Hum...I know, say Bye Bye to turnip-like calves w/ easy hosiery wrapping!!!
(ps. I like strong legs w/ muscles and they are sexy too. However, personally I prefer thin and no big chunk of muscle on calves so they look even longer when wearing high heels.)
My mom told me this wrapping trick cause' she thinks my legs are not as straight as SHE WANTED. You know, moms always do that....critics....about their daughters about everything!!!lol And I do it religiously not just for straightening my legs but for preventing edema, fatigue and DVT ever since I was in high school.:P
It is really helpful when you have a long standing or walking day and best help relieving the pressure when you fly over 4 or 6 hours w/ the plane.
First, you find the cheapest tights you can buy. They normally have the best stretchable threshold, not the medical grade.
Now you have one for each calf.
- You only wrap the calf part to relax the muscle.
- Wrap counter-clockwise for right leg, and clockwise for left leg to push the muscle back instead of showing a big chuck at sides when looking in front!!
- Not so tight, just enough to feel it and tuck in the remaining.
- Go to sleep w/ them!!!!
DH gets used to this funny look of my legs every night!! (oh, too dark to see them, actually!! :P)
Make sure you won't tighten it too hard, a little mark shown in the morning is fine but you shouldn't see a red mark at all.
Try it and have sexier legs day by day!!!
Friends asked if I did a straightening perm of my hair. The answer is NO!! (My hair is very very wavy.)
Here is how I do it w/ some help of great tools.
Here is how I do it w/ some help of great tools.
Flat ironing, round wood comb, and the best tool for straightening hair ---- flat brush. (And it's made by wild-big's hair). NOTE: No plastic or metal brush for heat ironing.
When you do the flat ironing, the heat is also doing some damage to the hair so I think the flat brush can help cooling it down and straightening hair even more at the same time.
My theory is to use the flat brush n' remaining heat on hair to straighten them once more!! This way, I don't have to iron through my hair so many times to BURN it flat!!
Does it make sense to you?!! ^0^
Viola~~ The wood round comb is for my bang and again the remaining heat is doing double duty so I don't have to use hair-dryer!!
Every thing is recycled from my wardrobe except the Erin pocket tee bought in Sept. (If sunglasses doesn't count.)
I can't resist buying this brass leiber sunglasses w/ rhinestones for $168 when original price is $860.
