There are a few trends for 2011 going into 2012 for long and short hair, curly or straight and there will be something that will suit your lifestyle whether you have minutes or hours to spend on creating your look. Here are some of them;

Long Hairstyles

The Double Knot – This style looks effortless and feminine and can be worn for work for a girly touch to a power suit or on more casual days when you want your hair out of the way. Simply split hair into two, tie in a knot then tie again. Secure with pins or scrunchies. Simples!

Braided Topknot – Why this is still popular is a mystery. It looks like you couldn’t be bothered washing, brushing or indeed doing anything with your hair before leaving the house. But, if you want the unkempt, lack of effort look this is another simple style. Pull your hair into a high ponytail, braid it and twist into a topknot that sits atop your head. The messier the better.

Half Up Braids – A variation on the Goddess braid style, this is a cute look that is very feminine and looks great on long hair. Braid two sections of hair on either side, pull behind your head and secure leaving the rest to fall free.

This new-cutting edge look is a soaring trend with young women, no longer is it isolated to punks or rock chicks but it’s become a common look amongst celebrities and fashionistas alike. Originally sported by the likes of David Bowie, celebrities like Ellie Goulding, Alice Dellal, Amelle Berrebah and even Rhianna have sported this drastic look. This has obviously caused an increase in the amount of girls heading into salons to get an undercut like their favourite celebrities.

If you have thick wavy hair like Mel B, shaving a large part of her head has meant she’s lost a lot of weight in hair. Not all undercuts have to be drastic and brave; most girls opt for the more subtle small patch above the ear. This undercut can be covered by long locks by just moving the parting. Therefore, creating a more versatile hairstyle.

In the 90’s the traditional undercut was from the nape of the neck so the under half of the hair on girls (or boys) could be removed. Unless hair was put into a ponytail it went quite undetectable, a great way to lose some bulk if your hair is thick.

It’s a daring look but so on-trend, and works wonders for cutting the amount of styling and drying time in a morning!

The 50’s were an iconic era for hair styles. Curls were big and bold, standing off the head and holding their shape. For a long time, modern fashion hasn’t had the confidence to embrace such styles, preferring instead to continue the lasting popularity of simple, subtler styles. However, with the rising popularity of controversial stars like Lady GaGa, in-your-face fashion is back with a vengeance and is reflected in the increasingly wild hair styles that we are seeing on celebrities, catwalk models and even in high street salons.

One of the best modern icons for 50’s inspired hair is rockabilly singer Imelda May. Although a thoroughly modern artist, May embraces a retro fashion sense. She wears polka dots and prints as if she was born decades ago, and although she is certainly not the first celebrity to attempt a 50’s look, she is certainly one of the most successful. Her hair is worthy of particular note. The retro quiff she wears at her forehead is a difficult style to achieve, but if you want to imitate that particular 50’s style then there are certain styling tools you can use to do so.

To prepare your hair for styling, wash and dry and then run through with hair straighteners. You want a totally blank canvas, and straightening will remove all the kinks and natural curls from your hair so that you can begin to work from scratch. Then section off the area of hair at the top of your head nearest your forehead, as central as possible. This section should be around 6cm by 6cm, unless you want to opt for a smaller (or even larger!) quiff. Apply hair gel to a brush and then brush this section upwards, so that the hair gel is evenly distributed throughout. This gives you a long section of hair you can then curl inwards into the quiff, securing it in place with a strong pin. Spray hairspray to give it extra hold. It may take a few attempts, but if you can master this style you will certainly turn heads everywhere you go!
