Magnificent Medium Length Hair Styles

Magnificent Medium Length Hair Styles

If you have longer hair you may consider getting a haircut to a more moderate medium length. This would be at the shoulders or slightly shorter. Medium length hair gives you many choices of hair styles that will certainly change your appearance with each style change.
Medium Hair


Medium length hair can have a dramatic look. Part the hair on one side and sweep it back at the other side into a roll of luscious curls. Or part it down the middle and then curl the ends so they flit up flirtingly. Medium length hair can be curled under at the ends so you have a sleek bob look. Short hair can be layered so it has a shingled look. Some of the layers could be colored so when it moves it shimmers with all different layers of light.
Lovely Medium Hairdo

With medium length hair you can also have bangs. You can roll the bangs under at the forehead for a retro hair style look. Letting them fall to one side then using a lovely small jeweled hair clip will make your hair style look alive as the rhinestones catch the light. You can use an Alice band at the forehead and have a much more severe look. You can use a styling gel and get a lot of lift at the top for interest. Since a medium length hair cut is not too drastic, it is easier to accept the change. Once you make this change, you will enjoy having shorter hair.

Bridesmaid Hairstyle for All the Bridesmaids

Bridesmaid Hairstyle for All the Bridesmaids

It will soon be your wedding day and you have decided on your bridesmaids, their dresses and their shoes, but what about their hair style? You probably have thought a lot about your hair style but perhaps not your bridesmaids’ hair style.
You certainly don’t want to dictate a hairstyle to your bridesmaids. That is not a good idea. However you could make some suggestions that they certainly will give some thought to. If all of your bridesmaids have about the same length hair, and this is a possibility, then you could suggest they all wear an up do or a down do. Or even a combination of both.
But it is more likely that your bridesmaids will all have different hair lengths. If that is the case, then you really can’t have them all wear a similar hair style. But you do want them to all have a similar appearance so you could have them wear matching sparkly hair clips or flowers caught up in their hair. You don’t want them to have to be worrying whether their hair is going to fall down or that pins will come flying out of it. So try to keep their hair style simple. If they are wearing it up, make sure they have used lots of hair spray so it is a controlled hair style.
Ideally you want them to look pretty and not clash with you. It is your special wedding day and they are all happy for you.

Accessorizing Your Hair with Class

Accessorizing Your Hair with Class

You’ve seen those women. The kind that have so many barrettes, pony tail holders, clips and bows in their hair that you can’t see the actual hair. Unfortunately, sometimes women feel as if their hair just isn’t pretty unless it is decorated as much as possible. When accessorizing your hair, there are a few rules that are important to remember so that you look elegant and classy rather than gaudy and child-like. Think about it – children love to over-decorate their hair, right? It’s just not pretty on adults.

DON’T overdo it on the hair accessories. Whether you are using glue-in sparkles and glitter or just small hair holding clips, it is important to find out what is tasteful and what is too much. A few colorful clips for a fun occasion, or a few glue-in sparkles for a night on the town may be elegant and tasteful, but anything more than that and it’s important to consider how much is too much. DO find other ways to hold your hair into place. One of the biggest reasons women overdo it on hair clips is that they have small wisps of hair that need to be held into place, and think this is a colorful and fun way to do it. Unless you have fewer than a few wisps, however, try using bobby pins that match the color of your hair to hold it in place without being conspicuously bright and gaudy. Following these few tips can help you greatly in accessorizing your hair with class and elegance.

But in both cases the hair can be given a natural curly look for both long as well as short tresses. There are different ways to make the curls look beautiful, natural and classy.

How To Get Hair Like Jordana Brewster

How To Get Hair Like Jordana Brewster

If you have seen Jordana Brewster on television or in any of her feature films, you will probably remember her lusciously styled hair. Jordana’s gorgeous, dark locks fall just below her shoulders. Her bangs are cut across her forehead, and her hair is slightly textured to fit the shape of her face. If you like the look of one-toned, straight, simple hair, than Jordana’s look is exactly what you need- and here is how you get it:

1. Detangle and smoothen hair before you get into the shower, then apply a moisturizing shampoo which will maximize the likelihood that your hair will turn out looking pin-straight. There are many “straightening” shampoos available for this purpose.
2. Do not shower in hot water, this can dry your hair out and make it less silky. Additionally, hot water will prevent the moisturizing shampoo from doing its job.
3. Finish your shower off with a cold splash of water into your hair. This will increase the overall shine of your hair.
4. Scrunch hair dry to avoid hair breakage. Never rub your hair with a towel!
5. Apply a shining serum, and use a flat brush while blow drying your hair in different sections. This will prevent you from missing any kinks in your hair, which can ruin your look completely.
6. After you are satisfied with the look of your hair, apply some anti-frizz serum. This will keep your hair looking light, silky, and smooth throughout the day. Additionally, anti-frizz serum is extremely important in hot weather because heat tends to make hair dry out and frizz up. So don’t forget your anti-frizz during those summer months!

The Pros And Cons To Blow Drying

The Pros And Cons To Blow Drying

There are both pros and cons which come along with choosing to blow dry your hair rather than letting it air dry. Many people choose to blow dry their hair in moderation and letting it air-dry a few days out of the week. This is a great option as you can allow your hair time to recuperate from using a blow dryer.

It is no secret that using a blow dryer is by far the most convenient way of styling your hair. However, if you use a blow dryer too often, it can become very dangerous for your hair. You may have noticed on weeks where you have had to use a blow dryer more than usual that your hair begins to dry out. This is because excessive use of hair dryers causes damage and breakage which can become very difficult to repair.

If you decide to blow your hair dry on a daily basis, you must be sure to avoid blowing the hair dry when it is soaking wet. Not only will this take a very long time to dry, but you are unnecessarily prolonging the amount of time which you are applying damaging heat to your hair. Also, be sure to keep the hairdryer 6-8 feet away from your head at all times. Holding the dryer close to your head can severely dries out your hair, and you may even burn your scalp! Lastly, do not dry your hair all the way through. The best option is to stop using the blow dryer while your hair is still damp.

How to Blow Dry Your Hair

How to Blow Dry Your Hair

If you use a blow dryer on your hair every day, then you will want to take special measures to keep your hair from drying out. Excessive heat from the blow dryer can be very damaging for your hair. Luckily, steps can be taken to prevent hair damage from occurring.

1. Be sure to use conditioner. This will keep your hair feeling and looking hydrated, even after you have used a blow dryer.

2. Upon exiting the shower, get as much moisture out of your hair as possible. You will want to scrunch the wetness out with a towel, but be sure not to rub!

3. Apply a protective hair product or mousse which is designed to make your hair damage resistant to heat. Many of these products will steam once heat hits them, so don’t be alarmed- you aren’t on fire!

4. Never put the blow dryer directly against your hair. It is important to keep it 4-6 inches away from your hair at all times.

5. After your hair is mostly dry, you can begin to style each individual section. This may require clipping and separating different sections of your hair. If you have shorter hair, you may only need to run the dryer through it once before straightening or applying product.

Best Wedding Hair Accessories

Best Wedding Hair Accessories

A woman's wedding day is a source of great joy for her. But it is also a source of great stress. It is hard to find the perfect dress, shoes, hairstyle, and then on top of that you must plan the reception and wedding itself. When it comes to hairstyles, once you have chosen the one that you want the most, you then have to decide whether or not you want to wear any accessories. Accessories will give your wedding hairstyle a modern, updated twist and will make you look very elegant and sophisticated.

There is a wide variety of accessories that you can choose from. There are tiaras, headbands, clips, hairpins, feathers, and much more that you can choose from. You need to make sure that you choose the right accessories. You want to have a balanced and stylish look, not one that leaves you looking like you are either trying too hard or even worse, not hard enough. If you are having an outdoor wedding for example, then you may not want to go with fake flowers, but you may want to go with real flowers. These will look better than artificial flowers if you are having a wedding in the park or on a beach.

Another thing that you need to remember is to accessorize based on your face shape. Round faces will look the very best with a tiara that is V angled while bands look best with long faces. Oval faces should avoid angled accessories but look great with a tiara, hairband, or something that huddles up to the back of the hair.

This is an easy style for anyone to get. All you have to do is put your hair half up. Medium-length hair is the perfect length for this style but longer hair will work just as well. Make sure that you use a shampoo and conditioner that will build up volume in your hair, and any styling products you use should help build volume as well. If you have fine hair and you want to tease it into a big hairstyle like what Jessica wears then you should use protein based products as these will help to build up your hair. Use a blow dryer and round brush to add even more bounce to your hair and remember that the bigger the barrel the bigger the hair. Tease through the crown to have the right height and use hairspray to hold it all in place.

Shakira Trendy Hairstyles

Shake It Like Shakira - Get Shakira Hair For Summer 2010

If you have long, naturally wavy locks, then you may want to consider getting a Shakira inspired hairstyle. Shakira’s hair is long, wavy, clean, and simple. Additionally, it is sexy, exotic, and extremely easy to maintain. To turn your bed head into long, wavy, Shakira locks, try following a few simple steps:

1. When you go to your stylist, have her cut a bunch of layers into your hair. If you plan on making your hair super curly and wavy, you will want to give it a little extra body. This is especially the case if your hair is very long. Your style will appear fresher and hold for longer if you have a high quality layered cut.

2. Scrunch after showering! Upon exiting the shower, you will want to comb your hair out with a thick-toothed comb. Then you should scrunch a curling mouse or texture-creating product into your wet hair. Then, you can either let your hair air-dry, or blow it dry with either a diffuser or a regular hairdryer on low power.

3. After you hair is dry and curled like crazy, you will want to pick it out again. The goal here is to obtain wavy curls which are loose and lovely. You don’t want them sticking together.

4. The finishing touches for your hair should include a few shots of hairspray and a dash of anti-frizz serum. This will keep your hair looking shiny, springy, and fresh all day long. Let’s hope you don’t mind signing a few autographs!

Summer Hair and Flowers

Summer Hair and Flowers - 2010 Hairstyles Tips

This summer, accessories are all the rage. Whether you use headbands, hair jewelry, or something else, accessories are the must have for the summer. If you want a great back to nature look that is simple and attractive, try using flowers. This is especially useful if you have a beach ready hairstyle, or a short style that you need to jazz up a bit but don't want to spend a lot of money on accessories.

Once upon a time, the choice of flowers as hair accessories was a really bad one. This was mainly because there was not much variety of flowers. Many women chose to wear a real flower in their hair because the accessories were so terrible. Now floral accessories come in a wide variety of attractive colors and flowers so there is sure to be something for every woman and for every occasion. In fact, white floral accessories are the number one kind and are perfect for an event such as a wedding.

If you have curls or waves flowers are an excellent choice. The same goes for a sleek hairstyle. The flowers bring out the natural beauty of your hair. It's easy to add flowers to your hair. Many simply secure with a clip while a few others actually tie into your hair, which is great if you prefer a braided style. And while flowers are a common site on vintage hairstyles, they look just as elegant on modern styles. Adding roses or another flower can add a nice romantic appeal to your hairstyle. If you are wearing a classy twist or even a ballerina bun, flower accessories can make your hair appear more elegant, romantic, and you are sure to look beautiful.

Hot Hair Color Tips 2010

Hot Hair Color Tips Summer 2010

There are ways to protect your hair color from fading. If you’ve spend a good handful of cash to get a professional color put into your hair, then you will want to maintain that color for as long as possible. The following tips will allow you to get the most for your money.
1. Make sure to choose a color that actually suits you. You don’t want to spend your time and money getting a color set into your hair that you absolutely hate! Remember, every time you dye your hair you are slightly damaging it. So you should avoid getting your hair colored excessively or on a whim.
2. If you want to add some texture to your hair, consider getting a multi-toned hairstyle. This will update your haircut, making your look hot and trendy.
3. Keep in mind that adding a color into your hair doesn’t have to be a drastic change. Many people prefer to have a color put into their hair which looks natural and will not look terrible if it begins to fade over time. This is why many blondes will simply get a slightly different tone of blonde highlighted into their hair.
4. When choosing a hair color, be sure to pick one which adequately compliments your skin tone. If you have darker skin, you will want to stay away from extremely light colors. Additionally, if you are very pale, you should stay away from extreme dark or light colors, as these will cause you to appear washed out.

Kelly Osborne Vintage Hair

Kelly Osborne Vintage Hair

Kelly Osborne is the daughter of the well-loved Ozzy Osborne. She has been on the show “The Osbornes” and has come a long way from the girl she was to the beautiful young woman she now is. Her weight struggles as well as her strong sense of self have endeared her to many and she has been on “Dancing with the Stars” and looked incredible on the show. Kelly is not afraid to wear her hair any way she likes nor is she deterred if her chosen hairstyle isn't considered to be right in fashion.

For “Dancing with the Stars” Kelly wore a short, vintage hairstyle. Kelly has a square shaped face, and many styles are hard for those who have square faces to wear and look nice in. Many people with square faces find it difficult to find a style that won't make their face seem even more square. Many avoid short styles under the belief that they will look even worse if they wear them. Kelly has proven that a square face looks great in a short hairstyle. Part of it may be that she is extremely confident and that confidence makes her appear even more lovely than she already is. After all, confidence is always beautiful.

Kelly's hair is styled very close to the head. Her bangs are styled in a curve that swoops down the middle of her forehead and curls right back up. The slight curl in her hair is brought out more by the shininess her hair has, making it catch the light and it looks incredible. Trimmed around the ears, her hair is styled where it comes just along the outside edges of her eyes, not quite touching. This is a good idea for those who have a square shaped face. The swoop of the bangs and the way the hair comes to almost the corner of the eyes helps to soften the lines of the face and it's an easy style to take care of, making it even better.

Beyonce Spiral Curly Hairstyle

Beyonce's Spiral Curly Hairstyle

Beyonce is a well known star. Many people love her for her fantastic voice, while others adore her fashion sense. She has become a role model and fashion icon for many women and girls around the world. Beyonce is not afraid to be a curvy woman, and she helps to make other women be comfortable in their own skins. Beyonce also has incredibly beautiful hair that is the envy of many women.

Beyonce's hair always looks great, and the spiral style that she wears gives her hair lots of curl and lots of bounce. This style is playful, fun, and still flirty and sexy. Medium and longer length hair is perfect for this style which will look good on just about any woman. Beyonce has her hair parted in the middle, and her bangs are parted as well. Her hair falls naturally around her face and shoulders, but not in her face. The look is a very open one and makes her seem very approachable.

This is a very simple style for anyone to get. If your hair is already naturally curly, then you pretty much just need to add some styling gel while your hair is damp and scrunch with your fingers to get a look that is almost exactly like Beyonce's. Otherwise just use medium-sized rollers or small Velcro rollers. A small curling iron will work as well. Make sure you curl your hair in a spiral around the rollers or curling iron in order to get the same look. Use smoothing serum or whatever product you prefer to control frizz and part in the center.

Exotic Hairstyles Trends

Exotic Hairstyles Trends

When you are looking for exotic hairstyles look to places in the world that have different hair types than you do, and try to create some of the looks they have.

Look at Tyra Banks or Beyonce, if you have some thick, wavy hair no matter what culture you belong to, you can have gorgeous long hair with long wavy locks that will bring out your wild side! You can show large confidence in your personality with a style like theirs. Just match it to your overall look and tailor it to your face shape.

If you have hair that is straighter, you can go with some Asian looks like the Pixie haircut or a long, sensuous wavy cut. Both of these will accentuate your facial features and draw out your eyes, nose, and cheeks. If your longer cut has bangs that are long or layered, you can also have a sexy, side-swept look that will hide larger foreheads or very angular features and allow the face to look very feminine and soft.

Finally, if you are looking for something cuter, Kelly Osbourne has given us plenty of options last year on Dancing With The Stars for different looks that can work with round faces. She has shown us a wispy look that draws attention away from round faces and creates a balance that gives off a youthful, playful look. She has also shown us a closer, almost-bob style that was curled at the ends for a very innocent look. And then she was able to go with an up-style that looked very spiky and gave Kelly a look with very sensual, feminine undertones!

Sarah Harding Trendy Blonde Hairstyles

Sarah Harding Trendy Blonde Hairstyles

This British pop icon has flooded the fashion scene with her white-blonde hairstyle and outlandish attitude in a big way in 2009. She has recently taken the fashion forward approach to her hairstyle by getting a chic bob hairstyle that is rapidly becoming a celebrity trend into 2010.
Sarah’s face is somewhat short in the forehead and overall round shaped, and this new bob was cut high to keep her face from looking rounder. She also can look more seductive with the use of side-swept bangs when she chooses. She keeps the back of her hair short now and uses the angles on her bangs to frame her face in very flattering ways. She has brought out the fun side of her personality with this hairstyle!

Her usual medium length and longer length cuts actually used the same kinds of angles for her bangs. Sarah never seemed to have her hair all one length. She used layers and choppy cuts that always gave her a very modern look. Her hairstyle has always been a clear reflection of her edgy and wild personality!

Sarah has two other advantages – her face is very feminine and she has very small features. So she has it a little easier when she wants to flit back and forth between short and long styles. You can work some angles and lengths for your hair for various face shapes, but do some research online for pictures and descriptions that can flatter your facial features before you choose a new look. No matter what, have fun choosing your new style!

Super Sleek Hair

Super Sleek Hair

If you are tired of spending over thirty minutes blow-drying, teasing, and tweaking your hair every time you get out of the shower, then it might be time to try something new. By following these simple steps, you can test whether super sleek hair is right for you. In addition to looking like a supermodel, you will save some of that precious socializing time by cutting your styling minutes in half!

After washing your hair, it is important to thoroughly dry it with a towel that is not rough to the touch. This will allow you to remove a majority of the moisture from your hair without drying it out or damaging. Remember, the more moisture you remove from your hair using a towel rather than a blow-dryer, the less dry it will be. Secondly, you should apply your choice of hair cream. Mousses and gels will not give you the same effect, in fact, they will make your turn out completely differently, so be careful with your product choice.

Here comes the fun part! After you douse your hair in product, blow it try upside down. Be sure to use one hand to smooth your hair as it is drying, but do not over dry your hair! Going crazy with the blow-dryer can cause some serious damage and dryness. Lastly, if you’re hair is stubborn and likes to frizz up, you can smooth and shape the ends with your choice of round brush. This process is simple and will turn your sleep hair into super sleek hair!

Braiding Hairstyles, Summer 2010

Braids have been around for hundreds of years, and it is easy to see why – they are beautiful. Who hasn't seen a lovely, braided style and thought how gorgeous it was? Braids are suitable for any occasion, and for any face shape. There are many different kinds of braids, and as long as your hair is at least medium length you can take advantage of them. Whether you need a formal, semi-formal, or casual style, you can find braids that will suit your needs and your personality.

One of the simplest yet most elegant styles that you can wear is a braided bun. All you need is a couple of hair elastics, preferably ones that match your hair color and won't cause any damage, bobby pins, and possibly hairspray or mousse. For very unruly hair, you may even need to add in styling gel. To get this sexy look, pull your hair tightly back into a ponytail that is at about the middle of your head and secure with an elastic. Braid your hair and secure with another elastic. Now just wrap the braid around the base to make a bun and use hairpins to secure it. You can add accessories as needed, but this look is great for formal or casual occasions.

If you have medium or longer hair, you may want to leave most of it loose but add a braid or three for a cute accent. This is an adorable look that can really complete an outfit or just give you a cute addition for a casual event. Simply style your hair, but add a couple of braids on one side and let them fall alongside your face, dot your hair, or even pin them back along either side of your head for a cute milkmaid look. This style is simple to do and you are sure to be the only one who wears it. This is a good thing! Braids are so versatile that you can do just about anything you want with them and look wonderful. Try adding ribbons or flowers to your braids for unique looks that are all your own.

Long, sleek hair is an excellent style for summer 2010. Whether layered or all one length, long hair looks excellent when it's healthy and sleek. Use a flat iron and smoothing serum to get the look, which won't take you very long at all to do. There is nothing wrong with long hair during the summer, so if it's what you want, try the sleek look for a sexy new hairstyle.

For those who love short hair, pixies are as popular as ever. Extremely short, or the newer layered pixie that is just a little bit longer, either one is great for most women. If your face shape normally prohibits you from enjoying a pixie cut, then you might want to consider one of the layered pixies. These styles are a bit longer while still retaining the look and shape of the traditional pixie, and are great ways to use bangs to make the look work for you.
Medium hair lovers will adore the shag style this summer. This layered cut is great because it is extremely easy to style. In fact, many people use their fingers and nothing else! Light-weight thanks to the layers, it is very attractive with its razor textures at the ends. Shags can be longer or shorter depending on personal preference, but they always look great and are excellent for anyone, no matter what shape their face is.

Graduated Bob Hairstyle for Summer

Graduated Bob Hairstyle for Summer

One hairstyle that never goes out of style is the bob hairstyle. Bobs are great short hairstyles that are easy to maintain, attractive, and versatile. The bob can be adjusted to suit any face shape. The graduated bob is just one of the many different kinds of bobs that you can get. This bob suits pretty much all face shapes, and is a good way of showing off both your face and any coloring ideas that you have.

Usually, the graduated bob is short at the back of your neck and gets longer as you get towards your face. Graduated layers need to be cut in such a way that your hair has body and movement. To get the graduated look, the sides should be step cut neatly. You can part it straight on one side or do an uneven parting on the side and it will still look great. You can even wear this kind of bob long – simply cut your hair short at the nape of the neck but use long and graduated sides, with the length just above your chest at the longest point, and part your hair in the middle.

There are many ways to style a graduated bob. For example, style some hair in waves and leave some straight. Use sweeping side bangs to make your graduated bob look soft and sensual. You can add a fringe for an even more unique look. A straight blunt fringe to your eyebrows will give you a bold look, while a softer look can be gotten from cutting your bangs into a wispy fringe and sweeping it sideways. Straight fringes will give you a cute, fun look, so just experiment until you find what you love!

Nicole Scherzinger Hair Color

Nicole Scherzinger Hair Color

Nicole Scherzinger is a beautiful woman who is the lead singer of the well-known group, the Pussycat Dolls. Nicole is extremely talented because she is a singer, a songwriter, a dancer, and an actress. Her beautiful hair is the envy of many women who long to have her signature look.
Nicole Scherzinger
You may be surprised that Nicole's hair is natural. She was blessed with such beautiful hair thanks to her genes. If your hair is naturally black, you can easily get her hair color. In fact, if your hair is healthy, you probably already have her hair color. You can enhance your highlights if you want to but if your hair is healthy, you probably won't need to. If your hair is any other color and you want to match Nicole's then you'll need to dye your hair black. Before you dye your hair, make sure that it's healthy, as this will lessen any damage your hair may get from the dyeing process. Many professional stylists will refuse to dye your hair if it's broken, very dry, or otherwise unhealthy, so just make sure to start using that conditioner!

If you have never colored your hair, it is best that you see a stylist. This way you will be able to get the color that you are looking for without having to worry about messing up your hair. Keep in mind that your skin tone plays an important part in how your hair will ultimately look. Very pale skin tones may not look all that great with black hair; in fact, the look can be startling. If you don't mind this, or know that black hair will look great on you, then go ahead and dye it black. If you have good natural highlights, then you may not have to add highlights. If you do, make sure that they will enhance your own highlights and go for colors that will shine silvery or a deeper black.

Beach Hair Ideas

Beach Hair Ideas for Summer 2010

Everyone loves the beach, but no one likes having to spend a long time trying to get a hairstyle that will look good on the beach without becoming flat or frizzed. There are several styles that you can choose from that will give you a great look without all the fuss, and will get you out and having fun in the sun in no time.

One of the best styles to wear for the beach is a low-key wavy style. This style is very easy to do yourself, so you don't have to worry about getting an appointment with a stylist. In fact, this style looks best when it's not perfectly done! Wash your hair and towel dry, then put it up in a few fat braids and go to bed. When you get up in the morning, just undo the braids, comb your fingers through your hair, and you're ready to hit the beach. This look won't frizz or anything, and you'll look great all day long.

Another great style is just a ponytail. Yes, a ponytail. Pull your hair into a ponytail, preferably a low one, and then separate the tail into two different sections. Simply twist them about halfway down and secure. This is a cute and trendy look that will keep your hair cleaner and out of your face. You can also try a braid instead of just a twist, and that will look wonderful on the beach as well. Adding a flower or other accessories is a great idea for a beach party.

2010 Straight Bangs Haircuts

2010 Straight Bangs Haircuts

Bangs are as popular in 2010 as they were in 2009, possibly even more so. Bangs are great ways to change your style or even to make a statement. Straight hairstyles look wonderful with bangs, and there are a wide variety to choose from. Make sure that you talk to your stylist so that you can find the hairstyle that will suit you best. Some people look better with very short, blunt bangs while others need long, wispy straight bangs. Look at pictures and take them with you so your stylist knows what you're wanting; this way, you're sure to walk out with the best possible style for you.

Bold bangs are the statement of the year for 2010. Straight hairstyles may have bangs that are flat and straight, or that are straight but swept to the side. Some styles have bangs that are cut with razors into fringes that help to bring out your best features. For example, some of the newer pixie cuts are longer, cut in layers, and feature a razored fringe that helps to add volume and style; this keeps your pixie cut from being flat looking in the front.

A great medium length straight hairstyle is the medium bob. This style is a basic or angled bob that is cut to medium length, instead of to the nape of the neck. Long straight bangs that either come over one eye or are pinned back are perfect for these styles. You can always wear your hair in straight layers with your bangs pushed to one side, or even grow your bangs out so that they are the same length as the rest of your hair and will allow you to easily frame your face.

Highlighted Hairstyles in 2010

Highlighted Hairstyles in 2010

I keep seeing a trend among celebrities and women every time I turn on the TV: short to medium hairstyles with subtle highlights. It makes me feel good that I’m in style (except for the subtle highlights part) because I keep my hair short ritually. I’m one of those women a short hairstyle looks good on. My head is apple-shaped (I’m not kidding; my nickname was “Applehead” growing up) so my hair style is flat, and my bangs are cut so that they’re always side swept. The left side of my hair is longer than the right, but both sides are kept flat to my ears and the sides of my face. Sounds crazy, but it looks stunning. If I do say so myself.

I love it, but you’ll probably never see anyone on the red carpet wearing it. I don’t know if that’s a good thing or a bad thing, as I don’t want a million clones of my haircut walking around. And you probably don’t either. So while I’ll let you in on the highlighted hairstyles of this year, I want you to take a chance and personalize it to you.

Short cuts are in, of course. The great thing about short hair is that you can play with it. You might think it’s stuck in that particular style, but it’s not. When I first got my hair cut it was super short, almost boyish in length. But it’s grown out in that exact same style and now it looks better with some length to it. If you get your hair cut short, and are unhappy with it, remember that it’s just hair. It’ll grow back.

No one said you had to keep a short haircut either. You can always grow it out to shoulder length. Medium hair-length is all the rage this year, because it’s just so easy to maintain and take care of, and can be worn in any style you choose. Remember, the key to personalizing it is making it your own, so talk to your stylist about what you want done, and enjoy your new hairstyle.

Tailor Swift Hairstyles

Tailor Swift Hairstyles

Tailor Swift’s hair is absolutely envious. She might jump out of her normal routine and wear it flat and straight, which looks fine, but her hair is naturally curly. Those ringlets you see on the red carpet are hers. Yeah, I’m jealous too!

You’ll hardly ever see the pretty singer without getting an eyeful of those gorgeous curls. Sometimes she manipulates them into being tight or loose, but they’re never too big or too little. They’re always just right.
Tailor Swift’s Lovely Curly Hair

Of course, she doesn’t just wake up and have perfect hair, though it looks like she does. If you’re wondering how to get that effortless, tame ringlet look, try these pointers:
For naturally curly or wavy hair, use a leave in conditioner. You can even mix it with your favorite texturizing product. Apply it from the ears downward; leave the top alone.

To prevent frizz, don’t touch your hair while blow drying. Use a long finger diffuser attached to your blow dryer and go through your hair slowly, not combing but supporting strands so that they can dry evenly. If your hair is thin and needs volume, bend over at the waist and blow dry your hair from the roots up.

If your hair is naturally straight, you’ll need a curling iron to get this look. Try something with a barrel that’s at least 1” thick. You don’t necessarily have to have tight curls; remember the looser they are the more natural it looks. Finish it off with a good natural hold hairspray. If you need shine, you can add a drop of serum to the roots, but let the curls shine on their own.

Hair Shade Trends 2010

Hair Shade Trends 2010

This year actually has a hair shade trend that I want to try: plum highlights. That actually makes me want some fruit too, but plum highlights sound great because my hair is already a dark shade. I’ve always wanted to try this. Sounds silly, but now I have an excuse to.

Not that crazy bright plum either, but a deep plum, the kind that’s sophisticated and classy. Actually, I might run out and get it done later on today. That’s how giddy I am about it.

Look for darker shades of brown this year, like rich chocolates, cocoa and even mahogany. Since the shade trends are dark, you’re going to see vibrant, deep reds, like mahogany, and even deeper shades of blonde. Except maybe in California, where for some reason sun-streaked strands are still relatively normal.

If you’re going to go blond, try for a honey color. That’s a nice medium between light and dark. You can even go darker, if you’d like; some blond colors are actually closer to brunette than they are to actual blond. Those shades look natural, and are soft, not harsh, so you probably won’t wind up asking what possessed you to do it a day later. Plus, going severely light on your hair all at once, may damage it. With a darker color blond, you’re saving your hair from drying out, becoming brittle and/or breaking.

Don’t be shocked if you see a couple of lavender hues round about town either. In fact, applaud, because that woman is bolder than I’ll ever be, and she probably looks good with it.

Summer Hairstyles For Wavy Hair 2010

Summer Hairstyles For Wavy Hair 2010

Wavy hair is beautiful and there are many women who have straight hair who are desperately trying to find ways to achieve the right wavy look. However, if you have naturally wavy hair, then you know that it can be nearly impossible to find the perfect hairstyle. It’s hard to find a good haircut that is versatile as well as easy to take care of when you have wavy hair. One reason for this is that naturally wavy hair is thicker than most other hair types.

Layers are one of the best things you can do when you have naturally wavy hair. Layers will help you lessen the weight of your hair, while making it much easier to manage. Layers are excellent ways to add more color to your hair, since you can highlight certain layers only, or even add streaks of bright colors if you want. Layers are also easily worn short or long. Another good cut for wavy hair is a razor cut. This adds some nice texture to wavy hair, and is perfect if you’re looking for a short style, such as a bob.

Flexible styles are key when you have wavy hair, so that you can easily dress your hair up or down depending on the occasion. For this purpose, blunt cuts are very popular. These cuts have straight bangs and the sides of the hair are all evenly cut. Another great way to show off your waves while still being easy to manage are updos and half updos – keep the hair straight in some sections to really make a style statement.

2010 is all about being yourself, and nothing is more you than your hair. This year, feel free to break away from the everyday and try something totally new. Long hair is very much in style for 2010.

This is easy to do – blot your hair after you wash it. Remove the blow dryer nozzle and then sweep your hair from side to side using your fingers while you blow dry, and when it’s almost dry, reattach the nozzle. Work in three in sections and pull them to the side with a paddle brush. To keep the hair tight, use your thumb on the bristles. Now just run your dryer up and down each section until it is dry – this gives you a beautiful look fit for a queen!
Best Hairstyles For 2010

Yes, the bun is still around in 2010, but this year it’s made younger and much sexier. If you’re hair is naturally wavy, just let it air dry, but if it isn’t, use a large curling iron and make loose waves.
Best Hairstyles For 2010

Gather your hair at the nape of your neck (let it be loose) and twist it once, just to that the bun drapes low. Use bobby pins wherever you need them to make the bun stay in place. Don’t try to be perfect – this look is all about comfort and beauty. It’s a great look for a casual date, or just to keep your hair out of your face while you look pretty.
Best Hairstyles For 2010

For those of you with naturally wavy hair, rest assured many people are jealous of you. Waves are beautiful, and very popular in 2010. No matter your hair’s length, waves look great. To get waves, use your hands and spread mousse all over your hair while it’s still damp. Blow dry it using a round brush, then roll big sections up in a 1-inch curling iron. You can also use hot curlers if you want. Make sure that you leave the ends out! When you’re done, break up the curls with your fingers so that your hair has lots of volume.

Popular Hairstyles This Summer 2010

Popular Hairstyles This Summer 2010
Some things are always going to be in style, like chocolate, Sean Connery, reality TV, and owning a cat. And some hairstyles are universal. Curls, short, long, layers – there are many to chose from. But surprisingly, one of the most popular trends for this summer
2010 is medium hair length.
Medium Wavy Hairdo For Summer 2010

Long hair take a back seat, because this year women want their hair to be just right. Medium hair offers versatility long hair doesn’t. It’s not quite as hard to maintain and doesn’t take as long to style, nor is it stuck in one particular style like short hair is. Anything can be done to medium hair and it can be worn in any style. Medium straight hair is often portrayed as laying flat on the face, framing and giving the eyes a dramatic curtain to look through. And believe it or not, curls actually look better on medium hair, and last longer. Because of the length, it is less likely that the curls will fall out, and can even hold up for as much as two weeks or more. If your hair is thin, a medium length would be a good fit for you. Long, thin hair often demands thickening through extensions or otherwise, but medium thin hair can be worn as is, straight, without having much to worry about or fuss over. If your hair is thick, a short length might come out much too poodle-like, but a medium length will give your hair just the room it needs to behave the way you want it to.
