Hair Got Static?
Tips on how to control Static hair: When your hair has Static Cling it is usually due to dry brittle hair or product build up..
1. Deep condition your hair 1 - 2 times per week.
2. Use a good daily conditioner, rinse or detangler on the other days.
3. Follow the instructions on the product. DO NOT OVER CONDITION! Over conditioning your hair isn't good either. It will cause undesirable results, go limp or become too protein rich and dry out.
4. Once every week or two use a clarifier on your hair to remove any build up.
5. If you have colored, permed, or relaxed hair, make sure that the product you use is safe for chemically treated hair or it will damage the chemical service that you had performed.

Got Bangs? Or should I say Fringe?
One hair look that constantly cycles in and out of fashion has been the "fringe" which is British for the American term "bang".
Throughout recent hair history bangs have been seen in large numbers on the fashion walkways from time to time.
Whether you call it a "fringe" or a "bang", this hairstyle has once again become popular with many of the top supermodels, fashionistas and celebrities.
I personally like have fringe around the face, it adds movement and fits my face shape, With everything hair related, not every type of fringe is right for every type of hair.
Selecting The Proper Fringe Style:
Keep in mind that ultimately you have the option to work with your hairdresser to create whatever type of bangs work best for you.
Classic Blunt Bangs:
A basic blunt fringe draws fantastic attention to your eyes. It adds instant drama and works well if you love to crank up your eye makeup. The blunt bang coupled with the right amount of makeup will produce big beautiful eyes. Blunt bangs are usually very flattering for face shapes like some heart shaped and inverted triangular face shapes that feature wide or full foreheads. Blunt cut fringes will help to balance a large forehead and soften facial features including a pointy or prominent chin. While blunt bangs will usually work with oval face shapes, they may need to be modified to flatter square or round face shapes.
Super Short Bangs:
If you want to be really bold and show off your face as well as your peepers, you can wear the teeny tiny short little bangs that are the reason they have been nicknamed "the fringe". True fringes are exactly that.
The classic baby bangs work great for oval and some round face shapes, since short bangs tend to add instant face length and slimness. Long, angular, thin or oblong faces should stay away from face lengthening mini bangs. Keep in mind that the shorter your bangs, the longer your face will appear.
Angled Bangs :
Angled bangs can take on a lot of different forms with just a few longer hairs coupled with a lot of other hairs at different lengths. You can just let your natural curls and waves take over...or you can gel the bangs to achieve a tousled look.
Some round and diamond face shapes can instantly benefit from angled bangs which would help to add new angles and soften too-wide cheeks. Bangs that are squared off also will add new angles to a too-round face shape.
Longer angled bangs tend to be the best bet for curly or wavy hair. Longer bangs have the opposite effect of baby bangs. They will shorten your face.
Strong Facial Features:
Side swept bangs may offer instant magic for long or thin face shapes with sharp angular or pointy features. Have your bangs cut to just one side if you want to downplay or sharpen your facial features.
Traditional square and heart face shapes may definitely benefit from angled bangs which would help to slim too-wide cheeks and jaw lines. A carefully created side swept bang can create new angles and overall facial softness.
Long Hair
Properly designed and created bangs may work well with any type of long hair.
Some long hair experts like the world renowned long hair expert Dr. George Michael does not believe in any type of bangs. However, if you are tired of the same style, bangs can add a new look without requiring you to lose any length in your overall hair. Choose bangs to match your hair texture and facial structure.
