10 Sexy Hair Tips - Tip #10

Tip #10. Another great and easy way to change your look is to add braids. A pair of braids twisting back from your face will give a casual, fun twist to any up do or down do you want.

Now get out there and rock those locks!

10 Sexy Hair Tips - #9

Tip #9. For a quick change to your every day look, try adding clip in extensions. They can be any color you can imagine, they will add some pop and pizazz without the huge commitment of actually dying your hair.

10 Sexy Hair Tips - #8

Tip #8. For a quick and easy style, you can do a fast updo. 

Tease the hair around the crown of your head with a fine-tooth comb, then spray with of hair spray. 

Next, brush the hair to smooth it out a bit, do not go down to your roots, as this will get rid of any of the teasing you did, and then pull everything back into a high, loose bun. 

Pull a few pieces to fall around your face and viola! You have a rocking, sexy, simple updo.

10 Sexy Hair Tips - #7

Tip #7. Don't brush too soon. When blowdrying your hair, separate tangles with fingers until hair is about 80 percent dry then brush. You want to make sure your fingers glide through hair effortlessly before introducing a brush to wet or even damp hair. If you don't you will stretch and snap off strands of hair.

10 Sexy Hair Tips - #6

6.Use hot rollers. These babies add volume to even the heaviest or flattest hair. Place them in three rows, rolled back away from your face. They will add volume and even help control hair with frizz.

Sexy Hair Tips - #5

Tip #5. Dirty hair is easier to style. Weird, but true. It's more manageable and has better texture that will hold the curls and shape of any looking you are trying for. If you have to wash your hair everyday, you can sprinkle a little bit of baby powder into your hair to give it a better texture.

10 Sexy Hair Tips - #2

Tip #2: To keep your hair from getting dry and frizzy even after swimming or laying out by the pool use a good leave in conditioner. Our Conditioner of choice? Enjoy's Conditioning Spray. This can be used right after your shower as a good leave in conditioner or throughout the day whenever you hair is starting to feel brittle.

1. Use a good thermal protectant when using hot tools. - Best one out there is Enjoy's Shine Spray! This little pink spray bottle has the best thermal protectant as well as shine enhancement you can get. With no added alcohol, it will keep your hair looking luscious even in the worst heat.

Top 10 Must Do's for Sultry Summer Beauty!

1. Use a sunscreen on your face.

2. Stay-proof your eye makeup. For long lasting shadow, don't use eye cream. Use a eye primer this helps keep the shadows from creasing. The primer helps the shadow to cling to so it lasts longer.

3. Drink 64 ounces of water daily.

4. Always clean your face daily. Cleanse tone and moisturize.

5. Clean your makeup brushes weekly. They carry bacteria as well as muddying up your finished look.

6. Stop shine add glow. Use blotting papers to get rid of that unsightly "I'm hot". If you need to perk up your makeup too, blot first, and then follow up with a dusting of pressed powder. This takes away that shine but leaves the summer glow.

7. Switch out thick lipsticks. Try using different color of gloss or tinted lip balm for that natural lip.

8. Use waterproof mascara.

9. Go sheer on the face. Switch to sheer versions of your go-to lip and eye hues.

10. Lighten up on your face makeup. Swap foundations for tinted moisturizer. These sheer formulas look and feel airier on skin and are less likely to turn cakey on steamy days.

Hair & Makeup by VIP-CAT Makeup Academy

FAB Shows is a result of founder Jessica Stout's passion for animal rescue and advocacy, and her love of all things fashion. A self-proclaimed clothing hoarder that is on the verge of being an animal hoarder (we kid), Jessica decided to bring her two loves together to see what would come of it.

What came was something awesome that caught-on like wildfire. After the success of her first show, Pits and Fash, the "FAB Show" name was created and the rest will go down in history.

Proceeds Raised From this Event Were Donated to the Folsom Zoo Sanctuary to help build Bigger and Better Exhibits for the Animals they house.

The Sacramento Examiner covered this wonderful event in am article and slide show!:
