Special Hairstyles for the Holiday Season 2011

As the holiday season approaches you may decide you want to get a special hairstyle to make you look even prettier or more elegant. For Christmas you might chose something very festive. An up swept hairstyle entwined with red and green ribbons would look very pretty. Or try a sleek page boy with curled under bangs with a very fancy glittery headband. Curls make a nice addition especially if they tumble down the back or around the nape of the neck. You just need something a little bit special to make a big hairstyle change for the holidays.

This might translate into a completely new look like a radical hair cut or a completely different hair color. If you have straight hair you might get a perm to make your hair full of curls and then have some highlights added also. This may take two visits so that the color doesn’t affect the perm. Or you might get a completely new color like bright red with some darker highlights. Or even red hair color with some green highlights for the Christmas season. No matter what you try you can always get it cut and restyled after the holidays. For New Years eve you may want to have your hair stylist give you a new look. If you have longer hair you might get some curl added. If you have short hair you might get a more layered cut which will give your hair some volume. A short hairstyle can look really foxy.

Hair Pieces and Wigs as Hairstyles

Hair Pieces and Wigs as Hairstyles

Sometimes you just want to have different hair. There are a lot of places where you can buy a wig. The wig can be in pink or blue for a punk look. It is just temporary so you don’t have to make any drastic decisions about your hair style.

Another way to change your hairstyle, your personal style and your whole look is to add hair pieces like hair extensions or pony tails. Synthetic hair is made so much better than it used to be made and very often it looks authentic. But a hair piece could give you tendrils or a long sheaf of hair. You can get hair pieces eighteen inches long or much longer. You can change your style instantly. Hair extensions are also available in a clip on style. You can go mod or long without a lot of trouble.

Coupled with a hat, hair pieces can make an instant change for a few short hours. Just for as long as you are wearing the hat. Hair pieces come with Velcro so it can be attached to something else. You can also attach a hair piece to a scarf. These are not permanent changes and you could re-style several times a day if you want.

This is also a great way to let over permned or sun bleached hair grow out and recover. Tuck that long hair into a short bobbed wig for an instant personality change. It’s a fun way for a day.

The Right Hairstyle for a Job Interview

The Right Hairstyle for a Job Interview

You are going on a job interview and you want to look your best. You may also have to interview with more than one person, besides personnel. And naturally you are very nervous. What hair style should you consider? The hair style greatly depends on the type of job or work you are interviewing for. If you are interviewing at a night club waitress position you want to blend with the other employees and also have a hair style that is easy to control and keep in place.

If you are interviewing for an office position, you will want a hair style that looks professional and well cut and cared for. First impressions really do count. You take care with your outfit and shoes so don’t forget the hair style. And make sure your hair is clean and neat. If it’s long, pull it back into a style that complements your face and looks balanced with your outfit. If short, then make sure it is neatly in place.

If you are interviewing for an outdoor position such as with the forest service or a construction company, then you want a practical hair style or maybe just a pony tail or braid, or something very short and easy to care for. You really don’t want anything elaborate as you may be wearing a hard hat all day.

You really need to coordinate your hair style with the office or job environment you are interviewing with. Perhaps check out current employees hairstyles.

Perm Hairstyle, Yes or No

Perm Hairstyle, Yes or No

In the seventies, when you had your hair permed it meant getting tiny tight curls or tight waves. And the permanent wave process, quite frankly stunk. Another vision of a permanent wave or a perm was the tightly waved blue hair of a grandmother. If you went through the process once, you probably didn’t try it a second time, unless you liked being a blue haired grandmother.
Well perms have changed a lot since the seventies. First of all they don’t smell as bad. They still have an odor but it’s not as bad as it used to be because chemicals have changed in the process. Second an experienced stylist can control the type of perm you get. Also there are different types of perms available today.

Some of the different perms available today are the root lift which is a perm solution only added to the roots of the hair. This will lift the roots and add some body and lift to the hair style. You can get a spot perm where maybe only the ends of the hair are permed leaving you with light curls at the tips. A perm may be used to take the curl out of hair or a kind of reverse perm to loosen the curls. A perm has two steps, the first one breaks down the hair and the second one that neutralizes the hair. Expect to spend about 2 plus hours for the process and for it to last two plus months.

To Be a Blonde or a Redhead with a Great Hairstyle

To Be a Blonde or a Redhead with a Great Hairstyle

When you decide to get your hair colored you then need to decide what color you would like it to be. There are a lot of ways to get a different hair color these days. Some simply are put on then you sit under a dryer for it to do its color work. This type of color will not last as long as the kind that is applied after the hair has been stripped of most or all of its color. That process takes longer. The faster process of almost instant color will only attach itself to the follicle it will not actually enter it. The color may only last a few washings.
Red or Blonde

The more permanent process is a two-step process where they actually strip the hair of its color then add color back to it. This process will fade over time but it will not disappear until you basically have it re-colored or cut. Then to the final color there is a super color which is supposed to add a different color to the new color. This process does not always work out well.
If you just want to add some fun kicky color for a short while, then go for the temporary hair color. If you want glorious red hair or copper hair or blond hair then go for the two step process.
When you do decide to take this step, plan to have some fun with the new look that will be the newest lovely you.
