Celebrity long hairstyles 2010

Celebrity long hairstyles are not as difficult to achieve as you think them to be. In fact with a little bit of effort and imagination on your part you can have these celebrity hairstyles right from the cool confines of your home. Whether it is the latest Jennifer Aniston style that you are looking for or the hairstyle of Paris Hilton that you need to copy, you can create them and that too even without a personal hairstylist.

You can in fact duplicate most of the celebrity hairstyles by using a quality hair straightening iron. Using a bit of imagination is perhaps the secret to a good hairstyle. The good old hit and trial method would work in the case of hairstyles too. You should constantly try different styles. Even a seemingly small alteration such as parting your hair from left to right can have a dramatic effect on how you look.

The shape of your face will dictate your hairstyle to a very large extent. For instance those with heart shaped faces will always look good with chin length hair or any type of long hairstyle for that matter. In fact most of the celebrity hairstyles look good since a lot of thought has gone behind them. The personal stylists of celebrities often try out different styles based on the facial features of these celebrities before arriving at a particular hairstyle. Whether it is Jennifer Lopez or Brad Pitt, or for that matter any celebrity, they look good in their respective hairstyles because the particular style suits their face.

Latest African American Hairstyles

It is almost an incontestable fact that African Americans are among the most artistically inclined societies in the world; and it is therefore no wonder that their there is such a great variety of African American hairstyles - seeing that a 'hairstyle' is first and foremost a work of art. Another possible explanation as to why there are so many African-American hairstyles has to be the fact that there are so many 'sub-cultures' within the African American society, with almost each of these sub-cultures having a unique hairstyle for identification purposes among its members, and typically with each sub-cultures hairstyle being one of the features that add up to the member's 'sense of belonging' in the group.

Latest Punk Hairstyles 2010

Punk hairstyles are in the category of hairstyles that are simply hard to ignore. Wear a punk hairstyle, and you can be sure that you will leave heads turning everywhere you go. Of course, while there are many similar hairstyles, hard to notice hairstyles, as it were, what sets hairstyles apart is the fact that they tend to be conspicuous in a nice way (as they mostly tend to be decently neat), so that the people 'noticing' the wearer 'notice him or her for all the right reasons.' Obviously, this is in great contrast to many 'head turning' aka attention-grabbing hairstyles, which tend to convey the wearer as a bit too frivolous. Even for the most conservative folks, punk hairstyles tend to at least ace the decent test.

The roots of punk hairstyle can be traced to a few decades back, with the emergence of the punk sub-culture that rocked the world greatly about two to three decades ago. The punk sub culture was of course not just about the punk hairstyle, as it came complete with it is own music (punk music, if you remember), and even its mannerisms that subscribers to it adhered to according to some unwritten code.

Perhaps in keeping with the 'law of cycles,' we are seeing a rising resurgence of interest in hairstyles, with many youths who surely could not have been there at the height of the punk subculture, donning them proudly. Resurgence aside, of course, there are older folks (or rather middle aged folks, to use the right term) who have always kept their punk hairstyles since their heyday to this day. For long, such folks have been treated as a bit 'eccentric' for having gotten 'stuck in a time warp' but with the renewed resurgence of the punk hairstyles, we might find people forming kinder opinions on them.

Latest Wedding Hairstyles 2010

There is nothing sweeter and more radiant than a bride walking down the aisle with flowers in her hair. The wearing of flowers is quite popular with many brides. Many opt for having fresh flowers to wear on their big day. You too can do this for your wedding.

First of all decide what type of flowers that you would like to use. You can choose from a single bold bloom or a spray of delicate little flowers. If you have an idea of what your wedding hairstyle will be, this would make it easier to decide.

The main rule is that if you have a very simple up do, or a no-fuss hairstyle, then a single big flower would look the best. For this you can choose strong single blooms like the orchid or the lily. Among popular choices are the cymbidium orchid, and the Asiatic lily.

Should your wedding hairstyle be something more intricate then you should look for smaller more delicate flowers. Some clusters of asters or baby's breath would look really magnificent in a chignon. You can also try stephanotis.

When choosing flowers for your wedding hairstyle, you should try to look for flowers that are in season. This will make it cheaper and easier to get. Do take note that there are some flowers that you shouldn't use, as shouldn't be near your skin. Get help and pointers from your florist.

A Guide To Balding Men's Hairstyles
This strategy only spells disaster even in the slightest of breezes and is to be avoided at all costs.

But assuming you already know this, what are the other do's and don'ts to balding men's hairstyles?

The first common mistake is combing the hair straight back. This may cover bald spots, but it only exposes the forehead and draws attention to the receding hairline.

The second is growing your hair longer at the back to make up for what's lacking on top. This unbalances the head and draws even more attention to the scalp and the baldness.

Younger men with thinning hair might be tempted to use gel... but this isn't recommended. Gel clumps your hair together and reveals the scalp.

Likewise, growing your hair long in an attempt to cover up actually causes hair to separate and show more scalp.

So, what are the do's? Get more natural looking fluff to your hair by using mousses and conditioners. Grow your remaining hair by a few inches, get it layered and brush it forward to break up the receding hairline.

If your hairline isn't receding too badly, but the top of your head is thinning, you can get away with keeping the front long and combing your hair straight back to cover the bald spot.

Eventually however, your bald spot will expand. The ultimate balding men's hairstyle when faced with a shiny bald dome, is to go the whole hog and shave it off or at least a very close trim.

You'll probably be amazed at people's reactions and the compliments you'll get - the shaved look is a totally acceptable balding hairstyle these days. Start with electric clippers like you find in the barbers. After you've clipped the heavy stuff, lather up with shaving gel. This gives you a closer, smoother shave than shaving cream.

Then using a razor, start at the top and shave down with the grain taking care at the back - it's recommended to watch what you're doing with a small mirror.

Shaving your head only takes a few minutes and you don't need to do it every day (two to three times a week is fine).

Taking care of your new shaved head is much like taking care of your face. Wash regularly with moisturizing soap, rather than a harsh deodorant soap that can dry out the skin on your head. Also use a good quality moisturizer after every wash - cheaper moisturizers will just clog up your pores. For the summer, find a moisturizer with a sun protection factor of at least 15 to avoid sunburn on your head. And you'll need a warm hat in winter to maintain your body heat.
