One of the most popular Beyonce Knowles hairstyles is the one she had at the New York Cadillac Records premier. This style featured long layers, which were cut in such, a way that the waves were carried through right to the tips. It is perfect for any height and any face shape. If you want to create this style you will need a radial brush, and a curling iron or some hot rollers. Be sure to apply a bit of styling mousse when your hair is damp, to help keep the style in.

Use a larger radial brush to blow-dry your hair. Remember to part your hair into sections and always start at the back. Blow from the top until you reach the ends, where you will blow from the bottom. To get the curls you can use a curling iron or rollers. If you are using hot rollers, remember to arrange the side ones in a vertical pattern. Leave in until the rollers have cooled down. When you are done, apply some smoothing shine and comb through gently to achieve the waves. The key to this Beyonce Knowles hairstyle is to get the waves right. If you follow these steps you can create the style in no time.

Asian Hairstyles in 2010

Asian Hairstyles in 2010

Looking across the many styles that are available today, we have to give credit to the stylists and fashion industry in Japan who have repeatedly given the rest of the world innovative ideas. The Asian styles that are working the best right now have to do with using different length bangs with short hair to offer a wide range of options for different face shapes.

We can see the influences in style in all Asian-made cartoons, video games and movies. Many of the toughest shapes to flatter are round and diamond face shapes which we find many of in the Asian population. This of course is speaking in very broad generalities.

General or not, this year especially we have seen Asian influence on hairstyles in the Emo style. If we look at the wild hairstyles that are being sported by artists like Adam Lambert, you will have a good idea about what the Emo style looks like. His style is all about expressing his emotion and personality. And his stylist does that very well by keeping much of his hair short and keeping his top layers longer. Then it is possible to style his bangs and parts differently for a wide variation of looks without much effort!

More mainstream looks have caught on to this trend as well. Take a look at Mandy Moore or Katie Holmes and you will find the same type of short styles and use of bangs for so many of their new looks!

Long Hairdos, Winter, Summer 2010

Long Hairdos Winter, Summer 2010

When looking for long hairstyles that work for your hair, there isn’t much searching that needs to be done! Online pictures and information has made the search relatively easy!
Look up Jessica Lowndes at the Grammy awards this year for a formal look that creates elegance and grace. With her healthy, brown hair pushed up and back she elongated her oval shaped face. Jessica is lucky because her face has small features that love to be accentuated. She also wore the rest of her hair down her back. This gave her a very flowing, elongated, graceful look that the cameras loved!
Beyonce is no stranger to long hair; and she is versatile in her styles also. She has gone from straightened hair with bangs to wild curly hair on stage! She makes both look extremely sexy. Her secret is that her hair is naturally wavy so the wild, vertical curls she wears on stage are relatively easy for her stylist to create. But the straightened hair takes a lot of heat and relaxer, so she doesn’t do that very often. This is smart because she can keep her hair healthier without the use of many chemicals and heat treatments.
But if you are looking for real versatility, Mandy Moore is the woman to research! Mandy has gone from blonde to brown and from short to long styles with ease. And her square face shape is not an easy one to fit, so there is great hope for all women who are struggling with difficult face shapes of our own!

Best Hairstyles for Heart Faces

Best Hairstyles for Heart Faces

There are so many great hairstyles out there for heart shaped faces! This winter’s styles are leaning towards shorter hair styles, and that is a perfect way to go for your face.

Shorter hairstyles like the chin-length bob will work very well for your heart-shaped face because it adds volume where you need it the most! It accents your high cheekbones and gives your face balance. The short hairstyles that are in style for 2010 are your chance to shine!

Fringe hairstyles that play with the angles and layers of your bangs will also be great for your face. It is easy to use haircuts that are side-parted or bangs that are side swept to give you a sexier look that will still frame your face in flattering ways. Avoid the short cuts that put too much volume at the top of your head or are too slicked back. You don’t want to ruin the visual balance by making your chin look longer and pointier. You will really like the way you look in these shorter styles and heads will turn more when you walk in the room!

The long hair option can also work out for you, but you have to be sure that your stylist cuts it in a way that accents your cheekbones. Those are the highlight of your facial features and you should emphasize them! Cutting some layers into your bangs can draw out your cheekbones and allow you to enjoy a longer cut.

Asian Pixie Cut - Winter, Summer 2010

Asian Pixie Cut - Winter, Summer 2010 Edition

This style was popularized in Asian fashion because it fits many Asian features. Feminine jaw lines, small features, and straight hair are typically needed to pull off this fashion forward look!
However, we have seen many celebrities without any Asian descent pull it off with flair as well! Hale Berry had this cut for a while and she looked ravishing. Alyssa Milano wore a Pixie cut very well as a good witch on Charmed. And Natalie Portman was strikingly beautiful with a Pixie cut of her own shortly after shaving her head in the movie “V for Vendetta.”
Halle Berry Pixie Cut

This style can be cute to wear on a daily basis, and it can also be a glamorous look when worn to formal events. It is something that will express your confidence in that you don’t need to have long hair to appear feminine. And it is easy to wash and wear daily, but you will have to spend some extra time and use some gel or mousse getting it to look right for more formal occasions.
And it appears that some of the celebrities who have made this look popular are now growing their hair out a little more. So if you don’t like to visit the stylist too often, you may not need to go for a few months while you let your style grow out a bit.
That is the real beauty of this cut! It will look good short, and it will look good in the dreaded in-between stages as it grows out as well. Then you can always make the decision to re-trim the look, or grow it out. Either way you go, you can modify your look throughout the year while experimenting with different lengths!

Jennifer Aniston Hair Color Tips For 2010

Jennifer Aniston Hair Color Formula For 2010

Style conscious women all have the same question: How do you achieve the lively long locks Jennifer Aniston look? Here are some of the hair salon secrets that will make you the envy of all your friends. Women with medium-soft brunette hair color are the luckiest, because this is the same base color as Jennifer Aniston. Now all you need to do is add the highlights. Start with a high-lift golden blonde hair color and 40-volume developer, and then alternate with a high-lift natural blonde. It’s most important for your hair stylist to use crème developer so the hair color will be thick to keep the foil in place. For best results the stylist should use half-inch-wide streaks and allow 20 minutes under a hot dryer to process.
Here's an insider secret on Jennifer Aniston's hair color from some of the other clients of her experienced stylist: use the old-fashioned Clairol and Wella in a bottle that you can purchase yourself. The fantastic result is due to technique and timing not in using luxury hair colors.
To accent the hair color with lowlights, use approximately three foils on both sides of the head. One of the best colors is the medium golden brown shade like Wella Color Charm #435 with 20-volume crème developer. This time your stylist should do 3/4-inch streaks, with only one lowlight foil for the fringe bangs. All you need is ten minutes to process the color then shampoo and condition. The finishing touches include glossing and styling to your preference.
