New Updo Hairstyles for You

Do you need a new hairstyle? You do need to know some basics of hair care before getting started with long hairstyles though. First, shampooing long hair is best done standing up, preferably in the shower. This helps reduce matting and tangling. You should choose a shampoo that fits your hair's needs. For instance, chemically treated or damaged hair should be treated with a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner. Use several towels to blot your hair dry. Never rub wet hair because this is a major cause of matting and tangling.

Second, combing and brushing long hair can be difficult if you do not use the proper tools and technique. To make combing wet hair easier, start with a leave-in conditioner. If you are working with dry hair, a large paddle brush works best. When blow drying long hair, use your fingers to comb through the hair from scalp to ends while drying.

Hairpins are made to hold hair in place that has already been secured with bobby pins. Braids and updos are perfect hairstyles for proms, senior pictures, bridal pictures, weddings, and formal functions. Many hairstyle professionals can style your clean dry hair in an updo in about 15 minutes. Having long hair doesn't have to mean always wearing a ponytail.

Prom Updo Hairstyles

How can I get that classy updo prom or formal hairstyle? First you need medium to long length hair. You will also need some ponytail holders, gel, and long pins. Don't rely on too much hair gel as this just makes your hair stiff. You want your curls to be loose. First, pull your hair up, use some baby powder to add fullness and then tease your hair. You have to slick back your hair with gel. Part it on the side and pull the hair down. You may need the help of a hair rat. It will help you pull your hair down if you have real smooth hair. You will still need lots of long pins.

Starting with just straight hair, you can use large curlers to get those nice big curls. Be sure to use plenty of pins, flexible hairspray, not the max hold kind, and gel if you need it.

Use what works best for your hair. Stuart Simpson

Long Hair and Updo Hairstyles

You have straight hair and you are ready for an updo or "long hair" service and you go to a full service salon and what - they don't offer "long hair" service. Some of the reasons hairstylists don't offer "long hair" or updo service is because:

None of their clients have long hair

Never learned how

Takes too long

Too confusing

To the hairstylist, watching is easy. If you are able to offer total hair services, including long hair, then you'll be keeping new clients instead of sending them away. When you are in-between appointments, this will offer you practice to gain confidence and allows you to display your work to your customers.

Advertise that you do long hair. Let the bridal shops know you are available, along with the formal dress shops. Girls going to prom always want fancy hairstyles. Offer your services free to the bridal show as a promotion for your business. This helps you gain more updo customers and helps the bridal shop. Win-win.

Complimentary cards are very good, too. As always, if they don't need long hair services, they will probably pass the card onto a friend.

How much should you charge or expect to pay for long hair or updo services?

Updo Hairstyles for Round Faces

Women with round face shapes should be hard-working about finding a talented hair stylist, one who knows their craft well when it comes to face shapes and hair types.

I would endeavor to say that more than half the women with round face face shapes have had what they would call a, �haircut from hell,� more than once in their lifetime.

So when this question came in from Elsa, I know she know she has fewer hair styles to choose from that will fit her round face shape, curly hair type and her lifestyle issue of needing a quick and easy hair style.

Short Hairstyles for Round Faces

If your face shape is round then keep your hair length either short or long. Never wear medium length hair style, because it does not suits on round shaped face. Also avoid bob cut. Choose a hairstyle which decreases the roundedness of the face.

Long Hairstyles for Round Faces

Long hair is always versatile and fashionable. If you are having long hairs then cut it into long layers and keep tappered at sides. So that your face looks slight longer and attractive.

The wavy and straight hair looks great on round faces. You can leave your hair loose for looking stylish in day time.
