If you were born between December 22 and January 19, then you are lucky enough to be born under the star sign of Capricorn. This sign, represented by the sea goat, is a down-to-earth, luxury loving sign that values hard work and material success. Cappie girls are all about the finest things in life, and tend to look like a million bucks on a daily basis. This isn’t to say they are materialistic and shallow. In fact, they are quite the opposite. Cap women want to make their own way in life and will work hard for everything they have, and in that case, they should have the best of everything!
Appearance-wise, sea-goat women tend to be slender with well-shaped bodies and very dainty legs, ankles and feet. Their skin, like all the earth signs, is clear and radiant, and they have very strong teeth; you’ll know a Cap woman as soon as you see her million dollar smile. Capricorn Kate Middleton is the perfect example of these traits
Capricorns are earthy beauties who are reliable, hard-working and independent. Capricorn women are usually at the top of their professional game, so their image often shows off their high status. These mountain-goats would rather buy one quality, classic item than a dozen cheaper, trendy ones, and the same goes for their hair.
Sea-goat women tend to have hair types of two extremes—either thick and wiry or thin and silky. It is usually medium to dark in colour as well.They love to use only the best hair styling products to keep their manes in check. Capricorns are known for having slender noses, wide smiles and prominent cheekbones. For Capricorns with weak or thin hair, finding styles to make their hair more voluminous is key.
