Bella Poll: How Much Are You Willing to Cut Off?
I went in for a haircut with a new stylist recently, and as soon as I sat down she asked, "What's the most you're willing to cut off during a routine trim?" I was surprised by the question, but she explained that the amount you're willing to trim off if there's damage says a lot about your overall hair philosophy. I'm personally willing to trim off quite a bit when the mood strikes.
Do You Immediately Restyle Your Hair After Leaving the Salon?
Getting pampered at the salon is one of life's little pleasures, from the massage at the shampoo bowl to the precision cut down to the final blow-dry and style. Recently, a co-worker and I were chatting about our salon visits, particularly the "style" portion of the service.
Both of us agreed that while we might love the results of our actual haircut and/or color, neither one of us are ever really all that excited about the way the look was finished.
Does Your Haircut Fall Into a Category?
HerCut, a soon-to-be-launched line of haircare products, distinguishes itself in the market by offering products by haircut, not hair type. Many of you said you'd be interested in the concept, but were concerned that the line seems to forgo texture, an important element in styling. (More about my experience in trying HerCut later.) With all this talk of haircuttery, I have to ask: does your hairstyle actually fall into a specific category, is it a blend of two or more cuts, or is it practically indescribable?
Have You Ever Asked For a Hair Redo?
Have you ever left the salon feeling not-so-fabulous about your cut or color? Maybe the blond was a little too yellow for your liking, or there was an obvious bleed mark in your fringe. Or perhaps it was just that your new cut wasn't cooperating with the texture of your hair, leaving you with a string of bad hair days.
More Tips For Stretching Out a Haircut
Are you in between haircut appointments? Or maybe you're like me, and you're looking to save money by going to your stylist less often. While we're on the topic, be sure to check out some recession-proof hair color tips for low-cost ideas on keeping color looking fresh.
What Do You Know About Barbershop History?
Yesterday, the New York Times featured an article regarding the differences in customer loyalty when it comes to men and women. It probably comes as no surprise that men show their devotion to groups and companies, such as barbershops, while women are more loyal to the stylist than the salon. But, we already knew that anyway, right?
Send in Your Bad Hair Pics For Hairstyle Appreciation Day!
It's National Hairstyle Appreciation Day. Who would have known it? To celebrate this momentous occasion, we've been digging through our photo archives — and unfortunate, embarrassing "tagged" photos on Facebook — in search of the hairstyles we did not appreciate all that much.
Which Haircut Do You Like Best on Kate Moss?
Kate Moss has been creating a bit of a frenzy in the hair world lately. First, she partnered up with her long-time stylist, James Brown, to create a line of hair-care products, then she threw on a platinum-blonde wig for her latest ad campaign for Topshop. Now the model turned hair chameleon is rocking the bangs.
Should Women Pay More For a Haircut Than Men?
An equality organization in Finland is attempting to fine salons for discriminatory prices in haircuts between men and women. And I, for one, am all for it! I pay $65 for a simple haircut when some of my male friends pay up to $30 less.
Bella Interview: Scissorz on Getting The Cut You Want
A few weeks ago, Scissorz dropped me a line. She's a cool punk-rock girl living in Florida, where she works as a hair stylist. Fab and I agree that she's got a cool Agyness Deyn look going on—but as you'll soon see, she's got a style and perspective all her own.
