Three Great Graduation Hair Styles

Why not look chic while accepting honors? Graduation is a day you’ll remember forever…so be unforgettable!

Here are Three Insider Tips:

  1. Prepare For The Hair- Pop some rollers in your hair the night before to give you some easy voluptuous style to just let loose under that cap. You can use the rag set technique and take uneven bigger sections for a loose natural look, or choose smaller sections for a tighter curlier effect.
  2. Would You Like A Hat With That Cap? Since your already wearring a glam hat while rocking the hat hair why not just bring another along for the ride to make a quick outfit change? Try one of the Spring 2012 Hat Trends including The Panama stlye hat, The Cloche, The Planter, The Fedora or The Floppy.
  3. A Little bit of Class with a Little Bit of Sass- This hairstyle works extremely well worn under a cap and keeps its longevity when the cap comes off. Build a foundation by curling your hair with a big barrel iron, put in an off center low ponytail, rough up slightly and even back comb a bit for more edge, spray with NuStyle Organic Hair Spray from Aubrey Organics and take individual pieces from the ponytail and pin almost randomly to create a very messy, loose but sophisticated look to get you through graduation and take you into the celebration. Depending on what look your going for you can leave some pieces out in the front or slick back.

Strut your way across that stage and walk confidently into the next chapter of your life.

GreenBook: HILTL Restaurant in Zurich, Switzerland

HILTL Restaurant is the oldest vegetarian restaurant in Europe- that is quite a claim! It all started here in Zurich, Switzerland… Veggies magically transformed into ‘beef’ carpaccio and ‘chicken’ satay. If there ever was a vegetarian restaurant to bring your meat eating friends to for a satisfying meal, this is the place!

They boast a large buffet of wonderfully seasoned and prepared vegetables, as well as a full a la carte menu. Dine late and burn off the calories in the bar section of the restaurant that turns into a disco-ball spinning dance floor (and one of the hottest spots in Zurich!) after 10pm.
