Most of the girls or women that have curly hair opt for a Japanese Straightening because they dream of having long straight hair. They don’t realize that curly hair looks even more beautiful than just plain old straight hair. I think this happens because they don’t know the appropriate hair cut styles to use and wear hair cuts that just don’t work for them.

Choosing a hair style that fits your face, hair density, hair color, volume, texture, and other features requires a lot of time and consideration. Also you must have in mind the amount of time you have to spend on the mornings to your hair style before you go out of your house. Many hairdressers can give you a complicated look and when you step out of the hair salon you feel like a million dollars, but the next morning when you have to replicate the hair do, you’re doomed.

Having a short hair cut for curly hair can be difficult on some women because when you have curly hair and your hair is short, the curls tend to curl even more, causing your hair style to look kind of funny. Nevertheless, there are hair cuts that work for short curly styles.

It’s all a matter of sitting down with your hairstylist and tell him what you want, the time you have and ask him what’s best for you. I personally prefer a long hair style with curly hair because it has a more exotic mood to it, but if you still want that short hair then think something like Charlize Theron.

Many men love this color on women because it’s exotic and beautiful. It reminds them of their inner primitive thoughts and they go crazy. But for this to be accomplished you have to take good care of your hair.

There are many black hair products out there if you want to dye it this color. Make sure you get the one that best works for your hair type. You should also consider your hair cut style if you want to go all black, because not everyone can dye their hair black and use any hair cut they want.

You also would want to watch the color of your skin. If you are pale white and you dye your hair dark black you will have a more Goth look to your style. If you have somewhat a little bit darker skin, then you would have a more tropical exotic look. And if you are very dark I wouldn’t recommend you to go with black hair. If you have noticed in the entertainment industry and modeling world, these modern days darker women have lighter hair. Like Tyra Banks for example, she uses red hair instead of black.

That old saying in which “Blondes have more fun” couldn’t be further from the truth. Black hair is more exotic and primitive, that awakens a primitive sense inside men that just makes them go crazy about women with black hair. I think the only way to see who has more fun than the other is putting the saying to the test.

every time I try and put it in a Mohawk it flops, any tips on it?

                                                                                                         Morgan

A: A lot of work is required for a big long Mohawk to stand up straight, especially if you’re 11 years old. Youthful hair is generally softer and silkier, thus being more difficult to make it stand up as a Mohawk if it’s long. Also, being a kid trying to get a Mohawk, I will assume that you won’t shave the rest of your hair, but maintaining all of it while making the middle strip stand up. This is called a Mohawk Fauxhawk, or simply Fauxhawk.

It’s relatively easier to achieve than a normal Mohawk but still needs its work.

You first want to imagine the Fauxhawk on your head, so pull up your hair and imagine how it would look like when it’s done; you have to visualize it. Here is were you have to decide, whether to keep your hair longer all around or trim it a little bit to achieve the fashionable look of a Fauxhawk.

A perfect Fauxhawk is done by cutting the sides of the middle strip a little to make it shorter and let the middle pop out, then you just have to apply a lot of hairspray and immediately bow-dry the section in which you applied the hairspray. This will make your hair dry up quickly and stick out in a very spiky manner. David Beckham uses this style a lot so you may know how it looks like.

If you want to keep all of your hair long then you’re going to have to apply even more hairspray on you hair and last longer blow-drying it. If you want to make it strong try using gel before applying any hairspray and while your hair isn’t wet or damp. Then dry your hair after applying the gel.

If you really want a punk Mohawk send me another email and I will dedicate another posting to it. Thank you.

I mean, who doesn’t know what a Mohawk is? Or having Spiked hair? Or having crazy colored hair? All those hair cuts define punk for many people. Of course, for people that don’t really know much about punk. For someone that belongs to the punk world those cuts are kinder garden cuts. And if you want to impress some punk guys or I don’t know what you want to do, but if you want a hair cut style that will with out a doubt make an impression then you will need good punk hair ideas.

For these types of hair dos I have no names so I will create a name for them. If you happen to know the real name for these hair cut styles or more details about them, email me at diamond@my-hairstyles.com and I will make a whole new article about it with your name on the bottom.

Intense Dreadlocks

Dreadlocks are no longer only for Rasta or African dudes. Punk girls and guys use them also! But with a very unique twist to it. They dye it really intense colors, like green, red or orange. I have seen them in those colors but I think they also work with other colors. I currently don’t have a section of how-to so we will have to wait a bit for tips on how to make dreadlocks.

Devil Look

This is a hair look that all of you may be familiarized with because the lead singer from The Prodigy uses it in his video Firestarter. I have seen other versions of this cut but it consists of the same basis. Two small Mohawks on the upper sides of you head.

Crazed Cut

I really don’t know how this one works, but I have seen it many times, especially on women. Have normal hair but with shaved parts of it. It can be a whole half of your head or 1/3s of it, what you want. Then leave a long piece of hair untouched and throw it to the other side of you head, and also leave some other parts untouched and let those fall down. Dye it how you want but not totally. It was something like that.

What I really think of punk hair cuts is that every person defines them, and a formula doesn’t exist, as I have said before, that will make a hair cut work for everyone. It is all about individuality and wearing you hair style with confidence.

My hair has become flat and I have many little hairs sticking out of my head. It’s very disperse. What can I do to stop that?

A: To prevent getting disperse hair try giving you hair some body by using a volumizing shampoo. A moisturizing conditioner also helps. If your hair still behaves bad, think about applying some anti-frizz product to control you’re the crazy hairs.

You were probably using a product to make your hair color last more. This causes some changes in your hair molecules and oils making them heavy and flat. Another tip to counter flatness could be to raise your hair at the scalp with a comb as you dry it to create root lifting.

Do you already have your prom date? I bet you want to impress him and everyone else at the prom with your beauty. You will need a spectacular hair cut style to make everyone’s jaw open. You can look like a celebrity, diva or goddess but only if you have a breathtaking hair do. Don’t worry though because with the right prom hair ideas you will definitely be the prom queen there!

I tell many girls that it isn’t about getting Jennifer Aniston’s hair cut, or Katherine Zeta Jones’ make-up, etc. It’s about wearing what makes you feel like Troy’s Helen. It’s about letting your natural beauty emerge from your inside. Of course, if having Jennifer’s and Katherine’s hair style, dress or whatever makes you feel like that, then by all means do so!

Don’t ever feel that you’re not beautiful enough to wear a specific hair style because that’s pure nonsense! If you do, go to a hair salon and ask any hair dresser, they’ll back me up. You do need to keep in mind tough, that not all hair dos work for everyone. Shape, color, type and length are very important factors that may be responsible to make you look like an angel or like a street bum. I’m pretty sure you’re aiming to look like an angel.

If you have long hair, try straightening it a bit more with a hair straightening iron. That will make it look longer and shinier as well as vivacious. If you have curly hair, do the same but with a hair curling iron. If you don’t have a hair iron the closest hair salon to you will most certainly do so don’t worry about that.

A prom hair updo is another great way to make an impression. They always look elegant and sexy at the same time. You will have be a little bit more careful with your hair, but it will be worth it!

Those lucky rascals! Adults can’t use those because if not, well they would look very childish and generally no one would really listen to a childish adult when they are proposing something. That is the advantage kids have with their hair, plus their hair is always younger and stronger, so they can do virtually anything with it and it won’t damage.

Haven’t you ever tried to mess up a kid’s hair? It always turns back to the original form doesn’t it? Kind of magical really…

Anyhow, children have two characteristic kids hair styles that almost everyone has had in the past: mushroom cut and spiked hair style. That’s normally for the boys, and for the girls it’s almost always short hair not lower to the shoulders or really short hair. That is why when we women grow up some of us love to wear our hair long and lively.

There are also girls that their moms have trimmed their hair completely like a boy. I am strongly against this because it could cause permanent damage to the hair, because while the hair is young it is adapting itself and for a girl it is important it gets shaped to growing downward. The only way this is possible is by letting the hair grow and let gravity do the rest while they are still girls.

I have seen cases in which grown up women have frizzed hair and when I ask if they had trimmed their hair completely at some point in their life, they almost always tell me when they were little girls their moms had it trimmed down. This may not apply to some girls because not all hair types are the same, but I would still avoid trimming their beautiful hair.

Boys don’t have to worry much about that but it is still important to look after heir hair with the right hair care.

A:Unless your brush has its teeth spaced widely, I would recommend you to avoid brushing your hair when coming out of a shower. This is so because conventional combs have their brushes too close to each other. This causes pressure to the hair when passed through them. Wet hair is generally more fragile than it is when it’s dry, so when you pass your comb through your damp hair it snaps.

If you want to untangle your crazy hair you’re better off combing your hair with a wide-tooth comb and pass it a several times more. Unless of course, if you don’t mind loosing a few hairs then it’s ok, it’s not like you’re going to go bald or something. If you do then you should really consider going to a doctor near you immediately.

Without it I couldn’t imagine all the different hair styles we would loose. Everybody uses them. Its almost as important as the hair blow-dryer in terms of innovations to the hair fashion industry. If you have noticed, almost every single TV commercial on hair coloring products feature a woman with beautiful dream-like long, silky hair. Well that can only be accomplished with the help of hair straightening irons.

Now a day there are so many types of irons I can’t name them all! But most people use Conair straightening irons, Sedu straighteners, GHD hair straighteners or Solia straighteners. Not that I’m saying that the rest don’t work, they are simply the names I can remember right now, and believe me there a thousands! But you would think that these irons are made of… well, IRON! But they’re not! You see, iron isn’t the healthiest way to bring heat to your hair.

Most conventional hair straighteners are made out of ceramic plates which act very well and don’t produce damage to your hair cut unless you use it wrongly. Some brands use aluminum, although it isn’t as effective as ceramic and they could cause some damage to hair. The higher quality hair straighteners use ceramic tourmaline plates.

Professional hair salons use ceramic and tourmaline irons since they work best and damage your hair less. Although they won’t damage it, they ironing your hair can cause split ends and reduce the thickness of your hair, as well as produce dryness. But that can be very well countered using a professional conditioner.

But don’t think too much on which straightener to buy, all you have to have clear is how much money are you willing to spend, since prices very a lot from types of irons to brands and even length of the plates.

Ever wondered about which women wear short hair? If you look hard enough, you’ll notice that most successful women have short hair cuts. Take a look at your boss if she’s a woman, or at successful business women, even famous celebrities!

Take a look at Michelle Pfeiffer, Shirley Manson, Marilyn Monroe, Madonna, Audrey Hepburn; and those are just to name some, there are many many more. What do, or did, all of those celebrities portray? Beauty, professionalism, confidence, glamour, distinct personalities, and a whole lot more. And a very specific characteristic everyone relates to them is… yeahp you guessed it, short hair cuts!

So then you see that having short hair isn’t going to take away your feminine glory, or going to make you look like a boy if you’re thinking that. Short hair dos are very professional and easy to wear. Some men love women with short hair, and some just adore them because it makes them look so cute.

Short hair cut styles are the cutest dos women can have by excellence, because it makes them look younger. So if you’re looking to take away some years off you back, then short hair cuts are a great way to do so. If not, there are also other different hair styles for short hair that will make you look kinky, sexy, hot, etc. your imagination is the limit.

Just tell your hairdresser what you would like to portray and he or she will most likely know what to do. Taking a picture with you will help a lot. One of my favorite styles for short hair is making it look spiky and fresh.
