From Long And Listless To Short And Shaved

Bella Breakdown I have let my hair grow out for just over two years now. Having an attachment to my hair is an understatement. There are a lot of people, both women and men, who are really attached to their long hair.

We Miss These 90’s Beauty Trends

Bella Breakdown There is such an obsession with everything involving the 1990’s that I have to wonder, was that the golden age? Or, are the people of our generation just suckers for nostalgia? Either way there’s no question that the 1990’s brought us some really fantastic beauty trends. Some of which are making a major comeback in 2018. 1. Hair Styles Hairstyles ranged from “The Rachel” a long, layered bob, to the short pixie look rocked by Halle Berry and Toni Braxton. We had the candy curls that Mary J. Blige made popular, and let’s be honest boosted the...
