My Favorite ‘50 Shades of Grey’ Character ~
I, like everyone else went to watch 50 shades of Grey last night ~ on opening night. Yes I read all the books and absolutely hated them. Which meant that I was pleasantly surprised that I did not vomit while watching this movie. I’m not here to add yet another review to the other thousands out there but I really wanted to draw attention to my favorite ‘character’ in the movie that caught my attention!
From the very beginning, Anastasia Steele’s fringe (bangs) had a life of its own, I couldn’t help but notice, it went short, and then longer and back to short again, up and down, choppy to straight, full to split, all within the 90 miles she drove from home to Seattle.
Not that I didn’t like them, in fact we (as in me and my Dekko hairdresser mates who went) were convinced clients would now be coming in asking for the Anastasia fringe. Yikes – which part? Dakota Johnson’s hairdresser Mark Townsend will be happy his client is the talk of the town, although he didn’t actually cut the fringe for the movie, sorry I cant give credit to whoever did do it.
But anyway, it must’ve been really really tough for the continuity team, I know how hard it is to keep a choppy fringe the same every time you cut it, let alone for every scene! Anyway, just for fun, here’s what I mean…
And in my humble opinion, If I were a client and wanted this fringe, I would take this picture in to show the stylist..
SS15 Trend Overview
The 2015 Spring Summer Fashion Show showed up in 4 main categories this year, drawing inspiration from very different looks and influences. Here’s a peek into hair for the different sections:
Monastic Yen – The Look
A effortless and minimalist hair and make-up look with a hint of Japanese influence
Resort Prive – The Look
Sporty, poolside glamour. Sport and athletic influences combine with feminine glamour for a fresh and modern make-up and hair aesthetic
The Wanderer – The Look
A bohemian beauty with an urban edge. Hair and make-up looks with a nostalgic 1970s influence.
The Wonder Years – The Look
Romantic and feminine with a retro twist. Polished and sleek hair teams with bold yet immaculate make-up in rich tones
Pierced Braids!!
Found this article on Refinery29 about pierced braids. A nice unique way of dressing hair up and down at the same time. I would call it a ‘punk princess’ look. Rita Ora, Kelly Osborne and hairstylist Kristin Ess, all adorned with hoops, loops and safety pins to accent their braids.
What do you think? Would you wear it or not?
Jared Leto – Again
Plenty was written tonight about Jared Leto at the Golden Globe’s, Forget Man Buns they say, the next trend for men is the Man Braid!
Hey, but did no one but me notice how dark and wiggy his hairline was from the front? Of course I know its not a wig, I’m sure Jared and his hairline is as youthful as his face and body, but please Jared, hold off on that dark tint Luv’ its abit heavy looking. (Think John Travolta!) Other than that, gorgeous as usual, even with the Man Braid!
Golden Globes 2015 Hair
‘Downton Abbey’ certainly comes to my mind with this years Globes hair. I noticed there were a lot of waves going on, polished neat hair that shows the 20’s influence’s coming through. I have to say when it comes to Finger Waving, no one does it better than those hairstylists who coif the hair and wigs on Downton. To me, Hair dressing, especially finger waving is a special talent that less hairdressers are able to achieve. I am always amazed when I’m watching the hair on the show,‘kudos to those talented people.
With that in mind, here are some ‘Downton’ inspired looks that I loved. My top favorite is Jessica Chastain with her fabulous wavy one sided classic look. Others shown are Alison Williams, Ruth Wilson, Zosia Mamet, Diane Kruger and Amy Adams, all with their classy wavy hair.
Other styles of hair that I admired from tonight that stood out for me are – Rosamund Pike with her perfect Vidal Sassoon Bob cut by Tina Haukjaer Anderson , Sienna Miller with her razored Bob, Helen Mirren with her classic short hairstyle, Emily Blunt with here braided hair ‘do’, Kelly Osborne with her purple hawk, and just because she’s cute Emma Stone with her messy bob. I chose these because they are not the usual ‘Award’ show hairdo’s so always lovely to see.
My Pick – Green
I will always remember being told when I lived in Hong Kong that wearing/having green in or on your hair means that you are a ‘lady of the night’ (their words not mine) Since then I’ve always been conscious not to have green in my hair, whether it was extensions (which I had then) or even flowers while living in Asia.
But, fast forward 20years and with all these gorgeous green hair pictures floating around, how can we even resist! Maybe we should just be ‘ladies of the night’ even if for a short stint..could be quite interesting!
