Short Textured Japanese Hairstyles
Guys who are busy or not interested to spend much time in styling their hair can go for short haircuts. At least when compared to medium and long haircut, these require less work. Even if you follow and style your hair like long or medium, they require high maintenance. For short hairstyle people, they only need to wash their hair and dry it to obtain the "clean short" look.

Jennifer Lopez Kisses Sweetface Goodbye
Celebrity clothing lines come and go, and the new one to hit the dust is Jennifer Lopez's clothing line, Sweetface; not that that was a surprise.
Close your eyes and go back to New York Fashion Week in 2001... remember her line JLO that launched that had everyone buzzing for about 11 minutes and then nothing ever happened after that? After struggling for a few years JLO shut down in 2007.
Okay... now rewind from 2007 to 2003, Sweetface was launched as a urban spin off of JLO. Wait. We missed one, okay, go back to the end of 2007, she launches justsweet which also closed after a few seasons.
Confusing? Exactly, which is why it's no surprise that Sweetface is shutting down now. But let's do give Jennifer some credit. According to New York Fashion, she pulled $200 million in 2006; even if that was short lived.
Jennifer plans to relaunch the line in the near future. But don't feel too bad for her, the woman is a business mogul with over 38 franchise stores in 40 countries, restaurants, perfume, and movies.
She'll be just fine; and sometimes, even the best of us fail, it makes us stronger and life more interesting.

Remember our last post... Harry Potter Star Turns Fashionista? Well, we obviously must have had some psychic abilities going on because Emma Watson has really taken her place in the world of celebrity fashion using two little marketing tactics... endorsements and a clothing line.
Everyone knows that when a celebrity wants to become a fashion icon or taken seriously when it comes to style, they want to be the face of a major brand and they want their own clothing line, well, Emma Watson has gotten both.
Not only will she be the new face of Burberry but she's launching her own clothing line and all the proceeds will be going to charity. Emma's new line will be for teenagers and proceeds will go to UNICEF. And additional buzz has the star taking advice from Karl Lagerfeld to make sure her line doesn't fall into the typical celebrity fashion line category.

Harajuku Rebellion Style
Japan is famous for its fashion & hairstyle which are extreme and seduce the youngsters desire. One of most popular hairstyle is Harajuku. What is the Harajuku?Harajuku is an area in the middle of Tokyo, exactly around Harajuku Station, in Sibuya District, Tokyo. In the beginning of 1990s, it is an important area that connects Tokyo to other sorrounding districts. 1n 1906, The station was opened as an expansion of Yamanote railway. Several years later there were various kind of department stores around the place that led to the existance of fashion centres. This area became famous all over Japan after having been broadcasted through some fashion magazine like Anan and non-no. That time, some group of girls were recognized wandering around Harajuku area. Their fashion immitated the style of fashion models in the Anan and non-no magazine. And until now, group of youngsters wearing extreme styles can be seen in this area. Harajuku becomes icon of fashion style rebellion in Japan.
The contrast performance between design, colour, motif, size, and the kind of clothes is the specialty of this fashion style. Harajuku style is divided into several types. Sometimes the style is adapted to the beautifull doll from Japan with white pale skin and nice dressing like the doll displayed in the window. This style is called Lolita. There is also a style called Cosplay (costume play). This style immitates the character of a hero or bandit in the anime or other cartoon movie in Japan. Those style are mostly adopted and promoted by J-Rock personnels. J-Rock is a name of a band from Japan. The assimetrical hair with loud colour is one of their hair style. The assimetrical hair is the hair that is cut unevenly. For example, one part is long but other part is short. Or the length on the left and right side are different.
Wigs for Fun and Fashion
Wigs are false hair made from different sources. Wigs can either be made from human or synthetic hair. Wigs are worn on the head for adornment, ceremony or to disguise hair loss. Vogue Wigs offers a diverse range of wigs for aesthetic and stylistic purposes. They can be worn for special occasions, theatrical purposes, everyday use, or just for fun.
Wearing wigs can transform a person’s entire look. It can give personality to a makeover. Whatever look you want to achieve Vogue Wigs will have something available for what you are looking for. The wigs come in a variety of lengths: long hair, medium and short. They can be curly, straight, asymmetrical, layered or feathered. Vogue Wigs has a wide assortment which will leave you breathless. Beautiful synthetic hair made from first rate quality man-made fiber which is practically impossible to differentiate from human hair.
Compared to human hair, synthetic hair is priced lower which makes it affordable in any budget. Care of synthetic hair is much easier and simpler. But in any case caring is vital to maintain the condition of the wig you invested in. Protecting your investment will give you much more wear out of your wig. Vogue Wigs believes that with the proper care, their products can endure the test of time.
Vogue Wigs has given out tips on how to care for synthetic wigs. Since the wigs at Vogue Wigs are pre-styled, upkeep or maintenance of the wigs is easy and simple. The Alan Eaton brand of wigs at Vogue Wigs is made of heat-resistant fiber as compared to other synthetic wigs. Irons, rollers or blow dryers should not be used on other synthetic wigs. Even hair tinting or dye should not be done to synthetic wigs because it can damage the fibers permanently. The harsh chemicals used in the formulation of the hair dyes are not good for synthetic fibers.
At Vogue Wigs you can find a wide selection of fabulous synthetic hair, hair extensions, human hair wigs, African American wigs, hairpieces, and costume wigs and even children’s wigs. Some wigs are on sale and are specially discounted items. The sale items are equally fantastic as the regular priced items. This is an opportunity that does not come often. So when it does, don’t pass up the chance for a great buy. The wigs are just as fantastic. They look too real to be called wigs.
In choosing wigs, you have to know your head size. Most of the time, the average size will fit the majority of women. In selecting a wig, you may want to consider what the purpose of the wig will be for. Some people use wigs as hair replacement and some use wigs as an accessory for a change in hairstyle. Choose from curly to short to straight and long, from blond to redhead whatever makes you tick.
Wigs are fun but they also need attention and care. Vogue Wigs offers wig accessories for its upkeep and prolonging the wear. You need to have the right shampoo and conditioner, texturing wig cleanser and wooden styling brush. A wig stand can maintain the form and keep the hair from knotting. Never fold the wig because it can deform. Caring for your wig is just as caring for your own hair. Wigs are your hair’s extensions. They also speak about your personality.
Tips on Hair Extensions
Hair extensions can be attached in several ways. The hair can be braided across the head and then extensions are sewn onto the braids. Extensions can be glued or clamped to sections of hair. Clip on extensions can be applied by the client, removed and reused. Extensions make hair look longer and thicker. I would go with the clamp on version if I wanted permanent extensions.
Hair extensions can be a lot of fun if you are aware of the risks and the procedures. When you get hair extensions make sure that you use a gentle shampoo and also that you condition your hair properly. Your hair dresser will give you more details. There are new hair extensions available, the clip on ones, a couple of my friends have them and they look really class!! just pop down to the nearest hair dressers and ask if they sell them or know where you can but some.
Try the clip in hair extentions, theyre called that but dont actually clip in, what it is, it's a layer of hair stuck on with glue with little staples, sounds wierd but actually are comfortable, they last about 2 months these are also re-useable if you look after them well. Also you can put in as much layers you want. Take the extensions to a salon and let the stylist put them in. Should be cheaper than the stylist actually doing individual extensions ( as opposed to a clip on piece). Pay attention to how the stylist adds them in and then duplicate this yourself.
Clip-In Extensions - They work great if you don’t want anything permanent. Braiding paste can help keep the clip from slipping out. Be careful with long-term use in the same areas, as users have been known to experience hair loss.
Hairlocs - This system utilizes small metal tubes that has been pre-tipped with an adhesive. It is very similar if not almost identical to Eurolocs. Once the metal tube is threaded onto your own hair, a lock of pre-tipped hair is inserted into the tube and then it was clamped, so to speak, thereby adhering the extension hair to your
own without the use of hot or cold adhesive.It's important to use the right products otherwise the hair may fall out or be unmanagable. Some hair extensions are noticable but nowerdays depending on where you get them done can look really natural. You don't know until you've tried them, but it's worth going to professionals as they can go wrong, well not nessecarily wrong but maybe not natural looking or the hair quality isn't of high standards.
Jessica Simpson has a hair extension at target that just clip in and you can get them for like 13 or 14 dollars. They have all diff rent colors that match your hair color.
Well for hair extentions it depends on how long your hair is and if you do get some make sure it's your color and 100% human hair it will look much better than anything else but it"s kinda pricey some cost like 22-up you can get it anywhere.
It is a well known fact that hair extensions can do damage to your natural hair. The glue that is attached to your natural hair can burn and split the ends of your hair. This means that you will almost always be required to have the ends of your hair cut after the extensions are removed.
