Short Choppy Hairstyles 2009

Short Choppy Hairstyles

Creating a good choppy hairdo often requires special equipment not often employed by the hairstylist. This can be important. For stylists, the tools of the trade are a joy to work with. That is why clients must think carefully when listening to the recommendations of their favorite groomer, regardless of how long they’ve worked with them. After a while, the professional hair designer wants to use all of his tools. The urge to finally work with that special razor or trimmer may overcome them even when the head in front of them is not right for the job! This is why you must communicate clearly with your stylist when you move to a shorter look. Don’t let your expert use you to try out that new piece of equipment!
With that note to the wise and wary being done, it should be noted that a new choppy haircut can be a really wild and fun adventure. The location of the chops and abrupt snips used in this style are chosen through intuition and experience, not through a well-established plan.
It is best to have at least medium length hair before beginning this hairdo, because of all the styles in the world, the choppy look is the one that is most likely to veer off into disaster during creation. Every professional stylist has a bad day, sometimes! Even so, a good stylist will have no problem creating a great choppy hairdo is your face shape and hair texture are right for the style.

Crazy Bob Hairstyles 2010

Crazy Bob Hairstyles Ideas 2010

You should get the bob for the best reason of all: it’s a fun hairdo that will allow the best features of your face to be seen! The bob is an extraordinarily flexible hairdo that allows you to look trendy and fun in a variety of ways. Another nice quality of the bob is that all of its versions are low maintenance hairdos. You have a longer bob with hair below the ears, you can have your bob inverted, and you can enjoy a short bob, as well. If one bob isn’t working, try another!

It must be admitted however, that the short bob is dominating today’s red carpet galas and extravaganzas. One need only look at the cover of the latest fashion magazines to see Victoria Beckham, Rhianna, and Audrey Tatou playing with their bobbed hair, with fantastic results. Of the three, Tatou employed the shortest look, and she used it beautifully. With a nest of curls around her pointed features reminiscent of Betty Boop, Audrey was darling and cute. Her bob was allowing her very pointy facial features to rest in a soft halo of black ringlets. If you also possess pointy features, a triangular or heart-shaped face, or even just a good set of well-defined cheekbones, you are a prime candidate for the short bob.

You need to consult your stylist to see if you fit in this category, however. Even the round face can make a short bob work! Long and thin faces are not the best foundation to use for this hairstyle.

Hairstyles for Fine Hair - 2009

Hairstyles for Fine Hair in 2009

Fine hair is another element of styling that presents a challenge to any salon worker worthy of the name. Sometimes the challenge lies in not reacting! Can fine hair be successfully curled? Of course it can, but just because it can be doesn’t mean that a stylist should dive for the irons and perform a princess updo the moment he sees the fine-haired client! Neither should the stylist ignore the classic first option for fine hair, the straight bangs.
2009 Spring Summer Hairstyles Edition - Hairstyles for Fine Hair

Fine hair always allows straight bangs to work well, regardless of face shape. However, if you’ve gotten sick of stylists proposing straight bangs for your fine hair the moment you walk in the salon, that’s okay! You too can have piecy curls, if you have the time (and the money)! The principles for hairstyling are always the same. What looks good, in your opinion, and what would you prefer? It’s a free country, and that’s all that matters. You must calmly evaluate the facts. Is your face thin or wide? Are your features, the nose, chin, cheekbones, and eyes, well defined? Each of these factors affects the balance and attractiveness of your fine hair.

A long face with fine hair will probably benefit immensely from the creation of waves and curls, since the curves will contrast and ease the severity of the vertical facial lines. A round face with fine hair has more options, as far as glamour looks go. Fine hair works well with bobs and other wonderful hairdos made for the round face.

Christmas Presents

I hope everyone had a great Christmas! Some time with family and friends, good food, good drinks, and good times.

"Santa" brought me a lovely table lamp ...

So that means the boys got ...

A BOX!

And THAT means ...

MORE "101 THINGS TO DO WITH A BOX"!

While Romeo is playing, Gio is in a down-stay behind the camera. You can hear him "protesting" that Romeo is getting treats and he isn't. Gio is a work in progress with the Box Game. He had a short session tonight, but as he is more inclined to killing the box, we are taking it slow. I'm trying to break him of the "101 Ways to Destroy a Box" version of the game by keeping sessions short and only clicking for his calm approaches to the box. I find it helps if I ask for a "down" before introducing the box, then he tends to do his tricks from a down position and less harm comes of the box.

Oval Face Hairstyles 2009

Oval Face Hairstyles Tips 2010

The lucky girls have an oval face! The oval shape is popular with stylists because it offers options and balance. In the oval, there is no predominant feature, and the jawbone is usually a little narrower than the cheekbones. Many different hairstyles work well with an oval face, and the adaptability of this facial structure will persuade some stylists to try more extreme styles than they would usually consider for their clients. For an example of the classic oval face, consider Jennifer Anniston. Her eyes are large, and they are well balanced by her other features: her handsomely centered nose, a lively straight forehead, and a pair of smooth yet clearly defined cheekbones. Jennifer Aniston on the cover of the GQ magazine - January 2009

The balancing act between these each of these features gives Jennifer her handsome, fresh and cool look (when combined with a great hairstyle, of course). We all have these features on our faces, but the oval face gives an easy sense of room. Some of the hairdos recommended for the oval face are the ponytail, the bob, the layered look, long hair, short hair, medium length hair, and basically any hairstyle you can think of! The oval face is often found on models, unless they are of the highly angular type used in haute couture. Perhaps it can be said that the best overall look for an oval face is the updo, with strands decorating each side of the head. This look allows the beauty of the hair to interact with the face while showing off the lovely balance in the face of the lucky girl.

Pixie Cut Hairstyles 2009

Pixie Cut Hairstyles - Rihanna, Victoria Beckham... Had It!!

The pixie cut has been a big part of Hollywood’s most sensational hairstyles since the 1950’s, when Audrey Hepburn won raves for her short hairdo. The pixie was incredibly dominant in the 1960’s as well, when Twiggy, Mia Farrow and Edie Sedgwick took center stage in their boyish hairstyles.
In the 80’s Madonna adopted the look, and today beautiful stars like Natalie Portman, Victoria Beckham, Halle Berry and Rihanna can be found like incredibly sexy and cute in their little pixie curls.
2009 Spring Summer Hairstyles Edition - Victoria Beckham Pixie Cut

The key thing that these great actresses all share is great facial bone structure. Each of their noses are pointy, and their jaw lines are all very feminine and delicate. The pixie cut can work with strong and large jawbones, but delicate cheekbones are an absolute must for the style to work. The pixie cut is actually not very versatile. There is so little hair involved that if the facial structure isn’t adequate there is very little that a stylist can do to manipulate the hair. However, colors are one area where the pixie can go crazy and still look great.

Any color can be added to the pixie, depending on the audience it is intended for. Madonna designed a bleach blonde pixie that worked incredibly well, but some punk and emo colorations are a little too wild for the red carpet when combined with this look. Pink, the R&B rocker, has worn a short cut with dayglo colors, but she is part of the music scene, which is not as reliant on glamour as the cinematic world.

Teenage Boys Hairstyles 2009, 2010

Teenage Boys Hairstyles In 2010

When boys reach their teenage years, they start to realize that their appearance has a real impact on the world around them. This leads them to the world of hairstyles and clothing choices at a later time than girls, who are prepared for the decisions by the culture around them at a much earlier date. Most boys don’t take advantage of the resources available to them when they think about developing a certain hairstyle look, not wanting to be associated with fashion magazines and other styling accessories.
They do, however, have eyes that observe the world around them. They watch the musicians and movie stars, and take their cues from them. It is rare that guys are on the cutting edge of fashion in hairstyles, though. If a rock star wears an unusual hairdo, it maybe because of a sheer accident with the scissors! But let us not forget how many rockers have created incredible and popular innovations in hairstyling. Elvis had his pompadour, a Southern innovation, the Beatles had their mops (courtesy of girlfriend Astrid Kirchherr), and Johnny Rotten had his spikes. Today, teenage boys are most likely to develop their own unique looks by working with emo haircuts or through heavy metal longhair styles. When boys start to dye their hair, they often become inspired to play around and have some fun with their follicles! Given the time required to grow the long hair needed for some rock and roll hairstyles, it is simply easier to go emo or punk, with spikes, bangs, and other simple effects.

Winter Hair Colors 2009, 2010

Winter Hair Colors in 2009,2010

In the winter of 2009 you will need colors, and lots of them! The upcoming year is shaping up to be a financially stressful time, and the onset of winter will be a depressing season. You will want to dress your hair up, regardless of its length, and you will want to go with fun and frivolous tints and dyes to brighten up your look! In the cold seasons, hairstyles generally become longer and more elegant, partly because of the winter festivals that are attended and also partly for the simple functional reason that they can provide something of a warm coat for the head and shoulders!
In the foreseeable future there is no reason to expect this broad trend to go away. When we add the pressure of an economic downturn to these trends toward longer hair, we can see that there will be many reasons to expect longer styles to predominate heavily. In order to differentiate yourself from the rest of the crowd, you will need to work with colors. Tints are probably the best way to do this.
A blonde or brunette hairstyle can be made glamorous with a few carefully chosen tints. But for more fun, you may want to try something extreme. Going from blond to raven black can be a great way to stimulate a party! And the rocking Christmas parties that you attend certainly are a fine place to try out that pink and blue scene hairstyle you’ve always wondered about. In hard times, crazy colors help lift the spirits!

African American Hairstyles 2009, 2010

African American Hairstyles In 2009, 2010

African American hairstyling has always been steeped in powerful cultural contradictions, yet this hair can be more fun to work with than any other. It took the rap and hip-hop sounds, with their hardcore assertions of complete independence, to create an atmosphere for African American hair to be whatever it wants to be. From this movement came a set of hairstyles that are radically free, amazingly varied, and always utterly unique.
African American Hairstyles

In the year 2009, modern styling techniques have made the inherited tight curl of afro hair simply a choice like any other. An African American woman can have a bushy Fro, or she can have an equally beautiful straight wavy look with fringes and tresses.
2010 African American Hairstyles

There is a question of maintenance involved, because if the African American woman has natural kinks, she will have to have them straightened on a frequent basis, which can really add up in the bank account. Even so, the quantity and quality of styles and looks available to the African American woman is now identical to any other stylist.
African American Hairstyles 2010

Anything can be done with her hair, although the straighter looks take longer. In 2009, the most important and popular hairstyle for African American woman is the same for any other, and the look comes from Rhianna, a black woman from the Caribbean island of Barbados! In a fantastic media appearance, she used an inverted bob that is sweeping the nation. African American hair is now the source of America’s most popular hairstyle!

Hairstyles for Wavy Hair 2010

Hairstyles for Wavy Hair - 2010

Wavy hair, when natural, can seem like a great gift or a curse. It all depends on how you treat it! For the individual born with a tendency to waviness, there are many hairstyles that allow you to exploit this quality for some fantastic looks without having to go to through three hours of salon treatments.
Hairstyles for Wavy Hair

Though waves can be created artificially, the natural wave is a timesaver and a money saver. It all depends on how well you take care of your hair. If you take the time to find the right shampoo and conditioner, you have saved yourself a world of effort in styling. Another problematic factor that arises when styling wavy hair is actually not very important.
Hairstyles for Wavy Hair

Is your hair wavy or curly? There are so many heads in the world, and Nature bestows so many varying degrees of curvature on us, that it is virtually impossible to point to a certain line and say, “This is curly and that is wavy.” Don’t worry about the label associated with any given hairstyle. Simply use your imagination, and visualize the look that you want for yourself.
Hairstyles for Wavy Hair 2010

If you want any degree of curling and your hair has any natural curvature, that’s great. If your hair is flaxen, don’t worry. It will take longer, but any wavy or curly look that you want can be created with styling artistry. It’s always a good idea to use the natural tendencies of your hair when styling it, of course, but in the end, it’s all up to you!

Fringe Hairstyles 2009, 2010

Fringe Hairstyles 2009, 2010

The fringe look is easy to find in any salon. It is becoming more popular everyday, and it is easily modified to work with several different styles. The fringe is usually associated with bangs, but this is not a basic requirement. Fringes occur at the edges of the hair, and they are most effective when combined with bangs, but they can also be used with updos and straightened looks. The important thing to remember about fringes is that they require time. Fringes are not created with a wave or a swoosh of the clippers. They must be individually measured and cut.
2009 Spring Summer Hairstyles Edition - Fringe Hairstyles

This means that your choice of stylist is important. A beginner may not be able to differentiate the several strands and may leave the look flat, or too uniform, just where small curls should be whirling about. Make sure when you choose you stylist that you see examples of their work in fringes. This look will cost you time and money, so you should be sure to get the best return on your investment! Fringes are all about the details.
2009 Spring Summer Hairstyles Edition - Fringe Hairstyles

When used with bangs, the detailed structure of the face becomes very important, because while the bangs must be designed with the brows and the eyes in mind, the fringes are interacting with the jaw line and the cheekbones and chin. Longer hair is better for fringes, giving them more leeway to create that fun twirling around the features of the face.

Victoria Beckham Hairstyles - Always Good Looking

The Spice Girls were unleashed upon the world by Bob Herbert’s organization, Heart Management, the record production team of Absolute Records, and the mentoring by Simon Fuller of 19 Management.

Of this group, the woman who has most successfully remained in the public eye is Posh Spice, better known now as Victoria Beckham (neé Adams).
She has used both music and fashion design to keep her profile high, and she has also created on of the more sensational hairstyles seen around the world today. This hairdo is a severe and striking inverted bob that frames her face beautifully.

Asian Hairstyles 2009, 2010

Asian Hairstyles in 2010 - Becoming More and More Trendy

The Asian hairstyle is dominated by the physical hair traits that are usually inherited by people born in Japan, Korea, China, and Southeast Asia. This ethnic group generally has very black and very straight hair. However, in each of the countries listed, there are varying attitudes toward hairstyles. China has only recently become liberated enough to allow colored hair to become popular, whereas Japan and Korea both often exceed the United States in the extremities to which hairstyles can be worn in either casual and business settings.
2009 Spring Summer Hairstyles Edition - Asian Hairstyles

The Asian hairstyle, then, usually refers to what is being designed by Japanese and Korean stylists to manipulate the hair of their people. In China, adding curls or waves to the hair can still be quite a radical move in some areas of the country.
2009 Spring Summer Hairstyles Edition - Asian Hairstyles

In Japan and Korea, metallic extensions, electric lights, and other playful extremes can be enjoyed in almost any setting one can find. The basic tension of the Asian hairstyle is the pull of the exotic away the universality of the inherited black straight hair.
2009 Spring Summer Hairstyles Edition - Asian Hairstyles

When a Japanese girl resolves to gets her hair colored, it is not unusual to see her go for a neon glow or a multicolored extravaganza in her bid to escape the ordinary straight black look all around her. A muted approach can be found on women who have had a chance to try several different looks, and here you will find tints, waves, and delicate touches that are styled to her face’s bone structure, rather than what looks different.

Bridesmaids Hairstyles 2009, 2010

Bridesmaids Hair Tips 2010 - Because It Should be a Wonderful Experience

You thought the biggest thing about the bridesmaids you would be facing is how to make all of the bridesmaid’s dresses match. Now here you are thinking about the hairstyles for bridesmaids. Personally, we believe the hairstyles for bridesmaids is a bit complicated, because you may be dealing with different personalities, different hairstyles and most of all, different lengths of hair.
Things can become further more complicated when your best friend knocks on your dare with her bright new…blue…hairstyle – yes, she dyed her hair blue. Maybe your wedding is months for now, if your best friend is up for changing her hair back to normal, then that’s good, if not – then oh well, so what, your bridesmaid has blue hair, it could add a bit of touch to your wedding.
As we said, the bridesmaids will probably have different hair lengths. For those bridesmaids who have long hair, you could ask them to wear their hair up, for the girls that hair short hair, you could give them a look that appears the same by using hairpins and sweeping their hair back, then fluffing it up in the back. When choosing the bridesmaids hairstyles, this is a decision that should be made by all of the bridesmaids and the bride.
You should make sure everyone agrees with the hairstyles they will be wearing during the wedding. The junior hairstyles, like the flower girl should look a lot like the bridesmaids hairstyles, except it should have a younger look to it.
If the bride wants the bridesmaids to wear their hair in a specific style and she wants them to use her salon, then the bride should be the one paying to get their hair done.
