            Blonde is one of the most popular hair color shades for 2011 as it seems that blonde hair has a certain “je ne sais quoi” which enhances the sex appeal. There are a variety of blonde shades to choose from and this year anything goes. This means you will look amazing regardless of the blonde hue selected. 
                                                                          


    The choices you can make when it comes to this hair color are: platinum blonde, golden blonde, vanilla blonde, honey blonde, caramel blonde and strawberry blonde. All these blonde shades suit women with a fair or medium fair skin tone so make sure you choose the perfect blonde hair color for you.
    The only way blonde will look great is if the hair is maintained in a healthy condition and if the hair color is maintained with proper hair color protective products.
    It's been said than “blondes have more fun” so give this hair color a try and see if this affirmation is true or false.

    Hair color trends 2011

    Over the years hair color companies have provided an array of choices to consumers. With hair companies addressing many of the concerns with regards hair color chemicals, hair color has become more hair friendly. The
     wide variety of colors and shades has made life easier for consumers (or has it made it more difficult?).

    With the start of the new decade, do we decide to go back to the fashion drawing board and do a complete overhaul or will the changes be more gradual? Many hair stylists believe that hair color trends from 2010 will influence the trends in 2011. It will also be a year where stylists go back to basics and focus on the four basic hair colors - blonde, brunette/brown, red, and black. Following are p opular hair colors for 2011.

    BLONDE: In 2011, not just millionaires will prefer blonds. Let that blonde shade make you feel like Marilyn. When blonde color is enhanced with cool, neutral and warm tones it can look very attractive. Some incredible blonde shades that can be achieved are light ash blonde, light golden blonde, pale blonde, white blonde, vanilla blonde, platinum blonde, strawberry blonde, bright golden blonde, medium golden blonde, honey blonde, caramel blonde, dark ash blonde.

    Usually blonde shades are more suited to people with fair to medium skin tone, but dark skinned people can also look great with blonde hair. A note of caution is that blonde hair needs to have that healthy look; limp and unlooked after hair can look dull and lifeless. Lighter tones have to be looked after more than dark tones.

    RED: Redheads, also called gingers, stand out in a crowd because of their vibrant hair color. Red hair color can range from bright copper to burnt orange to deep burgundy. Mixing red color with subtle lowlights can give a vivacious look. Red hair is certainly one of the more popular hair colors for 2011.

    Just like blonde hair, red hair is more suited to fair people. Blonde and red hair colors are both high maintenance colors. Both need to be protected from sunlight and heat. Both colors can fade quickly and become dull looking. You should also be aware that bright red hair showcases the face, including any flaws.

    Are you blond ? Do not use these shampoo

    What To Look For

    There are countless shampoos for blondes on the market today--some for natural blondes, others for color-treated blondes--and some that may give results to both. Neutralizing purple shampoo is one product that can be used by all types of blondes to tone down brassiness. A fading color job and environmental pollutants can dull blonde hair and give it a harsh yellow hue. A purple shampoo will actually leave behind a bit of purple pigment on the hair to counteract the yellow, brassy blonde.



    Another option is a blonde color depositing shampoo. Most major brands now offer a line of color depositing shampoos, and those formulated for blondes can accentuate subtle tones and add a bit of highlighting to the hair. Still other shampoos are formulated for color-treated blondes to counteract damage from the color process itself, and do not alter the color of the hair in any way.

    Common Pitfalls

    While using a neutralizing shampoo after coloring is generally effective in reducing brassiness, the results from using a color depositing shampoo can be so subtle they may not seem worth it for everyone. Your own results with color-depositing shampoo will be determined by how compatible your hair color is with the tone you chose to shampoo with. Other shampoos that are formulated for color-treated blondes may promise to provide specialized moisture to counteract harsh bleaching processes, but in fact, may be no more effective than any other moisture-rich shampoo.

    Where To Buy

    Shampoos that are specially formulated for color treated and natural blondes are available in grocery stores, drugstores, beauty supply stores and in salons. If your area does not carry these products, you can find a wide variety to choose from online.

    Cost

    Shampoos for blondes vary considerably in price. An 8 oz. bottle found in the drugstore may only cost $3, but a high-end brand may run $30 or more for the same size bottle.

    How to have natural blonde

      • 1
        Make Your Own Color Enhancing Shampoo.
        Color enhancing shampoos purchased at your salon or local drugstore tend to be expensive and may contain harsh chemicals that can damage your hair and your health. The simplest solution is to make your own using all-natural ingredients. Start by purchasing a bottle of castile soap from your local supermarket or natural food store. This will serve as the base for your blonde hair shampoo. To make an easy color enhancing shampoo for blond hair, pour a half cup of castile soap into a glass container. Add five tablespoons of fresh lemon juice and a half cup of water. Mix thoroughly and place the ingredients into a microwave safe container. Microwave on high for a minute and a half. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature. Transfer to storage bottles to save until you next shampoo your hair. When you shampoo, allow the mixture to remain on your hair for five minutes before rinsing with cool water.

        To make another natural shampoo to enhance blonde hair, add five tablespoons of dried Chamomile flowers to a pint of water. Bring the water to a boil for forty minutes. Allow the water to cool to room temperature and then strain with a tea strainer to remove the dried flowers. Add the liquid to castile soap and store. The chamomile will help to brighten and add shine to your blonde hair.
      • Make a Blonde Hair Rinse.
        Making a rinse to enhance blonde hair can be as simple as adding the juice of two lemons to two cups of warm water. The lemon juice has a gentle bleaching action that will subtly lighten and add shine to your hair. You can also prepare chamomile tea to use as a rinse for blonde hair. Rinses should be worked thoroughly through the hair and allowed to stay on for fifteen minutes before rinsing. Always use a cool water rinse to further enhance highlights and add shine.

        By using a shampoo and rinse to enhance blonde hair, you should see a subtle lightening and brightening of your blonde hair color which may become more pronounced with repeated use. Plus, the ingredients are gentle and won't damage your hair and are inexpensive enough not to damage your pocketbook.

    Professional hair

    in this post I am going to talk about professional hair styles. A professional hair style is a style that while you are wearing it is stunning and you can feel it the way that people around you looking at your hair. My suggestion for a perfect style is a Faux hawk. not too long not too short just perfect length. 

    1.The most common mistake is to use gel or shinning wax,
    or any other products that make your hair look greasy.
    greasy hair shows how amateur a person is, it is never
    hot for a young person.

    Now that you now greasy is amateur and you are never 
    going to use gel once again I am suggesting you to use 
    a hair spray. It's cheap and better effect on your hair.
    If you would like you can use a wax which is not shiny 
    a matt wax only for textures. The finishing spray keeps
    your hair the way you texture them in less than 10 seconds.
    Keep in mind it is very important that you never over apply
    any product and never look greasy. 

    If you just take quick look at celebrity hair styles you never see them with crazy greasy hair, always professional hair which looks natural with a little bit using a shining spray, but this is important to look natural and not amateur.

    2. Never forget about the back of your head. It is the place that most people forget about it. You can't see it but you can feel it. Touch them and visualize how they look. after a while you can make them perfect just by feeling them. People will notice that you make the back of your hair and it make your hairstyle too look hot.

    3.Try to make your just a bit messy very little, still keep them perfect but just enough messy to make it casual. it can be achieved by using a bit of wax and immediately hair spray on them. 

    Warning :
    Do not make your hair too crazy by over applying products. It just shows how beginner you are. Right amount of spray will hold them in place so you never need to use more.
    Always try to be different from others if they make a neat mo hawk you make it a bit messier with a bit more details. or having a bit longer hair in the back. It helps you to shine between others.

    That is my favorite Hair spray it is just shiny enough , and smells fabulous, I promise you don't even need to wear your cologne. I have been using it for 6 years now.

    Faux hawk style

    A faux-hawk is a hairstyle that emulates the Mohawk without requiring the wearer to shave the sides of his or her head. The faux-hawk is a unisex style sported by men and women, and can be styled on long or short hair (although it really only works for guys when the hair is short).
    A faux-hawk with long hair blends rock-and-roll punk flavor with classic elegance and style due to the way the hair is swept up on the sides of the head. It can modernize a vintage dress and create a bit of edge to an otherwise overly soft and demure look.
    Difficulty:
    Easy

    Instructions



    things you'll need:

    • Hair
    • Styling product, styling paste or gel if you need a professional style you need a spray
    • Bristle brush

      • 1
        Long Hair
        Do not wash your hair directly before styling a faux-hawk, especially if your hair is soft and fine. Apply some thick styling product to the sides of your hair with the palms of your hands. Styling paste or glue will work best to keep your faux-hawk in place.
      • 2
        Use a bristle brush to help you make a high ponytail with the top 2/3 of your hair. Leave the front section of hair that creates the hairline on your forehead out of the ponytail.
      • 3
        Make a ponytail directly under the first ponytail with the bottom portion of your hair.
      • 4
        Tease the front section of hair with a fine-toothed comb for volume. This creates the height in the faux-hawk. Gently brush the hair back, smoothing the front, and push it forward making the front stand up. Secure with bobby pins.
      • 5
        Finish this look with a strong hairspray, and by using a mirror to see how the back looks.
      • 6
        Short Hair
        The first step of making a faux-hawk with short hair is the same as making one with long hair. You may opt to coat the hair evenly with product however for better hold.
      • 7
        Use your hands to make your hair stand up straight. Pull hair from the roots. If your hair is thin, tease it to help maintain volume. Smooth the hair on the sides. Use a curling iron, flat iron or blow dryer to help if needed.
      • 8
        Smooth, and finish with a strong hold hairspray. Aerosol sprays make sure the look doesn't fall, and choose a spray that is not too heavy for thin hair.
