Celebrity haircuts




THE SHORT PIXIE

This haircut gives your face full focus. It also makes you look and feel younger. But this haircut is only suitable for chun chics. If you think you make the cut, gof or it. To maintain this haircut, trim it monthly. Alyssa Milano is very sexy with that haircut.







THE NATURAL AFRO

The natural afro hair suits black women most of all. Actually, this hair is suitable for the very busy. Why? Cause maintenance is low. The natural afro suits Halle Berry very much.








THE LONG AND SHORT

This hairdo is all about movement. The front can be tucked behind ears or left by the sides. If you’ve got a wide roundish face and a big mouth size, you’ll look gorgeous. It brings about a shine and make heads turn when you turn around. Cameron Diaz knows everything about beauty.





BLUNT BOB

A lot of models wear this hair. It's very style and modern. This will certainly have you stand out among the crowd.









SHORT SHAG

If your hair is very thick or very fine, don’t do this. If you are a ladylike person, this haircut is for you. It will bring about a well mannered vibe.










CURLY BOB

This style brings a sense of vintage classics. When I see a girl in this, I feel she’s gotta be fun to be with :) .












ROMANTIC BOB

Ahh… very suitable for going out on a date. You’ll look snice. If you have dimples, ~fuh, you’ll rock the atmosphere that surrounds you.











ANGLED BOB

If you want to make your face look narrow and long, this is it. Your hair will have to be good and straight. I like to watch the rustling motion of the hair when she walks.









PANELING

The twist of layers gives your hair more volume. You’ll look sweetier if you have round eyes.











MEDIUM SHAG

The layers will give your face exact form. Having some hair by the front of the eyes gives out a sense of mystery and attraction. Men love that much.











WAVY SHAG

This is for those who wanna look messy. You will look like Jennifer Aniston. Rugged yet massive.













LONG SHAG

Well, this is pretty common among females. Why? Cause you’ll look refined.













LONG WITH BANGS

This is good for long faces. It gives more focus to your beautiful eyes and cheeks.













LONG CURLS

Incredibly sexy. But, the price to pay lies in the difficulty of maintaining it.












LONG STRAIGHT

Good for everyone. Goes well with any dressing and occasion. Like teenage Avril Lavigne.












LONG LAYERS

Makes you look versatile and laid back. I feel that ladies in this type of haircut style have amusing characters.

Hairpieces:Need some help with your hair?

Do you want happening hair?
Based on the trends identified by Trend Union, a Paris-based trend agency, Wella has put together four major themes for its annual trends forecast.Being Naïve embraces the rediscovery of spontaneity and optimism. This translates into playful haircuts that include plaits, intricate knots and cute curls.Being Rebellious means having confidence to break with tradition. It embraces free thinking and sets aside all differences of gender, race and age. This translates into hair that is wild and untamed. Punk-like crests and bold colour define strong contrasts.Being In Hairpieces:Need some help with your hair?Love is the longing for intimacy and tenderness. Seductive curls fall loosely onto the neck and shoulders or are tied into flamboyant knots.The last trend, Being Constructive, concentrates on the essential and the quest for perfection. Hair is stylishly functional and the quality is exceptional. Styles are timeless and simple, and feature clear contours, precisely defined partings and understated styling.Keeping your hair colour has never been easier. Kérastase recently launched a range of products for women who demand lasting radiance from their hair colour. Reflections promises radiant, even and long-lasting colour by increasing the mirror-like reflections from the hair fibre. The micropolymer technology in Radiance allows hair to reflect light more effectively, and the ionic formulation targets damaged areas, resulting in brighter, shinier hair. Products range in price from R155,95 to R235,95;
Bad hair
-A bad hair day can really get you down. But why is it that on some days your hair falls into place with no effort whatsoever and on other days you wake up to hair that clearly has a mind of its own?
-Product build-up can cause hair that usually has body to lie as flat as a pancake. A clarifying shampoo will remove excess build-up and your hair should regain its natural bounce.
-Monthly hormonal changes can also stimulate the oil glands to secrete more oil, resulting in hair that lacks body.
-As for waking up with an unmanageable cowlick, remember that the shape of a curl close to the head such as a cowlick is determined by the slant of the hair follicle.It won't help to wet the ends and tug on your hair with a hairbrush; you'll have to wet your hair to the root and straighten it from there using heat.

Hairy facts

All you need to know about some of the hair treatments and products that fill many of us with apprehension.Hair that has been straightened with a straightening iron is huge fashion news, and the perm is also said to be back with a bang. Let us help you figure out what to look out for and what might work for you.
Straightening irons:

Hairy facts Why you should think twice Any heat treatment damages your hair. According to make-up artist and hair stylist Carl Isaacs, the biggest problem with buying your own straightening iron is going for a cheap imitation. Good straightening irons, like Ghd (priced between R1 300 and R1 800 at selected salons), controls the heat and prevents the irons from overheating and singeing the hair. Carl says it's also a good idea to apply ghd The Iron Oil to your hair before using the straightening iron. It doesn't contain any silicon (silicone boils at 40°C while a straightening iron can reach 240°C), which is especially important if you use a straightening iron regularly.Why it could work: Carl says a good straightening iron used in conjunction with the appropriate hair products could actually improve the condition of your hair by locking in moisture. It is also the best way to get wavy hair perfectly straight.



Why you should think twice?
The stiff, unnatural curls of the 1980s are enough to make anyone's hair stand on end.Why it could work? According to Paul from Terenzo Hairdressing, the products techniques are used, but the perm lotions are technologically and scientifically more advanced. Whereas the old products were more alkaline, the new ones like Redken Inner Secret – in Paul's view, the best on the market – are acid based and contain amino acids and other ingredients that leave the hair in a better condition than it was before the treatment. With regard to appearance, Paul says that spiral perms are totally out of fashion and aren't done any more. Curls are now soft and loose, and large rollers are used to create this look.Permanent wave treatments are also no longer being used to add volume to hair. Nowadays stylists use cutting techniques and hair products to add volume. Paul recommends permanent wave treatments for people with very curly hair who want a softer curl – a so-called reverse perm – or for those who have a kink in their hair and would like low maintenance waves.He cautions that if your hair has been highlighted or bleached, you should not have a permanent wave treatment.
