Unkempt Braid

Get the look
1. Comb your hair to brush out all the knots using a wide tooth comb and part your hair down the middle or to the side, depending on what suits your face.

2. Leave a bunch of hair on one side and scoop the rest to braid.

3. Grab the top section of the hair to be braided and divide into three strands. Start intertwining these strands like a normal braid. Keep the braid loose.

4. Once done, pull out a small strand from the plait and wrap it around the end of the braid to fasten it. Secure this strand with invisible pins. Now, further loosen out the braid to get the unkempt look.

5. Scrunch up the hair on your right. Divide it in strands and twirl them around your fingers to enhance the messy curly look.

Trend alert
The age old method of braiding hair is now being reinvented worldwide.

Spotted on various celebrities like Nicole Kidman, it's ideal for both long and medium length hair and adds much needed drama to the otherwise boring plait.

Messy Chignon

Get the look
1. Divide your hair in small sections and put hot rollers on for 20 minutes.

2. Open your hair and finger comb it. Make a side parting, also leaving out a thick strand in front for the fringe.

3. Starting from the back to the forehead, take thin sections and back-comb hair to slightly mess up the curls.

4. Twisting the hair a little from the ends, secure it with bobby pins on crest area. Roll the hair left over upside into three sections.

5. Smoothen and secure the hair on the outside with bobby pins. Straighten the hair in front to make a fringe. Accessorise the look with a stylish hair band.

Trend alert
Seen on glamazons like Nicole Richie, this version of the tousled bun is a great choice for formal occasions as well as casual events.

This look works for all types of hair and texture.

Side Swept Curls

Get the look
1. Divide your hair in small sections and curl tightly.

2. Once done, use your fingers to gently open up the curls until they lose some of their tightness.

3. Part the hair sideways and pull the curls over your right shoulder. Leave out one curl to loosely hang on the other side of your face.

4. Leave out another strand in front, from the curls on the right, and safely secure the rest with bobby pins just below the ear.

5. Only from the top, gently brush the left out strand to straighten it. Then sweep it across the forehead, and using bobby pins, loosely secure with the rest of the curls.

Trend alert
Giving the old Hollywood waves a twist, quite literally, this look is a big favourite with A-listers like Taylor Swift.

Retro Chic

Get the look
1. Divide your hair in small sections and put hot rollers on for at least 20 minutes.

2. Divide the hair in three segments, starting from front to the back. Keep the front section the smallest, and the furthermost section, the biggest.

3. Back comb the mid section. Smoothen the surface and bunch the hair up in a puff. Pin this puff up at the back.

4. Straighten the strand in front. Sweep it across the forehead and let the hair lie loosely on the side.

5. Put the hair in the last section over your left shoulder. Brush out the curls so they resemble flowy locks.

Trend alert

Healthy Hair Secrets

Great Hair Starts With a Good Cut

A professional haircut will ensure that your hair is free from damaged and spit ends and will make your hair look healthy. Seeing a professional will also give you the opportunity to get the right cut for your hair type and texture. Follow up visits which include regular trims will also guarantee that your hair will look and feel its best.

Healthy Hair is Hydrated Hair

Drink plenty of water. Water not only hydrates your skin and body, it also hydrates your hair.

Hair Product Overload

Don't use too many products. Product overload will weigh your hair down and make it look tired and greasy. Remember this rule: One product to style and one product to finish with.

Heat can be a Hazard for Your Hair

If you use a heat styler such as a hair-dryer, straightener or curling iron, then make sure to apply a heat protection product first. Heated stylers can zap your hair of moisture and leave your strands frizzy and hard to manage.

Sleep is Good for Your Hair

When you are sleeping your body is working its hardest to repair damage, including any hair damage, so plenty of sleep is a must. To further help your hair achieve its healthy best, try sleeping on a satin pillowcase. This will stop your hair from rubbing as you sleep and will control fly-aways.

Keep Your Hair Moisturized

Try an intensive conditioner once a week to keep your locks moisturized and to keep your hair soft. To get the best from your deep treatment, apply it to your hair then cover with plastic wrap or a plastic shower cap and leave for ten minutes before rinsing out. This will add heat and allow the treatment to penetrate. For a deeper condition, wrap a warm towel over the plastic wrap.

Hair Product Placement

Choose the right products for your hair. If you've styled with the right products for your hair type and washed with the right shampoo then your hair should be naturally shiny and manageable. If it's not, see your stylist and get an expert opinion on what will work best for your hair.

Your Hair Needs Good Food Too

Eating a well-balanced diet which is full of healthy proteins and lots of vitamins will keep your hair glowing. Not to mention your skin and your waistline!

Celebrity Hair Stylist's Best Product: It's Not What You Think

Felicia Leatherwood is a celebrity hair stylist who began her career with one very demanding client -- herself! She began by styling her own hair at the age of 8.
"My mom did not know how to do my hair," Felicia says. "I asked, 'Is it OK if I do my own hair?' And before I could finish the sentence she handed me the comb and the brush."

Before long Felicia was tending to the locks of many of her neighborhood friends, making pocket money doing what she loved most.

Today, Felicia Leatherwood's hairstyling business has grown to include a long list of celebrity clients, including singer Jill Scott and actor Anthony Anderson. Her specialty? Creating natural hairstyles and helping African-American men and women love their natural hair, sans chemicals and over-processing. It's a passion that has earned her the reputation as 'the hair whisperer.'

Felicia Leatherwood, hair stylist shares her secrets.

I sat down with Felicia in her cozy at-home hair salon to discuss the secrets to her success. I soon discovered that her thriving business was no accident, her eyes lighting up as she discussed what she calls "Intention".

"If you have an intention to grow a business, if you have an intention to be in a successful place with yourself, you don't need to worry about how it's going happen, you just have to know it's going happen, be prepared for when it does happen and be willing to do the work when it shows up."

Her Zen-like approach to success extends to the often prickly subject that stumps many women -- dealing with competition.

"You don't want to look at competition, you want to focus in on what you can provide to your consumers, what you need to improve your business."

Felicia also shares the advice she received from a wealthy female client. "Always have a product that can sustain your life, so that when you retire, it will always sell." But the best product, the woman said, is the one clients can only come to you to getz; "your personality."

While Felicia may have started styling hair earlier than most, I was surprised to discover that like so many of us, it took a great deal of time and courage to finally quit her "day job"-- a corporate position that brought her little joy -- and focus on hair full time. Once she realized that she was making as much money doing what she loved as what she dreaded, and that she could afford to support herself by following her dream- she never looked back.

That dream has been to empower women by not only teaching them how to love their hair, but showing them how to love themselves. And she attributes much of her professional success to her personalized, heart filled approach to clients who leave her salon feeling beautiful inside and out.

Felicia is a firm believer in the law of "reciprocity," meaning that the more you give to others, the more others want to give back. To that point, she doesn't just style celebrity clients, she also hosts seminars and webinars, often giving away her expertise for free. She knows that giving free information builds loyalty and trust and often creates paying customers in the future. And like many of the most inspiring achievers, success is not measured in dollars and cents alone.

Felicia Leatherwood

"When you hear you've changed someone's life through a workshop? That's amazing," she says. "That's all I came here to do, be a positive influence on other people. So that right there is success enough for me."

Tips to prevent Hair loss and Hair care

Hair is an essential factor when it comes to defining good looks. It is a reflection of your internal health. Most of the times, hair loss or changes in the texture of the hair could be indicative of some underlying pathology such as hypothyroidism, anemia, cancer, diabetes, and nutritional deficiencies. Hair fall, greying of hair, dandruff, and a receding hairline, are some common hair care concerns. This section gives you tips on hair care to complete your definition of beauty.

Hair care tips:-

Avoid shampooing your hair daily. Washing your hair everyday deprives it of essential oils and dries your scalp and hair.

If you like the glossy look, add a few drops of shine serum to water and spray it on to your hair.

If you have oily hair squirt water at the roots. This does wonders for your hair.

Try not to use hair dyes, hairdryers, and curling irons as these can aggravate the problem of hair loss, resulting in baldness

Include foods rich in calcium in your diet; calcium is necessary for strengthening the hair follicles and roots in your scalp.

Causes of frizzy hair

Hair plays a vital role in the overall aesthetic appeal of an individual. Frizzy hair hence becomes a cause of concern for most of us. They are not only delicate but also difficult to tackle. The best way to get rid of frizzy hair is to understand what causes it. According to hair care experts, some people are born with natural frizzy hair. Thus, you may inherit this trait from your parents. People with God-gifted curls may have frizzier hair as compared to those with straight hair.

Apart from your genetic makeup, the environment may also be responsible for the crimpy look of your hair. Too much exposure to the sun can lead to dry, damaged hair. Ultraviolet (UV) rays can damage your hair cuticles. Harsh sunrays tend to dry up the natural moisture. Dehydration of the scalp tightens the pores; and as a result, your hair begins to spiral up. This makes your hair look dull and frizzy. In addition, humidity and wind may further worsen this problem.

Another important reason for dry frizzy hair is too much of brushing or combing. Excessive brushing causes split-ends and increases the tendency to spring outward uncontrollably. The use of harsh chemicals, treatments, and procedures can also damage your hair. Excessive use of blow dryers, curling devices, and straightening irons can cause frizzing of hair. These appliances take away the natural moisture from the hair.Overuse of styling products, dyes, bleaches, and coloring agents can also tighten your hair pores. The high alcohol content in these products subjects your hair to harmful chemical reactions. Moreover, not oiling your hair regularly can weaken them from the roots, giving a frizzy look. Few dermatologists also believe that, improper diet can lead to dull, wiry locks. Low levels of hair protein can kink up the hair. Lack of essential vitamins, minerals, and nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids, and vitamin E can keep your hair lifeless and dull, making them prone to frizziness.

Taking care of your oily hair

Every morning, after a good hair wash, your hair looks very nice and clean; but as evening sets in, it starts looking greasy, lame, and lank. This is because you are suffering from a common hair problem that many people suffer from, the ‘oily hair’ problem. Most people think that oily hair is the result of an oily scalp, but that is not true. In fact, a dry scalp causes the sebaceous glands to produce more oil, which later gets transferred to the hair strands. Straight hair moves the oil quickly away from the scalp, whereas kinked hair moves the sebum very slowly away from the scalp.

Therefore, first and foremost, dryness of the scalp has to be treated to overcome the problem of oily hair. The excess sebum produced by the dry scalp has also got to be controlled. Hair should be washed on a regular basis using a good shampoo, but without hair conditioners. Sebum itself is a conditioner and any more conditioning will make the hair more oily and sticky. While washing your hair, you must bear in mind that shampoos are not only meant for the hair. They are also specifically designed to clean the scalp.

Women must thoroughly apply the shampoo on their scalp and massage it vigorously with their fingers. Even the choice of the shampoo makes a big difference. Hence, shampoos that have been formulated for oily skin should be used as they have strong detergents to remove the extra grease. If needed, one must apply the shampoo more than once, in order to get rid of all the excess oil from the scalp and hair. No foaming is observed when the shampoo is in the process of removing large amounts of sebum. Once foaming starts, you can stop the shampooing.

Always rinse your hair thoroughly with cool or lukewarm water, because soap residue can increase the oiliness of your hair. It is better to avoid conditioners, gels, and hair care products as these may aggravate the problem. A vinegar rinse may be useful in combating extremely oily hair. Diluted lemon juice too can help you to have oil-free hair and a pleasant-smelling scalp. Although diet is not directly connected to this problem, eating nutritious meals and drinking plenty of water will definitely promote the good health of your scalp, hair, and skin.

Shag hair style

Shag: Iz back again!!

Gallery: Trendy Shag Hairstyles for Men

The pop-inspired shag is the 2012 hairstyle trend, whether it is short, medium long, layered or tousled. Men everywhere embrace the style. We show you how male stars wear the shag

In the 1970s, shags first started to be the hairstyle of choice for men as well as for women. Mick Jagger, Jane Fonda and other well-known persons quickly took to the casual hairstyle. That's not surprising in view of the many advantages this hairstyle offers. Let’s see what the appeal is.
The Men's Shag is Back in Full Force

Shags are layered, feathery looking haircuts, which may be very short or reach all the way to the shoulders. We like the shag best with side parting. Of course, it has to be a messy parting to go with the shaggy look. Obviously, the devil-may-care tousled look is the big attraction. The shag stands for fun, openness, and youthful nonchalance. The shag even looks good in the transition period to another hairstyle. Men love the no-muss-no-fuss style.
Men's Hairstyles: Styling Tips for the Shag

Start with a shampoo, work styling mousse through your hair and blow-dry it. While you blow-dry, keep running your fingers through your hair to create the tousled look. Then use your fingers to shape your hair the way you like it. Allow the hair to air-dry completely. If your hair is thin you may like to work some volumising mousse through you hair before blow-drying it with your head hanging upside down. Put some styling gel between your fingers before running them through the dry hair again. This provides additional structure. Use hair wax to accentuate individual strands and hair ends. A full beard looks great with the shag.
Men's Hairstyles: Ways to the Perfect Shag

Gel and wax are not the only tools to give shags the proper structure. Streaks will do the same trick. Keith Urban added differently coloured streaks to his shag, while Owen Wilson used more subtle streaking in a nuance of the same colour for the same purpose.

We hope you find some inspiration for your hairstyle in our gallery of male stars wearing the shag.

Men's Hairstyles: David Guetta's Long Shag

The French DJ and music producer David Guetta ("Nothing but the Beat") is in his mid-forties and looks years younger with his way-out shag. The side and neck hair is styled outward, which is typical of the shag.

Men's Hairstyles: Keith Urban and his Long Shag

Rock musician Keith Urban is Nicole Kidman’s sweetheart. He wears his only slightly layered shag long with middle parting. Blonde streaks give his brown hair structure and add interest to the soft rocker style

Men's Hairstyles: Owen Wilson with Midi Shag

Shags are the perfect solution for men with fine hair. Owen Wilson knows it and therefore wears the shag for many years

Men's Hairstyles: Rob Lowe with Short Shag

hippie look

New Hippie look

This year’s festival season starts with the 13th Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. As April nears its end, thousands of music fans come together to enjoy music at the Stagecoach Festival in Indio (California). Quite a few stars join the fun. Music lovers celebrate with rock, indie, hip hop and electronic music. Of course, the eyes also have their field days with colour and inspiring summer hairdos. See for yourself!

Coachella is the Woodstock of today’s young people. Of course, love, the peace movement and rock n’ roll will never die but new styles won’t be denied either in 2012. Musicians of all genres share the stage. Electro DJs like David Guetta perform side by side with rock bands like Radiohead and rappers like Snoop Dogg. 43 years after Woodstock, hippies and jazz musicians are still a big part of the scene even without greats like beatnik, poet and singer Janis Joplin and Ravi Shankar. In true Woodstock style, celebrities and young couples dominate the scene. People sleep in tents to stay near the party grounds where for two precious days music is king. Styles and styling come natural in festival heaven: It is casual and reminiscent of the hippie era.

Festival Hair Styles with Hippie Look

The mood is happy and enthusiastic, and the days are long and hot. At 32 °C [almost 90 °F] in the shade formal threads are out and hair styles must withstand the late spring heat. Even in this part of the Sonoran desert, Laura Love demonstrates her knack for always finding the perfect hair style. Her pigtail hair creation is a pretty alternative to the classic beach wave look. Her pigtail is loosely braided and some stray strands of hair enhance the casual nature of her hair style. Styling the pigtail in the Laura Love look is easy. Below, we show you how it is done.

1. Shampoo your hair before working a generous amount of heat protectant through the towel-dry hair.

2. Pull the hair over a large round brush while blow-drying it.

3. Use a tail comb to create a middle parting.

4. Gather the hair on one side of the neck and allow it to fall forward over the shoulder.

5. Now braid the hair to a loose pigtail. Don’t worry about your braiding skills. The look is supposed to be casual and a bit tousled.

6. Secure the end of the braid using a scrunchy. You may like to wrap a leather band around the scrunchy for a stylish accent.

7. Pull a few strands of hair out of the braid on both sides and allow the strands to casually fall into your face.

8. Apply extra-gloss hair spray for the final touch.

Beach waves

Vanessa Hudgens parted her casual beach waves in the middle. The wreath of roses on her head adds the perfect festival accent.

Festival Hair Styles: Tips and Tricks

Ladies’ rooms are rare at the festival. The following styling tricks work without a mirror and may save you from waiting in line and miss events:

You may not have the time to shampoo your hair and also attend all the exciting events. Using dry shampoo is a practical alternative. It keeps your hair fresh another day and adds volume to your hair.

Spraying some hair tonic on your hair on a hot day is a refreshing idea, and the pleasant fragrance is an extra bonus.

Like the skin, hair also needs to be protected from UV radiation. Wearing a hat protects the hair and the skin from UV damage. Hats also look stylish and fit the festival atmosphere.

On a bad hair day simply opt for the undone look. Tease your hair and allow it to fall as it may.

Afro textured hair::A typical texture of Black African hair that has not been altered by hot combs, flat irons, or chemicals (by perming, relaxing, or straightening). Each strand of this hair type grows in a tiny spring-like, corkscrew shape. The overall effect is such that, despite relatively fewer actual hair shafts compared to straight hair,^[ this texture appears (and feels) denser than its straight counterparts. Due to this, it is often referred to as "thick", "bushy", or "woolly".

Bangs and Fringes::Hair that is combed to the front of the head and cut at or above the eyebrows.

Bobcut::A classic short hairstyle where the ends are cut just around chin length and aligned close to the facial area. A bowl can also be placed on the top of the head and the remaining part of the head can be shaved very short. This style is most common among women.

Bouffant::A bouffant (pronounced /buːˈfɑːnt/) is a type of hairstyle characterized by hair piled high on the head and hanging down on the sides.
