Hair fashion, 2010

Hair fashion 2010 from, salon International, London, UK 2009
I wrote this a few weeks ago and did not post it. No matter. it is still rlelvant.

Several big trends were to be seen at Salon International this past week. They will be seen here in the U.K. in the spring and to follow in the fall of 2010. Bottom line, welcome back to the mid 1980’s. I commented earlier this week on the return of parachute pants… just like the old ones. I saw wide shoulders with shoulder pads as well… on both models as well as attendees. The big hair trends to look forward to and to be sure you have both the skills as well as the tools to execute are… Clippered disconnection, asymmetry big hair on men and women and . Clippered disconnection, that is to say, clipper cut perimeters with interior hair hanging over to obscure a portion of the clippering… not so much the skater cuts of the early 1990’s but more like the geometric shapes of 1985. Asymetry is back in a big way too. Radically short on one side and mid length on the other… Long, smooth and straight is going away. Sure we will still be using out flat irons, but now we will use them for bumping in volume and smoothing out medium lengths. Smaller flat irons will be popular… 3/8” flat irons and 1/2 “ irons will be everywhere.
