Glitter Roots: The "Can't Make it to The Salon" Solution

There's a new and unexpected trend this fall. Stemming from the lazy girl's need to cover up those fast growing roots, this look has now turned into a fashion statement. This isn't the trend for you if you're looking for just a touch of glitter, in fact just the opposite. You better love glitter. And LOTS of glitter.

The best part of the glitter roots look? It's easy. Have some glitter? How about some hair gel? Then you've got everything you need to make your own glitter roots! Just in case you're still hesitant, let us take it step by step for you.

1. Brush out your hair. When adding glitter to your roots, the last thing you want to deal with are tangles. Trust us.
2. Part your hair. Parting down the middle seems to be the most popular.
3. Mix glitter in your hair gel.
4. Apply to roots with a brush.
5. You're all set and ready to go!

Excuse me for showing my glitter roots today, but I'm full of excitement and optimism! #glitterroots #glitter #hair #hairdo #positivity #colour #creatvity #hairenvy #hairinspiration

With the holiday season here you will have plenty of opportunities at holiday parties, family get togethers, and movie premiers to rock your glitter roots.  We can totally see this trend making a debut at the new Hunger Games and Star Wars premiers, can't you? With the increasing popularity, you probably won't be the only one with some sparkle in your hair ;).

What time is it? Feature Friday time of course! Once again we are collecting our personal favorite nail art looks we've come across this past week and creating the ultimate Friday blog post! And we want to know which of these looks is your favorite, of course. As always :)

You can't help but fall head over heels for a black and silver chevron mani with plenty of silver glitter :)

This zebra print mani got quite a bit of traction on our Google Plus page! Wether it's the animal print or the purple gradient, the people have spoken!

Negative space is being used a lot in nail art designs, and it's not hard to see why. What could be cooler than this negative space heart mani?

If you're dying for Summer and the beach, there's a good chance this look will be your instant fav! But seriously, who isn't waiting for a Summer break at the beach?!

Now this one is going to make us drool! Just about everyone loves Nutella, so it's only natural that this Nutella would get quite a bit of love as well. Now which of these manicures is your favorite of the week? Don't be shy, we want to know what you think so we can continue to find and share the looks you love! XOXO, Glitties
