You have decided that you want to make a change to your hair, but at the same time you hesitate because you have to pay the price of increasing your salon visits for you best haircut and colour technique result.
Also, repeated lockdowns is another factor that avoids your hair salon visits.
After several weeks without a salon appointment, you ask yourself what's the reason of reviving your hair look since you probably won't be able to freshen it up.
There is a reason!
The main reason to make a change to your hair is first of all for yourself. You'll be rejuvenated, you'll see yourself with different eyes and you enhance your mood.
The hair experts of B.A.M. hair salon recommend you manageable hair changes for either a haircut or colour where the result will be as close to your natural hair as possible. Especially if you afraid committing to a haircut.
What does the term "manageable hair" mean?
It refers to haircuts or colour techniques that do not require frequent touch-ups and salon visits.
Let's have a look at some suggestions from the hair experts of B.A.M. Hair salon
Haircuts
The haircut should be selected according to your hair type. This is something that can only be done after a diagnosis by our hair experts.
An experienced hair stylist will be able to recommend the ideal haircut for your hair type so that it can behave and lengthen properly over time.
Just to be clear, we do not recommend skipping haircuts, as this goes against our ideal of healthy hair even if you want to lengthen your hair. But a great quality haircut is going to last even during lockdown periods.
Colour techniques:
The balayage technique is a modern and trendy way to change your hair colour.
With this technique, your mids and ends of your hair are dyed without affecting your root.
Even if you grow your hair up to 6 months later, the result will still look beautiful!
However, don't be afraid to try colour in your balayage in this case.
Coloured balayage can be a more temporary option as the technique is essentially based on lightening and then applying the tone or colour you want to the hair.
Compare this technique as a painter who uses colour creatively to perfect his work.
Over time, the colour will fade away and the blonde from the technique will remain.
Also, with appropriate and special shampoos you will be able to keep your colour fresh and vibrant!
For manageable coloured balayage choose pastel shades!
Total hair colour:
If you dye all your hair and don't do any special things like highlights or balayage, we recommend choosing shades close to your natural colour. You can lighten or darken your hair 2 to 3 tones from your natural hair. In that way, when your hair grows long at the roots there will be no big difference in you hair colour
Grey hair:
If your hair is grey or white hair is too much, we suggest you not to cover it with any colours, even the colour you used to have as natural.
Instead, we encourage you to try to fix your existing grey hair by adding highlights to create an even grey colour all over your head.
When we talk about manageable hair, we don't mean that you can't do anything at home or that you'll never have to go to the salon again. But what you can do is extend your time until your next visit to the salon or even try something new if you've never done a technique on your hair before!
Don't forget to have a hair routine with the right products for your hair type.
Layered hair offers an impressive refresh to your style, adding movement and a natural flow.
With different lengths and levels, your hair gains a playful, sexy, and elegant vibe while also removing excess weight that can lead to a lack of volume.
Depending on your hair type, you can choose anything from a light layering for movement in very fine hair, to a more intense layering that will remove bulk and create shape.
Before proceeding with layering, let your hairstylist assess your hair. Evaluating the thickness, texture, and elasticity of your hair is crucial to ensure the best possible outcome. Your stylist will adjust the layering to highlight the areas you want to emphasize, creating a look that perfectly complements your face shape and personal style.
Benefits of Layered Haircuts:
Regardless of your hair length, a layered haircut offers the opportunity to refresh your style without risk. It is a simple, timeless, and consistently effective way to change your look while highlighting the natural beauty of your hair.

If you're thinking of changing your look, read below what haircut and styling suits you depending on your face shape!

Round face:
As round face shape we refer to when your horizontal and vertical proportions are equal.
The upper chin of your face cover most of its surface and your jaw is probably also round.
If you have a round face, choose haircuts that make your face look longer, keeping the length of your hair at the height of your chin - the shortest. Styling with the haircut should not make your face look wider.

Go for:
Square face:
As a square face shape we refer to straight side lines with a minimal chin curve and your jawline has angles.
The ratio in the square face is equal vertically and horizontally.
If you have a square face, choose a fresh and ethereal haircut and styling to soften the sharp angles of your face.

The short bob is the most modern and elegant hairstyle for women of all ages, as it adds an undoubtedly classic touch with a hint of freshness to the appearance.
It's no coincidence that very dynamic fashion-forward women, from Coco Chanel to Anna Wintour, are associated with this haircut as their signature style.
Before the 20th century, the overwhelming majority of women wore their hair long but tied up in buns or braids. Long hair was a symbol of femininity, and having short hair was scandalous for the time.
Women began cutting their hair in the early 1920s, a form of social rebellion that helped women take a step closer to gender equality. This marked the creation of the women's hairstyling industry.
While the popularity of the hairstyle has come and gone over the decades, it never truly disappeared. Somehow, it never lost its strong connection to high style and female empowerment.
Despite the public getting used to seeing women with short hair, a modern and contemporary short bob manages to make headlines every year, especially when associated with a globally known celebrity.
The power of the short bob is significant. Historically, the haircut has shown that some men feel threatened by women with short hair, as it is associated with the idea that a woman can assert whatever she sets her mind to.
Although many women have adopted short hairstyles throughout history, the style continues to disrupt dominant, patriarchal beauty ideals in Western society in a way that makes it a symbol of feminist fashion.
You may also refer to it as "boyish short" to specify how short this hairstyle is.
It became very famous as a haircut around 1950 by Audrey Hepburn. Since then, many celebrities have worn it, and today we see it as one of the hottest hairstyles on Instagram, being worn very often and making you wonder:
"Would it suit me?"

Will it suit you?
As with any change you want to make to your hair, the first question is "Will it suit me?" And that's perfectly normal because changes are made to renew ourselves, change our style, and feel confident.
As with all haircut styles, here too, you should trust your hairstylist and have perfect cooperation with them.
Your hairstylist should know physiognomy so that the haircut fits the shape and characteristics of your face.
So don't worry. If you have an experienced hairstylist by your side with whom you communicate correctly, the result will definitely be flawless, flattering, and yes: It will suit you perfectly!
Style is the inner glow you project to the outside world in perfect harmony with your image and your tastes and preferences.
For those busy women that still find time to take care themselves, finding the best clothes that highlight their image is not enough. What really highlights and enhances their image are the accessories. And the most spectacular one is the hairstyle.
Chic Style

The key to achieve an elegance look is to take care the health and appearance of your hair.
Health is what makes us radiate confidence and charm.
Romantic Chic Style
Hairstyles
If you are this type of girl who prefers more romantic style, dresses with comfortable dresses, selects floral prints and pastel colours, then we recommend you sparce curls and wavy styling for any type of hair length.
Not to mention that sloppy buns provide a certain romanticism to your style especially for long or medium length hair.
Haircuts
If you prefer very short hair we recommend you to allow some lengths on top of the head just to have more styling options. Fringes can also support this look, as they make your face look more charming.
Colour
Short blonde hair dyed according to your skin tone or pastel colour applied with the appropriate technique will fulfil your personal style.
Chic Corporate Office Style
If your lifestyle is defined by your career and your dress style is blazers, suits and corporate look, then simplicity on your haircuts will enforce your professionalism.
Hairstyles
To enforce this professional look, we suggest you to try wear your hair sleek and shiny. Also, hair pulled back in a strict bun combined with parting your hair (sideways or in the middle) can provide a corporate look. Furthermore, to cement the professional look, you can try loose but not sloppy curls and blow dry styling providing volume on top and ends slightly turned.
Colour
You should opt for natural blonde tones, dark brown and copper red tones.
Fashion colours are not the best option for this look.
Haircuts
Medium length haircuts and short frames in strict lines fit perfectly to the corporative look.
Contemporary Style
By Contemporary we don't just mean the modern woman,
but rather the woman who embraces class, minimalism and her unique sense of fashion and style.
She loves monochromatic and neutral natural colours in her outfits and always enhances her style by wearing jewellery.
Hairstyles
Wet look, smooth and low buns, minimally styled hair, and of course the use of clips and subtle hair accessories.
Colour
Natural tones, close enough to the natural colour of the hair without complex techniques.
Haircuts
Everything from long, and very short hair to shaved all over the head.
The haircut is a key styling element and if done correct and to the spot it will look like it has come off the catwalk.
Student style
If you are from 18 to 25 years old, and likely a student, then you probably try different styles very often. You always try something different with your hairstyle and make-up as you follow the fast-changing fashion trends.
You are in that period of your life where you can support literally everything!
Hairstyles
You can support everything from cute space and sloppy buns to your natural hairstyle. However,every hairstyle must align with your mood!
Hairstyles
Since you can support literally everything, why not try something a little more extreme and fashion forward? Cut your hair like in a fashion editorial and stand out for your great sense of style.
Colour
You are in that age that you do not have to dye your hair to cover any unwelcomed white hair. So, do it right!
Try intense colours or complex techniques to cement your personal style and personality! However, always seek professional help when dying your hair, especially for the first time, as any accidental mistake on the technique might have a negative effect in case you want to try some hair techniques in the future.
How did you wear your haircut during 2019? Thinking of cutting your hair in a new style to be as hot as possible in 2020?
Welcome the change which will make you feel very refreshed and rejuvenated!
So, start 2020 with a new haircut and styling!
You're in the right place to get inspired for the hottest fashion trends in haircuts, and below we present the top modern, trendy, feminine and confident haircuts you'd like to have.
1. LOB or Long frame
First and foremost on the list is the long frame. A very popular haircut trend from 2019 which adds elegance, femininity and sophisticated character to the women who choose it.
Keep it up to the height of the shoulders so you can grab your hair in buns or pull them back while you are exercising at the gym or even you can include this hairtyle for more stylish options too!
2.Layered texturized frame
As with the previous hairstyle, this length will come just above the shoulders with a slight layering at the edges with more texture.
It looks fantastic on loose wavy curls and gives a more playful look than the traditional frame which has the hair all the same length.
3.Bowl Cut
We are not referring to the Leonardo DiCaprio’s classic Titanic haircut, by the term Bowl Cut!
On the contrary we refer to a modern very short haircut where the top is rounded and cut all around the head and the neck is almost shaved.
We were impressed by how Charlize Theron is wearing this haircut, proving that it can be sexy, suitable and versatile when it comes to styling.
4.Modern Shag
The Shag is a 70's inspired haircut with a rock and grunge character in a more modern style, suitable for 2020 with textures and layers.
Retro styles are back with a vengeance, and we've seen celebrities like Natasha Leonne rock it as well as our favourite Genevieve, creative director of Greece’s Next Top Model!
Brigitte Bardot Bangs or BB fringe
BB fringe is a very hot haircut for both long and medium hair for 2020. It can upgrade and change your look completely, by simply applying long bangs in your style. This haircut it will resemble also the retro Shag style, especially on the front part.
6.Modern Mullet
A haircut that few would have expected to make its reappearance in 2020.
A mullet haircut is like having two haircuts at the same time: Short in the front and long in the back. Remember Mel Gibson in the 80s.
To bring this haircut into today we create a softer version of it and it ends up looking like a shag with more layers in the front.
Both Miley Cyrus and Scarlett Johansson wear this haircut quite successfully!
7.Layered Long Hair
As we always say, long hair is always in fashion. While in 2019 we had straighter cuts even on long hair, now we are back to layered hair with light wavy volumed curls.
There's nothing better than the feeling of just having the perfect haircut and not being able to resist admiring yourself in the mirror or playing with the new texture of your hair!
On the flip side, a bad hair result can take away all that confidence and good mood, making you look older than you are.
Below, we're listing 12 mistakes you might make with your hair that can make you appear older.
Remember, these are just guidelines. The key is to feel confident and comfortable with your hairstyle, embracing the changes that come with different stages in life.
