TotalBeauty.com recently ran an article on the top trends from the Fall fashion shows. One trend that caught our eye was this modern twist on the classic Flip hairstyle. The models weren’t the only ones bringing back the flip hairstyle, Jessica Simpson and Katie Holmes have tried their own take on the flip as well. What do you think? Should the flip make a comeback?

Another hair trend this fall is the Side Ponytails for Longer Hair:
A couple good products for this do: Alterna Caviar Smoothing Lotion and Rapid Repair Spray.
The other picture is of the extreme version of the side pony which is higher on the side of the head with straight, sleek shine.
Some effective products for this do would be Fudge’s Hair Shaper and Kevin Murphy’s Bodyguard Lotion.

Check out this great hair style featured on MopShots here.
Here is what the MopShots editors said about the cut:
“Smooth sleek style with great color added in for definition. This is a seriously sexy cut, which can work in a variety of ways and still provide that “come hither” look. The color highlights are stellar as well!” – Stevie Wilson
“This combination of colour and highlights is exactly what I want for this fall. It’s spicy & sweet!” – Rachel

3 Hair Ideas from Kevin Murphy
Tuesday, August 4th, 2009
A recent Elle Magazine piece featured the hair adventures of one reporter as she shed her long locks for a much shorter pixie-style haircut. While she claims that her snappy short cut cost her her boyfriend, she found the new short style to be highly admired by her women friends and even drawing a “Chic hair!” complement from one gay male acquaintance. In the author’s opinion, this perceived trade-off was more than worthwhile.
This kind of circumstantial evidence hardly proves the adage that men prefer women with long hair, but the saying has been long cited making us wonder if it is true? Of course, many celebrities, such as Rihanna above, sport a short pixie look to great acclaim. So, what do you think? Does going short for a woman come with romantic consequences? Or does this wives-tale belong on Snopes.com?

Balayage is an excellent option for transitioning your damaged blond to a light caramel brown fall hue. It’s all in the application & conditioning process mastered by your color professionals at Emerson. Give your ends a splash of gold & deep conditioning while fanning a warm brown through the routes as Gisele Bundchan has done for years, to create a crescendo of color that looks natural & rich. Top off your new color with some free flowing waves or smooth & sleek long layers. Our Caviar system is ideal for treating dry, sun-kissed locks post color.

One of Lancer’s recent style cuts for his client Tom was featured on MopShots as a great and well done cut. The shot above shows Tom’s cut taken from the side. You can see the entire feature on the MopShots profile.

Jordana’s Review on MopShots: “This fun, loose haircut is the perfect compliment to Tom’s big blue eyes. It doesn’t look too shaggy, or too groomed. The ideal Summer cut!”

There is nothing I like more than to browse peoples amazing hairstyles, which is one reason why I really love the site Mopshots. Here are 2 of my recent favorite hairstyle ideas.
“This long flirty cut works so well on Kelsey. The layers, curls and waves compliment the color while the side swept bangs emphasize her eyes. There’s a lot of dimension and movement with her hair. It’s hard not to keep looking at this great style, cut and color!” (from mopshots)
“Jamie has the whole look working for her. Her hairstyle and the flipped out layers go perfectly with her retro ensemble. Some say blondes should not wear yellow, but I disagree. I actually think it’s a perfect pairing, and this is a great example!” (from mopshots)

A lot of my clients have been asking me this question lately. Bangs are the hot hair trend this season, but they’re not for everyone. Here are some things to consider if you think you want bangs.
First, consider your cowlicks, hair texture and growth pattern. If you have significant cowlicks, or curl to your hair, you will be constantly fighting them. However, a good blow dry with the right brush can make it easy; ask your stylist to show you how. Also, think about whether you want to spend the extra time in the morning styling your bangs.
Next, consider the shape of your face. Bangs come in many different styles. Certain shapes and lengths of bangs can flatter one face shape but accentuate flaws on another. Your stylist should be able to make recommendations as to what would best suit your face shape.
Longer, blunt bangs are more flattering on oval, heart shaped, or long face shapes.
