Fancy a shave?


Found this interesting print ad for a Montreal hair salong, Orbite, on:http://szymon.tumblr.com/

Oh, and also some fruit-shaped sticky notes =)

Hair Trend Forecast: Pump up the Volume

In light of this season's (AW 2008) sleek, sophisticated looks, I think the next big thing will be VOLUME. As outrageous or uncannily weird as it might seem, the fashion and hair industry does have its slumps and booms as well...only possibly, in the sense of fabulous hair.

Currently on the streets, loose and pretty locks are in at the moment, especially with more 'casual' straight-cut fringes (- haha, not the bowl cut) that remind me of the days in primary school...Not saying they don't look hot, but yes, they do make you look a decade or two younger, unless a fringe is definitely for your face (you'll have to look at your face shape for that one).

But with runway looks all round, we can see a change from the 'clean' structured styles to the 'messy' structured styles - often being more voluminous cuts which make a statement. However, the bad news is yes, it is quite a difficult trend to work - you'll need to manage quite extremely-layered hair (the easiest option to create volume from thick hair) and/or maintain regularly, or otherwise you may risk the chance of getting a bird's nest of hair.

Alternatively, from what I've gathered, the best thing with this trend is that you could seriously walk out the door of your bedroom (with bed-hair), chuck on a thin headband (e.g. a ribbon) or braid it with a slight bouffant, pin loose strands, & voila! - statement hair.

Let's just say that hair trends can be quite unpredictable, so yes, this prediction is a mere speculation - so I don't really care if you agree with me or not...because I'm definitely NOT going full-blown with this trend *haha*.
