Trendy Hairstyles for Winter 2011

When it comes to hairstyles, we have seen a variety of different things in the last few years. There was a time when stick straight hair was popular. Just this past year, it was popular to scrunch your hair for that fresh off the beach look. However, this year is taking a complete different turn.

Instead of unnatural looking hair and styles that can potentially damage your hair, this year is making an emphasis on your natural hair. That’s right, natural curls, straight hair, wavy hair, no matter what kind of hair you have, this year it’s stylish and considered very trendy.

You can also emphasis your natural hair as well. For example, if you have naturally curly hair, you can use texture cream or gel in order to make sure that your curls stay in (it also makes them a lot less poofy when you let it down). You can also leave them as they are. For waves, you can braid your hair and take it out and see if it makes it look wavier; it’s up to you what you would like to do as far as hair goes.

On the other hand, bright colors have also reached a peak as far as hair color goes. Some of the hottest hair color trends are bright hair colors such as fire engine red and lime green and even bright blueberry blue. These colors are best paired with dark hair, but also work very well with blonde or even red hair. (Keep in mind that unless you are a natural platinum blonde that you will definitely need to have portions of your hair bleached.)

When you go into a hair salon you are faced with lots of decisions. One may be to color or not to color. You also are faced with how you want your hair styled. This then leads to the right hair cut.

There are a lot of ways you can get your haircut. The simplest way is to get a buzz cut. The only question here is what length clipper blade do you want used on it and do you want the sides or back longer than the top or the top a bit longer than the sides.

Next there is the question of a scissor cut versus a razor cut. Sometimes you will encounter a stylist you only cuts hair with scissors. Others use both. And some others prefer using a razor to cut hair. You won’t know this until you are face to face with your stylist.

Generally a scissors is used for a blunt cut edge. The result is smooth and straight. You might use scissors with very fine hair or curly hair. A razor is used for a more jagged edged hair style. A stylist may say they can cut your hair as short with a razor as with a clipper. A razor cut leaves the ends more uneven. A razor will also be used to lessen the weight of heavy hair. A razor can be used to soften and texture thick hair. Which one you choose will determine your final hair shape and style.

Be sure not to dry your hair completely because this can make it frizz out and begin to look too dry. Stop using the diffuser when your hair is moderately damp. Before turning your hairdryer off, switch to a quick burst of cold hair and run it through your locks. This will set your hair into place.

KATE GOSSELIN LATEST HAIRSTYLES

Reality television mom Kate Gosselin has certainly been in the news a lot. It was no surprise that she decided to go and get a new hairstyle after the chaos she has been through. Many women decide to get a new haircut after finding out their husbands cheated on them, and after all that and a divorce she deserved a new hairstyle.

In January Kate debuted a style where she had extensions. Everyone has gotten use to Kate’s short style so seeing her with beautiful long hair came as a shock to many. Yet Kate looked fantastic. Her extensions took her hair down past her shoulders while her bangs were cut to just above her eyebrows. Her hair was parted on the side, with her bangs swept across her forehead. The look was very flattering but didn’t seem to suit Kate’s personality. The curl in her hair was cute and bouncy, and while the style was sexy, it probably wasn’t really suited to a mother of eight’s lifestyle.

Indeed, in February she changed her hair yet again. She had her hair cut to just brush the tops of her shoulders. The haircut is choppy but shows off her highlights beautifully. It’s flattering and seems more suited to her age and lifestyle, which makes it even more sexy on her. Her hair is parted off-center and her bangs are swept across her forehead. Her layered hair is framing her face, and the look is pretty and simple. It would be much easier to style than her previous long, curly hair and the curls are almost completely gone.
