Long Hair Styles Ideas For women

Spring is just around the bend and everybody’s excited for the anticipated leap forward, but more than that it’s telling us to shake off the winter blues. And what better way to do that than to smarten up your style with a new hairstyle.

Now you don’t really have to rush into a drastic change without consulting somebody in-the-know just to update your looks. Your hair cut and style or even your hair color is as important as when you go for a new wardrobe, so consult your hairdresser. They would be in the best position to advise you on what will look good with the type of hair you have, face shape and skin tone.

Spring hairstyles for women call for excellent cuts that show off soft layers and wispy fringes for easy and versatile hair styles. It’s the perfect time to bring out that soft feminine look to complement open necklines, flowing floral fabrics and silky smooth pastel makeup apt for the season.

Haircuts for Round Faces

Haircuts for Round Faces pictures There are a half a dozen, if not more, different face shapes that people can have and hundreds of different hairstyles for each shape. Here are a few tips on hairstyles for round face shapes—hopefully they can help one decide on the perfect do!

If one has a round face shape, the best tip one can have is to flaunt the bangs! A nice look would be to have one’s hair cut in a way that frames the face, giving it a thinner appearance. With hairstyles like that, it’s cute to have the bangs wisped to one side of the face to give it a more framed effect.

The client will want to avoid having bangs as long as their hair and constantly wearing the hair all pulled back into a bun or pony tail. These looks can be very unflattering to the face, giving it a more chubby appearance. We wear black because it’s slimming; we wear our hair to frame our face because it has the same effect.

Another cute hairstyle for someone with a round face is to keep the hair at a medium length with the ends flipped inward toward the face. Depending on the hairline, one can go with either side parted bangs or have them straight down just above your eyes. If the client is one of those people who don’t mind having the bangs in their eyes, go ahead and let them hang longer.

Long hair with loose curls is beautiful on people with round faces as well.

Celebrity Hairstyles: Anne Hathaway’s Retro Hairstyle

For this look, Anne has her hair combed smoothly beneath a black headband, and then teased for volume behind it (this all after blow-drying it straight, of course). It's exactly the same hairstyle worn by Liv Tyler in That Thing You Do!

With the silver drop earrings and heavy upper-eyelid liner, Anne Hathaway has a killer retro look.

A Goddess Braids Hairstyle – Hair Braiding

When it comes to choosing a hair weave that can add length to your hair, consider using goddess braids to create the look and length you desire. Goddess braids are a great option in which long hair extensions are applied to the hair and then braided into a warrior/goddess braid.

Goddess braids are a take off of traditional cornrow braids. They are basically oversized cornrows. To create a goddess braid hairstyle it is best to use synthetic hair instead of real hair as the goddess braid takes a significant amount of hair and would be cost prohibitive using real hair. To achieve the goddess braid, have your hairstylist begin by dividing your hair into sections and then take the first section and start to braid over handed. Your stylist will add new pieces of synthetic hair every so often to create the desired volume in the cornrow. Goddess braids are also a great way to not only add amazing volume to your hair but they also work to add amazing length. Because you are having your hair braided and adding lengths of synthetic hair every so often you can add the synthetic hair at the end of the braid to continue the length.

The key to goddess braids is to adopt the style and make it your own. There are many options you can adopt from the goddess braid look. You can pin the braid at the nape of the neck into a long loop. You can add beautiful flowers or sparkling jeweled hair pins. Experiment with different hair accessories to create and find the look that works best for you. Goddess hair braids are wonderful in that they can be dressed up with beautiful hair accessories or they can be dressed down depending on the look you want.

Goddess braids are a fun way to change your hairstyle. They are fun and funky, sleek and elegant. It all depends on your preference for styling them. Have fun with this look and make it your own.
