Hair Trends: Masculine Feminine

According to Redken: One of the hair trends for Fall/Winter 2009 is a Masculine Feminine, a chic pairing of tough and soft. Think of it as dual personality hair: Classically feminine styles toughened up with a silk finish, or a mixture of sleek and soft textures on the same head of hair.

The Masculine Feminine hair style was seen on the runway at: Alberta Ferretti. Jean Paul Gaultier. Lanvin. Marc Jacobs. Miu Miu. Roberto Cavalli. Versace.

Celebrity that comes in mind with this Masculine Feminine hair trend is Rihanna and her style at the MET Costume Institute Gala Benefit 2009.

Rihanna’s Hair Raising Style: How To Get The Look

Rihanna’s hair is rising and reaching new heights. In fact Rihanna’s hair raising hairstyle was seen in some variations on the runway during New York Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2009.

According to Redken, Height Of Fashion, is one of the big hair trends seen on the runway during New Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2009 on shows, such as: Jean Paul Gaultier.

Height Of Fashion means extreme lift and volume for bold style and exaggerated fullness. Fortunately, adapting these looks for everyday is simple, just turn down the volume.

Hair Trends With Redken Fall/Winter 2009: New Classics

Hair Trends With Redken Fall/Winter 2009 according to Guido, Redken Creative Consultant:

A Strong Presence: “This season, it’s all about the ‘do’…hairstyles that have a strong presence, that push the boundaries. These kind of looks are dependent on the use-and in many cases the overuse-of hair products.”

A Positive Force: “Hair now is a reaction to the times we’re living in. It’s strong, positive and forceful-it’s empowering to women.”

A Way To Update And Adapt: “We’ve taken looks from the 40s, 50s, and 80s and updated them with new elements. Women can adapt these looks for everyday by toning down a bit. If a look has extreme shine, use a little less shine product. If it has exaggerated volume, lessen the height.”

Heat Styling Q&A With GUIDO Redken Creative Consultant

Here are some tips about heat styling by GUIDO Redken’s Creative Consultant:

There are so many different sized curling irons-how do I know which one to choose?
It depends on two things. First, you need to decide what size curl you want to create. Second, you have to account for the fact that the curl will loosen throughout the day-you should choose a barrel that’s slightly smaller than the size of the curl you want. For loose waves, I find 1-inch curling iron works best. At first the curls might appear a bit too tight, but they’ll loosen up perfectly.

How can I prevent flat-ironed hair from looking lifeless?
Apply a heat protectant product like iron silk 07 ultra straightening spray to each section before you flat-iron. Hair that’s continually exposed to heat without any protection will end up looking dull, damaged and lifeless. The other trick is to kick the ends out. Just turn your wrist slightly as you’re bringing the iron down to the end of the section. It gives you movement and texture, so hair doesn’t look so severe.

Redken’s Spring/Summer 2009 Hair Trends

A return to simplicity…”This season, it’s all about paring down the hair. Hair had a very modern feel, with styles that stayed close to the head. Loose hair was the exception, not the rule.”

An added touch…”Adding a hair accessory like a hat or a headband can really complement an over-all look.”

A changeable nature…”Heat styling is crucial when you’re backstage. I need products that protect the hair and lock in shape, so I can transform models’ hair from one show to another.”
GUIDO, Redken Creative Consultant.

Hair Trend 1: Perfectly Undone. Softly reconstructed looks with a natural matte finishing. Ponytails, knots and half-ponytails had a casual, disheveled look that played perfectly against spring’s ladylike silhouettes.
Finishes were satin-matte, with an easy elegance.

AS SEEN AT:
Balenciaga • Calvin Klein • Celine • Marc Jacobs • Peter Som • Pollini • Salvatore Ferragamo.

How to get perfectly undone hairstyle:
• Hair shouldn’t look tamed this season. Instead, bring out natural texture by applying thickening lotion 06 body builder and tousling with your fingers as you blow-dry.
