Which Hairstyling Product Should MEN Use?

Some guys don’t give a ton of extraneous thought to their hair—that is, beyond washing it each day and wondering if/when/where it’s going to start falling out. If that’s you, then updating your hairstyle to sync with the season or to project a new image probably seems like a lot more hassle than it’s worth. Trust us, we feel you on that. But whether you’ve been using the same gel or mousse since you were in high school—or have never put anything in your hair at all—it’s a lot easier than you might think to switch up your look simply by switching up your product
– *Hair Gel: Use it if you have short to medium hair, you can go for a “wet” look with gel
*Pomade: If you want a hold that’s a little bit more pliable It’s great for that “behead” look.
*Mousse: Guys with longer hair should consider using mousse. It’ll give you more control and definition than using nothing at all , but your hair can still move naturally.
* Hair Spray: To max out the hold on longer hair, use hair spray. It will control frizz and flyaway’s without making your hair feel sticky.

Blonde Hair Tips & Tricks

Most adult women with blonde hair are actually not naturally blonde. As we age our hair tends to darken to at least dishwater — or dirty — blonde. The main exception, of course, are some Scandinavian blondes, who start out super blonde as kids and stay some true version of blonde until old age. Yet blonde hair remains the most popular hair color in America and around the world . If you’re considering taking the plunge and going blonde, make sure you’ll look good as a blonde. Here’s how to tell if you will. Your Skin & Eye Color Matters Most women will look good in some shade of blonde. But not every woman will look like a natural blonde. Kim Kardashian, for example, can go blonde as she does here in this picture, but you’d never wonder to yourself, “Is she naturally blonde?”

What is a bouffant?

Not everything about the coming year is focused on the modern and effortless. Pay homage to the 1960s with playful bouffant styles that will have you relishing in nostalgia for a time when big hair and bigger eyelashes were the look of choice. After the break, the best 1960s inspired hairstyles to try in 2013. What is a bouffant? A bouffant hairstyle translates to a big hairstyle. To get this hairstyle the hair is teased leaving the crown of the hair looking really full or volumized. Today, bouffant hairstyles come in a variety of shapes and sizes but the effect remains the same: they exude confidence and class. On the runway for spring 2013 we’ve seen a number of key shows indulge in elegant, retro-inspired bouffants – most of them include a deep side part and plenty of volume. Make sure there is enough texture and support in the hair to make the style hold. In this example we’ve kept the texture just enough to add volume but not so much to make the style messy. For night time, or to really add to the sixties sex kitten feel of the look you can add even more texture.To keep the texture in place use a volumising mousse. Separate the hair into sections and curl it, away from the face, using either a curling iron or hot rollers. On Rhiannon’s hair a ghd hair iron was used to create curls throughout the hair.Brush the curls out to break them up and give them a softer, more natural look. Separate out a circular section of hair at the top of the crown. You can use a mirror to see the back of your head if creating the style on yourself.Next, divide the section into smaller partings. These will be back-combed, starting at the back so it’s easier to build up volume and height.Hold the very back parting with medium tension and with a comb work the root area only. Back-combing, if done right, shouldn’t cause too much damage to your hair and shouldn’t knot. Tip: work the comb about an inch away from scalp, put comb in and work in curved movements down to root area, take comb out of root area and repeat. Follow the same back-combing process with each of the partings of hair.After all the back-combing is completed your hair should look something like this. Don’t worry if it’s messy at this stage – only a few more steps until you have a sixties Brigitte Bardot bouffant hairdo. Softly brush the very top layer of hair back, smoothing it over the back-combed section. Work your bouffant shape into the desired height and roundness, then pull back the hair and pin it in the centre with bobby pins to hold it in place. To add polish to your sixties Brigitte Bardot hairstyle bring two more smaller side sections of hair into the style. Pin the two side sections in place. Tip: lightly twist each side into the centre as you do this to help create balance and a smoother finish.Spray the hair lightly all over with a firm hold hairspray to finish.And that’s it: you now have a simple to complete, subtle take on 60s sex kitten hair.While this is a modern take, you can make the style more extreme and more authentically Brigitte Bardot by exaggerating the curls and the back combed texture even more.Should you have any further questions on how to or would like to comment on the hair style feel free to leave us a comment on facebook or email us eliegante.cominfo@eliegante.com

Fashion Week

Runways While fashion week is about fantasy and illusion, the most captivating trends from the fall shows emphasized wearable texture, natural ease and feminine approachability. From polished ponytails to unfussy strands left free around the shoulders, hairstylists offered up plenty of inspirational  and achievable  ideas that float from the runway to the real world surprisingly well. Precise Pony The ponytail always plays a part in fashion week and this season it was all about concise, perfectly pulled-back looks.

Haircuts

Great haircut are a good investment. A good shape makes it easier for you to style your hair between trims. Remember that keeping your bangs trim will keep your haircut looking fresh for a very long time. At Eliegante Hair Design & Spa and most hairdressers will be happy to cut Guest’s’ bangs for no charge any time. If that’s not the case, you can cut your own bangs or slither off. Ask me or your stylists when you’re in the salon next time .When cutting bangs, always follow the line your presently have.
