“With starlets debuting new short tresses, this trend it bound to catch on—fast,” explain Pirri Brothers, Piero and Luigi. But how can you pull off fabulous short hair? “You must take your personal style, face shape and hair texture into consideration and make it you.” With simple tips from the Italian born Pirri brothers (www.pirrihairgroup.com), you can sport celeb-inspired short dos best fit for a new you this New Year.

The demi-bob, a bob that falls anywhere between the mid-neck and shoulders, is one of this year’s hottest trends.  Seen on actresses and singers, like Katy Perry and Shakira and even a feathered demi-bob on Cameron Diaz, the look can be adjusted to fit each individual’s personal style and preference.

TIPS: If you have a defined jaw, compliment it with a bob that hits right at the jawbone. If you have a round face keep your bob closer to shoulder’s length and avoid going too short. Have an oval face? Try added fringe and angles with your demi-bob. If you want an edgier look, try Katy Perry’s cut in a fierce black or keep it sweet/edgy with strawberry blonde. This look works best with straight and slightly wavy hair. If you have coarse or curly hair, tame you hair with the right products. The Pirri Brothers recommend applying Pirri Elements Nature’s Breeze detangler & leave-in conditioner (www.pirrihairgroup.com).

As Michelle Williams, Emma Watson and Ashley Simpson turned heads recently sporting pixie dos, channeling your inner Twiggy is number two on our list for big hair trends for 2012. The pixie cut can be modern, classic and edgy.

TIPS: The pixie do works great on petite faces and fine features. Tiny bangs will further open up the face. If you have an oval face—don’t nix the idea of rocking this trendy do. Ask your stylist to do a razor cut that compliments your face shape, not one that elongates it. If you have a round face shape, you may want to opt for the demi-bob for a slimming effect.  However, anyone can confidently sport the pixie do with the right professional help. The pixie do can be either sweet or edgy so let your stylist know your preference. Choose a hairstylist you trust—this is very important when deciding to go with a much shorter do. Side swept bangs give Ashley a modern yet edgy look. Be sure to ask your hairdresser for daily styling tips. And, styling products are key to styling your new pixie right. The Pirri Brothers recommend Pirri Elements Lava Glaze Smooth & Relaxing Serum (www.pirrihairgroup.com) making your short locks easier to manage.

About the Pirri Brothers, Piero and Luigi: www.pirrihairgroup.com

Born in Italy, the Pirri Brothers first developed hair styles for the elegant salons of the southern region of Calabria, then moving to London to continue their education for advanced technical skills. Being surrounded by Europe’s most prominent talent, in a city with sharp and constantly evolving style they possess the essence of Europe at their fingertips and have created and conceptualized trend setting styles that have graced fashion and beauty magazines worldwide.

With over 20 years of experience, the Pirri brothers want to share their knowledge and technical skill with the hairdressers of today and tomorrow. The Pirri Education Academy was designed to work with the individual to elevate their skills for cut and color to the next level.
