You are probably wondering how celebrities like Britney Spears, Paris Hilton & Reese Witherspoon look so gorgeous all the time?
How does their hairstyles always look so perfect and such dazzling colors?
Well, one of the big celebrity secrets is hair color. Just look at the hair colour of Angelina Jolie , Jennifer Aniston and Debra Messing to see what I mean.
Dazzling Color
A really effective way to change your hair is the colour. The richer and deeper the colour, the healthier you will look and the more attractive you will appear, it?s a well acknowledged fact.
So if you haven?t already booked an appointment at your local salon to have a colour analysis, or follow these steps to the perfect celebrity look-a-like hair colour:
Firstly look at your natural hair colour; does it seem lifeless and dull? Take a long look at your hair in the mirror and look at your friends and work colleagues- also don?t forget to ask your hair stylist for advice.
The next step is to determine your own hair colour if you don?t already know this. A good tip to remember is that men can often be the best judge of hair colour, because they can sometimes be more objective.
Once you have worked out what your hair colour is, try thinking of shades that are really rich in your mind but sticking to your own colour palette.
For example, if your hair is a dark blonde colour, but also has some dark brown and red strands in there, colours that would work for you would be reds and browns.
Another good example is Keira Knightley, she looks at her best with chestnut-coloured hair because this is closest to her natural colour.
Consider trying colours that are slightly darker than your normal shade, and always try colours that are redder than your normal shade.
Red hair is really popular at the moment, with stars like Nicole Kidman and Julia Roberts endorsing it.
If you want to dye your hair yourself, try some wash-in wash-out formulas before you commit to a permanent colour. This way you can be sure of the colour and whether it suits you. The usual recommendation is just to go one shade darker each time.
Also, if you just want to look good for one special evening you can then use one of these formulas and not permanently change your colour, but still look astounding.
Perfect Nutrition = Perfect Hair
You may have heard this many times before, but a healthy diet is really important if you want to have great hair.
The stars that look the best are the ones that eat the right foods and focus on a good diet. Gwyneth Paltrow and Heidi Klum are great examples and look great without starving themselves or resorting to strange diets.
There are a few key things that you need to make sure you get enough of that will help your hair look at its best.
The first is to drink plenty of water, this gives the hair its shine and without enough it can leave your hair lank and frizzy. The usual recommendation is eight glasses a day, but don?t stick rigidly to this, just drink as much as you can.
Secondly, protein is really important to your hair as this is what it?s made of, so be sure to eat enough dairy and meat products.
Minerals like iron, zinc and copper are also really important.
The iron helps deliver oxygen to your hair to keep it alive and fresh looking, so eat plenty of red meat and dark green veggies.
Zinc is effective in keeping the hair strong, and prevents the hair falling out; it can be found in seafood and meat.
Copper is really important in maintaining the colour of your hair, and enough of this will really give your hair colour a boost, so make sure you eat enough shellfish, seeds and fresh vegetables.
Vitamins are also effective in maintaining a good scalp and a great overall condition of your hair, especially vitamins A, B and C. These can be found in fruits and vegetables.
A great celebrity secret is the sweet potato, which is full of vitamins A and B and other great nutrients which will give your hair great life and body.
It's Simple!
Look after your health and people will actually comment on the fact that you are glowing with health. Get your hair color right and you can change the look of your hair overnight - and look stunning into the bargain!
You don't have to spend a fortune to understand the beauty & hair regimes of the celebrities - these simple tips can help you copy the hairstyle of your favorite celebrity!

Looking for hair styles on magazines is starting to become quite obsolete, wouldn't you think? I think you do, if not why else would you be reading this, right? Hahaha. I guess we understand ourselves then. With the internet we can all look for hair styles online with no cost any time we want! Plus we can have a direct contact with the pros because we can email them any question we would like them to answer or anything we would like to share with them.
Talk about convenience. It's never been easier to look for tips on how to get the right hair cut or hair do you need. You can virtually learn anything you want to know about hair cut styles, latest trends in hair ideas and the newest professional hair products in a matter of seconds. All that power! On the tips of your fingers…
Let's Do a Practice Test
Type in hair styles in Google's search engine and look for the total number of results. As of now, the results reach a number of more than twenty million. TWENTY MILLION! That’s a hell of a lot of web pages just on hair styles. I bet that’s more than the number of magazines with famous hair styles you and all your friends together can buy in over a hundred years! I think that’s enough proof that the internet is a good source of information on hair cuts.
You can find nifty how-to's for almost any hair cut or hair highlights you want to have, articles about latest trends in hair dos, information on the different types of hair, different hair styles and much much more! It's like a candy store for anyone hungry for new tips and advice to look good.
Doesn’t it always seem that once a fad has caught the eye of the fashion-conscious, you see the same hairstyle everywhere on everyone of every walk of life? I mean, think about the “bowl” cut of the 90s. Everyone had that cut including men, women and children. I kid you not when I say that while working at the salon I did 20 of these haircuts in one day. I thought I was going to be sick. And that fad hung around for years until everyone was sick.
Granted, it is very tempting to go out and get the latest hairstyle fad. In some cases, doing so can make you look like you are on the cutting edge of fashion. In other cases, getting a fad cut can make you look like a copycat with no fashion sense of your own. So, how do you know if it is okay to follow a particular fad?
First, you should think about the reasons you want a particular cut. Is it because you really like the style and think it would blend well with and compliment your style of dress or do you simply want the cut because so and so has it? When it comes to style and hairstyles in particular, what you wear is an expression of who you are. You should never get a style because someone else wears it and it works well for them. Instead, choose styles that are true to your character even if no one else has them.
Next, you should consider how many other people are wearing the style. If there are only a few and the style is relegated to certain social circles that you are a part of, it might be a good idea to get the cut especially if it is an expression of your style of dress. But if everyone is getting the cut, you would look like you were trying to copy off of everyone else instead of being yourself.
If there are relatively few people that you have seen wearing the cut and none in the area where you live, a fad cut that suits your personality could be a great way to set you apart from the others. For example: You see a great hairstyle on a movie that you think is perfect for you. Go ahead, get the cut, but be sure to change your style once everyone else has caught onto the idea. Doing so will make you a fad setter instead of a fad follower.
The Sedu Ceramic Hair Straightener is known as the styling tool of the stars. It has been known for creating two of Hollywood's favorite Jennifer's signature hairstyles. The first is Jennifer Aniston of Friends, and the other Sedu user is Jennifer Lopez.
Jennifer Aniston, who played the character known as "Rachael" on Friends, created as much buzz about her fashion leading hairstyles as the writers did for their character's quirky storylines. During the last decade, thousands of women flock to their stylists asking for the same haircut. The one thing they didn't know is that after the locks had been layered, Jennifer's style was shaped and fashioned with the Sedu Ceramic Hair Straightener.
Not only has Jennifer Aniston made the Sedu Straightener one of the most sought after hair products but Jennifer Lopez uses it as well. Her hair is naturally curly and wavy, and it is the Sedu that is credited with adding shine and sheen to Jennifer Lopez's curly locks.
The Sedu Straightener has given many women the look and style that they have only dreamed about doing on their own. Now, the secret has been released and demand for this styling tool has increased, making the Sedu Straightener one of the most requested straighteners on the market today.
Sedu: Shine and Shimmer
Naturally curly and wavy hair lacks the luster and sheen that is inherent to straight hair. This may not be a matter of unhealthy hair or the effects of too many chemicals. In fact, it is the natural state of curly or wavy hair to reflect light. The strands are bent and therefore light will bounce off the hair, giving an appearance of dryness.
Straight hair, on the other hand does not reflect light with bent strands, therefore smooth straight hair looks sleek and polished. The Sedu Straightener adds a glaze to the top layer (or cuticle) of the hair shaft, and the result is hair full of shine and shimmer. The Sedu uses Ionic technology to achieve its lustrous effects.
Ionic technology diffuses the positively charged atoms on the hair shaft that cause the hair to lose its luster. By holding the Sedu and sliding it over the hair, the Ionic will diffuse the atoms and create a glossy shine to the hair. This will even cause split ends to be mended back together. Of course, once the hair is wet it will lose the temporary effects from the Sedu Straightener.
However, this is a wonderful way to achieve straight hair without using harsh chemicals that can damage the hair's inner layers. Now, you can wear your hair with the look, feel, shine, and gloss that you have only imagined possible.
