Jessie J is Back to her Dark Side!

Back to Black

 

Jessie J is one celebrity that seems to be able to carry any hair style! In March, she went from having long dark locks straight to the extreme of shaving it all off, then dying it blonde. But of course, this gorgeous singer rocked her new style and it then became her signature look. And the world loved it! But, from her instagram, Jessie J obviously needed a change and went back to her dark hair. Although this beauty clearly has no bad hair days, we prefer her striking blonde hair!

Summer Style Guide for Blondes - Inspiration Madonna & Reese

With summer just around the corner your not along if your wanting to add some life into your hair colour.

Most want to go lighter and brighter in the summer months although summer 2012 is more about the rich and bright colours rather that over bleached-out ones that damage your hair.

Light blonde tresses are all the rage, but don’t pull out the bleach just yet! Blonde shades are in, but the key for summer 2012 is keeping them natural looking. This means avoiding the platinum look and opting for natural golden hues.

If your hair is already light, you can add a slightly brighter shade for the summer season. One color trend is sunny, golden blonde hues to give your hair a sun-kissed look.

Lattouf Hair & Day Spa Style inspirations this season for summer blondes are Reese Witherspoon’s light golden shade or Madonna’s buttery blonde.

Kelly Osbourne & her fresh ideas

Kelly reminds us that fashion can be fun. She’s grown from the awkward, punky girl we remember from The Osbournes into a svelte, quirky trendsetter. Her style has matured too, but the playful touches, like the towering topknot she wore to the Chris Benz show last week, or the bushy-browed shades she donned for the Fashion Week in London, tend to accompany her ensembles. She was one of the first to wear pastel colored hair, and her lavender locks have become a signature look. She always seems ahead of the trend, a perfect fit for Fashion Police. She’s also not afraid of color, and her vibrant outfits tend to mix fashion inspirations, drawing from a variety of decades and subcultures. She’s also the face of Madonna’s clothing line, Material Girl, proving that she inspires one of her own fashion role models. Next time you feel jaded by the prospect of picking out what to wear, look to Miss Osbourne for some fresh ideas.

Katy Perry Does Black

Katy Perry Does Black

“The Queen of Color” as we’ve dubbed her before stepped out to the VMA Awards with black hair. Though quite familiar for most women, we would imagine Katy wearing anything but. We are loving the simple elegance this dark hue brings to her fair skin and features. The cascading waves work in perfect harmony with the deep and rich color for a look that is absolutely stunning.

Blue Hair Inspiration

Hair Color Inspiration: In To The Blue

Blue hair, who knew! Katie Perry, the summer’s unofficial queen of color, has made what was once Grandma’s favorite shade into a burning hipster trend. It may appear unnatural, yet this season’s range of pastel hues has opened the door to a new wave of creative dyes. By bleaching, you can create a canvas to glaze to almost any shade. Or you can dip-dye or use ombre effects to create pockets of pastel blue that accent the shape of the cut. Read on for tips on going blue…



Step: This is not the color to do at home! It has a tendency to go green if put on top of the wrong color base. Basic color theory rules apply –– i.e.: if you put blue on top of yellow you get green. Be sure to ask your colorist on the best way forward.

Step: A salon colorist should pre-lighten hair, then glaze to tone to blue. Alternatively, for splashes of blue, expect the color to be painted on by hand.

Step: Pastel shades fade fast. It’s a good idea to wet shampoo less, and use refinish dry shampoo to dry clean hair. You should also avoid too much heat-tool styling, and if you do use irons, make sure to prep hair with thermal protector first.
