So speaking of hair extensions, did you catch
Carrie Underwood and Miley Cyrus on the Grammys last night? Voluminous waves were in plentiful supply on this year’s honorees and presenters alike. But so were lots of other styles, like Rihanna’s short, straight and versatile cut, destined to show up in
hair cutting classes everywhere.
What impressed me most was that these songbirds felt free to express their individuality.
Amy Winehouse wore her signature mixed-bag look of hair, hair pieces and ornaments all glued together.
Fantasia fashioned a dual-shaded, half-shaved, love-it-or-hate-it look.
Beyonce was highly highlighted,
Alicia Keys went for hair updo elegance and
Fergie let loose in tousled curls. It was not a one-hair style-fits-all night by any means; everyone did her thing.
This refreshing level of variety gives the celeb-worshippers among your clientele a lot of looks to choose from. The assortment achieves something else as well. It communicates the simple truth that trend-setters, confident women and people who just want to look their best find a hair style they can own, one that reflects their unique image. As their hairdresser, you can channel your creativity into guiding clients toward a look and image that work for them. It’s professionally rewarding: with so many looks around, the
hair style education never gets old and you never feel stale.
