Dulcinea's Insight

Revisit the online versions of popular beauty magazines recommended in the "Tips and Trends" section of this guide. Most of these publications have entire sections dedicated to hair care and are great places to look for trendy haircuts, hip hair colors, and new grooming tips.

If you are looking for a salon, try doing a general search. Type in "hair salon" and the city you live in for a general idea of where to go for cutting, coloring, and styling. Citysearch, for example, helps you customize your search and gives you salon reviews.

Consult with your general physician before you begin any hair loss treatment.

Dulcinea's Picks

For hair care advice...

TheHairStyler.com allows you to view lots of different hair styles on the homepage (simply select the type of style from the pull-down menu such as "everyday," "celebrity," "mens" or "bridal" and select a hair color to view the styles and get tips about what face type it would best suit). If you want to upload a photo of yourself to try out some of the looks you can, but it'll cost you about $15 for a three month subscription. Subscribers have access to discussion forums, tips on how to style, and unlimited uploads of photos on which to try hair styles (which you can then e-mail to friends and family for advice, or just for fun).

HairBoutique.com has been around for more than a decade so it has plenty of resources, styles, and celebrity hairstyle photos. However, because it is sort of a dinosaur as far as Web sites are concerned, searching topically might return articles that are out of date (and hair-do's that are out of style), so we suggest you search for articles by year, or better yet, check out the bottom part of the main articles page and see the newest tips and articles to keep yourself as up-to-date as possible.
