Hair boredom? 5 pro tips to change up your tresses for spring

Bored with your tresses? Theodore Leaf, lead Suave Professionals stylist on NBC’s new show Fashion Star, is dishing all of the deets on the hottest new ’dos for this spring. Update your look in no time with these tips straight from the pro stylist himself, and tune in with us at 9:30pm EST on Tuesday, March 13 on NBC!

Update No. 1: Switch up your part

Don’t stay in your “part comfort zone”—be bold and go to the other side! The next time you get a chop, ask your stylist to switch up your part and cut your locks accordingly (you don’t want uneven ends!).

Update No. 2: Try a new tool

Whether you upgrade your blow-dryer for a smoother result or get a different sized curling iron for luscious waves, you’ll get an upgraded style instantly. Getting a shiny new toy can be just the inspiration you need to change up your hair for the warmer months.
 

Update No. 3: Tips

No, we’re not talking about dollar bills, but rather subtle highlights on just the tips of your hair! This technique will brighten your mane, plus it lasts about three trims!
 

Update No. 4: Bring it up to date

Out with the old and in with the new! Noticed the lack of mermaid hair in Hollywood lately? Stars are trading in their long, curly locks for mid-length bobs that will hold a style longer than you can imagine!
 

Update No. 5: My Little Pony

Didya know that according to a recent survey, 56% of girls are constantly rockin’ a pony? While the pony is an old standby that’ll never go out of style, there’s no reason why you can’t change it up…literally! For a hassle-free style, try a top knot or a low messy bun—we heart them both!

My hair is rather short. I have an annoying colic at the top of my head. So I have off to the side bangs. Usually my bangs will stick straight up instead of smoothing over! :p So on those bad bang days I use a little gel and push my bangs over. (You could also use water and hair spray it) Then I get my bangs and french twist them back a little and close it with a barrette. Still sometimes my hair will unravel from the braid and stick up...even though I french twisted it off. So on those super bad hair days, right after I french twist them off I get a bobby pin that matches my hair color and stick it in my head so it will stay there all day! Just a tip for all you amigas.

I have dark black hair (i'm african american) my hair is about ear lengt, the back came out so its boy-short and its taking for every to grow back. I'm 12 and I cant do my hair now bc it came out and i can't even regular braid, all i can do is inside out braids and they come out looking like poop! All my sis does to my hair is the babyish puffs and I feel like its too babyish! TIPS! PLEASE!




Hey girl. Headbands and clips are a great way to accessorize your hair and add some color to an outfit.

Ok i have brown hair which has blond highlights in the summer should I get blonde or since it's only for 3 trims should I get another color




Hey girlie,

It depends on your personality! If you want something a little more subtle and natural, go for the blonde. Since it's already sorta in your hair, it won't be TOO crazy. But if you're bold and outgoing, try a different color to spice things up! Smile

this is basically what @horsebackrider12 was wondering. I have dirty blonde hair, about the color of Katy Perry's new shade, and I was wondering what color to highlight/dye the tips of my hair! I know its my decision, but honestly, what would look best? Anything from pink to brown?
thx! <3

 I would say don't dye the tips. Streaks of color of far more popular right now. Go for pink. Pink hair is very in.

My hair is a settle blonde (not dark and not light) it's kind of a strawberry blonde because I was born with red hair and then it turned blonde and it's blonde with just a slight tint of red in it, I want to dye the tips of my hair, which colors would suit that color hair? I would be fine even with bright colors I just want to know that colors I should get, I was thinking maybe a pink




Hey girl,

Pink would look awesome! Go with a color that "feels" best for you, like one that represents your personality. I'd probably pick purple for myself, but I know a friend who is totally a blue. Think of how you are as a person, then go with the color that seems right! (A tip: stay AWAY from green. It doesn't fade well and... well, it kinda looks sickly after a while. Gross.)

Yeah, I'm not going to chop off all of my hair because it's 'in style' in Hollywood. I'll keep my long, curly hair, thanks.
