Hairstyle Tip 9: Show off a bun

Fall clothes have lots of high collars and scarves, making the best hairstyle for chilly weather an elegant bun that rests just above the nape of your neck. Keep the look fresh and chic with a deep side part and sophisticated sleekness. Add volume to your bun (if your hair is thin) with a clip-in ponytail extension like PutOnPieces POP - Put on Ponys - Sleek, $35 -- they can be found at most drugstores and don't look synthetic when intertwined and pinned up with your natural hair.

I like bangs!

I use "Faciano dry shampoo" since it removes oil and bad smell in another way, non-powder, you don't need to clean the powder at all. Very efficient and clean.

i'll probably try bangs, accesorize, and new haircolor. I already go back and forth with ponytails.

New hair tools ,new products, and always accessories.

I know you might find this hard to believe, but there are ladies of color who are part of this community. Every person in this article is white with pretty straight type hair. What about the rest of us? We would like to see ideas about hairstyles, makeup, anything, that includes the variety of women living on this planet. PLEASE!

Kate Beckinsale could be bald and still look good!

The clear gloss is a must have! Always feel like my hair is my #1 accessory afterwards.

updating tool is a good idea, newer tool have adjustable heat settings, and probably do have dust clogged in them, but boy do they get expensive. I have "salon grade" blow dryer, it dries fast because it's strong basically one setting and a cool blast button, but it's really bad for your hearing. If you get a blow dry... go for a quiet one, you ears and your family/ housemates will appreciate it much!

Agree with Tresemme Dry Shampoo being one of the worst, I did not get nice results when I tried it.

I like Kim's hairstlye. I have had bangs before many times, but i always pulled them back because i couldnt stand having hair in my face. Tip 4 looks interesting. I definetly want to try out the shine treatment! I love the bumped ponytail in tip 6, but my hair is too frizzy. But be careful with tip 8. I usually switch shades of brown (my natural hair color), lighter in summer/spring, darker in fall/winter.

I love bangs. I have let mine grown out. Need to get the back again!

Great advice except for the fact that fall has been over for a couple of months now! We need advice for spring!

Ummm, it's Brigitte Bardot, not Bridget. She's French. But I guess you're too young to remember, so you're forgiven.;-)

Umm it's not fall...It's about time for some springtime tips.

by kelser11 Sunday, January 15, 2012 at 08:55PM Report as inappropriate

why are all these styles referring to Fall? I don't want old news, I want what's new and fresh for Spring!

This is pretty good advice.

I tried doing bangs a few times in different ways, I just look soohorrible and not cute at all. It's all about the face first. hair has to compliment the face.
