Hairstyle Trends Inspired by the 80s

Posted by

Posted by Ruth
Dated: July 3, 2009 9:19 AM


Dated: July 3, 2009 9:19 AM

The 80s was a decade of experimentation, excitement and innovation. It was a decade when style icons such as Duran Duran, Spandau Ballet and Madonna, created a whole new look that was copied by millions worldwide.

Now, in the late 00s, as recession once again makes its mark on style, fashionistas are taking inspiration from that decade of innovation once again.

Big hair, quiffs and bleached blonde hair were de rigeur 20 years ago and today those looks are popular again. But who is wearing the 80s re-vamp and how have they given the original look a noughties twist?

Farrah Fawcett - Celebrating a Style Icon

Posted by Kate
Dated: June 26, 2009 4:54 PM

Following the sad passing of Charlie's Angels star Farrah Fawcett, we celebrate the iconic look that made her a style idol and the sweetheart of her generation.

Farrah's long flowing locks and those famous flicks created a new style that has been imitated by many, as British Hairdresser of the Year nominee Errol Douglas explains: "I loved Farrah's look, defined by her flicks and blondeness," he says.

"She became an icon because nobody had that type of hair. Fellow blondie Bo Derek went for the braided look, while Farrah was distinctive for her blonde, power style.

"She had that all American square jaw and beautiful features."

After a month of coiffing their locks and donning their finest gowns for Awards Season Stateside, the stars of the big screen arrived in London for the Baftas 2009.

But what about the red carpet hair?

We asked Jamie Brooks of Brooks & Brooks, London, to give us his verdict on some of the hits (and the misses) of British cinema's most glittering Awards ceremony.

"There were plenty of up-do's, dressed hair and beautiful blow-dry's on show," says Jamie.

Hairstyle Hits and Misses at the Golden Globes

Dated: January 12, 2009 5:50 PM

While us normal folk are suffering from a severe case of January blues, it's party time for Hollywood A-listers and their entourages with the awards season in full swing.

First there was the People's Choice Awards; then the Critics Choice Awards last week, then, on Sunday night the stars were, once again,  pulling out all the stops, this time for the Golden Globes.

But while some stars know just how to nail perfect awards season glamour; other stars somehow manage to miss the mark - especially when it comes to red carpet hair.

We asked Robert Ari, a Fellow with Honours and former F.A.M.E team manager, to cast his eye over some of the celebrity hair on display. Here's his verdict...

Celebrity Hair Masters and Disasters of 2008

Celebville has been awash with celebrity hair stories in 2008, with Posh turning her posse into bobbed clones and then opting for a pixie crop so dramatic that it even outshone J-Lo.

Elsewhere there's been a celeb-wide throwing out of the straightening irons; as the stars of the big and small screens bade farewell to poker straight hair and said hello to volume and loose, tousled waves.

At the other end of the spectrum were the wannabe blonde bombshells, who actually just bombed. These are our masters and disasters in the celebrity hair stakes in 2008.

Contrasting Hairstyles at the MOBO Awards

Posted by Matthew
Dated: October 27, 2008 2:02 PM

Creative stylist of James Roberts salon in Manchester, Ben Bradley provides his thoughts on the celebs' hairstyles at this year's MOBO Awards:



Mel b mobo.jpg

Mel B

When it comes to dramatic hairdos, no one does them bigger or better than Mel B.  While she may have recently ditched her curls for the straight and narrow, this look confirms she definitely hasn't abandoned her spicy side. Not really a look for the faint-hearted, this head-turning style has been achieved by first smoothing the hair with straightening irons, then securing into a ponytail at the front hairline. After which, the tail has then been split into four sections, before twisting and knotting it into place. While it maybe slightly extreme for most, hats off to Mel B for trying something new!

 


Jamelia mobo.jpgJamelia

There aren't many people that can carry off such a simple and strong style like this, but the stunning songstress pulls it off perfectly. This super-smooth do looks great on the Brummie beauty, and really works to epitomise her elegance and emphasise her eyes. This look has been achieved by sleeking her hair in to a ponytail using a little serum to add shine, before twisting the tail in to a bun and securing in place with strong hold shine spritz.

 

 

Alesha Dixon mobo.jpgAlesha Dixon

Glamorous and gorgeous, this Grecian Goddess 'do works really well on Ms. Dixon. While it would be nice to see her try something more daring than her conventional curls, she knows what suits her and gets it right every time. It appears that she has gone a shade darker for the event, which really complements her skin tone and gives the overall look an expensive finish. To achieve her MOBO mane, the hair has been set in heated rollers using serum to combat frizz and shine spray for added shimmer. Pinning her hair back with an elegant aliceband, gives Alesha's look an A-list finish.

Is Lisa Snowdon's Hair Strictly Stylish?

Lisa-Snowdon.jpgLisa Snowdon is used to standing out from the crowd: when her dulcet tones aren't ringing out across London's airways in the mornings she's spinning up a storm on the Strictly Come Dancing dancefloor.

One area where she seems to play it safe, however, is her hair where she always seems to stick to her long, free flowing locks.

But far from being dull and in need of an update, Shay Dempsey from Zoo in Belfast, thinks that it's the perfect style for such a jack of all trades.

Soap Stars' Style on the Celebrity Hair-o-Meter

Posted by Kate
Dated: September 30, 2008 4:08 PM

Soap stars aren't always famed for their style icon status; in fact to say they can be hit and miss in the hair style stakes is probably a compliment.

But from time to time someone from the Dales, the Square, or Corrie's cobbled streets can really pull a great look out of the bag.

We think these are the best and the worst of the looks on show at the Inside Soap Awards.

But if you think we've highlighted a celebrity hair horror or done a disservice to a great hairstyle don't forget you can chat about it on the MyHJi hairdressing forum.

Cheryl's Got the X Factor on the Celebrity Hair-o-Meter

Who ever thought that Nancy Dell Olio would find her face on the right end of the celebrity hair-o-meter or that Paris Hilton could get it so wrong, hmmm scrap that thought!

Anyhow we don't know who or what might have brought hair back into the nation's mindset(!), but the celebrity world has certainly upped its game with great hair on display at every bash going.

In a first, we found ourselves scraping the barrel for celebs who should sack their stylists - although we came up trumps in the end.

But do you agree with are views? Has Paris pulled off the Little Mermaid look? Is Dita's style looking dated? Have your say on the MyHJi forums.

With would-be first lady Michelle Obama wowing the crowds and John McCain's young charismatic running mate Sarah Palin hogging the headlines, never have women had such a big part to play in US politics.

And as American politics and image go together like pretzels and mustard, it's natural that these two fiesty females will need to use their style to impress the nation's voters. 

So which one comes out in top in the hair style stakes; who's looking old hat and who is in need of a celebrity hair makeover?

Just like the rest of us, celebrities have good hair days, bad hair days and complete shockers. And it seems that most of their hair horrors seem to have happened on the GQ Man Award Red Carpet this fortnight.

But do you think we've got the wrong end of the stick? Are we misunderstanding Lily Allen's pin curls or is Saffron Aldridge's hair just a simple understated look?

On the other hand if you think Kylie Minogue's new long locks her just a bit mousy and non descript? Let us know on the MyHJi forums, plus join the debate about whether great celebrity hair is subjective?

Duffy.jpgTaking us back to the days when Dusty Springfield made blue-eyed soul popular, Duffy has won a wealth of accolades and the number one spot for her debut album.

But will our experts show Mercy for Duffy's hairstyle or is she in need of a spot of de-Dustying?

"Duffy's Dusty Springfield-inspired hair is bang on trend," says Jayson Gray, international technical creative director from TONI & GUY.

"The use of multi-tones, such as sheer beige, warm blonde and disco gold all complement her complexion and enliven her sweetheart features.

"Even with dusky roots on show this look is really up to date, easy to achieve and I wouldn't change a thing."

From grunge punk to fetish to Marilyn Monroe inspired 50's glamour; from blonde to black and back to blonde again;  when it comes to hair styles Madonna's done it all.

It's hard to name a celebrity who has had as huge impact on the hair industry as Victoria Beckham.

As she's gone from bob to short hair to extensions and back again, women across the nation have followed.

Now that Posh is cutting her teeth as one of LA's A-list, it looks like that ability is rubbing off with close pals Katie Holmes and Eva Longoria both unveiling new  - and dare we say it, Posh-a-like - looks.

We asked Skyler McDonald, Creative Director of seanhanna, Wimbledon, to cast her eye over the trio's looks and tell us who is flattered by Posh's LA makeover and who should stick with their own style.

Celebrity Hair-o-Meter - Carla Tops the Style Stakes

Dated: August 5, 2008 4:26 PM

You can tell it's silly season. This last fortnight there have been more celebrity hair horrors than you can shake an oversized stick at.

What do you say - does celebs' sense of style evaporate in the sun or are we being harsh? Did pregnant Gillian deserve our scorn? Were we wrong to see a spark of style in Jordin's red streaks? Join in the discussion on the My HJi forum.

thermo2.gif Hot stuff...
Carla Bruni-Sarkozy
Could France's first lady look any more effortlessly gorgeous? The face-framing layers, the soft waves through the lengths and the multi-tonal glossy shades. Pretty much perfect we say.
Carla-Bruni.jpg
Maggie Gyllenhaal
With her head of shiny, bouncing, chocolate curls and sweeping side fringe, Maggie works the Hollywood glamour look as only an A-lister can.
Maggie-Gyllenhaal.jpg
Jordin Sparks
Jordin's big bouncy curls were in danger of making her look old beyond her years; but the funky flame-red flashes and the cheeky smile achieve a cutesy look far more fitting of an American Idol.
Jordin-Sparks.jpg
Lindsay Lohan
What ever happened to former celebrity hair hottie Lindsay? Those ends are drier than a Las Vegas summer, time to get a trim Miss Lohan!
Lindsay-Lohan.jpg
Gillian Anderson
Okay, we appreciate that soon-to-drop Gillian might have other things on her mind right now, but we still can't believe she took to the red carpet with those roots and those faded limp locks.

Kelly Rowland
Poor Kelly's Naomi-style 'weave cleavage' really isn't a good look. Time to lay off the hairpieces for a while perhaps.

Gok Wan came into the Errol Douglas salon for a complete re-style and is now sporting a short-sided, longer on top look fit for a fashionista.

"Gok saw one of the images I'd done for a men's shoot and loved it," says Jamie. I took his extensions out and gave him a restyle previously, and he was ready for a complete new look for the new season this time round.

"We went for the short, hard military look - partings are changing to be harder and more regimented and have been big on the catwalks.

This is a great men's style for autumn through winter 2008."

Big Brother Celebrity Hair Hits and Horrors

Posted by Kate
Dated: July 23, 2008 12:53 PM

When it comes to celebrity status, the Big Brother 'stars' certainly demand plenty of column inches; but when it comes to celebrity style they're not quite so adept.

If they're not showing a little more flesh than we need to see, there's too much bling or another fashion faux pas raising eyebrows.

And as for the hair... well, there are more hair extensions than in the family enclosure at an England match!

We asked a few leading hairdressers to cast their eye over some of the housemates who have managed to survive the celebrity status test of time; and it's fair to say there weren't too many complimentary comments going round.

Fortunately, they did have plenty of suggestions for how their hair styles could be improved, so if you're listening Chantelle and Co...

Celebrity Hair-o-Meter: Lily's Gone Back to Her Roots - Hurrah!

Dated: July 23, 2008 12:07 PM

We're been spoilt for choice when it comes to celebrity bad hair days in the past two weeks and, as ever on HJi, the Hair-o-Meter has honed in on the most hot and most horrendous hairstyles of the fortnight.

But what do you think? Does Davina deserve our dressing down? Does Agy's icy blonde leave you cold? Tell us your views at My HJi!

thermo2.gif Hot stuff...
Lily Allen
This paparazzi shot of Lily on the blower might not be her best picture, but we're so pleased to see she's ditched the pink phase and returned to her glossy, gorgeous deep brunette shade.
July-22-Lily.jpg
Lauren Laverne
TV presenter Lauren is becoming something of a regular on the glossies' best-dressed pages lately, and we think her hair is looking hot too. This dishevelled blonde style is perfect for rock-chick glam.
July22-Lauren.jpg
Agyness Deyn
It seems Agy can do no wrong when it comes to style - especially when it comes to her signature blonde locks. Despite her questionable 80s-tribute outfit, her colour shone onstage at the T4 On the Beach festival last week.
July-22-Agyness.jpg
Davina McCall
There's something about Davina's enormous quiff here that reminds us of a certain Cameron Diaz movie character... Probably not the look the presenter was hoping to evoke at a recent BB eviction.
July-22-Davina.jpg
Kathreya Kasisopa
She seems very sweet, but there's nothing cute about Big Brother 9 contestant Kathreya's hair. If she wins, mark our words: Heat magazine will give this lady a major makeover, starting from the top - literally!
July-22-Kathreya.jpg
Madonna
We love Madge but she's been languishing at the chilly end of the Hair-o-Meter for a while now and with this frizzy fright-wig it's easy to see why. Sack the stylist, Mrs Ritchie.

Robert Eaton's Celebrity Hair Icon: Blondie

Posted by Kate
Dated: July 9, 2008 9:39 AM

Deborah-Harry.jpgDeborah Harry, aka Blondie
Robert-Eaton.jpg

"Blondie was the first person to use her hair to define the name, look and vibe of a band. Look at Pink and how she has done the same too. In my eyes, Blondie was the first female music artist who had everything.

"She was fashion conscious - her hair colour was loud but launched a look that many women of the time then wore.

"Her style was always bleached blonde but she had so many great variations with lengths, cuts and shapes. Her most iconic must be the style that she wore in the video Heart of Glass - a voluminous bob - which was simple, irresistible and made her look feminine and cute.

"I also like the blunt fringe that Deborah wore with long hair at the back, a sort of Cleopatra look. With her platinum hue, the blunt fringe and long hair was so rock and roll. Kate Moss has worn this look several times.

"There are mixed feelings about Deborah and her current look, but with the re-release of her first album I think people will look back at her styles and think 'yes, she got it right.'"
