Susie Smith is an amazing expert when it comes to hair and hair extensions. She makes it look effortless and it's because she's certified in a many types of extensions. Check out what she does with Ryka who adds some serious blonde pops to her long dark locks. She looks stunning! Get the look of highlights without the time or the damage to the hair. The cost is about the same as chemical highlights, doesn't fade and lasts just as long (maybe longer). You can add in fullness by adding in shorter extensions to give your hair more depth and create dimension with light and dark extensions mixed in-- just like chemical highlighting but without damaging your hair. Makin Waves is in Downtown Huntington Beach!! www.makinwavescorp.com Thanks to Kimmy, Ryka and the amazing Susie for her time in showing off what a celebrity goes through to change their hair color, style and length. What a celebrity does costs a lot of money and takes a chunk of time but they don't have to worry about damage so much. Now you can do something similar by keeping it simple and use pops of color to substitute for chemical treatments!

Hair extensions are a huge part of the celebrity hair world but for most people, they think they can't afford hair extensions at all because a full set can run from $800 to $2000 depending on what you want to do. Plus there is the upkeep and it's that same amount every 4 months! However not everyone needs to spend $1000 or so to be able to wear extensoins! Susie Smith is known for her work with hair extensions and works with a lot of celebrities (shhhh. I can't tell!). She is certified in all the different types she works with in her salon and for celebs will even go on location. She's here to show you just how easy and affordable some of the more fun ways of using extensions can be and how do-able it is-- and it doesn't require the amount of time or efforr that it does to color your hair (nor does it cause the same kind of damage providing your stylist is certified in that specific brand's process) In this video, she shows us the fun stuff on how to do it! www.makinwavescorp.com/ Stay tuned!!

The Emmys 2012 are now over and the critiquing of the fashions seems to be over -- but not really. People are still looking at those celebrities and thinking can I wear that dress. This is a series of reviews of women ( who walked the red carpet that caught our eye here at LA-Story.com in either a positive or negative way. Fashion Designer Karen Starr Delloiacono and I selected Hayden Panettiere for Celebrity Style Slam #3! Heidi Klum caught our attention because she was wearing a Alexandre Vauthier Spring 2012 Couture gown in sky blue that often had a green tint when on the red carpet. The critics agree to disagree on the shade but the one thing that was stunning about the dress was not just how high they were (bordering on exposure) but also not that there was one- but TWO! The dress tends to remind me entirely of something found in the expensive holiday lingerie section of Victoria's Secret catalog. Take a listen to the podcast discussion with Karen Starr DelloIancono. Here's the final rating on this "dress" (that masquerades as a nightgown or is it the reverse?) Heidi Klum you have an array of Project Runway designers to choose from- why this dress? You could have had anyone design you a one of a kind dress that would have shown off your "assets" better and still give you some coverage. Rating: Karen Starr DelloIacono: 1 star Stevie Wilson: 1 star Final Rating: 1 star This is the LAST of the Celebrity Style Slam for Emmys 2012. We will be reverting to the original 2 people CSS comparisons so that you can get more from the comparisons of someone wearing it right and someone not doing it quite so well. Thanks to Karen Starr DelloIacono who was of tremendous help on this!!

People are still looking at those celebrities and thinking can I wear that dress. This is a series of reviews of women (and sometimes men) who walked the red carpet that caught our eye here at LA-Story.com in either a positive or negative way. Fashion Designer Karen Starr Delloiacono and I changed up this post and are featuring Christina Hendrix and Kristin Wiig for Celebrity Style Slam #4! Why? Because they are wearing virtually the same color dress but given their diverse body types and hair color, what - and how-- they wore their red carpet outfits makes a world of difference. Christina Hendrix caught our attention because she was wearing a Christian Siriano dress that is absolutely perfect for her figure. (Yay for Project Runway!) This dress is killer! Kristin Wiig from Saturday Night Live and Bridesmaids wore this delicate Balenciaga dress that doesn't seem to quite fit the event and doesn't do a lot for her figure either. Take a listen to the podcast discussion with Karen Starr DelloIancono Rating: Christina Hendrix Karen Starr DelloIacono: 5 stars Stevie Wilson: 5 stars Average Rating: 5 stars Rating: Kristin Wiig Karen Starr DelloIacono: 2 stars Stevie Wilson: 2 stars Average Rating: 2 stars WINNER: Christina Hendrix with 5 stars We will be back with MORE reviews of Celebrity Style Slam!!
