The recent wave of beauty tutorials is something that, no matter how hard you try, you cannot ignore. Effectively replacing expensive trips to salons, DIY beauty tricks are made much easier available with online sharing sites like YouTube or Twitter.
Some have taken this a step further by creating entire blogs dedicated to teaching the masses how to handle their own beauty blunders or enhancing their own looks. Some great examples of this are blogs The Beauty Department or A Beautiful Mess, both of which can be almost directly cited as the source for some of this season's hottest hair fads (hello, braided ballerina bun).
Whether you're just looking for something to do while bored at home or an affordable bridal hairstyle, these beauty tutorials are here to help.
