Well, for starters, everything that is new today is mostly a 'recycled' or an 'inspired' version of style from the early years. Hairstyles from the 1940s and 1950s are coming back with a vengeance, but with a twist in the story. The new versions are sleek and chic and therefore we have hairstyles that may have their base years back, but are modified to suit the modern women of today. Here are a few suggestions for women who are always on the run to change and uplift their look. For Long Hair Long locks may seem to be a little difficult to manage, but nothing that is worth doing or having comes easy. Long hair look fabulous when styled in layers. This works especially well if you have a broad face, wherein the layers frame your face beautifully. Straight and long hair look really sleek when pulled back into a simple ponytail (A-la JLo) which looks truly modern when styled with appropriate hair accessories. Add some bangs in the front or a fringe for the glam factor. Modern hairstyles are also about braids and stylish updos. Updos are gaining prominence nowadays and are the most popular choice for weddings and prom nights. Updos are considered to be really uber cool and add to the beauty of your entire look when combined with a gown, truly red carpet style! For Short Hair Short hair rates high on the list of many when it comes to modern styles. It can look truly contemporary when styled to perfection. If you already have a bob haircut, why not go in for a blunt bob that can be worn with a fringe? This would work best for straight hair. The short shags are truly modern in their look because the cuts and the flicks given by the hairstylist can turn you from a plain Jane into a glam goddess. The curly bob maybe a little vintage in its appeal, but it is definitely making a comeback on the fashion scenario. The bob hairstyle can also be worn in different ways like the romantic bob or the messed up look. Short shags and messy hairdos are therefore very popular. For Medium Length Hair Medium length hair can also give you an amazing opportunity to try a variety of new hairstyles. It can be appropriate for the wavy shag that can give you a flirtatious look. Layers also work well with this length. Braids look good, too. Women with high foreheads can add bangs and fringes to complete the look. Add Some Color Hair coloring can add a whole new dimension to your entire look. You can opt for highlights or low lights, whichever best suits your hairstyle and face. Adding some color to your tresses can turn any simple hairstyle into a fashionable one. New hairstyles are all about showcasing your individuality and feeling confident about yourself! Ask your stylist to opine you on which hairstyle and hair colors would suit you the most. There is also the convenience of opting for hair extensions if you have short hair and want to enjoy long tresses. These are a great way to sport a new hairstyle no matter what the original length of your hair is.
