Fall has arrived!
Yes, it's true, fall has arrived but it certainly doesn't feel like it here in Northern California! The forecast calls for temps in the low to mid 90's this week. Ouch!
That said, the first official day of fall was September 22nd, so we are officially excited by fall colors, specifically the brunette's! Check out our brunette inspiration....
Do you feel like going dark for fall? Come see us!

Inspired by braids...+ a shop special!
When I told my husband recently that I was going to grow "long hippy hair", he just sort of looked at me and didn't comment. I should expect this from him I suppose. Especially considering since I've known him my hair has been long, short, layered, blonde, brown, red, highlighted, black, with bangs and without.
I am lucky to have such a wonderful and talented stylist as Ms. Rozlyn! I received a compliment from a stranger for every single one of those style and color combos. All of that said I guess this makes me a hair-brave sort of lady....but it's easy to be brave when you can sit in the chair of your stylist and say, "do whatever you want".
But let's get back to the subject at hand, shall we? With my hair being a very cute little pixie, I told my husband "I'm going to grow long hippy hair".....now, why would I even attempt something as difficult as growing my 2 inch hair to the middle of my back? Well, because of braids of course!
I mean, have you seen all of the fabulous braids around lately?
So basically, I want some braids!

You are what you eat.....and so is your hair! {Part 2}
Welcome back to part two! (Part 1 can be found here)
Let's talk about more healthy foods for healthy hair, and again, we've included recipe ideas to help you get these foods into your body.
6. Eggs
Did we mention protein last week? Thought so! Eggs are a great source of protein and also contain biotin and vitamin B-12 to make your hair say yay.

6. Eggs
Did we mention protein last week? Thought so! Eggs are a great source of protein and also contain biotin and vitamin B-12 to make your hair say yay.
Check out these yummy egg recipes...
Baked Eggs in Tomato Cups |
Artichoke, Leek and Potato Frittata |
7. Whole Grains
I don't know about you, but finding a reason bread is good for me is a good thing! It's also filled with zinc, iron and vitamin B.
Here are some tasty ways to eat those whole grains...
Easy Whole Grain Artisan Bread |
Whole Grain Salad with Beets and Goat Cheese |
8. Oysters
This one surprised me. Maybe this is a reason to make a trip to the ocean too? Oysters are good for hair because they contain a high amount of a powerful antioxidant - zinc.
So, how do you like your oysters?
Oysters with Lime Vinagrette |
Pasta with Oysters, Shallots, Garlic & Tomatoes |
(pair this with a whole wheat pasta and get two good hair foods in one dish!)
9. Low-fat Dairy Products
That's right, drink your milk. Calcium is an important mineral for hair growth.
Don't want to drink plain old milk?
Here are some other ways to get that dairy...
Frozen Blackberry Yogurt |
Zucchini, Tomato and "Ricotta" Tartelettes |
(these have a whole grain crust and 1% cottage cheese, another two for one!)
10. Carrots
No wonder why bunnies are so soft! Filled with vitamin A, carrots are good for our vision and a healthy scalp.
There are plenty of other ways to eat carrots other than just in your salad...
Thyme Roasted Carrots |
Warm Spiced Carrots and Chick Peas |
(Yet another two in one - carrots & beans!)
That concludes the top ten healthy foods for your hair! We hope you are inspired to eat, cook and enjoy strong, healthy and beautiful hair as a result.
