5 Ways to Get Creative with Your Hairstyle

Some say that changing your hairstyle is the easiest way to change your life. When seeking a new, edgy lifestyle, adopting a new hairstyle is the perfect way to make a quick change. These changes don’t have to be lasting, hair color, cut and styles can all be changed over and over again. Use these 5 unconventional ideas to get started on living life to the fullest.

Wild Pop of Color

Nothing catches a person’s eye like a shocking color of vibrant hair. Wild colored hairstyles can be as imaginative and edgy as you wish them to be. The tips of the hair alone can be colored, or striking panels in shades of green, purple or blue may be applied to natural hair tones. Your entire head is a canvass that can be painted with various shades of color as well. Choose a color that fits your personality, or try out rainbows, variant shading techniques or brightly-colored bangs.

Jagged Cut

Most people are accustomed to seeing even, carefully-trimmed hair.  Jagged, textured hair styles are an edgy look that gives both definition and depth to your style. Sport uneven bangs, or sharply angle hair toward or away from the face in a jagged layered look. Try wearing one side of your hair long while the other is in short, choppy strands or shaved completely. Spiky bangs or spikes all over give a rebellious look that is easy to care for and maintain.

Cool Cornrows

Cornrows help display a creative, passionate personality. This look has always been especially popular among peaceful protesters and the hippie culture. They can be created in thick or thin rows and work well on both sexes. They are simple to style in various ways, though when you leave them down and alone, it still maintains this unique hair style without any effort. Once established, they are very simple to care for. Dreadlocks are also a popular unconventional look.

Hip Braids

Even though you may not want braids all around your head, you can still make a bold statement with strategically-placed braids. Braid small sections of your hair and wrap them up into funky twists that encircle your head. Place in some wire to bend and sculpt your braids into strange angles that veer away from your face. Braid small sections of your hair and weave them into other looks. Dangle braided bangs down your face or use them as a hair tie by wrapping them around the rest of your hair.

Funky Accessories

An easy, non-permanent way to change your hair style is to invest in some fun accessories. Try some clip-on hair extensions in exotic colors, or add beads to your braids. Clip your hair up in a wide variety of clips, pins and other accessories and then add in unexpected items to peek from your hair, such as a chopstick or small doll. Stick jewels throughout your hair to make it sparkle, and add some glitter to wash out later for an even brighter look.

Whatever you decide to do to make your hairstyle pop, make sure that you use quality products for the best results.  Schedule a consultation appointment with your stylist to help get you started on the path to your new style.
