Short pixie haircuts seem to be the trend for the fall and still going strong going into 2011. These are easy to maintain hairstyles favored by many celebrities. But the key to keeping short pixie hairstyles in style is to make sure you have a regular trim. Your hair generally grows at about one half inch every month so that should give you an idea of how often you will need to get a trim. Generally it is recommended that you get a trim every six to eight weeks. Of course celebrities often get their hair trimmed and styled daily and you will probably not be doing that so you have to practice at home so you can keep the hairstyle looking good between trims or cuts.

HEART SHAPED HAIRSTYLES

If you have a heart shaped face, you will want to add length to your locks as a means of making your narrow chin appear a bit wider. Textured cuts are usually the best, as they will add overall volume to your hair. If you have a heart-shaped face, you should generally try to avoid short hairstyles. Additionally, you will want to avoid slicking back your hair, as this can emphasize the upper portion of your face. You don’t want to create a triangular shape with your haircut, as this will make your facial structure appear rounder, rather than elongated.

Generally, the safest hairstyle for an individual with a rounded facial structure includes ones which fall at shoulder length. You can add some layers to your cut, which will help add a little style and body to your overall look. Feel free to add a little height to your hairstyle, but only do so if your hair is long enough to hit your shoulders.

If you really have your heart set on a short hairstyle, there are some options which are better than others when accommodating a heart-shaped face. If you create height at the top of your short hairstyle, you will then balance out your narrowed chin. If your hair is spiked upward, and you don’t have running across your forehead, you will create the illusion of “more face.” Therefore, you will successfully elongate your heart shaped face. You will absolutely want to avoid hairstyles which have bangs and hair flowing downward towards your ears and across your forehead. This will make your face appear wider than it already is.

JAMIE LYNN SPEARS HAIR

The younger sister of Britney Spears, Jamie Lynn is nearly as popular as her sister. Girls who see Brittany as too old to be their role model or fashion icon may look upon Jamie Lynn as their idol. This star is a bit more down to earth than others, and she always looks pretty and stylish. Jamie Lynn has an oval shaped face, so many styles that she wears would look good on heart, oval, or round faces. A bit of adaptation can make her hairstyles suit any woman.

Jamie Lynn Spears

In one of Jamie Lynn’s looks, she wears medium and long layers. The layers are cut through the sides and back which gives her hair lots of bounce and lots of movement. Her hair is parted on the side, with her bangs swept over her forehead. She has a bit of loose curl in her hair, which makes a beautiful frame for her face. This style is excellent for those who have a longer face shape, such as oval or rectangular, because it helps to balance out the whole look and the entire face. It’s a very complementary style that will look good on any shape face thanks to the bangs and framing. For example, this style will lengthen round faces and soften square ones.

Use a curling iron or hot rollers to curl your hair, and use your fingers to loosen the curls to the style you want. Part your hair on the side and sweep your bangs over one eye. Let your hair frame your face, and you may want to use gel or spray to hold everything in place.

HAIRSTYLES FOR LONG FACE SHAPE, SUMMER 2010 HAIR TIPS

In selecting your hairstyle, you must first consider the shape of your face. Try sketching the outline of your face. If your face is long then you should know the difficulties of finding the right hairstyle. Here, we discuss hairstyles for long face shape.

First and foremost, you should put in mind that is long and slender and your forehead is about the same width as the part below your cheekbones. The goal of hairstyles for long face shape is that it must work in balancing the look of a long and slender face. You should try haircuts that are short to medium in length. The outline of the cut will shorten the length of the face when your hair is cut into short or medium length. Wear hairstyles that have curls on the sides or waves, these will fill the spaces around the chin, add softness to the straight lines in your face and provide the impression of a more oval shaped face. Center parts will look great on you. Just remember to add volume and fullness down the sides.

Avoid hairstyles that are long and straight as it will add length to your face. Remember that too much height makes your face appear longer. If you really want your hair long then you should combine it with curls or waves, although growing your hair past your shoulders can do more harm than good.

SUMMER 2010 HAIRSTYLES TRENDS

With the short pixie cut we have been looking at a lot of jaw lines and cheeks in 2009. For 2010, the eyes have it. 2010 sees the pixie cut growing wispy tresses on top and along the sides to tone down the roundness and give an interesting messy look to the face, of course with the focus on the eyes. Tousled locks and subdued oval shapes are in for all lengths whether they be short, medium or shoulder brush. Choppy layering is a must to draw attention from the borders of the face towards the eyes in the upper center.

The Bob hair makes a surprising comeback. Short bobs with very short sides, possibly shaved, are in. Top should be medium length, combed diagonally forward in an angled partial bang over the forehead. Chin length bobs (to conceal the prominent jaw), also with angled long partial bangs, need to be layered on the sides to achieve the tousled texture and draw attention from the jaw line. Shoulder length hair, definitely needs to be choppy and provide some tangle around the prominent jaw and chin. For narrow foreheads, hair at the temples may be held in place by hair clips. Bangs are very appropriate.

Wavy and angled hair is definitely in. Parting of the hair is recommended to be done off center but not too far from center. It may also be done at the exact center of the forehead depending on the shape of the face.

The hair at the sides have to be set and gently combed to fall downwards and backwards at a 45 degree ( or less) angle. This serves to emphasize the region of the eyes.

JAPANESE EMO HAIRSTYLES 2010

Nowadays most kids strive to be called cool among their peers and other people around them. There are several ways to become cool; and one way is by changing one’s hairstyle. Thousands of hairstyles are available for all people according to their lifestyle. One hairstyle stands out from the rest – the emo hairstyle.

You might be familiar with Japanese cartoons called anime and their comics as manga. There are some characters that sport the emo haircut. Or they can be the hairstyle of Japanese origin, the Visual Kei. This trend came about even before the emo genre started making noise on the western part of the world. However, there are similarities that can be observed with the two genres.

Visual Kei Fashion Style

Both have similar characteristics which can be used as the basis for creating a Japanese emo hairstyle.
The key element to any hairstyle is the presence of bangs. Many Japanese girls have their bangs cut across the forehead that compliments their oriental eyes. If you have long side swept bangs, you can say that you are on your way to having a cool emo hairstyle. You can cut your hair to make fringes yourself but if you want a professional touch, go to your local salon and ask the hairstylist to improve your bangs.
Length does not matter with any hairstyle because no matter what the length is, as long as the bangs look good on you, there would not be any problem. If you have tiny eyes, any type of bangs would suit you but make sure you are comfortable with it.

BEST HAIRSTYLES FOR TRIANGLE FACES 2010

Wider foreheads and pointy chins are the definition of a triangular face. For this shape you will want to pick a hairstyle that brings balance to the face.

In women and men, hairstyles that are layered can bring less attention to your chin and balance out the angular nature of your face. Shorter hairstyles are not recommended, but if you want to try it, go for something with bangs that hide your forehead and which sweep down towards your chin. Don’t get a bob that frames your face unless you can style it so that it adds ends that fall towards your face to create balance and draw attention away from your chin. In men, a beard can help balance out the face and draw less attention to the chin as well.

The right medium style adds layered and highlighted hair from the top of your head and creates volume while hugging the head. Creating an oval effect is the desired overall look for a triangular face. If you get wispy ends to a medium cut, you will find that your head looks more square-shaped. That is exactly the look that you want to avoid with you’re already angular features!

For long hair, bring out the wavy locks and run them down past your shoulders in layers. You will find that to create the best look with your face shape you will want to avoid the flared out hairstyles. It will cause a lion’s mane effect that will be undesirable. And using a middle part can be good causing a balanced look as well. Have fun experimenting!
