What is a good hairstyle for a mom?

Question

I have long hair, to about the middle of my back. It has long layers, no bangs, all I wear it in is a ponytail.
What should I do with it so it's more styish? And a nice color?
I have bland medium brown hair, hate it.
So what's cute for the length and color?

Answer 1

Im a mom and a hairstylist, I keep mine about right below bra strap. I keep long layers in the back and shorter layers around the face, a small section right in the front bang area chin length. I wear it many different ways, I have a body wave so some days I wash and scrunch it, other days I roll all over with a big 2 inch barrell curling iron for fullness, no curl, then sometimes I take it like Im going to make a pony tail then twist it and secure it with a big clip pulling some strands down around my face and leaving the top loose around the crown. I do wear a pony tail sometimes and because bangs are long, I can slick them back with the rest or leave a few strands hanging. a dressier way for a pony tail is after you secure it with a band, take your finger above the band, split hair in half, bring bottom of hair up and thru the space you just made and pull thru, it gives a little roll there and hides the rubber band.
as far as coloring, on clients with medium brown hair, I either foil a few pieces or pull it thru a cap and leave bleach on (under dryer) for 10 minutes, it brings out the natural highlights and adds shine

Answer 2

Keep it long - about to your bra strap, and get some bangs, so when you do wear it up, it looks good still.
Speak to your hairdresser about some blonde highlights to bring it out a bit.
I have long dark straight hair with colours through it and I only do it once a week, because it stays straight, I can wear it down for the first 3 days and then up in different styles until I wash it again.
Oh, and I am a Mum too. It has to be an easy, quick and convenient style.

Sometimes its good to look at high fashion advertisements, I'm a guy, but that's where I get all my haircuts from. I look through Men's Vogue, GQ, on the company sites, etc. for brands like Versace, Prada, Dior, etc. and get ideas for haircuts, these companies are famous for making elegant, beautiful, "WOW" type clothing, and in their ads, they have to show that with good looking models wearing their great clothes along with great hair to go with it. I posted a few ads with haircuts I thought looked cute, elegant, sexy, etc. but clean enough for a mom to use. If you like one just print it out and your hairstylist can cut it or dye it like that or maybe not even have to change your hair, just tell you how to style it. Sometimes it's about knowing how to style it. Oh, and if you want to check out more hairstyles, I got all the ads below from: http://bwgreyscale.com/ad_index.html

Hope this helps, ciao!

Answer 4

I prefer wome with hair down to their bra strap area. Try blonde or darker brown. Pony tails are cool as long as your in shape or have an average build. IM me ifyou'd like to chat.

Answer 5

Curl it in ringlets... thats always nice. And if you really hate your hair, get streaks/ highlights, dont dye your whole head (or at least not a color like blonde) it never works...

Answer 6

you should get it blonde with your hair cut short with lots of layers and honey brown highlights. i kno a lady who has the same and she get tons of compliment everyday.
