Everyone wants to have the latest and greatest, right? Why should your hairstyle be any different? The trends for this season are full of surprises, and hail to styles seen before—but this time with a twist. Take, for example, the hottest new shade in hair color: RED!
From copper pennies to strawberry blonde to auburn, celebs are running to their stylists to transform themselves into temperamental redheads. Now, we’re not talking about running out and looking like Bozo the Clown here, think Emma Stone or Drew Barrymore. Red is HOT HOT HOT for Spring, and you can even DIY! Make sure you pick a shade that is no more than 2 shades lighter or darker than your natural color. Better yet, try a color depositing shampoo or cellophane first, to test drive your new hue. Find one from Planet Beauty’s online shopping page!
How do your favorite celebs pull off the center part so well? You, too, can score this celebrity trend! A throwback to the ’70s, the clean center part has been spotted all over runways both last season and now. While this trend works best with clean straight hair (for full effect), dry shampoo can help tame second-day hair for this look. Other center part styles are sassy side buns with front pieces left out, side-swept bangs, or tousled beach waves. A close cousin to the center part is the deep side part, which gives beauties the chance to add twists or braids from one side of the face to the other.

Another hot trend in beauty for spring is inspired by the men: slicked back, wet look hair! Also called “the wet look” this style is great for second (or third) day hair and is an easy transition from working out or laying poolside to cocktails. Fresh off the Spring 2012 runways, this avant garde look is super easy! Apply a dollop of strong hold gel to wet hair and comb straight back. Let it dry and own your new ‘do! Another way to wear this trend is in a ponytail, secured with an elastic the same shade as your hair. Take a one inch piece from the bottom of your pony and wrap it around the elastic a few times pinning it with a bobby pin.
Did you know that bangs were once called “lunatic fringe?” Don’t be afraid to take the plunge with fringe because of the name; bangs update any look! Whether they’re blunt, long, short or side swept, adding bangs instantly changes your ‘do!
Think buns are only for ballerinas? Think again beauty! This season, celebs are rocking high, messy buns. Try it with a smooth crown and a funky textured knot on top. Simply gather all of your hair into a smooth high pony, back comb the tail and wrap it around the elastic a few times, securing it with open end pins for a perfectly undone look.
