Short Hair Styles


Some of the top hair style trends for 2010 have been the sleek yet easier to manage, trendier cuts. We just need to have a look at the top 5 types of hair styles that will dominated the center stage in 2010.

They have been the surprise bob which has been influenced by a lot of celebrities. Celebrities from the entertainment field have been creating stirs among people’s very own choices. These tend to make the modes of choices that have created different forms of versions for unique styles to be adopted, according to clothing as well as forms of specific styles that one likes to adopt.

There have been modifications in the forms of bob but the most common bob shared was the one inspired by Victoria Beckham. This was also sported by the likes of Katie Cruise, Nicole Richie and many other pop stars as well as younger movie stars. Whether one is blond, brunette or black it was possible to bring in the style in any form one wished. The style is audaciously chic and classy with some interesting bangs to bring in more of an edge to the whole look. Fringes with some bobs also went very well with some girls. Girls with round faces were particularly fond of fringes as that made them look sleeker. Hairstyles that are popular undergo changes with popular trends and fashion but some celebrities keep sporting the same style for eons over.


The soft bob has been the second kind of option as opposed to the sleeker and sharper Beckham or Rihanna bob.
Rounded or well structured and even square faces could carry this very well. There are definite styles that rock icons carry better. Sharp cheekbones often contrast with the best looking bob and this style is preferred by girls of all different sorts of profession. Soft bobs still fit any kind of face as opposed to the sharper bob. There is also the chance of keeping it looking a bit unkept in terms of styling it. So you don’t have to spend a lot of time keeping up to maintain it. Eye shadows as well as glitter eye liners do very well with this type of looks. This kind of brings the late 60s and early 70s retro look.

Extensions of multiple colors in short hair styles also rock. If you are particularly lean and tall this look gets carried off really well.
Young people can carry of any color they wish considering the kind of clothes they wear. There are definitely very interesting ways through which the multiple extensions can be worn in the most versatile ways. You don’t need an occasion to feel and be festive with such myriad options that one can style with. Long necks and oval faces can carry such short hairstyle trends really well. Short hair styles of different forms are really fun things to carry about when one is looking forward to experiment with a youthful candor in one’s appearance. There is no point keeping up with any celebrity look unless the particular style appeals to you on a personal level. There are certainly ways one can experience best of fashion with such colorful versatility.


Short and spunky hair styles like that of Sharon Stone can be really cutting edge cool if you have the right shape to sport it.
Watch out for the similar kind of trend in brunette Grace Park. This is not very easy to maintain for you would have to run to the salon to maintain the right order. You would also have to use mousse and hair spray in order to bring in the look placed in the right order. If you have a long neck it does help indeed.

If you are again moving in for a bolder step then it is time to take a clue from Kristen Stewart.
She recently chopped her long black hair to something that looks incredibly posh, smart and emo. There are all sorts of inspirations to take from her changing hairstyles. But this one is incredibly attractive. Such a short, asymmetrical cut has been one of the most incredible cuts that one could covet in a short hair style.

Long or short? Which to choose? When determining how to choose the right length haircut, there are several factors to keep in mind, including lifestyle, profession, how much time you wish to spend styling, and if you’d like a conservative or trendy look. Let’s talk with Brian about hair length and which is appropriate for you.


Short haircuts are generally appropriate for most men
, but are especially well suited to men who lead active lifestyles, athletes, those who work outside, or those who want a style with minimal maintenance. Shorter haircuts are almost always the best option for men who are balding or thinning. Most short styles require very little styling, but will require more frequent haircuts to maintain a neat appearance. Extremely short styles may be a bit too aggressive for professional environments.

A medium length haircut is appropriate for most any situation
, especially guys who work in a professional office environment. The advantage to a medium length cut is that it can be incredible versatile — comb it conservatively for the office, or add some styling product and mess it up for a night on the town. A medium length style will require a bit more maintenance in the morning, but fewer trips to Brian the barber.

A longer hairstyle is most suited for guys in creative fields or for those who have a bit more time to spend on hair care. Long hair often does not work well for men in professional office environments or for men who are balding and will require more time for styling and care each date. Styling options can be somewhat limited for long hair as well. Longer styles require much less frequent trips to the salon.

Brian is a  big stickler for cleanliness. On your next visit, look around and observe how sanitary the shop is. Was the floor swept before you sat down? Did your hair stylist use a clean comb (as opposed to one already laying on the counter)? Are the operator’s clippers or shears free of other client’s hair? Did your barber or stylist place a neck strip or clean towel around you neck before putting the cape on you? Did your barber remove the straight razor from a sanitizer rather than using one already laying on the counter? These are a few basic sanitary issues that can clue you in to how well your shop and haircutter are following sanitary regulations. Barbershops and salons can spread diseases and infections such as ringworm, hepatitis, lice, and impetigo (just to name a few) by using improperly sanitized combs, brushes, clippers, and razors. If your answer was “no” to any or all of these questions, fire your barber or stylist.

Sloppy Work
Next time you leave your barber or stylist, when you get home take a good look at the work. Stand in front of your bathroom mirror with a hand mirror and check out the cut. Is the haircut free of visible lines? Are the sideburns and neckline even? Is the outlining clean and crisp? Is everything laying as it should (especially around the crown)? These are all things to look for. If your answer was “no” to any or all of these questions, fire your barber or stylist.

images6

Lack of Interest
When was the last time your barber or stylist suggested a new style or told you about a new product? Does the person cutting your hair seem more interested in talking about his latest drama than he is in listening to you? It is a haircutter’s job to listen to you and recommend options haircuts and products that will help you get the most out of your hair and keep you looking your best. Not doing so is just bad service. So, if you are stuck in a rut (at least as far as your hair is concerned), it may be time to fire your barber or stylist.

Many of us get stuck going to the same person cut after cut because it’s comfortable and we’re hesitant to try someone new. Sometimes it’s easier to stick to the devil we know than the saint we don’t. Doing so may result in us not always looking our best, so if your barber or stylist is guilty of any of the above offenses, take a leap of faith and try someone new. You may be glad you did!

Curly Hair Styles

Curly Hair Style

We all know that curly hair needs more care and devotion to keep them soft and healthy. They usually tend to get rough and dry. To maintain curly hair well is a great reward for one can bring out the best of sexy, curly hair styles to suit any occasion. When these are maintained well, nourished and well nurtured they do bring us the opportunity to bring the most out of elegant, sassy as well as incredibly beautiful hair styles by Brian.

People who are not gifted with natural curls would have to curl them with irons or curlers. Whether they are temporary as a longer staying permanent hair treatment, they would need to be taken care well enough. Avocado and mayonnaise or honey packs are some of the ideal hair packs that feed the hair shafts for hair kinds that are kinky or curly. Warm oil therapy and massages are really important. They can be done with a single type of oil or a mixture of different oils.

For mixtures it is better to mix oils that are bit on the heavier side like jojoba oil, coconut oil, almond oil or full bodied olive oils in order to get good results. Warming the oil for a few seconds is important. No body is looking for hot oil, just something slightly warmed to aid greater absorption. Curly hair can be sported in many different ways and styles. There can be different forms of curly hair in the form of medium curls, light curls, long curls, tighter curls, extreme curls or kinky curls, wavy curls and even the very specialized or stylized wedding curls or prom style curls.

One can test any hair style virtually just placing one’s photograph against a particular style in order to test the style. Different styles will set very differently with different face cuts. It is also important to choose a style that sets well with one’s California lifestyle. If your hair style requires investing a lot of time and you cannot give that then you would not get the desired effect. For that purpose choose something that requires lesser investment of time. Even with curly hair one can achieve that by carefully sifting through the differing ranges of hairstyles by Brian now available. The right hair cut for you will really make for the best kind of style that is meant for you.

The structure of curly hair is very different from straight hair. So one really has to know what kind of process should be invested in maintaining it as well taking care of it. however the good part of it all naturally curly hair is usually thicker and these types of hair can be permed and styled in different ways which one cannot usually do to straight hair types. Since curly hair really has more strength they can endure a lot as long as you nourish them and not let them stay dry. Among other hair types curly hair types are the forgiving type that can mold into varied kinds of styles. They can be styled with beautiful, breath-taking as well as interesting styles as long as there is a good hair care regimen with Brian backing it up.

One of the best ways to maintain curly hair is by investing a great brush. Before sleeping if one gets to brush the hair well, the natural oil glands of the scalp will stimulate circulation and make the hair shine with beauty and radiance. Wide toothed and natural combs are the best to separate the tangles of curly hair as well as maintain it well. Even brushing through your fingers can do great things for curly hair that you would be surprised to see the results of. There are lots of styling products available for curly hair but for regular hair care, natural or homemade or organic natural hair care products are the most useful.

These protect the natural oil balance of the hair as well as bring bounce and shine of true health. Too much of styling products are never good but really high quality, organic ones, are good when important. In certain kind of style maintenance we do require styling products. For getting head turning and breath taking results with your curly hair styles, it is important that they are well tended and trimmed every few weeks. The ends of curly hair tend to dry up giving frizz. Cutting off split ends as well as trimming the rough edges would be really great for keeping the hair at prime.

Going to and consulting with Brian is also important in terms of maintaining curly hair. A cut that flatters your particular facial cut is something that  Brian would be able to discern. You might fall in love with a particular style seen on a magazine model but whether or not that would comply to your own structure, can be honestly opined by Brian. So finding a great stylist in your area is important. It is equally important to be able to honestly discuss about what looks you would like in your hair and how you can go about getting or maintain your hair with them. Again all stylists cannot handle curly hair, so make your appointment with Brian regarding your hair style needs.
