2009 Hairstyles - Long Hair
Long hair can look flat and lifeless, but you can easily add bulk and definition with some razored layers and curls. Lindsey Lohan plaits her long hair for extra texture and life, Kate Hudson wears hers sleek and Hayden Panettiere tousles her long locks. Jennifer Garner wears hers waved, as does Lauren Conrad. Long hair is still fashionable, as long as you are willing to put in the time to jazz it up, which need not take too much time at all really, as all you need do is plait a little, tousle a little, add a few accessories or curls and away you go. The latest and most fashionable thing for long hair, really is for it to be healthy and shining. Every year healthy hair is going to look good, without too much effort, so make sure if you have long hair to keep it in great condition, use treatments and heat protector is you are doing much blow drying or styling.

2009 Hair tips for long curly hairstyle
Hair tips for long curly hairstyle
There is a very old saying “the grass is always greener on the other side”. There is no place where the sayings suits better than hairstyles. While those who have curly hair are envious of the ones with poker straight locks the girls born with silky, straight hairstyle always pine for curls.
2008 Hairstyles Trends May Follow Fashion Runway Haircut Designs
There was no global committee of hairstylists which convened in 2007 to decide what the 2008 hairstyles trends will be. But haircuts seen on the fashion runways of London, New York, Milan, and Paris have been known to become the hair styles trends months later.
Therefore, what follows are runway pictures showing various potential 2008 hair styles. If you notice a pattern, they could become the haircut trend--that is, if they catch on.
Fashion models--or more accurately the fashion designers who choose how the catwalk models will wear their hair at their live fashion shows--aren't necessarily more influential in determining hairstyles trends than female celebrities.
If 2008 is similar to 2007, then it will be celebrity hairstyles from A-list stars which lead the way.
The fashionable hairstyles for 2008 could be a continuation of the most popular 2007 hairstyle trend, or something completely different.
Trends, including hair styles trends, can last for a short or long time. Since the 2007 trend of bob hairstyles was a radically different new trend that wasn't seen much in 2006, or in the years before that, we can expect more bob hair cuts in 2008.
It is not uncommon for one trend to last longer than a year, but the women who were on the vanguard of hair fashion, that is, the "early adopters," will likely get bored first and look for variations on the bob styles seen in 2007.
The other thing to keep in mind about what to expect for 2008 hairstyles is not only do the trendy styles vary from country to country, they also vary from city to city.
A few years ago, a popular women's magazine surveyed hair salons in different major cities across America and found they had different hairstyles trends. What women wanted most in New York was different from what was most requested in Los Angeles.
So if the reason why you want a 2008 hairstyle is to stay current or fashionablein your city, don't automatically follow what one website, magazine, or news report says is "the" 2008 haircut trend for women.
Of course, some hair cut trends are in fact national. So you want to look out for what is a national hairstyles trend in 2008 or a local trend.
It's only mid-September at the time of writing, but already women want to know what the hairstyles for 2008 will be. Everything right now of course is only an opinion. Everyone is guessing.
Hair stylists' predictions for 2008 are being quoted in the hair magazines currently on sale, but it's all speculation. They may be right, but we won't know until 2008 rolls around, and women make their own choices with or without direction from their hairdressers.
Until then, here are some runway photos showing what could be coming down the pike. Note that clothes and hairstyles at fashion shows are notoriously "off-the-wall"--especially by the most creative fashion designers like Alexander McQueen and John Galliano. They show "haute couture" hairdos which nobody has seen before and nobody will see again.
Some clothes on the catwalk just aren't "wearable" and the same is true of the hair styles.
Despite these extremes, as already noted, fashion shows have been known to guide hairstyle trends, and next to celebrity styles, they may be the best place to start in ancipation of, and search for, the top hair trend of 2008.
Even though fashion show hair doesn't always dictate the styles women will wear the next year, sometimes it can set the next hair length trend. (This happened a few years ago when long hair became in vogue again.)
The same is true with hair color. Fashion models can show us what will be the new most popular hairstyles, hair length, or haircolor.

Okay, so on anyone else, the outrageous head gear might not work, but on SJP, this Philip Treacy masterpiece looks amazing.
It was definitely a bold move on the part of the actress to show up to the premiere in something so outrageous, but the always-fashionable Miss Parker pulls it off with style.
Why does it work? First of all, she’s got the amazing long locks in messy but intentional curls as a base for the hat. She didn’t try to overdo it with some crazy style, but kept it simple. Hair looks soft and breezy, touchable –low maintenance (even though it’s not!). The make-up is clean and fresh and balances out the overall look. Her oval shaped face allows her to pull off a lot of different looks and styles,
and this one makes the cut too.

This striking hairstyle was a captivating look for Lilian at the Somebody Help Me Premiere. Subtle layers were cut through the edges of her style and her long side swept bangs were made the main feature of her finished look.
How to Style:
Apply a generous amount of styling mousse to damp hair then blow-dry in a downwards motion with a paddle brush or a large round vent brush. The use of a flat-ceramic iron is recommended to get the best possible shape. Finish with smoothing shine or a little wax to the ends for texture.
