The Cons of Long Hairstyles - Summer Fall 2009 Hair Edition

While long hair is the 'in' thing for many women especially and is often seen as a sign of good health with the majority of the community raving it, there can still be certain disadvantages that are associated with it.

The Cons of Long Hairstyles

While long hair may be beautiful and can be styled in many different ways, it must be said that it requires a lot more time and effort to care and maintain it in order for it to be attractive. Comparatively, short hair is easy to maintain – even if you are late for school/work/meeting, you won't need to spend an incessant amount of time to comb, brush or style it. One of the main cons of having long hair is that if you do not care for it, it can turn out to be really ugly. When you run into situations such as that, do remember that you read it here!

Long hair takes a LONG time to grow (no pun intended there!). If you are only starting to grow your hair long, you may find that it takes almost forever to reach first to your bottom of the ears, neck then shoulders. Many tend to give up along the way and just choose to go for hair extensions instead.

One of the more well known cons of long hair is that they are more accident-prone. There are many instances where freak accidents have occurred for those with really long hair such as having it get caught in the fan blowers, vacuum cleaners, car doors, drawers and so on.

While having long hair comes with these cons, you will have to look at both sides of the coin to weigh it out yourselves.

Brown Hairstyles

By:Ryan Pattee

Brunettes are in this season and for all those teens that want to try out a brown hair style, there are many options available. One very attractive style for brown hair is the traditional Bob. In the past few years, this style has come back full swing as a popular choice for girls with brown hair. A Bob style does not mean a lot of hair will need to be cut – many times it just means altering the shape of a cut. Layering is an important factor in achieving the sleekest bob style. Variations of layering allow for many different styling options including the straight and sophisticated look or the naturally messy, tousled look for some added playfulness. Most Bob cuts require you to blow dry the ends under. However, by simply reversing this and blowdrying the ends up, a completely new look is achieved. Brown hair styles such as these can be locked in place with pomade, gel or hairspray.

A Bob is the best cut for showing off bold color contrasts as it incorporates many different lengths of layers. Teens can have fun with color choices, utilizing drastic shades to increase depth and volume. For example, contrasting a deep brown shade in your hair, along with bright red highlights on underneath layers will create a breathtaking and sharp look.

One more fun way to spice up a brown Bob haircut is to add different angles throughout the cut. Having both sides cut at an extreme angle or having one side cut shorter than the other are just a few options. The key is to be creative! Brown hair is in and teens can achieve fun and striking looks with simple variations of style and color.

For longer locks of the male persuasion, many men have made this style a growing trend. Santiago Cabrera and Ace Young have recently been seen with wavy to curly long locks to stand in line for. Here are a few ideas on how to get these looks at home.
Ace Young was seen at the Grammy’s wearing his hair to his shoulders in a wavy long style. To get this at home, simply start with wet hair and begin with a strong holding mousse, wax and hairspray. Apply the mousse between your palms and then use the palms to distribute the mousse through the hair evenly. Start at the roots and work your way out to the ends, and this will help to give the roots a boost of body. Scrunch the hair between palms and fingers starting at the ends, and working towards the scalp. This will help to build the waves you are looking for, even if you have straight hair. Part the hair at the natural part with a wide toothed comb, for a natural look. Finish up with a light mist of hairspray to hold in place.
