01.22.11The New ShagThe February issue of Allure says the shag is the new “it” hairstyle. You know, that choppy, layered hairstyle that was big on rock stars of the '60s, Carol Brady in the '70s, Joan Jett in the '80s, and (thanks to Sally Hershberger) Meg Ryan in the '90s. Freja Beha Erichsen made the shag relevant again in 2009 (above) by strutting down runways with a supermodely version of the messy 'do. And now Freja's grown out shag is a symbol of the new, revamped shag. It's an edgier, sexed-up version of the cut--kind of like a severely layered bob with ...

08.09.10Summer Hair Tips For AllCeleb stylist Riccardo Maggiore from the Riccardo Maggiore Salon in New York City believes you can have healthy, beautiful hair during the summer months, if you know how to properly take care of it. He put together some great summer hair tips for girls with all different types of hair. Check it! Fine Hair - For fine hair, like Cameron Diaz, long layers are ideal, Maggiore says. The layers will create movement and volume. This is perfect for the hot, summer months. Wavy Hair - Wavy hair, like Kristen Stewart's, is great for summer; it’s like beach hair without even stepping foot ...

07.31.10Time For A ChangeI want to cut my hair. (I knew this would happen post-wedding!) I don't want to go too short, but maybe a long bob type cut. Once I take out my Hotheads Hair Extensions, my hair is going to be too layered (still. boo.) So I'm thinking it would be nice to take off some length. Plus, I've just had long hair for a while now, and it's always good to change things up. I still have some bang action going on, though. A lob might be weird with bangs? So maybe some other type of short-ish or medium length ...

07.30.10Spill The BeansI was thinking the other day that Jennifer Aniston should write a book detailing exactly what her beauty, skincare, and workout routine is because she looks incredibly good all the time. Even if the book just listed the phone numbers of her plastic surgeon, dermatologist, and personal trainer. I'd just like to know what the deal is, you know? Jennifer's hair has been looking particularly great, as she launches her debut fragrance "Lolavie" and promotes her new movie The Switch, which has such an annoyingly glaring plot hole in the trailer. It drives me c-r-a-z-y. But still. Hair is important, and ...

04.23.10Hair GoalRemember how I mentioned that my last haircut (not the one I just got at Argyle Salon & Spa from Rebecca, she was awesome! It was the cut before that... Not naming names but... ) The stylist went totally scissor happy and layer the eff out of my hair. And I am still super annoyed because, well, it wasn't what I asked for in the first place and now that my hair is all Brazilian Blowout'd and smooth and straight, you can see the super short layers a lot more clearly. I seriously have no idea what the stylist was ...

04.22.10"I Grow It, I Cut It"Heidi Klum was on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno last night talking about her new haircut. She said that she cut her hair because she got bored. “I got bored as we all do every once in a while as girls, so I chopped it off! I grow it, I cut it. Some people never change their hair and it works for them. For me, I get bored." I can relate to that! Changing your hair is fun. Who wants to stick with the same old thing forever? Although, I really don't think of Heidi Klum as someone who changes ...

04.19.10Bad Hair DayHave you ever cried over a bad haircut? If so, you're not alone. A recent poll by ShopSmart, a magazine published by Consumer Reports, showed that a fourth of women (26%) have cried after getting a haircut. Forty-four percent say their mood has been affected by a bad hair day and a third say they have regretted a style change. So, tell me--have you guys ever cried over a bad haircut? Whenever I went to a new stylist, I use to ask them to tell me their best story about a client freaking out in their chair. But I never got ...

07.23.09Ricci's Blah HairChristina Ricci is one of those celebs that disappears for long periods of time. I feel like it's been years since I've seen her out and about. She should be in more movies. Christina was in one of my favorite movies of all time, The Ice Storm, although she was pretty much just a kid when it came out. Anyway, Christina looks really pretty, but I think her hair could've been better. The highlights looks a little brassy to me and the cut is so blah. I'd like to see some more long layers at least--the ends look scraggly. I understand ...

07.20.09Hollywood HairI love Sienna Miller's shade of blonde here. It's so bright and pretty. The color looks nice against her fair skin tone, and the long layers are also flattering. Nothing very unique going on here, I know, but for "Hollywood hair", it's nicely done.

12.04.08More JulianneOne more. This is exactly the hair I would kill for. *sigh* Although, I would add a few more layers because I think it falls a little bit heavy around her face. (I’m thinking she’s wearing some extensions here.)
