Hair Pinned to a Beehive Shape

Long blonde hair pinned into a beehive shape
 
One of the most fascinating and outrageous styles to ever walk the earth is the famous beehive. This is one hairstyle that will never be overlooked. The biggest and highest of them all comes in a modernized and softened version with a long fringe, artfully curved and swept along the side of her face.
 
This long feature is joined by a small free falling strand on the left side of the photo and a good handful of hair tumbling out of the creative construction on the other side. The color is a soft shade of pale gold with highlights in a very light baby blonde.
 
To style this semi updo, the hair, except for the fringe and the open strands on the sides, was taken to the top, teased or back combed and pinned to the beehive shape over a large bun ring. The latter gives it more hold, height and secures the rounded shape. The free strands are gently curled, either with large rollers or the quick way over a curling iron.
 

Lash Length Fringe

Go for the sassy this year! Short hair is attractive and even more so in a light blonde hair color. This charming pixie cut is shaped to hug the head closely and all of the fine texture in the tips breaks up the cutting line and gives it its very sexy dynamic.
 
Styling follows the trend of diagonal lines, which puts movement and pizzazz in the short tresses. This is especially effective in the lash length fringe.
 
Yet, the most fascinating element is the color. Subtle effects are highly intriguing to say the least. Light honey colored blonde is freshened up with almost platinum highlights. Blindingly beautiful and without escape.
 

Long Hairstyle with a Heavy Fringe

Long straight hairstyle featuring a heavy fringe and face framing layers
 
Face framing layers with the finest texture runs in a perfect curve all around her features. The combination of very long, sleek hair and this precise cut comes with a little bit of retro flavor, but a lot of modern technique and a very sophisticated vibe.
 
The finesse begins with the texture, as fine as a feather and it ends with the honey blonde hair color that is invigorated by golden blonde shades.
 
For styling the hair was blown dry over a good styling brush, pulling it straight. The finish was given with a hot iron. A little gloss or shine spray and ready is a fascinating long hairstyle that combines the old and the new like no other.
 

Sweeping Fringe

Keep those colors flowing. In all aspects! The shape is already fabulous with its deep side part and the sweeping fringe. In comes the color with tones of baby blonde, biscuit and some caramel accents and the combination is unbeatable.
 
Movement, style and the soft yet powerful feminine vibe come with a modern short bob haircut, styled with an effortless looking result.
 
An extra and very beautiful touch is the smooth upward lift and gentle curve on one side. A blow dryer and a medium small round brush can do the trick. Finish with fingers to tousle the hair up just slightly and preserve the style with a mist of hairspray.
