<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Dryness is the main reason that appears curly hairs frizzy. Mild shampoo is the solution. Mild shampoos restore natural oil of hairs rather than extracting it. Never use harsh shampoos on curly hairs as they draw out natural oil from them and leave them dry and rough. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Also shampooing should always be followed by conditioning, as it helps in replenishing the lost moisture. Shampooing hairs twice in a week is perfect for curly hairs. Shampooing and conditioning are best ways to keep curly hairs in good shape. <span> </span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Length</span></strong></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Good haircut is very essential for good looks. Have knowledge of which haircuts suit curly hairs and which one will suit you.<span> </span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Use thin scissors</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">When go for cutting ask hairstylist to use thin scissors. Also your hairstylist should be experienced in cutting curly hairs. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Air drying is better method</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">After washing leave hairs for air drying. Blow drying is not for curly hairs as it makes curly hairs more dry and prone to breakage. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Use wide tooth comb</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Wide tooth comb is good for combing curly hairs. It minimizes damages like hair breakage.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;"> </span></strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1077" src="http://www.onlygowns.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/tunic-dress.jpg" alt="tunic-dress" width="249" height="277" />Fashion is directly linked with womanhood. All women have right to think of them in fashion terms irrespective of her age and body. In this article we will discuss fashion of short waist women.<br />
Being of short waist is not a flaw. Any body feature is not a flaw until you know what to wear and what not to wear. There are many fashions around and it is quite obvious to be attracted towards them but wearing fashion that is made for you, only emphasize your features. Let’s know about those styles that make short waist women look their best.<br />
Main aim of short waist women is to give an illusion of long waist by dressing in that way. For that wear something long and loose on top and team it with a skinny pant or short skirt. This combination creates stylish and a streamlined look for short waist women and give an illusion of elongated waist.<br />
Best wear for upper part of the body are loose and long blouses, cardigans and sweaters. Boyfriend shirts and boyfriend sweaters are greatly seen on the runways and also good for camouflaging a short waist. Boyfriend jackets are also very high in fashion nowadays and are apt for short waist women. These styles are truly flattering for the short waist body type.<br />
Pants or skirts should be chosen with much care. Skinny jeans, tight pants, short fitted skirts, leggings etc. all fashions are for you but should be low waist. Drop waist styles make waist look longer.<br />
Empire line dresses are very good for short waist women. They are not only high in fashion but blur the waist lines also.<br />
Tunics are another ideal style for short waist figures. They are trendy, versatile and enhance assets of short waist women. Drop waist style tunics are more preferred.<br />
At last any look is incomplete without accessory thus belt is appropriate accessory for short waist women. However, they should be worn lower on the hips to lengthen waist.<br />
These fashion dress styles appropriately enhance the look of short waist women.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1048" src="http://www.onlygowns.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/short_women_dress1.jpg" alt="short_women_dress1" width="220" height="343" />Unlike tall women shorter women has to choose their clothing by giving little thought. She should know how to maximize her appearance. There are some fashion tips which are of great help to her for enhancing appearance. Here are those rules of thumb:</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Wear vertical design outfits</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: normal;">Dress featuring vertical lines design work greatly for shorter height women. It gives them an illusion of height. Outfits having horizontal lines should be avoided by s</span></strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">hort women. Such fashion styles work negatively on them. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Monochromatic color dress do magic</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Wear dress having one color from top till bottom. It does not break silhouette and impart longer, leaner silhouette. Even accessories like footwear and hosiery should also be of the same color. Remember anything in contrast detracts from length.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Avoid bright colors</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Short women are advised to avoid wearing bright color dresses. Bright color clothes tend to make them look shorter. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Be simple in dressing</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Everybody likes details but it is not necessary that it will look good on everyone. Short women should avoid wearing detailed dress as it overwhelms them. As simple she will be the more good she will look. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Wear empire waist dresses</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Empire waist dresses are blessing for short women. This style lends younger, slimmer and taller look to short women. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Wear tailored dresses</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Tailored dresses are best friend of short women. They are exactly of their shape and size thus greatly enhances their looks and makes them look attractive. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Moderate heels are for you </span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Too high heels look awkward on you. Heel of two inch is perfect for you. Also do not wear flats at the same time, as it is also not for you. A two inch heel really elongates your appearance. Footwear having straps across the foot or around the ankle should be avoided as they visually cut the legs off.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;"> </span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;"> </span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Avoid Capri’s</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Short women think that wearing Capri’s or mid calf pants or jeans will give them smart and taller look. But what happens is just its opposite. It is one of the most common fashion mistakes short women do. These pants or jeans cuts legs in two making appear shorter than you are. Always wear floor length jeans and pants so as to make your silhouette longer. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">These dressing tips will certainly help in looking short women look tall but with it you also have to keep in mind that you stand straight with your shoulders back. It is considered right posture and literally adds inches to your height.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;"> </span></p>
