The multiple ponytails hairstyle

The best hair styles of long hair are those that use limited preparation time. The multiple ponytails style is a very popular long hairstyle.

The multiple ponytails style consists of three base ponytails, but it is possible to have more ponytails if interested! Once the basic style of three ponytails is mastered, which normally takes ten minutes, you can improvise on it! If you plan on just having three ponytails, newly washed hair is great; but if you plan to add knots or braids, it’s better to work with hair that is not so soft. The hair has to be brushed to remove knots and tangles. Then all the hair from the top of your crown has to be picked up and separated into three even sections. Some hair from the ears below has to be left loose to flow around your neck. Each ponytail then has to be smoothened into separate mini-ponytails, and secured with either a hair bungee or elastic hair band. Once the basic multi-pony look has been achieved, you could use different braided or knotted styles. You could create multiple ponytails where no hair is left to flow down your back. Another choice is to have all the different ponytails coiled up and pinned on top of the crown to get a beautiful up-do of braids. You could also braid the center of the multi ponytails and leave the side ponytails unbraided. Then you could pin jeweled hairpins at the top of each ponytail, or experiment with different color scrunches to cover the elastic bands.

Bohemian Hair Styles

Talking about Bohemian hair styles, I think of earthy and natural looking hair. Long hair parted in the middle and hanging in loose subtle curls is a throwback to the 1970’s hippie scene. Back then, young women wore long flowing hair with leather headbands, faded jeans and chunky jewelry, very much like some of our styles today. With or without bangs, Bohemian hair enhances your natural beauty and brings out a feminine glow. Loose face-framing curls can give you a soft, romantic look.

Thick straight bangs are one option, while some prefer long, side-swept, almost wispy bangs. No matter what texture your hair is, wearing it in its natural state is perfectly Bohemian.

Your bohemian hair style is uniquely yours to wear and as a hair stylist, I think our individual differences are what make each of us beautiful.

Bohemian hair styles are low maintenance and look ultra-feminine, so keep make-up fresh and light to go with your hairstyle.

Getting an Emo Hair Style

One style of hair that is amongst many teenagers going through their rebellion state is “Emo.” What “Emo” basically stands for is emotional.

They engage in hair styles that are short, outrageous, spunky, and just all around different. Not all, but most tend to have a longer front and shorter back to their hair style. Others have that, and have short uneven sides, layers and even colors.

To get an Emo hair style, you must be ready to have a different and radical look, and get ready to be stared down in public.

• First thing is to go to a stylist and explain what look you want

• You can get long hair in the front with uneven bangs and a short edgy cut in back.

• Think about putting some color and/or streaks into your hair or bangs.

• Use a straightening iron and/or flat iron for your hair. You rarely and scarcely see an Emo with curls in their hair or with braids and twists.

• Use molding cream, wax, and anti frizz if you want to have spikes and/or tails in your hair. This work very well with keeping your hair in place. You may also try a nice strong gel.

• Not all, but most Emo individuals have darker hair color because everything is dark to them. From their attire to their hair to their feelings and emotions.

• Emo hair is nothing without the Emo attitude. Tell your stylist exactly what you want. Let it be funky, different and out there! That’s Emo!

80's Retro hair

Step 1: Shampoo and condition hair with volume enhancing products. Use conditioner sparingly as too much can make fine hair limp.

Step 2: Apply a serum to seal the hair cuticle, prevent frizz and protect hair from heat styling.

Step 3: Work in mousse to maximize body and fullness.

Step 4: Start blow-drying hair. If your hair is curly, dry hair with a large natural-bristle, round brush starting at the roots, elevating two-inch sections for maximum body.
If your hair is straight, rough-dry it until all moisture is removed. Spray with a -hold hairspray that will block out moisture and protect against frizz.

Step 5: Next, use a jumbo curling iron to create a "bump" in hair in the root area. Direct the front of the curling iron to the side you would like your part the fall on and upwards at the crown area for maximum body. It is crucial not to use an iron that is too small. It will give hair too much curl and a completely different look.

Step 6: Flip head upside down and use a comb to back-comb the hair at the nape to halfway up the back of the head for extra volume.

Step 7: To finish this hairstyle, and clinch va-va-voom volume, use a firm-hold hairspray.

Expert tip: Insert a clip-in hair extension for extra-glam on a special night. Tease hair in the area where you are inserting the hair extension. This gives the extension more to grip onto. It also ensures that it will not slip out during your evening out. Insert the clip in hair near the scalp close to the nape of the where it cannot be seen but the strands are obviously visible. Gently smooth hair with a large tooth comb or vent brush, being careful not to move the clip or remove the back-combing. Apply a little more hairspray to keep everything in its place.

"Big hair emerged as a strong trend on the runways for summer," says Howard Barr, Canadian Creative Consultant for John Frieda Professional Hair Care. "We saw great examples at Vivienne Westwood's show. Big voluminous hair is great for the summer months, the key is to control the frizz."

Retro Wave Hair Styles Makes a Comeback

Wave hair and curls are coming! You can see locks reminiscent of every decade from the ‘20s to the 90s. Whether it’s modern, gently curved ends, or ‘40s-style finger wave har, you’ll want to give at least one of these styles a try.

’40’s Galm
The look is a sexy return to glamour and has been featured in the runway collections of Valentine and Christian Dior. See your hair stylist for the full effect, or get retro feeling at home with hot rollers and a heat setting spray. After creating a deep side part, set sections that are the same width as the roller, and roll them under, directed toward your face. Be sure all of the rollers are going in the same direction to create a uniform wave in hair, and allow them to cool completely.

Once you’ve uncoiled your curls, brush them into pretty waves, turning the ends under. Smooth hair with a medium-weight pomade to hold hair waves together. Then, decide how you want to finish the hairstyle. Do you want to wear it all down like Madonna or tuck one side behind your ear like Liv Tyler? You may want to add a little something sparkly. The same technique applied to a bob will take you back to the ‘20’s with a super cute, flapper-esque feel.

‘7Os “Farrah” Hair
Chloe Sevigny has been opting to a full-bodied look. A modern take with wavy ends, made so popular by Farrah Fawcett. For this hair style, use a 3/4 curling iron. Curl the ends of 1” sections under, making sure they wrap around the barrel about three times. Then, unwind the iron and clip curls in place until they’ve cooled. Once you remove the clips, brush curls into the luscious waves in hair that model Petra Nemcova has been sporting lately. The look is late ‘70s-fabulous!

’80’s Power Volume
For something less tricky, brushed out waves and curls may be the perfect way for you to get a throwback hairstyle. This look is a little more imperfect, which means it’s easier to do yourself. You’ll use the same setting technique that you used for ‘40s waves but instead of turning the rollers under and toward your face, roll the bang area away from your face. You can roll all the rollers back, and brush your hair into looks similar to those worn by socialites Tinsley Mortimer and Tracee Ellis Ross. Or, for a look pulled straight from the ‘80s, change the direction of every roller and skip the pomade.

Pre-’90’s
If you have longer, straighter hair, you might like to experiment with the curled-under ends seen on the runways at Versace and Dolce & Gabbana. You’ll need a curling iron, curl clips and that all-important heat-setting spray. Starting from the bottom, curl 1” sections of hair under and toward your face. To keep the curl at the ends, don’t wrap rollers farther than a few inches up.

If you just want to bump ends under, mist on a thermal protector and wrap just the ends around the barrel of a 11/2” curling iron. Then, clip ends in place until hair has completely cooled. lf you’re ready for a retro look with wave hair, curl and sexy movement, dust off those hot rollers, ask your mom if she still has her big-barreled curling iron, and get to curling. Totally undone ‘dos are on hiatus this season, and it’s time for glamour.

Have a nice try!
