I mean, think about the “bowl” cut of the 90s. Everyone had that cut including men, women and children. I kid you not when I say that while working at the salon I did 20 of these haircuts in one day. I thought I was going to be sick. And that fad hung around for years until everyone was ck.Granted, it is very empting to go out and get the latest hairstyle fad. In some cases, doing so can make you look like you are on the cutting edge of fashion. In other cases, getting a fad cut can make you look like a copycat with no fashion sense of your own. So, how do you know if it is okay to follow a particular fad?First, you should think about the reasons you want a particular cut. Is it because you really like the style and think it would blend well with and compliment your style of dress or do you simply want the cut because so and so has it? When it comes to style and hairstyles in particular, what you wear is an expression of who you are. You should never get a style because someone else wears it and it works well for them. Instead, choose styles that are true to your character even if no one else has them.Next, you should consider how many other people are wearing the style. If there are only a few and the style is relegated to certain social circles that you are a part of, it might be a good idea to get the cut especially if it is an expression of your style of dress. But if everyone is getting the cut, you would look like you were trying to copy off of everyone else instead of being yourself. If there are relatively few people that you have seen wearing the cut and none in the area where you live, a fad cut that suits your personality could be a great way to set you apart from the others. For example: You see a great hairstyle on a movie that you think is perfect for you. Go ahead, get the cut, but be sure to change your style once everyone else has caught onto the idea. Doing so will make you a fad setter instead of a fad follower.Jenny is a hair expert, and the author of an incredible free minicourse, that explains how to find your unique style, how long or short you should have your hair, how to find the right hair color for you, how to find the right salon, and a lot more.Do you remember the models and movie stars of the 1950s with their big hairdos like the beehive and the bouffant. These hairstyles were created by teasing hair to dizzying heights to form beehives and bouffants. Teasing is otherwise known as back combing or hair ratting. Teasing is also beneficial for those who want to add some extra volume to their hair.Hair teasing, back combing or hair ratting is the art of tangling hair with the help of a hair brush or comb, in order to form a cushion that can lift the hairdo up, at the same time imparting a natural look of thick hair. Hair teasing is called back combing, because the hair is combed back towards the root to create tangles. If done improperly, teasing can cause damage to your hair. Many women approach hairstylists to create such hairstyles with hair teasing, but it is easy to master the skill of hair teasing. Let us take a look at how to tease hair without causing any damage. Wash your hair properly. Once dry, brush the hair to remove any tangles. You may use shampoos specially formulated for fine hair (if you have fine hair), as it can add some volume to the hair. Ensure that your hair is completely dry and tangle-free, to avoid damage to your hair while teasing.Curling the hair before starting the process of teasing can give you good results, unless you want to create some smooth hairstyles like the beehive. If the hair is very smooth and silky, use a hair spray to improve the texture. Part the hair into small sections, preferably one inch wide and secure the other parts with hair clips. You can choose the section which you want raised as per the hairstyle you choose. You can start with a section on the top of the head and work your way downwards. Hold the end of the strands firmly and insert a tail comb or brush, about halfway between the ends and the scalp. Gently comb the hair in the direction opposite to that of the hair growth, i.e. you have to comb the hair towards the roots. This back combing creates some tangles which offer resistance to the combing. But make sure to press these tangles at the scalp and never use pressure so that the hair don’t get damaged. Continue this process, until a cushion of hair is formed at the base of the strands you are holding. Now use hair spray on the cushion of hair, before you move on to the next section. Repeat the process, until you cover the specified area. If you want a wild and crazy look, it is better to leave the hair uncombed. You can smoothen the sections which have not been teased or the ends of the teased sections very gently, using a comb or brush. If you want to create a particular hairstyle, then use a brush or comb over the top of the cushions of hair. Comb the surface gently, so as not to disturb or flatten the cushions. Now you can add some hair accessories and create your favorite hairstyles with your teased hair. Once you are done with the hairstyle, spritz some hairspray for that ultimate look.Most women wonder how to tease air and make it stay. It is very easy to tease hair and create your own hairstyles, or try one of the 1950s. All you need is some time, lots of patience and creativity. You can sport your own hairstyle with your teased hair during the next party.
