Hey! Married! I will write about the wedding and the great vendors we used and the amazing hair & makeup (and maybe post a few pictures!) at a later date, but right now I am just going to say that it was totally the best night ever and leave it at that for now! Lena, a Hair On The Brain reader wrote in to tell me about a Ukrainian fashion line she is working on: X'U, designed by Ksenia Marchenko. Lena's email was so sweet and the site super cool, so I had to tell you all about it. Plus, check ...

How To: Wedding Makeup That Doesn't Suck how to, interviews, makeup | (7)
A while back I went to a makeup event at the the W Hotel in Westwood. Remember? They were filming The Hills with Heidi's sister and mom? That totally made it into the second to last episode! Anyway. At the event, I met Bare Escentuals makeup artist, Amber Blasco. She did my makeup and introduced me to some amazing Bare Escentuals products that I cannot live without, like all their mascara, lip glosses and eyeshadows. (By the way, do you recognize who Amber is makeup in the top pic? That's my looove Jennifer Carpenter from Dexter!) When Amber did my makeup, ...

I recently received a lovely email from a long-time Hair On The Brain reader (she read my tumblr!) wondering if I had any DIY tips for shorter hair girls who need to dress it up for a wedding.

I Do, My Way shoes, short hair, wedding | (10)
I am still looking for shoes to go with my wedding dress. (Shut up. At least the invitations went out today.) And I still don't know how I'm wearing my hair either.

But if there is one thing about me: I hate being told what to do and that includes stupid wedding beauty "rules". (My main piece of advice to anyone getting hitched, don't read about it online ...
