Danial Craig 007 Star Style

Drawing inspiration from the hair style trends of our favorite stars and celebrities has become a national pass time. One star whose hairstyle has become the latest must have look among men of all ages is Daniel Craig. His piercing blue bed room eyes and stylish contoured style cut gives this Bond a double-o dose of Panache'. Daniel’s rugged good looks and suave persona is irresistible to women and quite the catch for those babe's attracted to the cool stylish types.

TO GET THE LOOK: Are you looking for a hair style to blow the competition away? If that's the case, try Daniel Craig’s 007 style cut on for size and find out why this Bond style is a lethal “babe magnet". This stylish ruff and tumble style is designed for any occasion and almost styles itself. To get the look, let’s take it one step at a time; starting with a style cut and shaping.

LET’S SHAPE IT: Start with a contoured style cut for volume with short tapered sideburns and collar length neckline. The crown is cut short for a tousled finger combed effect with a few spiky "love locks" across the forehead to put a receding hair line stylishly under cover. With a few adjustments (tweaks) as it grows you can find the ideal length and shape for your secret agent style.

 

LET’S STYLE IT: Mist with Special Effects three-in-one styling spray and comb in place to dry au natural or give it a quick blast with a pistil grip blow dryer for a full look and you’ve got the James Bond "secret agent" style.

 

LET'S ADD Accessories: What's a Bond Style without a few accessories? For a casual look top it off with a white T-shirt, black boomer jacket and canvas shoes paired with Omega watch and Ray Ban aviator sunglasses and you’re styling.

NOW, LET’S Color it: Movie actors change their hair color often for the many roles they play so coloring their hair is no big deal. If you have brown graying hair like Daniel’s, a light sandy brown tint will give it a over all thicker look and keep those few gray hair’s stylishly “under-cover”. To keep it up, the new growth is re-colored with every other hair cut. This extra step will cost a few extra bucks but it's a small price to pay for a stylish youthful look.

Your Suave 007 Bond Style is a lethal “babe” magnet and comes equipped with everything you need for a stylish look. The contoured silhouette and tapered neckline with a few short "love locks" across the forehead puts your receding hairline stylishly "under cover". The light sandy brown color washes the gray away and give it a thicker look. Heads will turn and the "Sky will Fall" when you show up looking oh so stylish with Denial Craig's suave "007 secret agent" style. For more Star Styles www.georgecaroll.com

Famous Redhead Stars

Redheads throughout history have often been portrayed as fiery and seductive; from Queen Elizabeth I to Cleopatra (who some argue was a redhead). Sexy red heads is something Hollywood has loved from its early days. Think of Clara Bow the red headed “It Girl” or Lucille Ball and Maureen O’Hara with their playful confident personalities. And who can forget Rita Hayworth’s bombshell sexuality. Today’s dazzling redheads; Lindsay Lohan, Debra Messing, Susan Sarandon, Julia Roberts and Nicole Kidman continue to light up the silver screen with their ravishing red locks.

For years the hair fashion industry has been obsessed with blondes. Make no mistake, blond hair isn't going out of style but it's time for the blond to make way for the redhead. Red isn't just a hair color it's an attitude. If it were a formula I’d mix two parts red hair, one part personality, plus two parts sexual confidence and give it time to process. It’s said that Blondes have more fun, but Redheads are never forgotten. Bette Midler (singer- actress) may have said it best, "Gentlemen may prefer blonds, but it takes a real man to tame a redhead."

Red hair comes in many shades from cool to warm and is most flattering for creamy complexions although red also works well with complexions with medium warm tones. Women with pale porcelain skin and green or blue eyes should go for natural gingers and neutral-tone coppers. Dark and olive skin tones should stick with the Burgundies and violet-based colors. Brunettes should favor the darker shades of red to match their complexion and natural hair color. Medium brown and light blonde can wear either dark or lighter shades of reds. Adding red highlights or lowlights with a foil weaving technique can achieve a natural or dramatic look. This dimensional look is eye-catching and far from ordinary for those who like to get noticed. If you chose to become a redhead lightening the brows will give it a natural look.

Because red hair dye contains the smallest of hair color molecules keeping red from fading can be challenging. Small molecules enter the hair shaft easily but also wash out of the hair quickly. To preserve the color using a pigmented shampoo or conditioner between touch ups can help prevent premature fading. Because there are dozens of ravishing red hues from strawberry and auburn to coppers it can be difficult to know which shade is right for you. To determine what shade would suit you best and which to avoid a visit to a professional hair colorist is well worth the time and expense. Before you make an appointment clip a few pictures from magazines with colors you’re interested in trying and show them to the colorist….a picture is worth a thousand words!

Giuliana Rancic / Star Hair Style

E! News host and frequent face on Fashion Police and Reality Television star Giuliana Rancic was the key note speaker at the NAHA / 2012 North American Hairstyling Awards held at the LV Mandalay Bay Resort. 

Giuliana message was inspirational having overcame a challenging childhood as a U.S. immigrant from Italy who spoke no English and went on to became a Hollywood entertainment journalist and reality television star. And through it all, she learned to find the positive in any negative situation. To achieve your dreams she said, you must stay focus on the good things, and the little things throughout your life.

Giuliana was all smiles looking drop dead gorgeous with her long honey brown highlighted hair twisted into tons piece-y curls as she received the PBA Beautiful Humanitarian Award for her work with multiple charitable organizations including Bright Pink, Operation Smile, Dress for Success, Mercy Home for Boys & Girls in Chicago and the Children’s Miracle Networks. 

Her popular reality show “Giuliana & Lamp; Bill,” on the Style Network shows how she and her husband are coping with multiple attempts to become pregnant through in-vitro fertilization. Rancic said she hopes the reality show’s subject helps others who are dealing with infertility.

As the co-host or Fashion Police Giuliana knows that fashion starts with a great looking hair style, color and makeup. She told the audience how having her hair shaped and colored with a few face framing honey blond highlights helped lift her mood and help her stay positive after a recent surgery. She said it sounds so silly to some people but hairdressers knows the healing power of style and hair color.

Anne Hathaway / Catwomen

It looks like Hollywood has a case of pixie-cut fever: Anne Hathaway the new Catwomen in Batman Dark Knight Rising has joined the Pixie Stars of the past, (Twiggy, Mia Farrow, Audrey Hepburn and most recently Michelle Williams). Though she's no stranger to short hair styles, her new ultra-short Pixie style cut has time challenged women embracing their inner Pixie.

From long waves to sleek strands to a sexy bob, we've seen this Anne Hathaway in just about every haircut style over the last few years -- although never one quite this short. The Catwomen actress is growing her hair back after cutting it for her role in Les Miserables. For most women this would mean nightmarish halfway hairstyles, but Anne’s been flaunting her short ultra-chic style cut and LOVING it. Chopped or not, is there any look this brunette beauty can't pull off?

Short style cuts are fun, sporty, sexy and sassy but makeup and wardrobe back-up are essential for a feminine look. I'm a massive short style cut advocate, telling anyone who'll listen how wonderful it is to only take a minute with the hair dryer in the morning and never worry about straighteners and fussing with your hair. And I point out just how cool it is to standout in a world of over grown mop top hair. I’m always keeping an eye out for women with sexy, sassy short style cuts and go out of my way to complement them when I do.

Flexie Styling Brush

Through decades of working with the motion picture studio’s and in my salon, I realized the need for a versatile styling tool that could accomplish a verity of hair styles and styling effects for home care and styling. Out of that interest, I designed the Flexie Styling Brush "World's Most Versatile Hair Brush". The adjustable three-in-one Flexie Brush is made for all hair types and length.  And when used with a hair dryer the Flexie Brush makes Blow-Dry styling quick and easy.

The Flexie Styling Brush is made of a unique durable heat resistant flexible rubber-like composite that is easy on the hair and scalp. The secret lies in its flexible living hinge which allows it to bend in both directions (open and closed) and spring back to it original flat Paddle Brush shape. It has a built-in styling comb, soft flexible teeth and air flow net that acts as a diffuser to hold and dry hair in place.  The Flexie Brush also comes with a unique retainer clip that slides on the end of the brush to hold it open for use as a Round Brush or closed to keep it clean when not in use.

Vidal Sassoon / Galaxy Star

 

It is with great sadness that Salon Galaxy.com mourns the loss of industry legend Vidal Sassoon. A youthful 84, Vidal past away from an unspecified illness at his Beverly Hills, Mulholland home surrounded by family. Known as a trail blazer and innovator, Sassoon spent his career perfecting cutting and styling techniques that continue to shape the industry today. In his Autobiography "The Worlds Most Famous Hairdresser" reflects on how the industry has changed in his decades of experience-and where it is (and should be) headed. 

There’s no doubt that Vidal Sassoon revolutionized hairdressing in the way that his frequent collaborator, Mary Quant, revolutionized hemlines. It’s certain that the Swinging Sixties would have been decidedly less swinging had the celebrities of the day not been sporting his iconic geometric cuts. Sassoon’s approach to hair ushered in a modern era where women, once slaves of the salon, would be freed of the stand up dryer and able to “wash, blow and go” while breaking the rules of hair symmetry altogether.

Vidal Sassoon's extraordinary life has taken him from an impoverished childhood to global fame as the father of modern hairdressing, whose slick sharp style cuts took the fashion world by storm. His memoir begins with surprising and often moving stories of his early life—He then discusses his extraordinary career, during which he cut the hair of everyone who was anyone—including Mary Quant, Grace Coddington, Twiggy, Rita Hayworth, and Mia Farrow; launched salons all over the world; founded the hairdressing school that still bears his name; and became a global brand.

When asked what he thinks of today’s popular hairstyles. He says that although there are a lot of beautiful hair cuts today most do nothing for the face and would love to see some beautiful face framing cutting come back. He most regrets having sold his salon only hair products to Richardson-Vicks and a year later it was sold to Proctor and Gamble which took the hair products out of the salons and into the mass market.

If you skim over all the celebrity stuff Vidal’s autobiography is an inspiring rags to riches story. For me it was interesting to see how the hair industry that we take so for grant these days evolved from the 1900's. Filled with pictures his book is a compelling memoir of a genuine fashion icon that reinvented the art of hairdressing in the 20 century. Perhaps Vidal’s most important legacy is the signature techniques taught around the world today at Vidal Sassoon Academies and his memorable TV commercial slogan __ (when you look good, we look good). This Galaxy Star will continue to shine after others fade away.
