Half Up Still 2

TUTORIAL: Twisted Half-up Half-down Hairstyle

by Jade Darroughon 25 September 2017in Behind the Chair Beauty

Hello lovelies! Happy Monday to you!

Today we are bringing you another fun hair tutorial. Whether you have done it before or this is your first time, we’re working on the classic half up/half down hair style. If you have not noticed already, Jaded Beauty is ALL about volume, texture, wild, “undone” hair. Why do we love this type of style so much? Well, because it’s SEXY and wearable for an everyday style, on a date, or to an event. We want to keep things simple while adding a little bit of SASS to this classic style.

Believe it or not, this style is actually quick and easy. One of the most important pieces to this is, you have to lay the proper “ground work.” Your ground work is your bread & butter, your mac & cheese, your bacon and eggs! You have to, have to, HAVE TO do it. Your ground work is prepping with mild hairspray, curling, teasing and adding a mild layer of quality products to achieve your desired level of texture. Some people love a lot of texture and some only like little, small amounts of texture. As long as you have some texture in there, this style should be easy breezy for you! (You can also prep hair by watching our last video “Bombshell Hair”). We will also go over how to properly use a bobby pin. Seems simple, but trust me, most people have it backwards! After that, we will incorporate twists, curls, pins and a little extra SASS for you at the end!

Step by step:
1. Begin by creating clean sections in the hair, starting from the bottom. First lightly mist your section with a mild hold hair spray, then curl each piece section by section with a 1-1 1/2″ curling iron. My favorite mild hairspray and the one used in this video is Davines Medium hold hairspray (all products are listed at the bottom and sold and Adorn Salon).

2. Once you get to the crown of your head, use a teasing comb and begin to spray with hairspray and tease with your comb for a nice layer of backcombing.
Pssssst… Here’s a quick video that demonstrates how to properly tease your hair!

3. Smooth teased crown area on top. Find your part. Pick a side (I typically go with the heavy part side because there is more hair). Then you will begin to grab one side per section and secure it in the back of the head, creating a criss cross overlay pattern of pieces. So, grab your first piece, then begin to follow the direction of the curl and rotate to the back and secure it with a bobby pin (at a diagonal).

– IMPORTANT – Do not grab sections of hair that are directly along the hairline. This will create a severe look and you will quickly run out of hair to grab on each side. Select your first pieces of hair right behind or above the ear.

4. Go to the other side, grab a piece of hair (behind or above the ear), smooth it out, direct towards the back, and secure with a bobby pin. Continue to grab section by section until you are satisfied with the amount of hair that is pulled back away from the face.

5. See? EASY BREEZY!

Extra Sass:
If you would like to move forward to the final style (half up/half down with a bun), the last few steps are very simple.

1. Grab a tail end of one of the pieces of hair you have secured into the half up/half down style.

2. Roll that piece (move with the direction of the curl), create a little loop and secure this piece into the style.

3. Continue to grab pieces of tail ends and roll into the style until you are satisfied with the “bun” effect.

– IMPORTANT –
Keep in mind that you want to keep your rolled up sections of hair in the same vicinity of each other (in order to create a bun effect).

That. is. it! I hope it was easy for you! Please comment below if you have any questions OR feedback!

3 Years of Marriage + 2 Sweethearts + 1 Rustic Ranch = The Colorado Dream Team

by Jade Darroughon 27 September 2016in Behind the Chair Beauty

Ray & Melissa… Oh where do I even begin. This power couple has been taking over the Denver scene one naked woman at a time… Wait, what?

That’s right. Ray and Melissa are the proud owners of Under The Garter, the only stop you should be making for high-end boudoir photography.

This shoot marks the day I first met Ray and Melissa and their two boys. It goes to show that a first impression is everything. We all hit it off right off the bat. Since this day, Under the Garter and I have collaborated hair, make-up and photography forces. I am proud to say that I am the primary hairstylist offering on-site styling for Under the Garter boudoir clients right before their photoshoot session. Boudoir is mainly attractive to “brides-to-be” but is not limited to that. Anyone can do a boudoir session! It does not matter the reason, occasion, body type, relationship status, etc. My boyfriend and I decided to do one… just for fun. You can check that out here. Every boudoir session is both personalized to each client’s needs and requests and also securely confidential. If you are interested in boudoir or have ever considered doing something out of the box, being completely pampered from head to toe, looking your absolute best in your skivvies… call UTG.

The sessions take place in a cozy little home that Ray and Melissa have converted into an full wedding vendor boutique equipped with the most important vendors needed on your wedding day. This one stop shop is called Bliss Bridal Boutique and I would highly recommend checking it out if you are in the process of planning a wedding!

Anyways, Let’s get back to this gorgeous Colorado ranch photoshoot. Ray and Melissa are used to being behind the camera but for this instance, they volunteered to change their roles and play the part as models. They have been married for years and have two, very charismatic boys. When their wedding took place, it was small, intimate and did not produce as many or as many ideal photos as two would wish for. In this case, they were the perfect subjects for this dreamy Valentine’s day themed photoshoot in Elizabeth, CO.

Melissa slipped into a stunning gown from Emma and Grace Bridal Boutique. It could not have fit her (including her personality) more perfectly. Her hair and make up tied the entire graceful style together. I will never forget when her son, Ryder, saw her for the first time. He stuttered a little and then softly muttered the words, “Mom, you are so pretty.”

Our vision for the shoot was classic, timeless, and elegance. When glancing at every little detail, you can’t help but think the word “vintage.” This dreamy styled shoot was actually featured on the well known wedding inspiration panel, Burnett’s Boards! Check out the entire blog post here! Glaze your eyes on the photos below. Keep scrolling for vendors involved and a few fun behind the scenes shots!

Behind the Chair with Jade

by Jade Darroughon 14 August 2014in Behind the Chair Beauty, Photoshoots, Tutorials

Jade and Kari_Fotor
Here’s a little glimpse into what it’s like to be behind the chair with Jade. Customized hairstyle to YOUR liking, professional makeup and personal photoshoot (must book in advance.) Some people prefer to arrive prepared with photos and examples of what they like and some like to leave it completely up to the professional. Either way is absolutely perfect with me, as long as YOU feel comfortable and excited about the outcome!
Kari decided to leave everything up to the professional and put it into my hands to give her a little… UMPH. Not that she needed it, she is naturally stunning, but sometimes women just like to be pampered and have fun! We gave her a soft curl with a lot of bounce, combined that with a twisted half updo. For her makeup, we focused on her natural features, amping up her lashes, brows, and cheeks.
Enhancing people’s natural features and putting an exclamation point on their everyday look is what I love to do. Beauty is my LIFE. I would love to meet with you in person to talk about your beauty options, needs, or just do a fun makeover along with a private photoshoot! Please email me directly for booking inquiries!

This all would not have been possible without my stunning model, Kari, our skilled photographer, Adam with Devo Photography and mimosas… Of course.
