BEFORE YOU GET A CUT

Image
ASK JUDAYSIA... Dear Judaysia, I want to get my haircut, but I do not know how to communicate with my stylist. Can you help me? Annie from Ohio. Dear Annie, Talk to your stylist about what you like and don't like about your hair and how it frames your face. Show, don't tell. Bring photos of a style you like. Tell your stylist what you can do. Can you blow dry, use rollers, do you like products in your hair? Instead of going for a drastic change, take gradual steps over three cuts. Make sure you feel comfortable with your stylist and that she is listening to you.

THE NEW BRUNETTE

Image
GOING BRUNETTE Celebrity inspiration and professional innovation has seen the brunette reborn as an edgy, sought-after shade.Brunettes are finally getting their time in the spotlight. Style icons Audrey Hepburn and Jackie Onassis personified the brunettes classic elegance. TO GET THE LOOK Shade layering techniques once reserved for blonde hair give brunettes a natural shaded look. You can have multi dimensional hair as a brunette, just as you can for a blonde. A good brunette is not flat, it is rich and has depth. There are so many tones to dark hair. There are neutral cool and warm colours that go through brunettes. It does not have to be a flat colour at all. Perfect colour translates to thin high and low lights in multiple shades. They can be bold and seductive as well as soft and sassy. Gorgeous hair never looks as if it has been dyed.

HEAD TURNERS

BANDS OF BEAUTY Dress up a simple look with the addition of head bands. A simple strip adds casual charm. Multiple skinny head bands add a touch of glamour to a simple updo.

THE POSH PONY

SIMPLICITY IS THE ULTIMATE SOPHISTICATION There can be nothing more sophisticated than the humble ponytail. Worn high,low, messy or smooth with a spritz of Judaysia VS Shaper Spray, ponytails are the perfect compliment to this season's luxurious looks. A ponytail is a great way to look pulled together. A ponytail can dress up your outfit in a way that is still luxurious. It can make something that looks too sexy more sophisticated and chic.

CHANEL HAIR FALL 2007-8

JUDAYSIA LOVES.... The beautiful hair from the Chanel Paris Monte Carlo Fall Winter 2007-8 Collection. Created by Ms. Odile Gilbert, who has switched the spotlight this season, focusing on dressing up simple looks with luxurious accessories. The hair has a simplicity to it even though it may look complicated. The tresses have been swept away from the face, tied in a knot or twisted into a neat chignon in the back.The Chanel hair bands gracefully add romance to the simple hair. TO GET THE LOOK... Hairpieces are a big plus here. They can literally do all of the work.If your own hair is long enough you can wrap or twist a braid through your chignon to enhance your look. You will need hair pins, long and short to secure your hair in place. If you have the brow skimming heavy fringe show it off. Give your hair the runway look by adding a wide hair band. Book an appointment with your hairdresser for a styling lesson.

WEARING THE TRENDS

SEXY LAYERED BOBS Layering can create fullness and add dramatic movement to a bob. The style on the left has the weight of the haircut at the bottom along with a full heavy fringe. The style on the right has the weight at the top giving it height and volume. The eyes are also accented by a full heavy fringe. Each haircut can be cut with the scissor or razor depending on the hair texture. Both are great for fine, straight hair. To get the look at the right spray Judaysia Thic on to towel dryed hair. Use a big round boar brush to flick up the ends. Roll the top under and the fringe toward the face. Set dry hair with large velcro rollers on top. Spray rollers with Judaysia VS Shaper Spray or any shaping spray. Never use a wet hairspray, it will undo all of your work and make the hair sticky. Heat the rollers up with your blow dryer and let them cool. Take them out and shape your hair with your fingers. Give it another spray with your Shaper. The look on the left can be achieved by apply...

PLATINUM BLONDE BOB Chin length bob. Lots of layers. This is from the cover of the Russian Vogue. The cut really acentuates the eyes,lips, and jawline. Although there are choppy layers a weight line is still very visible at the bottom of the cut. The brow skimming fringe is cut all the way over past the corner of the brow, giving this a dramatic look. It is a wonderful haircut for fine, straight hair. I love the colour, it is striking and gives this look new life.

THE BOB HAIRCUT

Image
THE BOB IS BACK Invented in Paris in 1909 by French Hairdresser Antoine, the bob haircut has been worn by influential women ever since. Classic, geometric, or layered the bob can take on many shapes. Wondering if the bob is right for you? The truth is the bob is great for many different hair types, face shapes, and body types. A bob looks great in a suit, sexy in an evening dress, and sporty in sweats. Even curly hair loves the structure of the bob. Katie Holmes and Sienna Miller have made it chic again. Susannah Constantine always has aversion of the bob. Long or short it can become your best friend. It can add length or width to your face, neck or shoulders. It can hide an aging neck or frame your jawline. Creating a flattering bob lies in the cutting technique and in using the right hair products. Fine, thin and limp hair can become thicker. Unruly, wavy hair can be set free. Hair can be cut the same length all over the head and explode with volume. Some gentle l...
