Hair Trends: Retro Hairstyles

Breaking news: the beehive is back!

Retro 60′s hairstyles have been hitting the red carpets as more and more celebs embrace this sky high hairdo once again. I think for those who have a classic style and a timeless look, the smooth and slicked back beehive is a great retro up-do of choice.

I want to know – Who do you think out of these celebs pulled off the beehive the best? Anyone you think should give this style a rest?

Hair Trends: Feather Hair Extensions

When I first saw girls wearing feathers in their hair, I honestly thought it was a fancy dye job, but much to my surprise, no – they were actually extensions! Even though I have embraced wearing feather headbands, feather earrings, and feather necklaces, it still took me a little while to warm up to this style, but the more I have seen it, the more I LOVE it. This trend is is full swing right now. It’s like Pocahontas meets boho chic meets punk rock. So cute.

Depending on the color and shape of the feather you chose, you can use these extensions to compliment a range of outfits no matter what your style preferences are.

Jennifer Love Hewitt’s look is great for every day, while Hilary Duff is seen with wider plumes in her hair in a more formal setting.

You don’t need to spend tons to get this look, either. Since this style is so hot right now, you can find the right feathers (real or fake, whichever you prefer) almost anywhere.
