OC Wino Fans Vote for the OC Housewife!

9/7/2014

Shannon Beador, #1 OC Housewife.

I have known Shannon for over 20 years. She is up for the challenge to win E's Best Housewife award. Since she has been on the OC Housewives, it has been a ritual in our house to watch the show every Monday night and get our fill of the craziness. Shannon is real. She believes in a holistic and toxic free lifestyle. She is a great mom and wife and plays Bunko like a competitive champ. It is clear why she is a favored housewife.

"The Oc is full of secrets, but I have nothing to hide." -Shannon

Vote for her here on the link below (voting closes tomorrow at 5 PM PT):

Get a Blow Dry at Newport's Jack Winn Salon

6/4/2014

What is it about getting a blow dry that makes you feel put together?

Jack Winn Salon and Body center, located, in Newport Beach, across from Sterling BMW was my introduction to the art of Blow Drying. I was always stressed about what I wore and the fact that I never have had any idea how to apply makeup. I also was so sick of my hair looking frizzy and UN-stylish. I’m sure you can relate.

Shelby Pence started to cut and style my hair about 4 years ago when the flat iron and Keratin Treatments were really in. So to be different she started to put a little stylish curl into my layered do with her blowdryer and I loved it. I've been going back twice a week ever since and never have to worry about my hair.

Now I did not want to be one of those women that were in the salon everyday, so I decided to do some home testing on how to preserve a great style for at least 3 days. I am very active and spin, run, play tennis and am a Bar Method Enthusiast. All the things that make you sweat.

So I am going to share with you my prize winning (in my mind) tips to maintain your 'do:

-When exercising, loosely pin your hair up in bun with a twist band, then use bobby pins to tack both sides up. You may look like a dork, but who doesn't when working out?

-Pin the sides up whenever you are on the road or at home so you don’t rub your fingers through your hair.

-By the night of your second day, dry shampoos and hair perfumes are your best friend.

-On your third day, the products are essential. Please don’t wash it yet; you truly can go another day. When you think your hair looks like shit, that is when the compliments start coming in.

-When you sleep, don’t pull it back in a ponytail. Just lift it over your pillow and gently let it rest above your head.

There are blow dry bars that have popped up everywhere, but I have to say if you buy a series at Jack Winn Salon and Body Center, it is a good bang for your buck.

Mention the OC Wino and you will also get a very perky pour!

Adventure to I-Spa for a Korean spa experience

6/2/2014

One of my greatest escapes when I've had a long week or weekend is to go to the I-Spa. As much as I love the luxury of The Montage, Aquaterra at the Surf and Sand, or La Quinta Spa in the desert, I have to say, the I-Spa is the queen bee. It is located in Irvine on Barranca and Jamboree across from The District.

The experience is unbelievable. At first you sweat in scrubs in Himalayan salt rooms, mud rooms, and even a calming cedar room. Cool off in the refrigerated room and finish up before your treatment with delicious Korean fare.

Now you are going to venture down into your treatments. You can't be shy here because it is necessary to strip and become completely naked. Anna, my favorite therapist, scrubs me down with a hard loofah pad for one hour and that cold cucumber mask is so refreshing. Then I get wrapped in Korean salve and get an awesome hair and scalp treatment. After rinsing off, you go down for your massage. They are standing on you, pulling at you, and treating you like a rag doll. But the intensity and the smoothness of your skin after the treatment is phenomenal. This collection of treatments is called the Gold Massage. At $130, it is the best bang for your buck for sure. Plan on spending about 4 hours enjoying the whole adventure.

The staff at I Spa is incredible and are extremely nice. However don't get shocked, or get any ideas, when the therapists come out to work on you in black bras and underwear. If anything, they are trying to get close to your level of buck nakedness.
