What Hair Colors Are In for 2011?

By Melanie Libatique

Getting some new and refreshed color for your hair is one ways of keeping your look updated and fresh. For the hair color trends this 2011, hair stylists have indicated that strong haircuts along with bold hues take the cake.

BLONDES

White blonde (just like Marilyn Manroe) has been one of the biggest trends during the New York Fashion week. Hair stylists have associated this bold shade with "sex appeal" and "daring." Sporting this hair color with an edgy pixie cut or full-length wavy mane should keep you in style during the summer and the coming fall.

You can also explore other shades of blonde which are still more on the "natural side." Vanilla and strawberry shades are very suitable for the summer look. Wearing these colors with braids or loose waves is a very girl-next-door, hip look. Consult with your hair salon before doing anything drastic. Make sure you pick a shade that suits your features and skin tone.

Also, hair stylists have been raving about wearing light shades of blonde with dark roots. It is recommended that if you do decide to go with this trend, make sure you go to a reputable hair salon that does this type of hair color styling. The key is DRAMA! The combination of white blonde hair with dark roots is dramatic in itself and there's no way to go but up from this point. Sharply layered short hair or long hair is a good combo.

BROWNS AND BRUNETTES

Brown and brunette hair colors are the easiest to wear and style, according to a survey among women. It suits any skin tone and is friendly to almost any classification of features. Caramel and dark brown hair colors are still in for 2011. The best way to wear it for this season is either sleek and straight; or big and wavy. Hair stylists have said that retro trends are back and so blunt bangs and big hair will be a common sight in fashion magazines and runways.

This color is ideal for women on-the-go and just wants minimum effort for maintenance. Any haircut can adapt to any shade. But if you want to style things up for special occasions, loose up-dos and minimal hair accessories should do the trick. On the other hand, sporting hats and beanies are the accessories for the casual chic chicks.

BOLD REDS

Red hair color is big this year. Celebrities like Rihanna have been going bold with red and it's going to catch on for the rest of the year. Hair salons carry numerous shades of red and choosing the right hue for your skin tone and facial features is important. Red-orange shades and hot reds are the ones you want to look for if your aim is to really stand out. However, if you want things to be more subtle, getting a few highlights could be up to your pace. However, a full head of a single bold color is the big trend for the year. A pale skin tone is perfect for this hair color.

CLASSIC BLACK

Black hair color will remain a classic go-to for the hairstyle savvy girl. This color is timeless, but to make it more high-fashion, give yourself an edgy haircut such as blunt bangs with a very short bob. Sleek and straight is the way to go in terms of hairstyle. A structured haircut is the most suitable partner for a jet black hair this 2011.

How to Look and Feel 20 Years Younger in 1 Hour!

How to Look and Feel 20 Years Younger in 1 Hour!

By Juan Woods

A client of mine asked me the other day "Should I color my hair?" Even though she had at least 30% grey, I had to ask myself, "Is this a trick question?" She was only 42 years old, but I had to find out how serious she was or perhaps was she only talking out loud? Having this much grey and not covering it at her age meant either she just did not care or she had eye sight issues. So I started out by asking questions like "How do you want other people to view you and do you want to look your age"? Some women can`t be bothered with their hair and others are simply unaware of how they look.

So we talked a little more on upkeep, color and styles to get a better understanding of what she might expect. As we spoke, she felt better about the outcome. We chose a color by Aveda to match her own hair color so when it grows out, the change will be very subtle. What most people don't understand is how much grey takes out the shine in your hair. The whole experience was a positive one and her hair came out wonderful; she was quite pleased! Now she will come in every 4 to 6 weeks and all her friends just say how youthful her hair looks and they have forgotten all about the grey!

The upkeep is well worth the time and effort. Coloring your hair can take around an hour or more but the results can be life changing. Have you ever seen makeovers on TV? The people look so plain, but with a fun hair style and hair color their transformation is incredible! It's as they have been shot in the arm with confidence! Just amazing how simple a makeover can boost one's self esteem. A good tip is don't color your own hair. The color never comes out like the picture on the box. True, box coloring is much less expensive than going to a professional hair salon. However, if you do something wrong (color not right) the cost to fix the problem will be higher than normal prices at the salon because your hair is now a big mess! If you do color your hair don't attempt to re-color when a mistake happens! Make appointment to repair your screwed up hair. Your hair professional will bring your hair back vibrant and sexy! There are so many great professional hair consultants who will listen to your ideas of your new look. Search for a hair salon online who has good reviews, who has been in business for years and reputation. Give your friend a compliment on their hair and they will tell you what the best salon to go to. Make appointment and relax!

Hello my name is Juan and I been a certified beautician for the past 5 years and I own a hair salon in Washington i edge you to make it a point and visit my beauty salon anytime you are in Washington for a look that is new and fresh.
