NY Fashion Week Spring 2011 Hair Trends part 2

 

 

 

Spring Trend # 2: Messy Waves. 
So hot for spring! So easy and care free! Unlike the huge volume in the last post, this style can be taken right off the runway and put into real every day hair.

How to:
If you have straight hair, use a texturizing spray and wrap random uneven sections around a curling iron. Next, rough up the curls with fingers & spray a stronger hold hair spray or spray wax over your hair.
If you have wavy or curly hair, this style is a breeze! If you're starting from wet hair, add a texturizing cream, scrunch it into your hair, twist small pieces into buns if you want more definition & allow to dry. Add a medium - firm hold hairspray or spray wax all over and scrunch and separate some of your curls.

Tip: (for both straight & wavy hair) The more you rough up with your fingers ad layer with spray, the more

So I've decided to spread these trends over a couple post so check back every day for a new trend / tip :)

Spring Trend # 1: Volume. Lots of it.
Yes okay.  I do realise volume is always in. Most people don't like flat hair, if you enjoy little to no body this will be a trend you want to skip.  The first two photos are on the more extreme side of volume however the last photo is a little more realistic for everyday.  Volume adds that fullness & that oomph to your hair that it wouldn't naturally have.  If you have or are wearing your hair wavy you can back comb your hair a little fuller & a little more on the sides to widen it.  If your wearing your hair on the straight I would avoid excessive volume as the hair just hangs straight down & will look mop-like.

 This one is a little much but I LOVE how much body and movement the hair has.

This is more of a realistic everyday look. I like this look because it looks like she's put effort into her hair but hasn't spent hours in the salon to achieve this look.
