The Trends in Detail:
Color
Color shows a wide spectrum in 2008. Cool blonde forms a mélange with warm copper and turns into an individual play of color on the
client’s head. The hair is colored gently or refined in it's natural tone and they are iridescent in the natural range. A sophisticated
mix of color can also reach from iridescent lilac blonde all the way to metallic red-violet. Metallic, subtle shine is a must.
Unspectacular gray hair transcends into noble graphite and comes out exquisitely sexy. Grave differences in colors have taken their
leave. Basically the colors are now refined and dazzling.
Cut
Asymmetrical cuts for men and women are equally trendy and show precise and clear lines. The silhouette remains narrow, the look often
androgynous. The classic bob for women impresses with a concave line to the shoulder and much volume on the back of the head. The
bob is kept short and comes with recognizable contours, slightly layered.
On the male heads the excitement comes from short forehead and lock neck sections as well as steps in the top hair to create
individual accents. A good, professional cut enables the customer to play with many styling variations, that brings versatility into
the daily outfit and also promises to rescue a “bad hair day”.
Styling
Responding to the constant request for long hair, extensions find more and more heads to cling to. Individual, colored strands used
as eye catcher, disrupting a contour or volume. Strands made out of genuine hair are worked into the own hair and bring a
lot of variation. The hairstyles convince with straight segments, that are interrupted by sections full of motion. The flat iron
remains to be a very important tool for stylists.
