Fall Inspired By Becca Z. Towery As a Worth New York Stylist and the Founder of We’ve Got Style I am often asked about seasonal looks & trends. This season I am excited to bring to Sarasota the Worth New York Fall Collection, inspired by travel, prep schools, and soft textures.

Hair Accessories By Sheila Venancia Hair accessories come in lots of different shapes and sizes.

Hair is Like a Canvas By Sheila Venancia Your hair is a canvas that can project your persona, be it a rich caramel or candy floss pink; and if you are feeling bold, you could always get a fiery red or an electric blue. To get these lovely colors in your tresses, you will have to lighten your hair so when you apply the color, it will be effervescent. The coloring process opens up the cuticles and gives room for the new color pigments to be deposited and give better, even results. The latest trend that has taken over is […]

Use It or Lose It! Be Careful with Expired Hair Products By Sheila Venancia Do hair products such as gels, creams, mousse expire? If so, how do you know when they are no longer any good?
