Ombre Hair

Does it look like you might need to touch up your roots?  Perhaps it is just the sexy new hair style trend that has surfaced this fall called the Ombre.  
Actress Drew Barrymore rocked the scene with it and the new style seemed to take off.


The Ombre basically looks like you are due for a color touch up but in a good way. The roots are dark and long, and the highlights pick up at your cheekbone.  

Having dark roots is turning out to be a huge trend this winter… probably because…
  • 1) It is a low-maintenance hair color technique. It is a fairly easy hair color to keep up.
  • 2) It is an anti-aging hair color trick. Remember when you’d get sun in the summer as a kid your hair would lighten drastically, then by winter you’d have the Ombre look naturally.  The Ombre reminds us of that youthful look.
  • 3) Ombre is an easy transitional color trend if you are trying to grow out your roots. Even though the style is done “on purpose”, it can be a great way to outgrow your color.
  • 4) Ombre is just fun and trendy… need we say more?

So... if you are thinking about a blonde hairstyle but have feared it wouldn’t be right for your complexion, Ombre hair might be a nice compromise.  Keep your natural color closer to your face and transition as light as you dare at your ends.

Remember… trying this at home might not give you the desired results you want, but done right it could be very flattering.

The Ombre… what do you think?  Are you digging the look?

 The Faux Hawk hair style is inspired by the more extreme mohawk, but has a funky new look that is great for both men and women.  It is a style that is best worn by someone with thick hair that is straight or slightly wavy.  The Faux Hawk is done by trimming the sides relatively short, leaving more length in the center to create a peak. 

How to style a Faux Hawk
  • Dry your hair really good.  This helps the gel hair product to hold a little better.
  • Apply a generous amount of strong hold hair gel forming the hair as the product dries.
  • Use your hands to mold the hair on top of your head to a peak.
  • Spray the finished style with hair spray to keep it from falling flat.
