Our Hair Heroes of 2011

By RMUK on December 29th, 2011

Cheryl Cole
She has gone from brunette and bouffant to blonde and sassy but whatever Cheryl Cole does with it, the nation’s women love her hair. The 28-year-old has been voted Britain’s hair icon for 2011 with thousands envious of her thick, full locks.
 
Jessie J
Best known for her poker straight, ink black bob with a perfect fringe slashed above the eyes , Jessie J brought precision cutting to the forefront of fashion this year with her must-have head-hugging cut in a pristine shade of purest black. This year also saw Jessie experiment with wigs and extensions, showing off a violet bob and silver dip-dye lengths as well as glamorous waves and curls.
 
Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge
The latest addition to the Royal Family has fast become a firm favourite with the press and public alike thanks to her chic outfits and fabulously blow-dried bouffant. 
Making glossy, gorgeous, natural-looking luxury a trend in itself.
 
Rihanna
A constant style chameleon, Rihanna’s styles this year have ranged from bright red corkscrew curls to a demure blonde for her photoshoot for Vogue magazine
 
Katy Perry
She was announced as the face (and hair) of ghd in April 2011 and Katy Perry continued to keep everyone talking about her barnet throughout the year with colour changes a-go-go. When Katy Perry dyed her hair pink, it didn’t come as that much of a shock to fans as she has been known to change the colour of her locks quite often. From black and pink to blonde and blue, this year has seen Katy give her pin-up girl style a comic-book colourful twist.
 
 
Alexa Chung
Alexa always manages to style her pared-down bob in different ways to keep it looking fresh and new. Straight locks suit the cut of the bob giving a more boyish charm, while gentle waves help soften the style making it a more feminine and vintage look. Alexa has become known as Queen Bee of balyage.
 ”I just like her tossed off hair. It’s chopped, she lets her natural texture come out, she doesn’t look tortured with blow dryers or straightening irons or anything. She is sexy, obviously very sexy, but in a fresh and kind of tomboy-ish way.”
 
Lady Gaga
The queen of kook tamed things down a bit in 2011, switching her OTT multi-coloured wigs for high-octane glamour – albeit with a trademark Gaga twist. 
Mint green bouffants, silver chignons and pastel pink ponytails all ensured the first lady of pop stayed firmly in the spotlight this year.

The big debate 2: Straight v’s curly hair styles

By RMUK on December 29th, 2011

Olivia Palermo regularly switches between straight, wavy and even ringlets! Her straight locks reveal the lustrous thickness of her enviable tresses, while the cute waves help show off the subtle dip-dyed colour effect. Both styles look amazing

Alexa Chung always manages to style her pared-down bob in different ways to keep it looking fresh and new. Straight locks suit the cut of the bob giving a more boyish charm, while gentle waves help soften the style making it a more feminine and vintage look.

Leighton Meester knows exactly how to work her hair to suit her look. Whether ultra modern and edgy with razor-sharp tresses or old-school Hollywood waves, she works her hair into her outfit to perfection – even matching her make-up to the look.

Taylor Swift doesn’t do straight that often, but when she does it’s always spot on. While her natural curls keep her looking sweet and girlie, the straight tresses help give her a more grown-up look.

Dannii Minogue can do things with a bob that no other woman can! The star looks stunning with sleek and chic flapper-girl locks and equally stunning with beach-kissed waves.

Blake Lively has rapidly become our go-to celeb for fabulous A-list hair. Not afraid to experiment with different looks, Blake’s hair lets her be playful with her styles – meaning that she never has a bad hair day.

Nicole Scherzinger

By RMUK on December 29th, 2011

Nicole is known for her beautiful looks just as much as she is for her singing. Nicole is a beautiful woman that is enhanced by her great hair. Nicole has very long, thick balck hair. It’s all natural. She keeps her hair conditioned and healthy which helps to bring out the natural luster her hair has. Nicole’s hair is mainly parted in the middle. She lets a bit of her hair fall over one shoulder whilst the rest falls down her back. This gives her an elegant look suitable for all occasions.

Lily Allen Latest Hairstyle

By RMUK on April 12th, 2009

 

Lily Allen Latest Hairstyle 

 

Lily Allen recently appeared in Toronto with a hairstyle that was both pretty while still managing to maintain the funky edge that Lily has become quite famous for.

 

A heavy fringe with long bangs have appeared that were ever so slightly parted in the centre and the long, dark hair was pulled back into a loose pony tail that was worn just to one side of the head.

 

With a pretty black dress teamed with tights and just the right amount of jewelry, Lily Allen has come into her own with a music and fashion style all of her own.
