As 2011 is quickly coming to a close, 2012 is simply exploding with fresh looks and radical styles for your luscious locks! Are you ready to say adios to 2011 and embrace a new look for the new year?

This years selection of hot new styles is extremely diversified offering something for everyone no matter what length your hair is.

The first thing on the agenda for 2012 is radical, edgy cuts and colors. From razor-sharp layers to bright pinks and blues, 2012 is going to be the year to let it all hang out and let go of your inhibitions. Short fiery bobs are some key players this season. If you’ve been contemplating trading in your long locks (or already have short hair) then you might want to consider trying out a powerful chin length bob.

Let your hair taste the rainbow, add some life and color to it. Blue, pink, purple, green, whatever your heart desires this is the time to do it. It’s 2012, bright colorful hair isn’t just for the punks anymore! Embrace it and let your color run wild!

If you’re not ready to trade in your long locks then never fear we have more styles for you! It’s time to toss that side part aside and frame your face with nice even amounts of hair on both sides. Yep. The center part is back, and looking better than ever. Whether your hair is pin straight or decides to fall on the curly side a center part done properly will show off your pretty face. This kind of hairstyle will add a touch of elegance to any face.

You like your bangs too much to push them to either side? That’s o.k., because a nice straight across fringe is also on the horizon for 2012. Bangs already made a huge come-back and they’re still going strong. This timeless style of bangs will frame your face and draw attention to your eyes. Just be warned that they do require touch-ups every few weeks so that they won’t fall into your eyes. Layered and wispy this chic ‘do is casual yet spunky and will cater to all your hair-needs. This is easily one of the most versatile looks and can change dramatically with a simple switch up in the way you wear your makeup or what you decide to wear. This hairstyle is a great match for those who want something that is easy to manage and versatile.

Finally! Updo’s! There is so many ways you can to mount your hair on you head this season! First things first: BRAIDS. Braids are making a comeback like never before. From a simple braid, fishtails, to a sleek braid used as a headband, there are so many new ways to wear your braids. Now go out there and experiment and entwine your hair away!

Buns, buns, and more buns. A simple, thown up messy bun and tight ballerina buns are both in this season, it really just depends on your preference.

High, sleek ponytails. Ponytails that pull the hair away from the face graced many runways and are a hot item this season. Smooth and silky tied high in the back of the head is that way you want to rock your ponytail in 2012

So toss away those old locks and say Goodbye 2011! You were great while you lasted but... it’s time to move on...... Why hello 2012, you’re looking pretty damn fine and fresh.
