2016, you’re off to a radiant start. 

Just last week we checked out the gold-leaf hair trend, and before that we were all about hair tattoos, glitter roots, and even the dude-friendly trend of glitter beards.

It’s been around, but this is the first time we’re seeing it mashed up with the can’t-stop-won’t-stop rainbow hair trend, which has hit the full spectrum of colors from pastel streaks to dreamy “betta fish hair” to ultradramatic “sand art hair.”  read more

In an election year, everything about a presidential candidate gets scrutinized — right down to their heels.
