The Recent Technological Advances in the Cloud Nine Range

August 21st, 2011

The recent advancements in the Cloud 9 products have revolutionised how we style hair. The key technological breakthrough, the adjustable temperature control on the products ceramic plates has for the first time has created a product universally fit for all types of hair. Adjusting the temperature to your hair style, hair thickness and length, means you can customise your hair straightener to your own preferences.

Many professional salons now are changing to this technology to get professional hair salon styles for all their customers. The versatility that the temperature control offers means not only can your straightener do perfectly straight hair but also many other hair styles. For example the wavy look; Soft curls; Tight curls and the Crimp effect. With all these styles been achieved from the one set of irons you could completely change your hair style every day. I try to change my hair style once on week and everyone gives me compliments on how great my hair looks. The temperature control also decreases unnecessary damage to your hair. You can lower the iron temperature to match the style you are going for giving you the temperature your hair requires. With my earlier hair straighteners I had lots of issue with split ends due to amount of straightening I was doing and the high temperature of the irons. This is no longer an issue with my new irons.

To really help in creating these professional hairstyles a new swivel cord design enables the free movement of the straightener, making all these styles easier to complete. I found that with the swivel cord making flicks or curls was much easier than my old model. The power cord does not limit mobility or get in the way.

Another great technology is the products power supply. Cloud 9 irons are able to work on all worldwide electricity supplies. The power supply will adapt to the voltage, thus this is also the world’s first universal voltage straightener. Never again will you have problems getting that professional hair style on your holiday or business trip. I have taken my set to china and I never had any issue with any of the hotels I stayed at. » Read more: The Recent Technological Advances in the Cloud Nine Range

Fall 2011 Hair Trends

July 17th, 2011

This year hair has been all about revival and evolution. As trends are reused every few years they are changed and grow into something new, yet not straying from their roots. This fall, styles and colours from 2010 will be reworked and mastered. 2011 fall and winter has a lot in store from braids to bangs and teased hair, prepping fashionistas for 2012 as seventies fashion remains high on the runway radar. Pleats, fur and bell bottoms are creeping their way back into the fashion world with a small emphasis on biker-punk look.

Long Hair

There has been a draw towards the look of ‘effortless’, simple yet messy. From a simple double knot to a teased bun on the top of your head, these are all in style. Another aspect of this season will be braids. Specifically double braids with your hair half up. We’ve seen it happening already and it’s still going strong. Lastly, for long hair, a less expected trend of the sexy, half up style is hitting the fashion wave. Whether puffy or sleek, this half up style is good for daytime and night.

Medium Length Hair

The bob has been taking to a whole new level with the addition of the wave. Stylists and models alike are not over the bob yet, but it needed to be reinvented; kept fresh. The fashion trend for medium length hair for fall is the wavy bob. If this doesn’t appeal to you, the bob with fringe is also rolling it’s way onto the circuit. Straight, streamlined bangs with a bob, curled at the bottom will also be seen this fall.

Short Hair

Popular in 2007, yet dated back to the 1960′s, this fall you will be seeing a lot of pixie crop cuts. It contained short sides with a longer fringe but this fall you will see a version of it that is short all over. This hairstyle works best for those with straight hair, but speak to your stylist if you want something similar but have wavy or curly hair.

Colour

This fall is not about specific colours. It is about picking the colour that suites you. With all the reality television shows about makeovers, there has been a calling for colouring your hair in relation to your skin tone. This fall also emphasized the dramatic. If your skin tone matches a blond tone, you want to make your blond as dramatic as possible. It’s all about strong hues. » Read more: Fall 2011 Hair Trends
