Celebrity Haircut: 5 Top Celebrity Haircut Tips

By John Williams

Most of us choose a haircut because it looks hot on someone else – usually a celebrity who can afford to have his or her hair done every day. Rarely do we understand the anatomy dynamics of a hair style, and too few people who cut hair professionally know the art and science of how to frame the face with hair in a flattering way, based on individual face shape and bone structure. But the more you pay attention to the way the hair works with the rest of your head, the better your cut will look.

Think about the last time you picked out a hat to buy, or a pair of sunglasses. You probably tried on lots of styles and colors until one of them clicked. You may not know why it looked right, but you just had an intuition or a feeling that it was the best for you. Haircuts should be chosen the same way. Problem is, we can’t try them on and off like we do cheap sunglasses or caps. But we can learn a few basics about anatomy and the visual effects of hair around the face, to help you decide.

Here are five tips to help you get started on the path of looking at your haircut as part of your greater physical appearance and unique identity, instead of an off-the-shelf item you pick out because it fits somebody else.

1) Ears – in or out?

If you like your ears, then show the world. But if you have ears that you think stick out too much, don’t accentuate the look by having a close cut. Tell your stylist to leave your hair thick behind the ears, down toward the level of the jaw line or earlobe. This will create the illusion that your ears are closer to your head. If you have shorter hair, but you keep it sufficiently thick, you can just comb it back behind the ears (so it wraps around the way the ends of eyeglasses do) and suddenly your ears look perfect.

2) Does long hair shorten your neck? Hide your pretty face?

Long hair is feminine and fabulous, but if you have long hair, you also have tons of sexy options. You can cut it in layers around your face, to frame your face with playful curls or waves. Or you can cut it at various lengths all over, to add texture and depth.

By cutting long hair in such a way that it no longer hangs around your face like a veil, you can often accentuate your face more. Cut layers and you can boost the volume - add some contrasting low or high lights and you can pump up the texture.

Sometimes, depending on your body shape and size, covering the neckline with hair can make you look shorter and can make your neck look compressed (like a football player). To get the opposite look, experiment with leaving hair away from the sides of your face, so that it doesn’t cover and hide your jaw line, cheeks, and neck. This can flatter the face, and if you are blessed with a lovely neck, this kind of cut makes you look taller and more elegant.

3) Men and balding:

Lots of men go to great lengths (no pun intended) to fight the fact that their natural allotment of hair doesn’t cover the entire real estate of their head. But some have figured out that shaving it all off is a simple way to win the receding hairline game. Shave it off for a youthful and masculine look, if you like the shape of your head and can handle parting with those few strands that are holding on for dear life. Many guys are doing it themselves and keeping it cue ball slick by using the new kinds of “headblade” razors that fit over your finger like a ring and are more comfortable for shaving the head.

4) Bangs can add a sharp look to a high forehead.

If you have a high waist, then you probably buy jeans that are cut and designed to make your figure look better. If you have a high forehead, why not do the same thing? Straight-across bangs that fall down over the eyebrows are not only sexy, they can help you change the way your face looks and give it a more angular appearance.

5) Color: It’s not just hair color.

One inside secret that the best colorists know is that the color of your hair can help to determine the color of your skin. Yeah, we all know that it’s popular to go dark for winter and then beach blonde for summer, but the trend has purpose. If you have very fair skin, and you choose a very light hair color – light blonde for instance – it can make your whole face look washed-out and pale (too much light on light going on). If you add a little contrast, it not only frames your face nicely; it can add color when you are waiting for summer to arrive. When the tropical skin tone returns, you can go as light as you want, for the same contrasting effect.

Discuss how cuts will shape your face with your stylist – they will appreciate the fact that you have some insight into how it all works. Then pick a cut that flatters your face, and don’t forget to smile while the world tries to figure out “what is it about her new haircut that looks so fantastic?”

Celebrity Haircut: 5 Haircare Tips for Spring

So you’ve got that perfect celebrity haircut that suits you and your personality. The next question would be: how do you properly take care of your hair so you won’t have to worry about going back to the salon sooner than your next expected visit? Here are few simple hair care tips for keeping that mane attraction from becoming a main distraction.

1. KEEP YOUR HAIR CLEAN. Comb the tangles out of your hair before you wet it so the hair will wash easily and the tangles will not worsen. Then wet your hair thoroughly under the shower. You can use either warm or cold water if you like, but for the best results, you can wet your hair with warm water to open the scale like cuticles of the hair and wash all the oil and dirt off. You can then rinse your hair with cold water afterwards to close the cuticles and add to the shine of your hair.

2. DILUTE SHAMPOO WITH WATER BEFORE APPLYING TO YOUR HAIR. Take note that you should put the shampoo on your scalp and not on the ends of your hair, as the shampoo will dry your hair’s ends and cause them to weaken and split. Also, do not “mix” your hair all over your head as you shampoo because it will get tangled. After this, rinse the shampoo off.

3. AIR DRY. Give your hair a much needed and let it air dry naturally. The first step for air drying is to use hair products for air drying instead of blow drying; a good absorbent towel is also a plus. An absorbent towel will suck up excess moisture and speed up drying time. A good leave-on conditioner will keep your hair from becoming frizzy. Use the absorbent towel to remove excess moisture then gently blot your hair dry. Do not rub your hair. Rubbing will damage the strands, and cause frizzy hair and split ends. You want to keep the hair shafts as smooth as possible.


4. CHANGE YOUR NATURAL PARTING every three months to avoid the thinning of that portion. Though there is not necessarily a good or a bay way to part you hair, what matters most is that you are comfortable and confident with the style you choose.


5. IF YOU HAVE UNDUE HAIR LOSS, DANDRUFF, or any other persistent hair-related problem, check with your doctor to see if you have a hormonal imbalance, scalp infection, disease, or are suffering from physical, emotional or environmental stress. Then follow the course of treatment the doctor prescribes.

10 Simple Tips on How to Take Care of Color Treated Hair

Properly handling your color treated hair will result in healthy looking, manageable tresses. Each time you apply permanent or semi-permanent color, you subject your mane to a chemical process.

So follow these few simple steps, that will help you to restore a healthy shine and manageability hairstyle.

1. Trim your hair every four to six weeks to remove split ends and make your hair more manageable. A good haircut is the best foundation for the rest of the steps


2. Use a shampoo specially formulated for color treated hair, and if you must wash everyday, shampoo only once. When you shampoo, avoid tugging your hair, and wash gently. Rinse thoroughly to remove all traces of shampoo.

3. Use conditioner for color treated hair each time you shampoo, and apply a little extra to the ends. Rinse thoroughly. Removing all traces of shampoo and conditioner minimize any film that attracts dirt, hides hair's natural shine, and makes hair less manageable.

5. Blow dry your hair when it's almost dry. The more heat you apply, the more damange you inflict to the cuticle. Dry with your fingers instead of a brush until the very end of the drying process.

6. Use wide-tooth comb to detangle your hair with minimal breakage.

7. Avoid curling irons and hot rollers. Style your hair with a brush and blow dryer.


8. If you have long hair, use hair accessories instead of rubber bands.

9. Avoid chlorine, and when you do swim, wash the chlorine out of your hair immediately.


10. Use a temporary rinse in between colorings to extend the life of each permanent or semi-permanent color application.

Year 2009 is just at the corner, if you are someone who would like to have a new haircut in coming year. Here's a quick guide of what celebrity haircuts to look for for five different face shapes.

Oval Face Shape
This is considered the ideal face shape by hair experts. You suit virtually any hairstyle, whether it is long, medium or short. Regardless of how long your hiar is, you'll look best with layers near your cheekbones, lips or chin. Basically whichever feature you want to highlight. Short or long styles will look best when brushed or held back from your face otherwise you'll cover your face shape behind the hair. Long side swept bangs are ideal as they can be worn to the side, parted in the middle or sprayed back.

Long Face Shape
Some others called Oblong face shape. Whatever it's call, hairstyles for this long face shape should add width and fullness to the sides of the face and around the eyes, ears and cheekbones. If you have straight length asymmetric haircuts also look great on this face shape as they create the illusion of width. Likewise, curly or wavy styles can give the illusion of balanced width. Your best hair length is halfway down the neck. If you do opt for longer hair, it's advisable to cut in a few longer layers, especially the length is mainly at the back.

Celebrity like Sarah Jessica Parker, Ashlee Simpson, Giselle Bundchen and Sandra Oh are in this long face shape.

Ashlee Simpson's long Straight haircut

Round Face Shape
The goal here is to get a hairstyle that makes the face look slimmer. Long hairstyles should be worn with a face lengthening centre parting. For hair above the chin, wear an off centre parting to brek up the roundness of the face. Soft, graduated layers are flattering because they make your face appear slimmer and tend to remove bulk and weight from the sides. Creating volume at the top of your head and keeping your forehead bare will also slim your face. Bangs should be long or side-swept. In short styles, keep hair away from your face and create extra volume at the top of the head to narrow the roundness of your features. Razored ended can also create a look of lightness.

Celebrity like Kate Bosworth, Cameron Diaz, Kirsten Dunst are all in this category.

Square Face Shape
If you have a square face, you'll want to soften the sharp angle of your jaw. Hairstyles that emphasis the cheekbones are the most flattering, go for short layers worn forward onto the cheekbones. Medium to long haircut can help reduce and soften the squareness of the jaw while hair turned under at teh bottom will narrow the width of the jaw. Curly and wavy hairstyles soften a square face as they round off the angles of the face. You can also get away with short spiky cut and long, sleek haircut.

Celebrity like Gwyneth Paltrow, Demi Moore, Mandy Moore, Rosario Dawson are all fall into this category.
