Get The Look

When you travel, you pretty much know what you’re in for. From a beach getaway to a sophisticated city jaunt to your cousin Wayne’s wedding in Toledo, you have some idea of what to pack given the activities, weather and folks you’ll be hanging with. But for star stylists on the job, it’s not so simple. Sure, they know to bring the basics in their travel bags: hair dryer, heat styling tools, combs, brushes, hairspray, bobby pins. But they have to take a more-is-more approach to selecting the tools of their trade: They have to be ready for anything.

It all started with balayage, a French hair highlighting technique which originated in the 1970s. This look can be achieved by using a small brush to paint pin-thin strands of hair free hand, creating a more natural, back-from-the-beach look than the traditional foil-wrapping method. In the last few years, variations on this approach have been emerging faster than fidget spinner fashion accessories. Strobing, color melting, dip dying, tigereye, tortoiseshell, contourage, babylights, ombré, sombré, bronde, and ronze; we can hardly keep them all straight.

Fashion week is every fashion aficionado's mood board for the coming seasons. While many of these pieces are quite unwearable off the runway, they are a display of artistic expression for the fashion designer, so there’s much to be appreciated. And it’s not just the clothes that people flock from all over the world to see; it’s also the outrageous makeup and hairstyles from the street to the catwalk. Every September, we all get excited about New York Fashion Week and this year’s styles blew us away. Some of the things you would never have imagined rose from the dead, like the scrunchie! Hey, 90’s? Forget something? There was also a bold Rihanna exit following her Fenty line appearance for Spring of 2018 complete with dunes and motorcycles.

You’ve seen this high ponytail on top celebrities like Rihanna, but it’s more than just a day look. The hair trick called ‘Pineappling,’ will give you a lot more extra time in the AM. Instead of working tirelessly with way too much product to salvage your sexy hair from the night before, just practice your best hair pineapple, and you’re good to add twenty extra minutes or so to your alarm clock.

When you’re in the mood to shake things up, accessorizing is the way to go. Just as it’s cooling down outside, you’re ready to turn up the heat with different fabrics, colors and styles. Who says your hair has to be boring just because it’s getting cold? We say now is the time to let your locks hang loose and go for glam. At NuMe, we encourage our friends and customers to look for inspiration from all the big fall events like NYFW and LAFW. And, take these inspirational ideas and make them your own. Here’s our list of the top 10 autumn hair accessories you’ll fall in love with this season.

Zooey Deschanel inspired so many women to make the cut with cute, thick bangs. The combination of dark hair and shocking blue eyes did it for the New Girl so why wouldn’t it make the ‘It Girl’ in every woman shine?
