People are always obsessed with their hair or lack there of. This is why people who cut hair professionally have such rich success. At the same time, products and procedures that promise to bring hair back also enjoy great success. There are almost as many styles of hair do’s as there are people. Knowing what the current trends are can help a person remain relevant and up to date. This helps to provide a person with confidence since they then know that their hair looks good. This also helps to add the finishing touches to a person’s appearance, bringing everything together.
Women: Ladies, you do not neglect your time picking out a wardrobe and applying make-up, please do not neglect your hair any longer. The current trends include that long hair with a sleek shine to it. This is not accomplished by tying the whole mess into a sloppy pony tail as you rush out the door. Instead, consider putting a texturing cream in your hair and leaving it down. This creates a more sultry appearance that is appropriate for both the work environment and the night life.
Not everyone can wear long hair. For those who prefer the medium length styles, remember that retro is still in. Stick to classic styles. The medium length hair can be made more daring by adding splashes of color, such as red highlights. The tussled look for medium length hair is not a good idea because it simply looks not brushed, rather than sultry or daring.
Short hair can also be very stylish. Using the texturing creams and a gel, you can create a great and fashionable spiky style. The sleek look is also in for the short hair, with bobs being a big hit. If highlighting short hair, keep the highlights blocky and limited. If the highlights are all over, the short hair will make it look as though your hair is that color rather than being highlighted with another color as the base.
Men: You are not off the hook. If you are going to shave you head, please leave a little bit of hair on top. The clean shaven head only looks good on a few people. Instead consider a little bit of hair on your head. Fades are all the rage, with longer hair on top and shorter hair on the back and sides of the head. This can be played down for work by leaving it without any product and then made sexy with a little bit of gel, spiking the hair on top. Long hair is not necessarily a good idea for guys and the mullet is so out. Please, either long or short, not both. You cannot have work in front and party in the back.
Over the years, I have greatly played around with my hair and have had so many different hair styles that I would be—in all honesty—unable to recall how many ones that I have sported on my noggin. Most recently, I had a longer hair style that had cool blue streaks that were on the front bangs. However, despite trying every and any hair dyes out there, even hair stains, I found that quite often the blue dye would bleed whenever I sweated and get all over the place; not to mention getting on pillows, sheets, towels, clothing…you name it.
First off you are probably wondering just what in the heck that ‘No Poo’ really means. It is actually a method of hair care that comes from author and cosmetologist, Lorraine Massey’s book, which is entitled, “Curly Girl.” The ‘No Poo’ aspect is one that she discusses in her book which means that people who have curly hair or hair that is overly frizzy (raise your hands if you do, because I have longer, wavy hair) can easily avoid many hair nightmare dilemmas by ceasing using shampoo, or by following her ‘No Poo’ philosophy.
