Short Hair Styles 2012

This year we’ve seen a ton of girls rocking the short hair cuts and short hair styles are being called the fresh new look of 2012. Some might say this screams “tomboy” but a girl can be sexy if the hair fits the look. Even celebrities super stars like the famous Keria Knightley and the British actress from Harry Potter, Emma Watson have tried to show off their short hairstyles in 2012 and it will be no exception in 2013. Sometimes when there’s less, there’s more to notice. Highlights absolutely cry-out for attention when they’re put in a sexy set of short well-styled hair. For dark hair, this can work out really nicely especially with a nice set of silver, gold, or blond highlights with some nice flare in the front of the back to draw attention to the face. This can work out really well for women that are tall or go well with a good pair of heels. It also depends on how well you’re able to have your hair frame the curves of your face.
Short hair certainly has seen a lot innovation and creativity in the year 2012 and has been pushed harder than ever by the media and celebrity figures than ever before. I think it’s going to be the hit hairstyle for 2012. Tapered and choppy short haircuts give women the opportunity of having face framing or loose and flaring, as an appearance to flared and wispy. Short hair cuts are easy to manage style and carry but be careful of letting the hairdresser or hair styler cutting it too short. We all remember what happened when Britney Spears chopped off all her hair and no one wants to be called “the crazy hairless lady.” Remember to keep it classy if you shoot for short hair. Whatever you do, don’t try to copy male hair styles; they are the last thing you’d ever want. That’s not what a sexy short hair style for women is about. And be sure to get your hairdressers or hair stylists opinion on whether or not the style would suit your look.

Medium Length Hair Styles 2012

Could this possibly be the definitive contemporary hairstyle of 2012? I honestly believe it is. The problem with medium length hairstyles 2012 is that it’s so very, well let’s be honest about it, boring in the long run. It is a really hard haircut to define as sexy, daring or bold. It’s considered very “middle of the road,” but on the right girl sometimes it can really make the ordinary very extraordinary. This is the case with this is a hairstyle that doesn’t really scream risk-taker but it can be very elegant and casual at the same time. Of course, it’s always possible to spice it up with some pink highlights if you’re going for dark hair or perhaps toss in some silver or gold highlights if you’re going for the strong blonde look.
The bonus to using a medium hair style 2012 is that it is a very in-between style of hair that could attract any kind of man, from conservative to the wild and crazy rock star. It says classy but with a bit of a wild side hidden under that pretty face. A few famous girls have been hair styling like this such as Jessica Alba and Scarlett Johansson, but celebrities go through look changes pretty quickly and I honestly think it’s on the way out in 2012 unless you’re willing to put in the effort to make it stand out. If a girl decides to go for this look, asymmetrical cuts can reflect a bold personality and it can really make a statement. Using a choppy layered medium hair style to compliment silky blonde hair can really be amazing. Toss in some romantic curls and this hair can say classy but fun at the same time. Bangs can be either straight or swept on one side, offering you a very feminine and girlish look that make guys take an interest. This style is also fairly low maintenance, saving you many trips to the hair salon or hairdresser.
Hairstyles 2012

Long Hairstyles 2012

Long hairstyles 2012 are probably the most conservative hair style a girl can have this year. It’s a long time look reserved for those feeling more elegant and classy than those seeking wild and fun. This is the hair you want to be rocking when you get to meet in the in-laws or when you’re out for fancy dining. Having long hair defiantly falls under the classic female look. Nothing says classy like having a long set of lovely hair that can turn heads. While it certainly is a very classic look, it has seen some innovation from performance artists such as Taylor Swift who does majority of her own hairstyling and that’s impressive in Hollywood. This style must be in accordance with the way your face is shaped, just because it works on some random celebrity doesn’t mean it will work for you.
You can set your long hairstyles 2012 for round faces by washing it with shampoo, apply serum over it and then dry it with hair dryer. Next, you’ll need to straighten it with a straightening iron and then apply a few curls if that’s what you’re after. Lastly, you will need to apply hair spray over it – if you’re not sure how to do this, visit your local hairdresser or hair salon and ask them to show you. This way your hairs will remain set for longer hour or if there’s a bit of wind. Long hairstyles 2012 for round faces are wispy and tapered hairstyle. The tapered style is useful in removing the roundness of the face. They also give gratifying look to your face. Side bangs can add a great deal of detail to any girl’s face. In addition, it will probably highlight the fabulous facial features like eyes, lips, chin, nose, jaw line and cheekbones and really make them pop. Your first layer must end near your chin, so to give you a unique look. Bangs for the long hairstyles 2012 for round faces must not be blunt, as this will destroy the effectiveness of cut and will make it a disaster. Regardless of what you work towards, long hair will always give you an elegant and defined look.

Bob Hairstyles 2012

The bob style of haircut is probably the most flexible hairstyle ever fashioned for women, and also one of the most in demand at the hair salon. This along with other short styles of hair has probably seen the most acknowledgment and growth in terms of how much it’s absolutely loved by the media. Its popularity goes up and down, constantly changing all the time. These are definitely for gals with round faces and high cheekbones. Supple and graduated lengthy layers that stretch all the way to your shoulder will make your face look slimmer, like when long strips on a piece of clothing can have that slimming effect on some people. It can also help out in removing a well defined or slightly muscular jaw if you happen to have one of those. It can really work out well for sandy blondes looking to highlight their high cheekbones or girls with dark hair looking to create a mysterious shadowy sexy look.
The new style of bob can be an asymmetrical bob or a wedge bob like the one made trendy by Victoria Beckham or lustrous and silky like Katie Holmes’ chin-length traditional bob with elongated side-swept bangs. In between that, we have seen different other bob hairstyles from popular celebrities such as the short and blond bob of Patricia Arquette, Rihanna’s asymmetrical sleek bob or Paris Hilton’s feathery layered bob. Of course if you don’t have the kind of money those girls do to visit the hairdresser or beauty salon, you can always do your own bob hairstyles 2012, instead of going to a hair stylist. It’s really not a complex hair style at its core that’s seen a lot of media action. The biggest innovation seen with this hairstyle is the use of the slant bob and the popular colors pink and blue from Katy Perry. Her pink hair is absolutely amazing to view. Of course, vintage bob hairstyles are also coming back in style in 2012, with the class blond 1950’s and 1960’s bobs with curled ends on each side. Retro is definitely the word when it comes to beautiful bob haircuts.

The prom is entirely about looking glamorous and having your special day. Everyone woman should be entitled to looking good and this is one style of hair that really lets you show off long hair and really work it to show how special you are. The most popular prom hairstyles usually involve letting your hair grow a bit long or using extensions so you have something to show off and style to begin with. Going to the prom with shorter hair might require the use of accessories such as exotic flowers like red silk roses, jeweled black or silver headbands, or black Russian tulle blushers. If you have trouble with long hairstyles 2012 or want to go with a bob, these accessories can really make your hair pop or stand out if you apply them correctly.
