2006

I find the last few "predictions" doubtful. When is the last time there was a rush of celebs lopping off hair anywhere above the shoulders? Sure you'll get the odd celeb who will chop it, but the likelihood of a cut like Sienna Miller's ever starting a trend amongnst celebs seems totally improbable. Long hair, my entire adult life ,has been "in" in Hollywood. Every few years, a mini-trend happens where some form of the bob becomes in vogue for 10 minutes(like this year), and the regrowth starts from the first snip. It's a "safe" trend to try.It's already at shoulder length, so grow outs are not too hard.

Real people are more likely to follow "trends", but even for them, indicators for 2006 appear to be about slightly longer looks, more layers, and playing with texture. The flat irons should at least get a chance to cool off next year to some degree. Curls will bounce back, imo.

Who knows though, guess we'll see soon enough....
