Spring is fast approaching which means you also need some "cleaning" on your looks. After the cold season, a revamp on your worn-out look is a much needed reward for the stress of the last couple of months. A visit to your favorite hair salon for some tweaking should be good.
Hair stylists see a comeback of retro looks and colors for this coming season. 70s feathered hair and heavy bangs will be the rave and extremely dark and light hair colors will also break out. Sexy updos will also be big in the coming season, especially for high fashion looks. Of course, short haircuts will still be one of perennial hair styles until the end of the year.
Curly Hair Styles
Big girls, small curls, romantic waves, and crimps-these add character to one's looks. The right hair salon with the right stylist can help you achieve the curly hair style you've always wanted. If you have short hair, why not get hair extensions to give you long, luxurious locks that you can easily style. The key is to make the curls look as natural as possible. You can also go to the extreme and create a completely retro look with big, big curls that's volumized; much like Anne Hathaway's look in the movie, "Love and Other Drugs." 30s inspired curly bobs are also making a comeback. They were one of the biggest trends this recent Fashion Week.
To maintain luxurious natural-looking curls, use volume enhancing and hair style holding products from quality names such as Lancome, Paul Mitchell, and L'oreal.
Warm and Bold Hair Colors
Ombre and balayage hair colors were two of last year's best trends, and they're back for 2011, but with a fresh, toned-down shade. Ombre is a shade that combines warm brown and red tones together. This is perfect for people with light to medium dark complexions. Balayage is actually more of a highlighting technique that aims to make dyed hair look more natural. This hair color technique allows growing hair with highlights to look as fresh as the day you got them. Hair extensions have been manufactured in these colors so you can match them with your real hair as well.
For blonde hair colors, platinum bombshells are out, golden blondes are in! Salons that specialize in hair color are exploring the warmer shades of blonde that almost look golden. Metallic tones to rose gold are the colors you should look for to update your hair style. Again, only trust hair color and color care products from brands like TIGI, Paul Mitchell, and L'oreal.
Blunt and Heavy Bangs
Bangs have been making their way back since 2009, but for a more updated trendy hair style, go for heavy bangs. People with wide faces can highlight their better features and cover up their flaws. Depending on the type of bangs you get, a person can easily transform from being casual and carefree, to sophisticated and chic. Bangs are great with long hair (including hair extensions). Blunt cuts are more on the high fashion and edgy side while the asymmetrical bangs look more delicate and youthful.
Consult a professional hair salon before making any decisions. Go to a reputable salon that offers style consultations do that you don't regret any choices you make. Stay gorgeous!
