Haircut Trends

Bob with Textured Ends

This hairstyle is a modified bob cut with heavily-textured ends creating an edgy, ultra-modern look. The style calls to mind the late 90s, particularly the look Mila Jovovich wore in the film “The Fifth Element”. The key differences are an off-center parting and gentle staggering of the parting line. The hair is styled to be straight and is definitely an intense look. It’s a good hairstyle for a very wide, or a diamond-shaped face, as it camouflages the width and makes the face appear slimmer and draws attention to the eyes

Sleek Razor-Cut Hair

The turn of the current century gave us a firm grasp of the benefits of the smooth, straight, and sleek hairstyles. And now, a decade into the new millennium we see the next stage in that evolution of style. This long style features a clean, soft cutting line that graduates from chin length in the foreground to the mid-back at its longest point. The near-platinum blonde color creates a shimmering canvas that gleams in the light. The ends of the hair are softened with a razor-cut texture and lie gently along the skin with a transition – thanks to the texturing – that is nearly invisible

Pixie Haircuts

left:
Since not all women can be blonde, here’s a look done in a mocha shade of brunette that calls to mind the quasi-unisex styles of the sixties. This short, pixie-type haircut features a fuller top and crown area, and is styled with a texturing product to maximize the hair’s natural wave and create this almost wind-blown effect. The wave in the hair is defined and diffuses the play of the light off the strands, allowing the color to appear even softer and making the look appear more casual, as well as a great deal more sultry.

By contrast to the first look, the second hairstyle is slightly darker, with an espresso tone to the color and a styling technique that makes the hair glossy while keeping the locks defined. It’s a style that calls to mind Demi Moore in the film “Ghost”. The point-cut fringe angles to the right side of the face and makes the eyes appear more intense and focused, While the differences between the two looks are minimal, the impact of those minor changes are significant. With or without a potter’s wheel, this is a style that could certainly resurrect a lost love if one comes around.
