The Latest Fashion In Hair Styles

Do you love to crown your personal fashion statement? Do you love to carry latest hairstyles? And why not? The latest hairstyles seem to be sweeping the world slowly. The life cycle of any fashion trend is close to just a few years, from the emergence of a new trend to an ultimate fizz in the end. There are the 80’s bangs that just do not come off from people’s minds.

A lot of things go in to decide for the latest hairstyles. For your ease, I have here categorized the latest hair trends. So, just go reading!

Vintage Hollywood Glamour
The old, vintage glamorous Hollywood look is well-characterized by the smooth and voluptuous waves. The side parts are kept really deep. To get that hot look, you can have finger waving and pin curlings. You need some beautiful accessories to just top it off nicely. The vintage accessories are kept on the one side of the hair and also at the backside. Get the items such as feathers or rhinestones. All of these are latest in fashion these days.

1980’s Inspired
Your hairstyle can get you a journey to the past. Get an influence from the time of ‘80s. You will have movement and texture, plenty of waves, short layers on the top and tangled curls. Just dare to sport an old eighties’ mullet, it will get you back en vogue suddenly.

New Mod
Better call it Super-Fly Beatle. It is a re-born version of classical mod style of 50’s and 60’s. It has texture in the crown and short lengths. The sides and back of new mod can go from short to medium. It can also have lots of texture or distinct bluntness around the hairline. It tends to be heavy, nearly rounded bashes that can skim your eyelashes. You may feel it to be a little annoying. But are you bothered with a little discomfort and avoid that great fashion?

Faux-Hawks and Mohawks
It is a hot-trend for both girls and boys. It has an enormously versatile look. It is also promising to imitate on just any hair length. If you have short hair, you can use gel or wax to simply direct your hair forward and then upwards in center.

Asymmetric and Disconnected Cuts
The extreme angle makes for a figurine feel. The blunt edges show cuts in the unexpected places. You may not get any blend here. It is really edgy. You can still tame it down by getting an asymmetric cut. The asymmetric cut has one side long as compared to the other. The cut’s angle can range from one gentle slope to plummet. The one side is kept too short. It further graduates to the length of chin and comes about the head.

Select any one of the latest hairstyles here. But do remember it should suit your face cut and the whole personality.

Some of them may want to be a designer and just want to have own little studio then taking the job from outside, mean while some other want to join reputable fashion design schools or institutes or even work for the company which can pay highest income. However, the fashion business today has more variety of options. As the fashion business actually can be started from very small scale like family business where one or two family member could set up by using only little budget, to the very large fashion items manufacturers.

There are so many business owners who are now are very successful and are the owner of very famous fashion design companies, and these people started their business only from home business. However, it is fairly to say that at present time, there will be only a little chance for the home business to become success without having huge amount of money.

But now we are in internet age, where everything is possible and the competitive advantage is no longer limited by the size of the business at all. There are places on the internet to present your work and also not just to present and you can sell them on line as well.

Trendy Fashion Options - Fashion Trend Setters Go Naked To Prove A Point

Do you as a fashion trend setter know, that the clothes/Jewelry you wear tells a story about you as an individual? It is fact; the way you dress and present yourself in public dominantly speaks volumes about your whole domain. It is the onlooker on the street that holds the ending chapter when weighing up what type of person they think you are from the clothes you wear.

More often than not people tend to conjure up a personal opinion based on the whole entity of your image. Regardless of what fashion designer gear is displayed in the fashion boutique window, remember, the dummy is not out to make an impression. To dress to impress is all well and good, however it is who you wish to impress that may cause the denial of a friendship or worse a relationship if dress sense (code) is not suitable.

Latest trendy fashion designs can be dressed up or down for approval in certain situations. Sadly to make an impression you may find you have to make changes e.g. choice of identity (style) just to please folks who label you as being a fashion freak.

A first impression is where you make an impact on others, this is crucial if you seek acceptance into a particular circle of friends. Unfortunately fashion trend setters are judged by the clothes they wear.

Judgemental opinions should be kept under wraps because, it is not what is on the outside that counts, it's the warm inner beauty on the inside that really matters.

However people find this hard to understand or in some cases do not want to understand that fashion trend setters - really are nice people regardless of the stud in the nose or Medusa hairstyle. Some fashion trend setters are seen as outcasts and therefore suffer rejection all because of the clothes that is worn.

A couple of examples below will tell you how the latest fashion or your very own personal wardrobe can let you down.

1 "Vacancy for bank manger"; you dress in creations designed by Vivienne Westwood for your interview, (orange skirt, black fishnet stockings purple shawl and pink bows in your hair), and before your foot is through the door, you are shown it after being told the position has been filled. A judgmental opinion on your appearance has just lost the bank a fashion trend setter with an IQ of a 160.

2 What of the toffee nosed snob in the office spruced up in his pin striped suit, tie and briefcase? Sadly he loses out on love because of status issues, i.e. choosing to ignore the petite flower hippie girl he passes each morning going to the office. His world is only in acceptance of seamed stockings stilettos and hair neatly pinned up. "Wrong move" many an office clerk has ended up with a bird with no brains.

Remember "Never judge the book by the cover" Seeing through an image can result in a perfect relationship/friendship.

For those with status issues who pass judgement and make false assumptions about a person based purely upon the garments they wear,

Then look - listen and learn from the example below.

1 Take the fashion trend setter dressed in combat pants, boots - baseball cap and pierced tongue

2 Take the female office assistant dressed in a tailor made suit, sling back patent shoes and hair neatly clipped in a bun.

3 Take the hippie dressed in ankle length skirt, leather sandals, flowers in her hair and bells round her neck

Now strip the 3 ladies down to the bare essentials (naked) and what do we have. Yes a triple duplication of the female species. The only difference may be that of size and weight in each woman. There is a lesson to be learned from this and that is, you have no story due absent content. Without clothes we have no character to base a story on.

Fashion trend setters who want to make a good impression on their first date, need to keep their clothes on. You do not undress to impress at least until you know your partners name.

Fashion - Today`s Colour In Fashion Will It Suit Your Complexion

Kacy Carr

Fashion - Why do women and beauty products work well together, the answer to that is quite simple, cosmetics make you look beautiful and women want to be beautiful so there you have it - a match made in heaven - the perfect duo. Today`s fashion and latest shades in lipstick is no guarantee to looking beautiful if you are not feeling good about yourself.

It`s a funny old world - the fashion world. Take those glamour models that grace the catwalk with the latest in fashion design - only to go and mess the entire look of the whole outfit with an expression of depression along with a ridiculous unbalanced walk like that of a woman who has just downed 10 pints of lager - now where is the beauty in that I ask you.

Remember never to imitate the pose of a model on a night out with friends because that friendship may just cease and heaven forbid if you are looking for a date with the opposite sex - then the chances of that happening are zilch. If you want to impress then it is all down to how you dress. You will always be at your best if you feel good. A smile radiates beauty so regardless of what the fashion it is you adorn - be sure to smile and that is half of the battle won in feeling good and looking beautiful

Why is it you wear the same colours when you go out? Why is it you feel that a certain colour is not ideally suited to your complexion even though it is in fashion? Well now is the time to change all that. Todays fashionable colours are just oozing to expel your beauty within. Positive results are guaranteed after you have boosted your confidence into looking beautiful with the latest in fashion styles and colours.

For example if you are not partial to the colour green or orange up next to the skin, well that is fine, but, at the time you decided this colour was not for you, did you ever give it a minutes thought that it was just that particular shade of green that you were not comfortable with. Remember there are 40 shades of green, now do you get my drift. Now as for orange - a colour that does need to be given much thought behind for a person`s skin tone - but if you like orange then dress it up with accessories to compliment the shade itself - this will work wonders.

Just by changing the shade of one particular colour and style of dress can be the start of finding the real beauty within. Your inner beauty may have lain static for far to long all because you took for granted that the first bright lime green luminous blouse you ever tried on was not for you, therefore leaving you resisting future fashion garments in green, But did you ever consider replacing that lime green blouse for pretty cowl neck musky jade shade.. Also a change of hairstyle can alter your whole image along with the colour that you banished from the wardrobe.

It is sad - but there are many women who are confused and believe that a certain colour does them no justice - when at the end of the day it may have been their choice in the shade.

Make Thinning Hair Look Thicker: Three Tips To Improve Bad Hair Days

Your hair has been getting thinner for a while. When you look in the mirror, you are appalled. What’s with all that scalp shining through?

Maybe you’re just fed up with it and wish it would look thicker. Maybe you’re actively doing something that may help your hair grow back, or at least make it stop falling out so much. And you’re optimistic. But why does it have to take so long until you see a noticeable difference?

Here are a few things you can do to make your hair at least look thicker while you wait. They're easy and quick so you can have thicker hair tonight. And the best thing: none of them involve expensive or otherwise drastic measures.

Tip 1: Use Color. This technique is especially effective if your hair is graying. In that case, color will make your hair look much thicker instantly. But color can also help if you’re just changing your shade a little, and even if you pick a perfect match for your natural color. That’s because hair color actually thickens each individual hair just a tiny bit, and the overall effect is very helpful.

Tip 2: Use Thickening Shampoos. Thickening shampoos, also known as voluming shampoos, really make a difference. There are a number of them on the market. I’m avoiding anything with sodium lauryl sulfate these days, so I’m buying mine at the health food store. Before I went off that chemical, I used to use one with a really embarrassing name by Catwalk. Excellent stuff.

Tip 3: Dry shampoos. I discovered this little trick by accident. Originally I bought it because I thought I might find it handy after hitting the snooze button too many times. But when I combed my hair after the first time I tried it, I could hardly believe my eyes. My hair looked a LOT thicker. It felt that way too! Now this may not be ideal for everyday use, and it’s surprisingly expensive, but who am I to tell you what to do. Besides, it thickens up clean hair quite nicely too...

Meanwhile, I have tried two of the dry shampoos, one great, and the other quite serviceable but with far too much perfume for my taste. The price difference is substantial though that I have bought a second bottle of the overly perfumed kind.

Just in case you want to know: the fancy shampoo is Naturia by Rene Furterer ($22 for 3.2 oz. on Ebay), and the other, heavily perfumed one is just plain “dry shampoo” by Batiste ($6.99 at Sally’s). Both come in environmentally problematic spray bottles, and you should probably also know that the 3 to 5 ounces of stuff is only enough for maybe half a dozen or so applications, depending on how much of it you use each time.

So there you have it. Three easy tricks to make your hair look thicker. You can use one, two, or even all three. Meanwhile, I think I’ll investigate some more brands for a follow-up dry shampoo review.

Hair Cut Or Hair Growth And Life Of Hair

Every part of the body has some purpose to serve. We cut our hair from scalp and shave our face daily because we do not like its growth to distort our looks (?)And see the obstinacy and compulsion of the body; it brings back the hair we had cut. Is it not sufficient evidence that body contemplates the growth of hair on the place where it suits much to the advantage of skin and the organs beneath it? Actually what we do is we cut the cuticle of hair, which has several parts below i.e. Huxley’s layer, Henley’s layer, glassy layer medulla, cortical substance, hair bulb, hair papilla, blood vessel and then connective tissues of the cutis, are the parts lying underneath the end of hair, that we cut.

Cutting of hair is a repeated process affecting all the lower parts of the hair in which many changes occur before we see the cuticle come out of skin again. After cutting the end of hair, we cannot rule out the adverse effect on the working efficiency of the blood vessel beneath papilla. The adjoining blood vessels supplying blood to whole of adjoining hair or skin of head and face may not function wholly as per the designed efficiency.

In other words, the working efficiency of the hair and the organ beneath is degraded, if not destroyed. There is a saying in our old health books duly approved by our ancestors and saints that cutting of beard could harm gums and teeth. This harm may be in the form of decay or weakness in gums and rots of teeth. Can this related to malnutrition and inefficiency of blood cells of hair, which are subjected to frequent cuts at its ends? I feel any disturbance cause on the outer body is bound to affect the inner body may be in a long run.

It is just like continuous rubbing of the rope drawing bucket of water from the well and resulting in making of a groove on the brick wall of the well. I may be wrong and would like to have a rational correction from your end. I am just correlating theoretical aspects.

The hair according to above theory has a limited existence and short life. It is shed by the process of separation that takes place about the bulb accompanied by a contraction of the hair- follicle at this point.

Once the hair is in its shedding process, the new hair is regenerated from the inner root-sheath about the papilla and it pushes the dead hair lying ahead of it until it is shed or accidentally removed while massaging the scalp or brushing the hair.

This means that hair is produced from the epidermis but its production is a process that forms a cornified cylinder, projected form the cutaneous surface and is very analogous to real epidermal cornification. The life of the hair is short but it is a process of regeneration that keeps the healthy person happy when he or she sees growth of hair returning after a lapse or recess.

2009 Spring Hairstyle Trends for Long Hair

If you've been growing your hair out for a while, then it's time to show it off!
Here's a sneak peak at the hottest new long hairstyles for Spring 2009, followed by hair styling indications to take the trend and make it yours. Get inspired straight from the runway!

Spring 2009 Hairstyle Trends



Hair Trend No 1 - Big Volume

Influenced by the disco era, these long curls are back with a slightly fluffy finish. Take a clue from DSquared2 or Gucci, by leaving roots smooth and waving the mid-lengths.
Heated rollers are best for creating voluminous, big waves. Position large rollers towards the root for real height or use a small roller for subtle volume and smaller, tighter curls.




2009 Hairstyle Trends





















Hair Trend No 2 – Boho Texture

Boho waves are loved by rock chick and beach babes alike, but the carefree scrunched locks are a great look for going out.
If you've got fine hair, the disheveled texture is easy to create with styling products, while thicker hair need encouragement from a diffuser to get textured-up.
Use a diffuser to create boho waves; enhance hair's kink by blow-drying with a diffuser attachment.

Spring 2009 Long Curly Hairstyles



Hair Trend No 3 – Romantic Ripples

Romantic waves scream retro, but have been made modern by celebrities wearing them so well. Finger waves suit best medium-to-fine hair types, but suit all lengths.
Get your own style of waves by running a flat iron through your hair as though curling a ribbon.



2009 Hairstyle Trends with Photos

Hair Trend No 4 - Hollywood Waves

It's the ultimate in glamour and should be glossy, gorgeous and luxurious.
If you've got straight hair, try out different tools to achieve that high-maintenance look. If you've got already curly hair, work with your natural texture by using curl definer products.
You can get more precise, tighter curls by using a curling iron. Again, adjust the size of the barrel according to desired wave size.

How to Leave the Hair Salon Happy and Pleased

Find out how to choose the style that's perfect for you and return happy and satisfied from your hair salon.

First, look through magazines, or search for hairstyle photos on the web to get an idea of what you like and don't like. Tear out the pages with the hairstyles on that interest you (or print them) and take them with you when you go to the salon to show to your stylist.
Go to the salon for a consultation - most good salons offer this service free of charge – especially if you want a big change.


Then you can discuss your new style before you commit to an appointment.
Try and arrange this for a weekday rather than a Saturday as this is always the busiest day of the week in the salon and you may not get the close attention that you want.

Be honest with your hairstylist about how much time and effort you're prepared to, and have time to put into your new look. Discuss what you like and dislike and what your lifestyle is like.
Listen to the advice you're given by your consultant and if in doubt, don't be afraid to ask any questions. If you are not happy with the consultant's suggestions, go to another salon.
Never feel intimidated into having a style that you are not happy with.

One the cut is completed, check your hair from all sides.
Don't leave the salon unhappy; speak up when you're in the chair. If you kept close watch, you should have the look you wanted.

Hopefully, there's time left for you to learn some new styling options.
If your stylist lets you know each product used and how to use them, chances are good you'll continue to get what you want for years to come.

Remember, you don't have to leave the salon with the latest trend.
Finding a style that suits you is what really counts, not being a trendsetter.

Holiday Curly Hairstyles for Long and Medium Hair

It's the party season hairstyle that everyone wants.
Soft and glamorous, it's easy to see why we can't get enough of this style that screams sexy!

This style would definitely suit you if you're blessed with long, thick hair, but if you haven't got full-bodied tresses, cheat by clipping in temporary extensions.

How to Style It

Forget the belief that rollers are out-dated; they're the best tool to use when creating this type of wave.



How to Style Long Curly Hair


Choose the size of your roller according to how big you want your waves and scatter randomly through hair – more on the crown if your want more height – then blast with a hot hair-dryer.

When hair cools, release rollers for a cascade of waves.
Spritz with hairspray to finish the look.
