10 Tips on Creating a Fabulous Up-do Part 2

5. Day Old Hair Is Best …
It is best to do an updo with a day old hair. If you need to wash your hair, just shower but don’t shampoo. If you’ve just shampooed your hair and it’s too soft and flyaway – you’d want to spray an anti-static spray to keep your hair in place. Or, you can do it the Angelina Jolie way, which is to smooth a dryer sheet over the hair from roots to the ends.

6. Keep It Soft …
For a more romantic look – leave long wispy layers around your face to soften up your features. Super tight bun tends to remind people of the stereotypical grade school principal – you wouldn’t want that do you?

7. Keep It Light …
Having highlights added around the face will brighten your complexion. This will give the illusion of a halo when light is directed to your face. This is great for a romantic dinner especially when done in a candlelit setting.

8. Keep It Balanced …
Do you know that our eyes are not exactly the same size? If they are noticeably different in size, create the illusion of balance and symmetry by positioning your side part over the smaller eye. This will make your eyes seem symmetrical.

9. Dress Up Your Up-do …
Do not be afraid to dress up your updo with jewelries and other accessories – especially if you’re outfit and the occasion call for it. Do not go overboard, though; remember to keep your accessories to a minimum.

10. Practice Makes Perfect …
Especially for parties planned weeks ago, do a “hair rehearsal” and try out different types of updos. You can do different updos per day and take a picture of yourself – front and back view of course.

Up-dos are not just for “bad hair days”. Learning how to create the perfect updo can get you through picnic in a park to ballroom dancing on New Year’s Eve. There are a lot of ways to do an updo but it is important to learn the basic updo first. When you have mastered the basic, then you can go wild and do an outrageous and over-the-top hairstyle!

So now ...try it yourself..!!

10 Tips on creating a Fabulous Up Do part 1

Do you need a glamorous hairstyle to match your elegant night gown? An updo is an easy-to-do hairstyle that will glamorize any outfit. Here are tips on creating a totally fabulous updo fast!

1. Add More Oomph …
Hold your hair up at the roots with straight clips and then blow dry it this way. When your hair is slightly dry but still damp, add Velcro rollers then blow dry. This will give you updo more body and oomph that your hair needs to last the night.

2. Let Your Hair Shine …
For a glossy finish, spray your updo with a fine mist hair. For those tiny hairs that seem out of place, don’t worry – use a fine mist hair spray and spray it on a fluffy make up brush especially saved for this and brush lightly over your updo hair. Brush lightly – this will smooth the hair out without ruining your updo.

3. A Fast Change for Your Up-Do …
Tired of your regular updo? No problem! Just change your updo with parts. Part it on the sides, middle or even at an angle. You can also add edginess to your hairstyle by parting your hair zigzag.

4. Up-do Hair Stat …
Are you ever in a fashion emergency where you need to be ready in as in right now – and you’ve no idea how you can pull it off? Well, a simple way to do up-do in record time is to massage your favorite styling crème into your hair evenly and brush your hair straight. Rake your fingers through your hair and pull them together in a tight bun. Secure your hair in place and you are ready to par-tey!

Masa Stylish-Hirofumi Kera

Our latest styles,collectively called Vague,are characterised by asn airy feel-wavy hir that looks as if it was lifted by a breeze from below.These hairstyleswillgo wellwhith season's ethnic theme. The words "vague' refers to the state of something being ambiguous. What we have in the mind here is the ideal of a mysterious, exlusive, and alluring woman. In other words, our proposed hairstyles have shifted from frminine to cool.

One year ago, the Masa Team proposed a mushroom-shaped silhoutte, which later on developed into the A-line silhoutte. Now,the edges have been shaved to create the pentagonal silhoutte which is more airy. In Japan, people tend to like having more heaviness to the hair but we no to create that heavy look by more airy. the hairstyles are based on the Bob hairstyles, however, we created a lot of layes in the middle section and that is how the lightless is produced.

The styles in the past have a cleaner alignment and digital perm, for example, was the trend for the past few years, and curly waves were mainly seen. On the other hand, this season's collection has more dimensionality, is wavy rather than curly anduses cold perm.

Many of the collections for this season are also based on a monotone colour scheme, featuring a lot of blacks and greys. Other noticable features include the classic 50s and 60s inspired garment, subdued looks that express everything with different shades of a single colour and a touch of the ethnic style.

Vague is suitable for all women. Its depends on how you make the style suitable for everyone by balancing it with the facial,structure and skin tone. Though the styles are meant for women, however, the pentagonal silhoutte can be applied to men as well. For example, you can sharpen a man's jawbone by adding more volume to the sides.

-> Hirofumi Kera is the leading creator of MASA and has been actively involved in New York and Paris fashion weeks. Kera was made chief hairstylish for various well-known brands, including Benjamin Cho, United Bamboo, Rachel comey and Barbara Tfank,during the widely recognised New York Fashion Week.

Kim Robinson教妳打造07/08秋冬復古髮型

Q1. 秋冬流行哪一種髮型﹖
Kim﹕
今季的潮流會以 60 年代當紅的電影明星為主，髮型要予人一種柔和﹑性感﹑親切的感覺，配合 60 年代的妝容 ( 尤其眼睫毛 ) ，將會在香港大熱。

Q2. 男性今季流行的hair style是怎樣的﹖女性方面又如何﹖
Kim﹕
男生的髮型同樣要有60年代的感覺，要side parting，梳理的時候要較貼薄，加上造型啫喱，配合skinny tie，效果不俗﹗

Q3. 08年在髮型方面流行哪一種顏色﹖
Kim﹕
顏色方面要個人化，沒有指定哪一種髮色，最重要是配合自己的個性。當然較為有動感﹑性感﹑鬈曲的都是今季潮流之一。

Q4. 怎樣找到適合自己的髮型﹖
Kim﹕
要找到合適的髮型，先要了解自己的品味和面形，視乎個人的風格，以及髮腳的cutting，要有style，否則會變得呆板。

Q5. 有哪些髮型適合OL﹖
Kim﹕
個人認為髮型不是界定於哪一個行業上，而是很個人化的。

Q6. 東方人的輪廓可以配襯哪一種髮型﹖
Kim﹕
現在沒有再分亞洲人或歐洲人的髮型了，而是國際化，不用限定某種文化。

Q7. 秋冬較乾燥，需要為頭髮做保濕Treatment嗎﹖
Kim﹕
不論冬天或夏天，都應該多做頭髮護理。有時間的話，可以每個月到專業的Salon 做treatment。

Q8. 「削」頭髮會造成壞影響嗎﹖
Kim﹕
不能說對頭髮造成傷害，但削髮太多會使頭髮看來較乾燥。

Autumn/Winter's Gonna Be Sizzling Hot in Japan With Stylish Hair Trends That Are The Brainchild Of MASA Artists Hirofumi Kera & Tadashi Hadara.

You can't help but love Japan for its vibrant hair culture-from shocking pink highlights on a Mohawk do elegent loose curs tossed with luscious golden brown shades, the people of fashion forward natin has made creating the perfect hairstyle an everyday task to be achieved before stepping out the house. Even an international singing sensation Gwen Stefani has taken an interest in Japan styles with album depicting the hair and fashion scene of Tokyo street girls which was released a cople years ago. However, the Japanese weren't always bent on flaunting hairdos that would make heads turn. Before the 1970s, hairstyles seen around Japan were considered highly conservative, where waxed tresses pulled back neatly into different varieties of buns that are often decorated with combs and hair sticks, as well as lossely tied long hair used to be the mainstays. It was only through the indefatigable efforts of hairstylists and increasing foreign influence that the Japanese hair scene began to see greater dynamism.

Masa A/W 2008-2009 Hair Show @ Shiseido Professional Trends Academy Tokyo.

Having heard all about the splendour of Tokyo from awe-stricken friends around me, the city famous for the world's tallest self-supporting steel tower and lively shopping districts with throngs of fashionable individuals to match has always been one of my must-visit travel destinations since time immemorial. So u can imagine my excitement when i heard the news of Masa A/w 2008-2009 hair show. To be held where else but the Shiseido Professional Trends Academy situated within viva la Tokyo of course!

Though the extravaganza took place in the ritzy compound of Shiseido Professional Trends Academy, the necessary research and experiment prior to the event were actually carried out in the Shiseido Beauty Creation Center, where topnotch hair and make up artists from the team, Masa, work together to produce sensational hair trneds twice a year. These designs are then introduced to hairstylists and member of the press from around Asia in seasonal showcases, the MASA A/W 2008-2009 Hair Show being one of them.

As hundreds of guests from South Korea, Thailand, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore and host country Japan, filled up the capacious auditorium, MASA Artists took the stage with a live demostration of autumn-winter's hottest Vague collection. With a snipp over here and dab of styling product over there, the models-decked in tasteful ethnic getups-were quickly transformed into attention-grabbing fashionistas all ready to strut down the bustling streets of Tokyo.

My Privilege Book Hair Show
(Crowning Glory Hair Studio 2008)@ Tun Jugah/Bourleverd
Kuching.

This is the 1st time Crowning Glory Show that i been joined this year. Since i left Kuching to singapore to work. I'm appreciated to be the one joining the Fashion shows during 29 december 2007 and 1st juanuary of 2008.

Rock and romanticism. Light and shadow. Harmony and rebellion. These are what Rockmantic is all about. Contrasting elements that are merged to create a fascinating whole. Inspired ny a Rock 'n' Roll lifestyle.Styles are paired withrough materials such leather and mental, resulting in a vanished underline that creates near subversive casualness avant grat.

One thing about the hair show is that, we took million hours to prepare for it and dress up for it, and it took us less than 30 minutes to show. Thus, the pressure comes in. No mistakes were to be done during the show! It’s ONE TIME SHOW! You can’t go “ooops..”

Daniel,Sandy,Dylan,Eguene(in front),Darren( Stage Stylish)

Rock is all about staying in tune with earth's beast. Harmonious and dark colours,namely ash brown, matt and ash bronze are used to create a picture tranquility.

I learned many great things from the Hair Shows ( Boulevard & Tun Jugah). It was a great time and experience. I really enjoyed being part of it.This was the model that i have to do on the hair before get to the stage. Say ooh-la-la to Crowning Glory Spring and Summer 2008 colour collection! The collection is anything but simple and predictable.

The inspirations from live performances including dance, singing, the circus, mime, marionette and magis shows. Here, the showcase creative interpretations by the stylish. Welcome to the world of fun, dance and the arts.

Shiseido Professional Spring and Summer 2008 Trend

This spring/summer season, the ever-stylish Japanese are going for the A-line look wit natural curls. Say Taro Ogura, chief stylish of Garden,"Specifically, leaving the base hair quite thick but giving a spring to the tips results in an impression of lightness. The important point is to avoid rounding of the corners."

As far as perming is conserned, the trend leans towards a generally loose curl. The image is one of a less thighly wound, more relaxes wave in which the tips seem to flow outwards. This is the season for bright coloured cloths, so lighter toned dyes would also work to complement these."

A fusion of all these ideas, Shiseido Professional's latest Spring/Summer 2008 collection will open your mind to the fashionable world of the Japanese.

Art of Tadashi Harada Zenbu

“Art doesn’t always come in conventional (read: boring) forms. Hair and make-up for instance (when executed creatively), can also count as art. The case in point is Tadashi Harada— an established hair and make-up artist from Shiseido who is a regular at New Fashion week. Harada has an ongoing exhibition in Japan, after which some of the pieces will arrive in Singapore, while the rest continue to be shown in other parts of Japan. Having worked with celebrities like Orlando Bloom, Maggie Q and Kenichi Matsuyama (of Death Note fame), Tadashi Harada is an automatic inductee into the beautician’s Hall of Fame (if there were one). Captured in stills, his hair and make-up creations introduce a new dimension to beauty. Drawing inspiration from the Japanese Devilman comics, Harada’s works have deliciously dark overtones and needless to say, piqued our curiosity.”Ghostly pale model… Long, ebony lashes… White electrified hair… This photo evokes a sense of death. Certainly dark and intriguing…Deep in my soul, I’ve always had the penchant for morbid arts as they never fail to draw me to them. Like a seductress beckoning me to go over, I cannot explain my attraction towards them. It’s weird how I can like the oh-so-cheerful-and-colourful Care Bears yet be so drawn to morbid arts.

Tadashi harada FarfinArt

From Farfinette FarfinART to Tadashi Harada MorbidART

Soon enough Sony would ask her to design a six-character toy set for the Time Capsules collection, an almost natural move for her three-dimensional measures. Other successful figurines would follow, as well as numerous expositions and collaborations with Colette, Adidas, LeSportSac, Coca-Cola and countless press stories in the most prestigious magazines (ie. Vogue, Elle, The Face, XLR8R, Yen etc...) and most recently M.A.C.

Cute, sweet and outrageous all at once, these female characters certainly stretches the boundaries of femininity and gender stereotypes

Redken Tribe 2008
Redken Tribe 2008 :Urban Cool LooksFor The Edgy Individual@ Takashimaya Ngee Ann Orchard Part 2

Being someone new to the industry,attending the Redken Tribe 08 for my first ever runway experience was a real eye-opener. The event was all about being a sound celebration(literally,with a DJ on hand) of cool urban culture and street fashion that Redken has become synonymous wih since the early '90s. The show kick off with Eunuce Olsen,who is Singapore's 1stredken spokesperson,strutting down the runway in chic knee high boots and sassy bubble skirts.With the DJ sampling a blend of urban beats, 23 models came marching down the runway in their stylish streetwear from Skin Couture and Edhardy, and makeup from Shu Uemura.

Two of the New Zealand hottest hairstyling talents took the stage, drawing much applause.Mana Dave and Richard Kavanage were specially invited from New Zealand to help bring to life Redken's Trend setting and innovative style.

Redken Tribe 2008 :Urban Cool Looks
For The Edgy Individual
@ Takashimaya Ngee Ann Orchard

Here’s the story: I won a ticket to the Redken Tribe show.To be honest, I won the vip sit just infront of the Stage. I’ve never been to a hair show before so it was quite an eye-opening experience! It’s amazing to see the hair stylists work their magic on the runway. This year, Redken has chosen Eunice Olsen as their brand ambassador and I’ve to say, she really worked the runway! Well, they say it’s where “inspirational hair meets entertainment” - I couldn’t agree more.

The VIP Lounge.I have a great drink.
