Some of the ways I try and keep abreast of the current trends is look at the various clues around.
Some times it is a little celebrity info from the TV, Victoria Beckham is wearing this particular look, or an event like the Oscar's you can see celebrities wearing their hair is a different way.
Keeping in with you local hairdressing rep or agent, can also be a source for where they think the current trends will go.
I tend to book a 30 minute appointment out for their monthly visit, this takes care of most of my ordering of stock for the month so it makes good time management sense, and it also gives me a chance to sit down with them so they can show their current offers.
I have dealt with most of the big companies over the years, but always remained loyal to Wella, because of there commitment to the trade, without fail, they produce an offer or incentive to help keep me motivated and up-to-date with what is going on throughout the country.
Look what is happening in the glossy's, again this is another source of information, and it is when you put all this information together, the clues start to add up, you begin to get a clearer picture of where the hairdressing current trends are going.
Sometimes they do seem to heading in one direction, but a different look will take over, so go with the flow.
Clients will make suggestions to you, and not actually say they want it like a certain celebrity, but this is what they are trying to say without sounding too obvious.
So look for the clues and put them together to keep current with your hairdressing trends.
Enjoy your hairdressing.
