Most-favorite Bob Variations of all Time – Oklahoma City

Throughout the years, the bob has been one of the most-loved and sought-after hairstyles and many celebrities have sported it in the past. Even today, many celebrities carry a bob with elegance and style. However, the interesting thing is that there have been several variations of the bob and all of these have been in fashion for decades. If you are someone who cannot manage long hair or find the daily styling tedious, a bob is one of the best options for you.

Sleek and Straight

One of the simplest and most stylish forms of bob is sleek and straight. A lot of celebrities are wearing it and it is the easiest to pull off. Whether you blow dry you hair or simply straighten it, a straight bob is much more manageable than all its other variations. The straight bob comes in different lengths – it can be very short or shoulder-length, depending on your preference.

Waves and Curls

A bob is not only for people with straight hair – if you have wavy hair, you can very easily wear a short bob or one with layers. With a layered bob, you can easily divide the volume so that you don’t end up having a fluffed up hair do. If you are not sure, you can always ask your hair stylist to guide you.

Pulled Back

One great way of carrying a bob is by pulling back hair from the front and tying it up neatly, while the rest of the hair hangs loose. You can also incorporate a little bit of back combing if you are afraid that the pulled back look will look too flat. The best thing about this style is that it looks formal, especially if you add a classy hair accessory.

Bob with Bangs

If you have an oval or round face, you can still wear a bob extremely well by adding some bangs or fringe so that it frames your face and makes it look slimmer. By adding highlights to your hair, you can make it look even more glamorous and give your face a much thinner effect.

Chin Length

If you have a long face, the chin length bob is definitely for you. A short haircut makes a face look longer so the best cut for long faces is chin length bob with bangs for extra effect. Another thing you can try with long face is putting waves or curls in your hair to soften it up.

The chin length bob has been sported by many celebrities and has a great overall effect on the personality.

Inverted Bob

One of the trendiest and the sexiest bob variation is the inverted bob. The hair on the front is longer than the back and the top is fuller, making it look much more stylish that the other variations. The stacked and graduated look at the back is very effective and it looks great with highlights. If you are not so sure about this style, ask your stylist to show you some pictures.

Afro Punk Hair – Oklahoma City Hair Stylist

It doesn’t matter whether you’re interested in punked out dreadlocks or a jazzy Mohawk, there are certain rules to follow (or break) if you’re going after an Afro punk look. The Afro punk style is an alternative black trend that’s been spearheaded by Roscoe Dash and Busta Rhymes, but taken to various extremes by strong, eccentrics everywhere. In order to pull off this look, you need to be willing to make a time commitment to styling your hair and then prepare yourself to start breaking all the rules.

Busta Rhymes

The punk look for African-Americans uses a variety of different tools from hair dye and body glitter, to chalk, and wearable hair strands. Using these tools, hair cuts can be complemented and given an extra boost of pizzazz. By using a combination of different tools and techniques anyone can get this look and make it look singularly unique.

It’s important that however you decide to cut and style your hair, that you keep the use of chemicals to a minimum. At the same time, in order to make your hair look like you meant for it to look the way you’re styling it, you’re going to need to use hydrating conditioners and oil sheen to keep it in tip-top shape. Hair that’s broken and dry doesn’t look stylish, it looks unhealthy. If you aren’t prepared to take the extra time required to maintain your style, Afro punk may not be right for you.

Rihanna is a great example of someone who actively wears the Afro punk style. Her stylist first relaxes the texture of her hair and then cuts it and shapes it with a razor to give it that edgy look. Asymmetry is one of the defining features of the Afro punk style and Rihanna demonstrates this with her Mohawk and shaved head. Creating drastic asymmetry is one way to make sure that your Afro punk style will make an impact.

Using permanent color to create strong contrasts is another important feature of Afro punk. Don’t attempt this at home by yourself. See a stylist to get positive results. The hair color available at the salon is less damaging to the hair, which is extremely important with Afro punk. If your hair is brittle and unhealthy, that’s what people will notice, not the creative and unique appearance of your style.

If you’re just starting out with an Afro punk do, start by getting a Mohawk. Roscoe Dash is a rap star who’s worked hard on his signature look. His hair cuts are attention-grabbing and all done without chemicals. His hair is simply cut into a basic Mohawk style and then patterns are carefully shaved into both of the sides of the head.

Celebrity Hair Styles That Changed the World

We may hate to admit it, but celebrities have a big influence on the way we wear our hair. Let’s face it, it’s easy to imagine ourselves in hair styles that we see on the big screen (or the small screen for that matter). A great celebrity hair cut can make a previously unpopular (or only somewhat popular) do into the latest and greatest trend. That’s what happened recently when Anne Hathaway got an attractive pixie cut for her role in Les Miserables. Women everywhere sat up and took notice and decided to give a pixie cut a try.

Anne Hathaway

Not all hair styles that hit the big screen are able to wow women enough that they actually go the salon and ask for the same look. It’s hard to say whether it’s the celebrity herself or the hair that makes the big impression on women. Jennifer Aniston’s hair has always garnered a lot of attention and followers. Her newsworthy locks have been mimicked by women throughout the United States. And Audrey Hepburn hair in Charade has always been worthy of disciples. Something about it makes other women want to go bold and do it too.

Edgy hair cuts, though attention-getting don’t necessarily get women to follow suit. Rather, hair cuts that are remarkably flattering on the celebrity and able to resonate with the times seem to be the ones that women tend to desire the most. Sometimes, the trends hit the celebrity circuit first. The pixie cut is actually a great example of this. Miley Cyrus and Maggie Gyllenhaal both sport the low-maintenance hair style as well as Ginnifer Goodwin. Anne Hathaway ended up with the popular pixie cut after her Les Miserables role required her to wear a bowl-cut. She needed a graceful way to transition out of this hair style. Who knew that women everywhere would envy the new cut.

Audrey Hepburn

It can be frightening to go ahead and chop the hair short and hope for the best, but more and more women are opting for these styles that require little maintenance. If you talk with your stylist, you could get a pixie cut that will grow out with little or no discomfort and even enjoy the various transitions from super-short to medium-length hair and beyond. Coming up with a transitioning plan may be enough to give you the courage to go for it. After all, hair does grow back in time. A pixie cut is bold and eye-catching, but strangely attractive. It can give women the opportunity to grow through various lengths and looks rather than wearing the same old style for eons. Michelle Williams is currently growing out her super-short hair proving to women everywhere that it can be done.

Winter 2013-2014 Hairstyle Trends – Edmond OK Hair Salons

This winter, the real question has to do with how to part the hair. There’s plenty of diversity in terms of the length of hair, wavy versus straight hair, and the color choices available to runway models, but in all cases, the part seems to feature in heavily. It’s important to be attentive about how your hair falls this season and though there are some punked out colors and super short styles, by and large, the look is somewhat tousled and natural.

If you have short hair, there are plenty of things you can do with it this season. Pull it back from the face, or leave it wind-swept with dramatic bangs over the eyes. But make sure that you have the right cut for the season. The pixie cut is still in as well as the bob and there are plenty of other short hair styles that have made the grade as well, but steer clear of perms if you have ultra-short hair or even medium length-hair. Kinky curls aren’t really in this season.

Medium length and longer hair styles are still all the rage, particularly if you hair has just a slight wave to it and works well in styles with plenty of tendrils hanging loose. Ideally, these tendrils will be straight or nearly straight. A little bit of wave is okay as long as it look natural and unintentional. If you have particularly curly hair or dramatic waves, you may want to consider getting out the straightening tool or visiting a stylist to get your hair permanently straightened to stay on top of this season’s trends.

You can part your hair on center or over to the side, but make sure that you either use plenty of gel to tame all those fly-away strands, or leave them intentionally loose so that they can create some drama around your face. This fall we saw the heavy contrast between super-pristine hair with plenty of gel to keep it in place versus the natural look of loose hair that appears to have been out in a heavy breeze all day. This winter, this style continues to make an impression on the runway which is perfect for winter hat season when hair tends to look a little disheveled anyway.

Though parted hair is definitely what’s “in” this season, you can still comb the hair back so that it doesn’t have a part, if you must, but this is considerably less popular for winter 2013-2014. However, if this style suits your face more, it’s still entirely acceptable. Visit your hair stylist to get a cut that will support a side or center part if you want to stay current with the trends.

Messy Hairstyles for Men – Oklahoma City Men’s Haircuts

For men, the messy look can be extremely sexy, but it’s important to have the right cut to get you hair to look the way you really want it to. Messy can also look unkempt and correspondingly unattractive depending on the circumstances. If you’re looking for a hair cut that will give you plenty of versatility and allow you to wear your hair in a number of different styles included the “tousled” or “messed-up” look, continue reading. You’ll need to start first with the right hair cut in order to create a look that’s attractive and sexy.

Messed up hair looks natural and rugged on men which is part of its appeal. There are several different hair cuts that can support a messed up look and most of these cuts can also be arranged to look very clean cut as well.

Although the traditional “flop” isn’t really in right now, a floppy hair cut can provide you with a lot of flexibility in terms of style. Essentially, this cut is longer on top and shorter at the sides, but it isn’t as long as the flops that men wore in the late 80’s and early 90’s. Instead the hair is just long enough to create some texture and a tousled, wind-blown look.

This season, you can wear your curls in a slightly longer style with a little bit of gel or mousse to give it a “wet” look. If you have curls, it would be best to create a look that’s soft enough for you to run your fingers through and not completely destroy the look. Your hair should never look hard to the touch if you’re trying to give it a disheveled appearance.

The bedhead look is another messed-up style for men that gives the impression that you’ve just rolled out of bed and you still look great. A proper haircut for this style would include a lot of layers and texture so that you can show off any of the waves you’ve got to your hair. After you’ve gotten the right cut, you’ll need to use the right styling products to complete the look.

And finally, one of the most popular men’s hair styles to hit the runway this season is a cut that keeps hair longer on the top and shorter in back and on the sides of the head. This trendy style is extremely versatile. It can be combed back to give a very clean and pristine appearance or it can be styled to give a messy, unkempt appearance. If that’s not enough, you can comb it forward so that the long hair creates bangs or even to the side so to create a more classic look.

Feathered Hair for a Full Fledged 1980’s Look – Oklahoma City Hair Stylist

The feathered hair look came in in the 1970’s, but became widely popular in the 1980’s among both men and women. A number of 1980’s looks have become popular again recently and some women have capitalized on this look and made it their own in today’s world. Getting your hair to have the Farah Fawcett appearance isn’t easy. You need the right hair cut and the right tools to do the job, but if you succeed at creating a feathered appearance to the hair that is both whimsical and romantic, it will be undeniably sexy.

Farah Fawcett

Normally, feathered hair was cut so that is was long on either side of the head. In most cases, the hair was long enough to cover the ears, although in some instances it could be as long as shoulder length. The hair was not layered, but rather brushed back at the sides using a special technique that gave it a feathery appearance like that of a bird. Feathered hair could be parted at the side or in the center to achieve a desirable look.

Today’s feathered hair styles are usually done on medium length hair which can make it more manageable. Creating a feathered appearance can take some practice and a lot of hair spray to keep the style in place. Using a curling iron, the hair is curled backward away from the face and then, after the iron is removed, the hair is brush back carefully and gently and then immediately sprayed in place with hair spray. Over-spraying the feathered locks can give the hair a sticky, heavy appearance. In contrast, under-spraying can cause the feathered hair to wilt and slowly lose shape over time.

Figuring out how long to curl the hair, the type and size of curling iron to use to achieve the look you’re after and the right hair styling products for your hair type can take some time. It takes some finesse to pull off the look without creating a mess of the final product. Talk with your stylist about getting your hair cut the right length for what you hope to achieve with your style and then ask about recommended products that will hold your hair in place without weighing the hair down too much.

Though feathered hair isn’t hot this season on the runways, it can still be your signature look. This is a unique style that will stand out amidst the crowd. Combining this look with the punked out hair colors available today could add some spice to final product. Just be prepared to spend plenty of time on your feathered hair each day. This is definitely a high-maintenance look that won’t maintain itself without a time commitment on your part.

Variations of the Crew Cut – OKC Men’s Hair Salon

Men’s hair styles don’t change as dramatically as women’s from season to season, but that doesn’t mean that there aren’t a diversity of different cuts for men to choose from. Take the crew cut, for example. This is a style that’s been “in” for decades, but it isn’t just one discreet do. The crew cut has taken many forms over the years and it has a history all its own. If you’re considering a crew cut, you should know that this style isn’t as straightforward as it seems and when you go to your stylist to tell him (or her) that this is what you want, there is actually a wide range of different looks you could end up with.

Modified Crew Cut

Technically speaking, a crew cut is a short hair style for men in which the hair at the front, top of the head, is longer and slowly getting shorter moving toward the back of the crown. The hair on the side of the head might be short or medium-length and is usually tapered. The different lengths and tapering available in this cut is what gives it so much diversitThe different lengths and tapering available in this cut is what gives it so much diversity.

Some people refer to the short crew cut as a “butch”, but this isn’t necessarily correct. A butch is a cut in which the hair on the top of the hair is all of the same length (in contrast to the graduated hair length from front to back in a crew cut). Longer crew cuts are sometimes called the “Ivy League Crew Cut” or even just the “Ivy League” for short. The longest hairs on an Ivy League cut are 1 ½ inches in length, getting shorter at the back and sides of the head.

Another variation of the crew cut is called a “Flattop”. In this hair cut, the hair is cut from the front to a chosen point on the back of the head in a sloping downward incline. This hair style looks slightly different from the more traditional Ivy League Crew Cut.

All of the different types of crew cuts or buzz cuts can be maintained with something called “butch wax”. Butch wax is a hair control wax that can be used to shape the overall look of the crew cut into a distinctive style. The length of the longest hair on the head should be determined in part by the shape of the man’s face and what would be most attractive as well as the amount of maintenance a man is willing to do on his hair each day. Though butch wax is extremely easy to use, men who don’t wish to spend a lot of time on their hair should opt for the shorter do.

Flattering Hair Color Options for Women Over 40 – Hair Stylist, OKC

As a mature woman you want to at least look your age, or just a tad younger. You want to make sure your hair color complements your image. To get the right color there are some tried and true rules you want to follow so you get the best results for your age. . Certain hair coloring strategies will create a more youthful look in older women. It’s good to know what you want before you approach your stylist for a hair color change.

Girl with blonde hair

For women who are blonde or considering going blonde, you’ll want to consider getting bangs and layers in your hair. Instead of bleaching your entire head of hair, it might be wiser to go with extensive highlights instead. If you have layers, bangs, and highlights, you won’t have to return to your stylist as often for touch-ups. Layers will help hide your roots and highlights will simply make roots less obvious.

Get a hair cut that has plenty of choppiness to it and get some long bangs in tandem with streaks if you want to roll back the clock by ten years. Most stylists agree that bold blonde highlights along with the lift that layers provide help to hide wrinkles and other signs of aging. Going blonde with highlights instead an all-over color change is a much better choice than getting your hair dyed red. Unless red hair is natural, this color can bring out blotchiness in the skin and highlight some of the features that aging women want to cover up. A honey blonde hair color with plenty of sunny tones helps tone down the look of brown spots.

If highlights aren’t your thing, ask your stylist to use darker tones on the hair underneath and lighter tones on the hair on top. Better yet, use even brighter highlights around the face. The effect of using color to create depth can have an immediately de-aging impact on the face and making the color of the hair slightly darker underneath gives the overall look remarkably natural.

If you decide to go blonde, or add some highlights to hair that’s already blonde, you’ll need to make sure to maintain your locks. Hair that’s been bleached or highlighted can be sensitive to heat styling and therefore prone to breaking off. After you get your hair bleached or highlighted, you’ll need to do regular hair treatments to keep your hair thoroughly conditioned.

Whatever you do, make sure you choose a color that isn’t too dark for your skin. Super dark hair color can highlight wrinkles and bring out features that give away your age. Instead, if you’re going to change your hair color, choose a tone that’s just one shade lighter than your natural color.

Pink’s Rock Star Tresses – Oklahoma City Hair Salons

Pink is well known for her outrageous and edgy hairstyles. They may seem like a real challenge to recreate, but if you follow a few of these tips and tricks, you can have hair as cool as Pink’s. Marcia Hamilton is the creative master behind most of Pink’s hairstyles. With a little help from your stylist and some elbow grease at home you can have Pink’s awesome looks too!

 

Cropped screenshot of Marilyn Monroe from the ...

One of Pink’s latest styles is a Marilyn Monroe masterpiece. With much of the singer’s blond locks curled and swept gently to one side, you’ll need some salon support from your stylist to get the right haircut to give you a starting point. If your hair is too short for this look, talk with your stylist about getting hair extensions put in your hair. There are a variety of different types of hair extensions that could work for this look. If you aren’t willing to commit to extensions in a more permanent way, you could get clip in extensions to add to your hair’s length. Once you have the right length and style for your hair, you can use mousse to get the style look just like Pink’s hair!

 

To finish off the Marilyn Monroe look, apply mousse from the root to the tip right after you wash your hair. This will help to give your hair the volume you need and a little extra loose curl for further appeal. Use a round brush to further add to the volume of your hair as you blow dry. If you need temporary extensions in your hair, clip them in at this point. To finish off the look, you’ll need to use a curling iron on the final stretch to give it some curl.

 

But perhaps the Marilyn Monroe do just isn’t your thing. If you want to emulate Pink’s pompadour/faux hawk, that’s entirely possible. Again, you’ll need to see a stylist to get the right cut to help support this particular hair style. Extensions can give you the right length if your hair is too short on top for a big pompadour. Once you’ve got the cut and shape of your hair right, you need to avoid washing before you begin to style.

 

Working with dirty hair is essential with the pompadour. If you try to create this style with freshly washed hair, it won’t work; slightly dirty hair will help work the overall style. Use a large barrel curling iron to give your hair the lift that it needs for this look and then bobby pin the big curls in place on your hair. Apply a gel or pomade to the sides as well as the back to give your hair the lift that it needs for the actual pompadour and then bobby pin the big curls in place on your hair. Apply a gel or pomade to the sides as well as the back of your hair and brush the styling products through your hair.

 

To finish off the pompadour, remove the pins from your curls and take them down. Then use a teasing comb or brush to back comb your curls. Finally, spray them into place with a heavy duty styling spray.

Gypsy Hair for Thick Locks – Oklahoma City Hairdresser

Though it may seem like the ultimate beauty blessing, thick hair actually has its pros and cons. Depending on how blessed your tresses are can have a big impact on the types of hair styles that would most complement your look. Thick hair can take some extra care and a different approach than thinner hair. Layered gypsy hair cuts may be a good option if you’re looking for some drama that will bring out the very best in your thick, luminous locks.

Shirley MacLaine

The gypsy hair cut is built from layers. Initially, the stylist pulls up a section of the hair at the crown of the head that will act as a guide for the rest of the cut. The remaining hair is then layered bit by bit by pulling it upward to a 180 degree elevation , ultimately creating striking layers that are relatively amenable to styling in a number of different ways.

The versatility of this hair style is what’s made it so popular among women with tons of hair.
