Surely with Madonna and Guy divorcing, it’s time for her to change her hairstyle? She’s had the same long blonde hair for a while now – here are what we think she may be sporting next and whether she will go back to being brunette? If I was her, I’d want a whole change of look for the next chapter of my life!

Take a look at our blonde hair products if you want inspiration on how to get Madonna’s signature blonde look. Be quick – we bet she turns brunette soon in which case you’d need some great brunette hair products!

Victoria Beckhams new hair cut

Yet again, Posh Spice’s new hair do has set everyone talking. This time it’s quite impish but really suits her small features. We’re slightly worried that it won’t suit everyone who tries to copy it though – you should ask your hairdresser if your face will suit the shape of the cut, being short and choppy it can make some faces look fatter which may not be the look you’re wanting to achieve!

To get texture into your hair , you can use the ghd mini ceramic straightener or she mini straightener along with a product aimed at short hair such as the kms hairplay clay creme which is ideal for shaping and controlling layered looks and short styles, or one of the range of fudge products such as the fudge hair shaper which is an excellent strong hold finishing creme and adds volume, texture & definition to hair.

Victoria’s pixie hair do was cut by Garren, a well known celebrity hairdresser. He has cut Audrey Hepburn and Mia Farrow’s hair in the past and drew inspiration from past hair cuts. Posh’s big brown eyes and facial features were also drawn upon. He spoke to Perez Hilton, LA’s gossip blogger and said ‘it was clear that we had to go short and create a new look that embraced her beauty, great personality and body.’

A lot of people ask us what the difference between She hair straightners and ghd styling irons are. To the untrained eye, it’s hard to tell as they are both ceramic and help give a smooth static free shine. The best selling ghds are extremely popular and a lot of people swear by them, however, there is now a following for She’s and they are flying off the shelves as they are cheaper and just as reliable.

She styling irons are gaining in popularity

Ghd’s are slightly hotter than She’s and are probably too hot for blonde or really fine hair. However, if you use a reliable heat protection spray such as tigi s-factor flat iron shine spray heat defender, your hair should be left styled, not frazzled! Matrix biolage fortifying heat styler is also a great and protects against heat styling and damage while helping repair your hair.

She styling irons are are about half the price of ghds so are great for those on more of a budget, plus they look similar with the same classic design. They don’t have the automatic cut off that ghds have, but both have lights and heat up in next to no time, perfect if you’re in a rush.

As the 2007 ghd limited edition pink iron sold out in record time last year, if you want something similar, you could buy the MK4 She Pink Styling Iron. If you want a truly special iron, the limited edition <a href=”http://www.thehairsite.co.uk/site/index.php?n1=0&pid=1920″>ghd dark black styler or ghd pure white styler are stunning editions to the ghd family. However, look out soon for the new 2008 limited edition ghd IV pink styler! Complete with pink lip glosses, it is sure to be a hit for Christmas 2008.

If you are investing in some hair straighteners, make sure you buy a heat proof mat. You can protect your furniture and prevent damage to bedding and with prices from £5, it’s a great investment and saves hanging them off the door handle!

The popular Rusk Being Hair range

The popular Rusk Being Hair range

Ask any American what product they use on their hair and they will probably tell you rusk! But despite being featured in the likes of Your Hair magazine, Sophisticate’s Hairstyle Guide & OK! magazine, the brand hasn’t really taken off over here. So we decided to trial it for ourselves & sent Suzanna one of our stylists off to try a few products. Here is her verdict…

rusk deepshine sea kelp conditioner - An intensive & luxurious conditioner made from sea kelp which can also be left in for maximum conditioning. Excellent for use with all hair types.

Suzanna’s verdict: there is no doubt this is a great conditioner, but to be honest I’m such a tigi addict that I would have a hard time converting to this brand! However, if you stuck this conditioner in a tigi type branded bottle & infused it with tigi type aroma’s I would be raving about it! So hey what I guess I’m trying to say is although I am completely biased towards bed head, this is a really good conditioner! I asked 5 friends to try it & 3 said they would definitely buy it!

 

rusk being undressed gloss - A great way to enhance the appearance & condition of your hair, adding high definition gloss whilst controlling & creating style!

Suzanna’s verdict: now this product really impressed me, it smelt nice, it went onto my hair well & held my style in for the duration of the day. And I just totally love the fact it comes in a pink pot! Yeah this gets a big thumbs up from me!

 

rusk being wilde paste – A great product for creating thick, chunky pieces or stylish separation & definition within your hair style.

Suzanna’s verdict: as this is obvioulsy a product aimed at shorted styles / blokes I applied this to me blokes hair instead! It was extremely managable & seperated his hair well. Yeah I really like this product & he did too. Again the packaging is fresh & funky so really appealed to me!

 

rusk being primative clay – A flexible, yet powerful clay that will enable you to add great texture, definition & diffused shine to your hair. 

Suzanna’s verdict: Oh yeah I got quite excited about this one!  Again, it wasn’t really a product suited to my luscious locks so I just grabbed 3 random blokes in the office and wacked it on! They were raving about it all day & 2 of them went out and bought it! Great clay for adding shine!

 

All of these products can be purchased from our site at hugely discounted prices! So get shopping now!
