stylist says: bored? re-vamp your look

nightlife aside...im here to shed light on the most recent trends in hair design this year/season.

as you may have noticed we have taken quite a crazy loop in fashion and hair design...you might just say the 80's are calling! many styles being edgy, punk, or just plain london influenced....so they say edgy beauty is back.

this year/season you are seeing more short, textured looks with striking color..the shorter you go, the blonder you can be (hence victoria beckham). or you can take the exotic vixen look with a midnight black or dark blood red paired with a great disconnected layered haircut or even put a wild spin on the old bob or shoulder length cut with some choppy angles or artistically carved bangs.

and dont forget to add your own personal splash of color to liven up what you already have...trust me a slice of bright pink, purple, and blue..yes blue can be fierce with any color and it will let your personality shine through!

now for all of you more conservative folks out there supermodel hair is now not the only style people are finding sexy, you can still pull it off and be hip.

trade in your mousy brown for a richer deep brown perhaps with some red or be daring and go for mysterious black, you could even add some form of hi-light..with all the updated hi-lighting techniques there is sure to be one hat will be well suited for you..and remember dont skimp on the layers or at least be somewhat daring and add some rock star angles or fringe to lift and hi-light your face.

and p.s. take care of your hair with a color shampoo or one that will deliver extra moisture with these hot summer days ahead..and dont forget your thermal heat protectant gloss or mousse, whatever suits you and your new do.

with that said i hope it inspires you to get out there and try a new look! for now im going to enjoy my wine and dinner and start figuring out plans for this week!
