Come Through, Curls! Ariana Grande Shares a Rare Curly-Hair Selfie

Image
Image Source: Getty / Axelle / Bauer-Griffin / FilmMagic Ariana Grande has hit pause on her signature ponytail. The singer recently shared a selfie featuring her naturally curly hair, which is often hidden under long (and sometimes blond) hair extensions . "Get a load a dis," Grande captioned the post on Instagram. Though not a frequent occurrence, this isn't the first time Grande has offered a look at her curly hair . In fact, that's how she would often wear her hair at the start of her career, but she later turned to extensions after her hair became damaged due to dyeing it red to play Cat Valentine on Victorious and Sam & Cat .

Here's What It's Like to Try on a Virtual Wedding Dress, Straight From a Bride-to-Be

Image
Brides-to-be planning their wedding day are forced to make some critical decisions in the midst of the COVID-19 crisis . If their ceremonies are scheduled for the coming months, will they push back their dates or cancel the party altogether, being that social gatherings are restricted for the foreseeable future? Will they delay their honeymoons, bachelor and bachelorette parties, and showers? And what the heck are they going to do about that wedding dress that's in the works - or maybe not even decided on at all? Bridal industry leaders and fashion designers are pushing for virtual experiences in order to offer their brides service during the pandemic . Brandon Maxwell donated three wedding dresses to brides in need. Jewelry company Mociun is working with couples to solidify engagement ring and wedding band designs via FaceTime. Meredith Stoecklein, founder of LEIN Studio , is offering virtual consultations for brides going the bespoke route, where she shares sketches and m

How to Maintain Your Eyelash Extensions at Home While Salons Are Closed

Image
By the end of social distancing, you'll be a pro at root touch-ups , at-home gel manicures , and eyebrow-shaping , but let's not forget eyelash extensions on the list of ever-growing beauty services we're also DIYing right now. Anyone who's ever had eyelash extensions and endured the process of them falling out knows this isn't exactly fun - to be honest, your eyelashes can start to look wonky real fast. There is no graceful way to deal with gaps in your lash set, individual hairs facing in every possible direction, and varying eyelash lengths. Whether you are still in the beginning stages of your lash service and working on maintaining them at home or missed your last two-week eyelash extension touch-up due to salon closures and are well past the point of saving them, Ahead, Clementina Richardson, celebrity lash expert and founder of Envious Lashes , shared tips for fixing eyelash extensions at home and nursing your natural eyelashes back to health.

Kim Kardashian Is Already Planning Her Next Hair Color Change (She's Going Back to Blond)

Image
View this post on Instagram A post shared by Kim Kardashian West (@kimkardashian) on Feb 25, 2018 at 7:55am PST Kim Kardashian is already planning for her next big hair change . The reality star and KKW Beauty founder took to Instagram over the weekend to let her followers know that she plans on going back to blond soon. "My hair is gonna be so healthy after this quarantined time," she captioned a throwback photo of her platinum blond hair. "Contemplating dying it blonde when we can have human interaction again." Kardashian has gone back and forth between blond and her natural hair color for a while now, though it's been a few months since we've seen her sporting the platinum look. Of course, her trusted hairstylist Chris Appleton , who's been behind many of her best beauty looks from the last few years, cosigned her decision to go blond again in the photo's comment section. "You know my answe

Snapchat's Snap Camera Is the Beauty Hack You Didn't Know You Were Missing For Video Calls

Image
Our beauty routines in last few weeks have gone through three phases: boycotting makeup and all other aspects of our daily beauty maintenance at the start of working from home; wearing the same sweats and hair in a messy bun for more days than we can count; and rejoining at least a lighter version of our beauty routine to restore a bit of normalcy into our everyday lives. The whole no makeup, no hairstyling thing is fun and all - until you have to hop on a video call. With virtual meetings and video calls being the reality for the unforeseeable future, we're all adapting to the new work-life norm and our new work-from-home makeup routine. But for those days when you just can't seem to find the motivation to put on a full face of makeup for a 15-minute chat, Snapchat's Snap Camera for desktop is the beauty hack you didn't know you were missing. It works by syncing with your computer camera and is compatible with Zoom, Google Hangouts, Skype, and more. For virtual ha

Casual Jeans and Heels Made Me Feel Sexy on "Date Night" at Home

Image
Even though I am a fashion person and I love styling outfits, with nowhere to go and no people to see, I shunned my closet and started living out of my sweats drawer . The minute I found out we'd be on lockdown due to the spread of the coronavirus , my heeled booties and pumps started collecting dust. Seriously, I think it started happeing instantly. Save for one day , all of my "outfits," if you can even call them that, were mismatched, each piece selected for the sole purpose of comfort. I think my future husband and lockdown partner, Joey, fully expected this, if he even expected anything at all. He, too, has been wearing the same pajama pants and t-shirts. I can't even remember what he looks like in a suit, his typical daily uniform. My cat, I think, is the most confused. Part of our regularly scheduled programming in the morning involves her staring up at me from the bed as I try on different looks before pouring her a cup of "nummies" and heading out

Father Learns to Tie Daughter's Head Wrap in the Most Precious Video You'll See All Day

Image
View this post on Instagram A post shared by Beleaf In Fatherhood (@beleafmel) on Mar 25, 2020 at 8:04pm PDT While you're staying home, right now is the perfect time to brush up on different beauty skills that could use a little practice, and Glen Henry , the father behind Beleaf in Fatherhood , couldn't agree more. The stay-at-home father of four shared a heartwarming video of him attempting to tie his daughter Anaya's head wrap, and it's the most precious 30 seconds you'll watch all day. In the video, Anaya coached her dad through the process of wrapping and knotting her hair wrap. "Dad, it's like a ball," she said as she explained the technique her mom uses when she normally does it. In the end, with a little patience from both parties, Henry got it down, and the ear-to-ear grin on Anaya's face when she saw the result in the mirror said it all. "Right now is a great time to sharpen the litt

Happy Birthday, Céline Dion: See Her Wildest Looks of 2020 So Far

Image
While we may be only three months into 2020, Céline Dion already is having one of her boldest style years to date. Today, the “My Heart Will Go On” singer turns 52 years old, but her style couldn’t be more new age. The Canadian star favors unique outfits and pops of bright color in every ensemble from designer gowns to futuristic takes on athleisure. To celebrate her big day, FN rounded up her wildest looks thus far in the new decade. Between performances in New York and New Jersey during her “Courage” world tour in March, the songstress stepped out in a series of unmissable ensembles, including a $4,900 fur-trimmed puffer coat with a matching ankle-length skirt from Thome Browne over a white Balenciaga hoodie. She matched the color of her sweatshirt to the shade of her bright Alexander McQueen booties; the chunky sole Chelsea pair is currently on sale for $390 instead of its original ticketed price of $650 at Farfetch.com Céline Dion leaves her concert in New Jersey, March 8.

I'm Only Interested in Chic Stay-at-Home Clothes - This Is What I'm Buying From Zara

Image
Lots of our favorite looks only feel right when we can wear them out for everyone to see, but nonetheless, I've devoted a small portion of my wardrobe to items I've never planned on wearing out of the house. (I think we're calling them inside clothes .) There's a distinct pleasure in dressing only to suit the microclimate of your home, where one doesn't need to think about outerwear, or shoes, or well, anything too functional. So, if the Katie Holmes 's internet-famous bralette and cardigan moment never struck you as practical clothing for your regular life, maybe it's just the thing to perk up your #stayhome look . Since Katie first debuted the look, the trend has spilled into the market, giving us iterations to test-drive in our own homes. I've worn the look with jeans , but will admit that throwing it on as an alternative to my typical loungewear (read: sweatshirt and sweatpants) has provided the mood-boosting effects I was seeking in getting dress
