New Year = New Hair

January 30, 2017 by Juliann

Start off the new year with some simple hair trends from KMS Global Stylist, Simon Miller. Below are a few of his latest tips and tricks for 2017. 

1.Create a slicked back look by blow drying the hair backward with a round boar bristle brush to create volume at the roots. Then, go over that with a flat iron to straighten it backwards, starting at the forehead. After, apply KMS California’s TAMEFRIZZ de-frizz oil to prevent frizz and create shine. Last, spray with KMS California’s FREESHAPE 2-in-1 styling + finishing spray to finish the look.

2.Create a sleek ponytail, parting hair in the middle and pulling it back into a tight pony. Then, spritz hair with KMS California FREESHAPE 2-in-1 finishing + styling spray to create extra hold.

3.Create a dual textured look by first giving hair a side part and adding effortless, loose curls using KMS FREESHAPE hot flex spray and style curls that will hold. Then, add on the opposite side of the dominate way the hair is parted, a braid that will add additional texture to the look.

4.Create natural volume by starting at the root. First, add a curl product such as KMS California CURLUP perfecting lotion to wet or damp hair starting at the roots. Then, at the roots pin hair up and allow to dry naturally. When dry, remove pins for natural volume. You can clean up with a curling iron if you feel necessary.

About This Blog

Juliann, founder of Beautiful Moms

Welcome to Beautiful Moms!

Hi! I'm Juliann, wife of 33 years to Jon, a mom to four amazing children, and a proud grandma to five precious little ones. I live in Oregon.

When I started Beautiful Moms in 2008, my goal was to connect with other moms who were also raising young children. It became a creative outlet for me to share my thoughts on motherhood, review products I loved, and work with brands that help make family life a little easier.

More importantly, I wanted moms to feel seen. It's so easy to lose ourselves in the demands of caring for everyone else and forget that our own well-being matters, too. Every mom deserves to feel beautiful, valued, and appreciated, no matter what stage of motherhood she's in.

Over the years, Beautiful Moms has evolved right along with me. My children are now all grown up, and I'm blessed to be a grandma.

Life changes so quickly

One thing that hasn't changed is my passion for encouraging other moms—it's simply expanded to include every season of motherhood—from pregnancy and baby's first years to raising teens, becoming an empty nester, navigating healthy aging, and everything in between.


Myelie, contributor at Beautiful Moms

I'm excited to have my daughter, Myelie, join the Beautiful Moms team as a new contributor. As the mom of a newborn and a busy toddler, she brings a fresh perspective on modern motherhood.

She lives in Alabama with her military husband, so she also understands the unique challenges of military life, frequent moves, and building a happy home wherever life takes you.
