What's hot for hair? Hairstyles change
with the seasons. The trends for Spring & Summer 2007
characterize a variety of styles. To take advantage, get a
haircut that allows you to wear a practical style for
daytime and a more flirty look for the evening hours.
Long Hairstyles
Wavy, textured hair brings a tousled,
feminine look. If your hair is long and thick, this is easy
to achieve because textured and shaped hair allows you more
control with your hair style. Simply wash your hair, add
some mousse and blow dry your hair on low. Use a curling
iron and finger-comb the layers. For piecey chunks, apply
styling wax on the ends to separate.
For a simple, sleek and smooth look,
straight hair can flatter almost anyone, reflecting light
and enhancing shine. If you have natural waves, you don't
need to blow-dry. Simply
use
a flat iron to straighten it out section by section. Set
the style with hair spray and stay away from rain or heavy
humidity.
Short Hair
Want less fuss with a short hairstyle? Ask
your stylist for heavy layers to add dimension, fullness,
and bounce. Boyish, yet feminine, this is the easiest cut to
wash and style. If you prefer more than a basic bob, look
for an asymmetrical cut to update your look and keep you on
the edge.
Ringlets that are too tight look old-fashioned
and Victorian. Keep your short curls loose and natural.
Finger comb and tousle your tresses when slightly wet for a
true romantic look. Face-framing layers will help make a
basic hairstyle more versatile and add much needed movement.
Bangs
Whether your hair is long or short, you'll
need to decide on whether or not to wear bangs. The current
trend is soft, side-swept bangs, exposing only part of your
forehead. To look anything but ordinary, opt for angled
bangs to accentuate your unique style. Whilst bangs require
more frequent maintenance, they're great for covering up a
long forehead, flaws or lines.
Ponytails are back -- with a passion. With
their practicality, getting ready for a casual or formal
event is a snap. Soft waves add sensuality to a basic
ponytail. For any texture of hair, set high or low, what's
classic is now trendy. Try combing your hair back with your
fingers for a slightly imperfect, messed-up hairdo.
Highlights
Sexy, feminine highlights never go out of
style. Spring brings popular multi-tone highlights and
lowlights for several shades of color that adds dimension
and reflects the light. A great haircut combined with
subtle highlights ensure that you will look classy at
special events and in pictures. Trendy and stylish,
this summer promises to bring some of the most exciting
hairstyles we've seen in years. What better time is there to
update your tresses?
