre Done Right

Doing ombre correctly is all about the blend. The gradual lightening should appear as if it grew out that way, and not that someone processed it. This ombre done right color is by Sarah Armstrong out of the Hair By Design Salon in Mount Eliza, Australia.

Oh My Bronde

Absolutely in love with this color that doesn’t quite fall on the scale of blonde or brunette, but somewhere fabulously in between. Bronde should officially be a word, at its own hair color category, don’t you think? Color by Natan Correia, based in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
