The right hair style
By mati. Filed in Beauty |Tags: hair style
Oh, the troubles we women have to face!!! Eternal quests for the perfect mascara, the perfect lip color, the perfect hair color, and last but not least, the perfect hair cut!
As we get older, we look in the mirror, only to find that the hair style that we have felt so happy with for the last 25 years, no longer flatters our features. Now what? How do we know what works and what doesn’t?
One of the things that happens with age is that our colors and features change. Everything gets softer. The skin gets paler, the hair color gets less vibrant and even the body (parts) get softer. The natural reaction is to buy brighter and brighter clothes to counteract what is happening, and to add a dash of bright red lipstick. This NEVER works. Only young girls can get away with that kind of madness. No, what we have to do is get a softer look, so that the clothes, hair and makeup is harmonious with our new and changed self.
The lip color has to be softened from a bright red to more of a soft nude color, the hair has to go from very dark or very blond, to a softer color that is not so extreme. The clothes must be more muted, and the hair needs to follow as well.
Take a look in the mirror – does your hair style make you look like you are wearing a helmet? Or does it make you look like you have puppy dog ears on each side of your head? Do you have a mid part, with hair cut straight across at shoulder length? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you seriously need a new look!
One of the easiest ways to make your hair style look softer is to add whispy layers throughout the hair. Layers are awesome. They frame the face and add life to your hair. They make you look loose and easy going instead of stern and severe. And, what about some light bangs? Bangs, whether they hang down, or you sweep them to the side, makes you look years younger, and the best thing is, they cover up any wrinkle you have on your forehead.
If you still aren’t sure what will look good on you, you can always upload a picture of your head with hair pulled back to something like ivillage.com and try on different hair styles and colors, before you actually see your hair dresser. When you find something that you like, just print off the picture and take it with you to the next hair cutting appointment.
Change is good! After you allow yourself to change, you feel so good. Remember, life is supposed to be an adventure. It is better to make a mistake, than to be stuck with something that isn’t working anyway. So, take a deep breath, and just go for it!
