Fashion 2011

I am an instructor at Taylor Andrews Hair Academy and one of the classes I taught this last week was the Fashion Trends for 2011. Thought I would share the good news!

From the edgy styles, to the elegant night on the town, to just roaming around the house there is a 2011 style for you..

if your like me and live on the wild side of the hair spectrum this style will be for you..

RED! Red is huge this year,if your wanting to stand out you will go red. Even if you just put in a splash of red.

Your elegant night on the town will consist of a loose up-do.

Volume is still in.. and will always be in.

Sleek and Shiny with hair close to the nape are going to be a huge part of this years spring/ summer look along with the "new head band" which consist of winding rolled scarfs over your hair. Low pony's and knotted buns are also going to be showing themselves this year.

Extreme side parts.

BRAIDS. Let just talk about how big braids are. They were pretty big last year and from what the New York Fashion show runways looked like they are going to be even bigger this year. (too bad my hair isnt long enough to really braid :( )

Ok enough about the styles.. let talk my favorite thing as a stylist.. COLOR

Dimension is in. If you are an all over one color, consider highlights, or panels, or anything to add dimension to your hair. Its going to give you more movement, and fun!

IF your a blonde, try the more natural approach. Your going to want to add some gold tones, or a neutral tone to your hair.

IF your a burnette your going to want a deep and rich color with a few low lights, or a splash of color like red, or a blonde panel to add dimension. This look is going to suit all ages!

IF your more a red head kindof gal your going to want to make sure you tell your stylist to mix the right amount of a bright red with a deep rich red also, to make a bold point.

Well now you have it! if you are looking to do any of these trends and dont have a stylist yet, let me know I would be happy to help you! if you have been looking for a change then consider any of these looks..

(and if you love your hair just the way it is, dont change it.. i am a BRIGHT blonde all over with a splash of red through my bangs.. i am not your natural looking blonde.. but i am confident about my hair, and have at least the red going for me :) )
