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.)

SUMMER 2010 TRENDY HAIRSTYLES

 

So what’s new for the summer of 2010? It is time to get a new hairstyle which can beat the heat. For women who want to keep their hair short have many options to choose from. Charlize Theron and Jessica Alba have all been noticed sporting bangs. Women can now confidently brush their bangs in different directions like the side-swept or front down. Bangs are common for all lengths of hair and add a bit of style to different personalities.

Summer is hot with bob. The bob cut can be called as the latest attraction for both men and women. There are different bob cuts for different lengths of hair. Some of them suit certain faces while there are some styles which suit all kinds of faces as well. Depending on your personal choice you can choose your favorite bob.

Some celebrities like Eva Langoria or even Anne Hathaway have been seen using the shoulder length style. The bob haircut which reaches the shoulder is pretty nice for women who are very slim and tall. In case you have a nice figure to flaunt then you can try this one.

The ‘messed up’ pixie cut is another hot trend. With small bone features this would make women look perfectly hot and selective among the group. Halle Berry in ‘Die Another Day’ has been already seen sporting this hairstyle. If the summer is too hot, then just get your hair shortened and messy with the pixie.

Coloring can be a great option with the pixie cut and most of them seem to be choosing the golden blonde. But you can also try something different if you want to look unique and add probably some black shades underneath. Consult your professional hairdresser and get the best one suited to your pixie hairstyle.

URBAN HAIRSTYLES FOR TRENDY CASUAL LOOK

URBAN HAIRSTYLES FOR TRENDY CASUAL LOOK

Natural, earthy hairstyles are both trendy and easy to maintain. Furthermore, there are many to choose from! With urban hairstyles, you are sure to find one that adequately suits your style and personality. Additionally, these hairstyles costs very little money to maintain, as they don’t necessarily need to be updated with cut or color every four weeks like some high maintenance styles require.

One popular urban hairstyle is dreadlocks. Dreads can look classic and awesome on both men and women, and are in style amongst many individuals who support the green movement. This is largely because dreads take very little time and product to maintain. They are not often washed and they use virtually zero hair products to create. Dreads are definitely in this season: just ask frontrunner in American Idol’s latest season, Crystal Bowersox.

Urban Hair 2010

Another popular urban hairstyle includes braids. Braiding hair may take a decent amount of time, but the style can last for weeks. It can even be washed without falling out! There are various types of braids you can choose from. You can choose to get a single braid which comes together in the back of your head, or you can choose to get your entire head braided! These hairstyles are common for vacationers who visit tropical islands. A multi-braided head of hair is not only easy to maintain, but it looks awesome!

Some other types of urban hairstyles include short cuts, afros, and ponytails. Many of these styles are used by African Americans as their hair cannot be washed as often. Therefore, lower maintenance styles are necessary to keep the hair healthy.

You can add flowers, ribbons braided with your hair, or even jeweled pins to give you a glamorous look perfect for any formal or semi-formal affair.

CHERYL COLE TRENDY HAIRSTYLES

Cheryl Cole is a beautiful woman who is no stranger to public scrutiny. She understands that being in the public eye will mean that she’ll always face the fashion critics who are waiting in the wings. However, many people agree that Cheryl has absolutely beautiful hairstyles, and she always looks sexy no matter what she is doing.

Cheryl Cole’s Long Locks

In one of her beautiful styles, she wears curls that go past her shoulders in flowing ringlets. If you desperately want this style, but your hair is much too short, then you can get extensions. Cheryl herself has gotten extensions, in order to get extra body in her hair. There is no shame in getting hair extensions if you really want a certain style! After you wash your hair, add sculpture lotion because it will work better than mousse where hold is concerned. Part your hair on the left side, divide the rest in sections, and then use a paddle brush while you blow dry and smooth your hair.

Cheryl Cole’s Big Wavy Hair

To get great curls you should use medium-sized hot rollers or a curling iron. Medium-sized ones will give give you the best set of curls. The key is to curl all the way up to the hair root. Once your curls have cooled, you can use your fingers to separate them into the waves that you want, and then you just have to add some hairspray to keep everything in place. Clips can be perfect if you need to keep your bangs back, otherwise you can just let them sweep across your forehead.

TRENDY HAIRSTYLES FOR SQUARE FACES

The right hairstyle is the difference between looking great and looking like a joke. It does not matter how beautiful you are – if your hairstyle is horrible, that is what will be noticed. Never just choose a hairstyle by just finding the first picture you like or closing your eyes and pointing. You are just about guaranteed to end up with a terrible hairstyle. Always choose a hairstyle based on the shape of your face. This makes it much easier to choose the perfect hairstyle.

Square shaped faces have a very strong and dominant jaw line. What you need to do with your hairstyle is soften that jawline. Using muted layers and rounded hairstyles will soften the sharp edges of your face. You should wear styles that are short to medium in length and that have waves. Bangs are also very useful in softening your face. Side-swept fringes with long layered waves will help. Make sure that your hair falls to the tops of the shoulders or just above the jaw line.

Mandy Moore has sqare face shape

Don’t wear hairstyles that are long and straight because this will bring out your jawbone and make your face seem even more square, which is exactly what you are trying to avoid. Also avoid straight cut bangs, all one length hairstyles, and center partings, as these will emphasize your square shaped face. Instead of wearing a straight bob that ends at the jaw line, wear a layered bob that ends either just above or just below the jaw line. Make sure you add height to the crown of your head, bangs, and get some roundness and you’ll look beautiful.
