Trendy Hairstyles for Winter 2011

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.)

We have been taught since we were little that good grooming and personal hygiene should always be a part of daily activities. In other words, they must not be forgotten. The way a person looks would give a first impression of how one feels on the inside. So when someone looks untidy, it would give people an impression that the person doesn’t feel good. The saying, ”Don’t judge a book by its cover” must not be forgotten though but it shouldn’t be used as an excuse to look lousy either.

Teenagers operate under a lot of peer pressure. They want to be independent and free but not so out of it they stick out. Of course there is always the exception to the rule. Some teens want to be noticed and will do about anything to attract attention. If that means a far out punk hair style, so be it. But generally, teens will follow trends. They watch MTV and are inspired by the hair styles there. Also they watch popular teen performers and tend to copy their hair styles and their style also.

An active teen may just prefer a simple hair style that won’t get in their way. If they play tennis or swim or engage in gymnastics or other intense sports they want something that is easy to take care of that still will look nice. They also operate under peer pressure so probably will look like the other athletes they hang out with.

Teen hair grows quickly as it still is young hair so if they decide to try something way out be assured it will grow back fast. Teens seem to be enchanted with multi colored hair. They put several different colors on top of a ragged spiked look. Purples and pinks seem to be popular also.

Often they match their nail color to their hair color.
Teens also cut out pictures from magazines and copy those styles also. If the hair style is not so far you might let them give it a try.

HOW THE RIGHT HAIR COLOR CAN ENHANCE YOUR LOOK

HOW THE RIGHT HAIR COLOR CAN ENHANCE YOUR LOOK

If you are interested in enhancing your look this season, then you may want to start with a fresh hair color. The first thing to keep in mind is your skin tone. Individuals with darker skin tones may choose to shy away from extremely light hair colors, as the contrast in colors may clash. Similarly, individuals with very light skin tones will want to stay away from very dark hair colors to avoid appearing washed out.
The four most common hair color choices include shades of natural blonde, brunette, black, and red. Keep in mind that the color you choose should be representative of your personality.

Hair Color

Blonde hair commonly makes individuals appear more energetic. Additionally, there are a myriad of blonde shades which can suit almost any skin tone. Darker complexion individuals can choose dark, dirty blonde shades whereas individuals with lighter complexions may way to wear a light or bleach blond color.

Brunette Hair Color

Brunette hair can also suit any skin tone. Since there are a wide variety of brunette shades, the color can be modified to suit each individual’s skin tone. If you are looking to implement a little mystery into your everyday style, then consider black hair, which commonly looks best on darker toned individuals. Lastly, red hair is always an audacious choice. This hair color will compliment those with longer length hair. However, those with short hair should decide carefully about going red. Short, red hair tends to draw out facial irregularities, so it only works on those with soft facial features.

EXOTIC HAIRSTYLES

Exotic hairstyles are styles that are far from mainstream. These hairstyles are beautiful and set you apart from the crowd. When you want to go for an entirely different look, try one of these exotic hairstyles.

Chopsticks

Chopsticks aren’t just for eating! To pull off this look, pull your hair into a tight ponytail; it should be about the middle of you head. To make sure that it holds, wrap a good, tight ponytail holder around it. Don’t worry; no one will see it. Use one that matches your hair color if you are truly worried about that. Then take your hair and wrap it into a tight bun on the back of your head. Weave your chopsticks through the bun; have one a bit closer to your head than the other. This will give you a sexy, chic style that will stay in place all day and is good even to go out in the evening.

Partial French Braid

Another beautiful style is actually very easy to do. Pull your hair half up and secure the top layers with a ponytail holder or pretty clip. Take the bottom layers and do a partial French braid. You can also do just a regular braid but the French braid is a bit more exotic. Add bobbi pins, hairspray or whatever pretty clips you might need if you have hair that wants to stay out of place. Add a nice hair decoration – such as a flower or large butterfly – just in front of your ear to the side of the braid. This lovely casual style is dressy enough for eveningwear.
