FALL-WINTER 2008-2009 haircut TRENDS

Here are the main haircut trends os this season Winter 2008-2009 seen at Donna Karan, Rachel Roy, Zac Posen, Viktor & Rolf , Phillip Lim, Yves Saint Laurent and Oscar de la Renta.

Trend: Deep Side Part:
While there was no shortage of center parts on the fall runways, it was the side-swept version, artfully accentuated with romantic and soft curls and flapper-girl styles that topped our tress list. And the deeper, the better: A side part minimizes a large forehead, plays up pretty eyes, and gives rounder faces the illusion of an oval shape. Which direction you swing toward, however, is entirely up to you.

Trend: Woven Braids:
Whether piled high or loose and low, braids caused quite a commotion on the autumn catwalk. Lead stylist André Rodman at Frédéric Fekkai SoHo got inspiration from the Native American theme. Giving the traditional braid a modern twist, he incorporated a hand-woven fishtail technique: Start by spritzing dry shampoo or hairspray all over to give workable texture. Then pull hair back and divide into two sections at the nape of the neck. Take a small section of hair from each side, crisscross them over the gathered strands, and add to the opposite side. Continue loosely braiding, then secure with an elastic.

Trend: Slicked-Back Strands:
There is no hiding behind your hair with this look! But while this pulled-back style puts your face in the spotlight, Palau promises it is totally wearable. To get this look at home, Palau suggests using “loads of gloss” to create a “patent leather texture.” Gel and hairspray could not hurt either!

Trend: Twisted Tresses:
Variations of the French twist ruled the fall runways. To achieve the side-swept twist created by Aveda stylists at 3.1 Phillip Lim, blow-dry hair straight, then part on the side. Take a lock of hair and, starting from behind the right ear, create a French braid running left to right (this will serve as an anchor for your twist). Fasten braid with an elastic behind the left ear. Slightly twist the hair and sweep it over to the left side of the head, securing in place with bobby pins along the braided base.

Trend: Choppy Layers:
Of course YSL’s mod mushroom cut might be too severe for your au naturel sensibility, but there is something to be said for chunky locks! “Choppy layers enhance bone structure, especially cheekbones,” says Guido Palau, who styled hair at Ralph Lauren. After applying a thickening lotion to damp hair, he blow-dried sections using a paddle brush and finished with a flat iron, creating “an even texture with absolutely no frizz.”

"Beat up" your hair with a brush from the roots to the points of your hair. Backcomb one lock and spray it with a modelling spray. Then the next lock. Make the maximum volume on the bottom part of your head. Then smooth it a little but do not comb completely. However points of your hair should be combed so that they look tidily. Fix the result with a hair spray.

Four The Sexiest and Most Fashionable Summer 2008 haircuts

Breezy Tress

French tress are so modern this summer. The new way to wear them is not perfect and exact — it is more random. So do not bother starting the tress at your forehead; begin farther back, at your crown. That way, the style is loose enough for some wisps to fall out when you are outside running around. French tress by gradually weaving in pieces until you reach the nape of the neck, then finish off the tail with a tighter weave to create a sexy contrast with the softer top. Besides, when you undo the braids you will have perfectly tousled waves.

Pumped-Up Ponytail Hair-do

This is essentially your standard go-to ponytail but with a lot more stand. Work a sculpting foam into moisture hair, and dry with towel to build messy texture and volume. Gather everything up, and fasten it right above eye level (a good thing to avoid positioning it too high). Back-comb the tail multiple times until you get the exact level of tousled body you want. Finish with a soft gel through the ends for shine and separation. It is so confident and flirty.

Shoulder-Baring Bun

Go straight from the beach to umbrella drinks with this hair-do. The trick is to coil strands in different directions to make a thick knotty bump. Gather hair into a low tail, and divide it into two parts. Wrap one part around clockwise and bobby pin in place (making a small bun). Wrap the second part around the initial bun, twisting hair counterclockwise, and secure the same way. Do not worry if pieces slip out. The more effortless it seems, the better.

Half-Up Hot Hair-do

When the weather and wind makes your hair wavier, it is sexy just to wear it that way around your shoulders. But to keep strands from getting in your face, pull back a small section between your temples. Tease those strands first to create some height, smooth over with a brush, and then secure everything loosely with a clip at the base of your crown. This look makes your eyes and cheekbones stand out. Add movement to the rest of your mane by lightly misting hair with a sea-salt spray and scrunching the ends.

This year between June 1-3 the global spotlights will once again focus on the City of London, the hairstyling capital of the world. At least 200 Hungarian top hairstylists and salon owners will be present at this year's Salon International, also known as the world’s top hairdressing and hairstyling exhibitions, hosted at Docklands in London.

One of Hungary’s most acclaimed hairstylists Tamas Zsidro said that he has been visiting the London scene since 1983. “London is tops when it comes to hair fashion,” he said, explaining that the London style is technically and innovation-wise the best in the world. “The French and Italians are lagging behind because their haircuts are a bit more robust and heavy,” he added.

Really unbelievable hair-dos showed us hair-do masters on the exhibition that was held a week ago. Who said hair-do can't be a masterpiece?
