If you want to change your hairstyle should you follow a hairstyle trend? Go for a classic cut? Or chose a colour and style that suits your face shape? Let us answer, or book a free consultation at our Armagh salon to discuss.
Which New Hairstyle Could You Rock?
Short, medium or long hair, if you have the right hairstyle you can have a good hair day, every day.
Hairstyles require a personalised service from the hairstylist for the client. If you want to change your hairstyle, in order for this to happen, your hairstylist needs to understand about your;
a. hair type
b. hair texture
c. face shape
d. head shape
Also, hairstyles must be easily maintained and suitable for your lifestyle and day to day schedule. You don’t need to spend hours to make your hair look good at home, if your hairstyle is made specifically for your hair type. This all begins when you’re sitting in the salon chair, with your Hairstylist who listens to what you want and understands what will work.
Hairstyle trends for 2022
> The popular Bob or Chin Bob, with a middle parting or fringe
> A ‘Bixie,’ the mix between Bob and Pixie which is a long length Pixie, similar to the Bob
> The Classic Romantic Volume, a hairstyle for long hair
Following a trend however always depends on your hair texture. This determines which type of style your hairstylist can help you achieve. Everyone is different, each with different hair, so a hairstyle needs to be tailored to you.
Which hairstyle suits you?
Face Shapes and Hairstyles – Which Hairstyle Suits you?
Achieving a style just because it’s on trend doesn’t mean it will actually suit you. If you want to change your hairstyle, the best way to find the perfect style for you is to tie back your hair and take a picture of your face. Look at the vertical and horizontal lines of our face between your forehead and chin, and side to side across your cheeks.
Do you have an oval shaped face? You’re lucky as most hairstyles will suit you.
A round face like Selena Gomez? Try a long fringe that reaches below your lip line, to give more length to your face.
Do you have a triangular shaped face with the tip pointed down to your chin? Like Reese Witherspoon you could use a longer fringe to give more balance between your forehead and chin.
Or do you have a square face like Angelina Jolie? You can create more texture in your fringe and often a medium/long wavy style is great for you.
When you understand how face shapes influences hairstyles, you can safely chose which type of cut really suits you and accentuates your best features. It’s always good to remember that cutting a few inches more can be the best option to finish your style. This will give a full volume look while giving you a really healthy feel for your hair, without those thin split ends.
At Copa Hair Design I take time in your 1:1 Hair Consultation to consider all of these elements. This consultation for your hairstyle is a very important part of your visit to the salon. Instead of following celebrity looks, this is the best way to design your ideal hairstyle, your own celebrity style.
