This year rumours of sharp bobs and angled cuts are in, “it’s going to be a real slice!” (10 points if you can guess which movie that quote is from). Sometimes it can be daunting to go for something that is a real statement piece whether it be clothing, make up or of course hair. Why not try the ‘Lob’ (long bob) it’s a short snip away from the strong sharp bobs above but isn’t too much of a change that you’ll lose your identity.
……And those of you with long locks, ditch the layers and go for blunt one lengths so you can show off that thick hair of yours. The positives of that lovely long hair is Hair ups – this season the hair ups are sleek, strong and sexy. Having something as simple as a high pony with swooped bangs can really take your hair to the next level.
But what about those hair flowers – is it time yet? Please say it is, I do so love a flower behind one ear…Perfect for the change of the seasons as we are ready to hit spring, floral clips, clasps and accessories will be back with love.
Colour… This months interesting hue is green – we’ve gone through the trends of unicorn hair, first it was silver then gold now green – perhaps with the change of weather another shade will rise to the top? Lets wait and see. See our image of Kylie Jenner for an idea!
