New romantic hairstyles
recall glamor goddess era

STRONG, confident shapes
softened with waves and
curls form the newest direc-
tions in hair design this year.

By RAYMOND HENNESSEY

In many respects, it is a rather
romantic mood in hairstyling that
recalls some of the glamor goddess
looks of another era. Some of the
elements used to achieve the
newest styles are also borrowed
from the past, such as marcel wav-
ing and finger waving — tech-
niques that are used to add interest
to more structured, textured styles.

Texture surfaces quite literally in
the new hair designs. But, if your
hair is not naturally full-bodied
and textured don’t worry. Today
there is a wide range of perming
techniques including those that
provide a texturizing effect as op-
posed to curl. Such a perm will
give you the foundation required
for many of the new structured
shapes, as well as contribute to
manageability.

Being able to manage one’s hair
easily is always a bonus, especially
for those on the go. Your hair-
dresser can be a great help and
resource in advising you on the
type of products or equipment that
will help you maintain your look.
Many styles benefit from styling
aids available today, such as gels,
mousses and lotions. Ask your sty-
list to show you how to use such
products to create different effects
with your style and to explain their
advantages and disadvantages. For
example, lotions tend to be the
mildest in strength, with gels and
mousses the firmest. Ask what ef-
fects are possible when these pro-
ducts are applied to wet hair versus
dry hair. .

You should aiso be aware of the
benefits of various styling tools.
For example, if you blow dry your
hair, there are a number of dif-
ferent effects possible depending
on your hair cut, the techniques
used with the blow-dryer and even
the type, size and shape of brush
that you use as you work with the
dryer. When you change your
hairstyle, watch your hairdresser
carefully when your hair is being
dried. Don’t hesitate to ask her or
him to actually show you the pro-
per styling technique.

Hair blowers, curling irons, and
heated rollers are all traditional
styling tools but some techniques
such as scrunch-drying may be less
familiar. In this new and relatively
