Need A Change? Autumn Hair Styles

By Mandy Gillespie


Every season represents the start of something new; that is why it is a good time to think about getting a lovely new hair style to go with it. Most people go shopping for new clothes every fall so why not set it off and complete the look with an exciting change in hair color, cut or style. There are many hot, new autumn hair styles popular this season.

Finding a great stylist is the first thing that needs to be done; a stylist who is not properly trained and does not have a great eye for hair can never produce good results. Some women are fortunate enough to have found such a stylist to begin with, but for those who have not it is necessary to search for one. The internet can provide reviews for stylists, which gives an idea as to who is good. Asking friends and family to recommend someone is a good idea too.

To pick the right style, a woman has to determine what would look best with her face shape, features and coloring. A style in a magazine that looks great may look horrible on another person. It's very individualized. For those who have no clue what they want, they can ask their stylist for suggestions or consult hair magazines.

Women who already have short hair and are looking for a new style; have several sharp and playful styles to choose from. Many of these feature the "messy" tousled look which is popular now. A few of these fun styles include; the 60's retro crop with a long fringe (like the Fab Four), messy layered bob, and curled-edge bob with side fringe. A punkish 80's mod look is popular too, that is teased in the front. For a bold statement, there is the mod, asymmetric fringe cut and the chin-length, fringeless bob.

Women with long hair have another set of sexy styles available to them for a great fall look. The main theme seems to be the loose and messy look as seen in such styles as long, loose waves, and big, loose curls. Most styles require either hot rollers or a curling iron. The Farrah Fawcett look is back to an extent, with a variation of her classic, blow-dried back waves. For those who have naturally curly or ethnic hair, volume is in so styling it loose and big is chic. Layers are popular as well as they add volume and create a youthful look. Updos, buns and low ponytails are also considered stylish this fall.

Where colors are concerned, not every woman is daring enough to go extremes; but for those who are white blonde is a hot choice, although it is safer on shorter hair as it can easily ruin ends. Multi-tone highlights are in demand for all hair colors with their eye-catching contrast and anti-aging effect. Other nice tones for a youthful look include "dirty" blonde and honey shades of blonde.

A word should be said about hair accessories as well since there are many trendy and cute ones that can set off any style. Popular this season are various combs, head wraps, clips and barrettes some having an 80's retro look to them. They are nice little finishing touches that can complement one's wardrobe and draw attention to her hair.

Any woman who is considering a style change should be able to find one that looks great on her no matter what hair length she has. There are so many smart autumn hair styles to pick, all of which can make someone feel good about herself.
