At the recent Los Angeles movie premiere of Rift,
shorter hairstyles were in very short supply.
If anything, the Red Carpet was swarming with stunning
celebrities showcasing long lush strands. Whether they were
extensions, clip-ons, weave or lace front wigs, it really doesn't
matter. It appears that except in a very few cases, the
Hollywood hair trend setters are holding on tight to those lovely
lush long strands.
Even more interesting is that appearance of lots of texture in
the form of curls, waves and lots of fat sassy hair volume.
One of the key actresses in the movie, Ali Costello, wore her
tresses off her face with a short zig zag part with lots of volume
and soft waves.
Other Rift female performers including Jennifer Chan, Paola
Menacho and Evalee Getz all had shoulder length or longer tresses.
Paola wore her hair in a natural style with lots of glorious curls
cascading down her back.

Keeping with the much longer hair trends was Actress

ripples of lush waves that extended down her back toward
her waist.
The combination of the lush waves with the length was truly eye
popping.
Joining the Hollywood Spring 2008 long hair brigade was Daisy
Fuentes with her lush curls and waves extending from a base with
lots of volume and ending below her shoulders.
Although Josie Bisset had short strands and Lisa Rinna rocked her
normal shag style, the majority of the women at the 15th Annual Race
Charity Gala wore their hair down in lush textures with lots of
length. Long hair was definitely the trends.
TV Guide's Sexiest Stars Party
On May 1st it was a night in Hollywood to celebrate TV Guide's

Erase MS, the majority of the female stars rocked long lush
hairstyles, usually full of textures that added old Hollywood
Glamour. Yes, there were a few that had short strands
including Josie Bisset who must be out making the Hollywood scene,
and Tia Mowry who had a sassy short do, but many of the stars had

One most noticeable star with especially long strands
was
SciFi cutie Katee Sackhoff who has been known to
tell the media that she likes to wear her hair longer
but has not been able to due to her role on Battlestar
Galactica. In fact, in a 2006 interview she
confessed to fighting with the Battlestar producers
hoping to keep her longer tresses. No such luck.
However, Katee did wear her hair longer in her short lived role
on Bionic Woman, which may or may not come back in the Fall.
It was short lived due to the Writers Strike.
At the TV Guide's Sexiest Stars Party she wore her butter blonde
hair with lots of vanilla nougat and light caramel highlights and
lowlights. The color was gorgeous as was the soft curls and
waves that nestled down around her shoulders and to the tops of her
cleavage. No wonder Katee loves wearing her hair long.
With her prominent chin the long tresses gives her a very sensual
look.

While a few stars did appear with medium hairstyles,
they were in the major minority. Only a handful
had shorter hairstyles. Even bangs of all kinds
were very rare.
Hair and beauty experts who have reported that short hair is
going to be the craze for Spring 2008 may be been slightly off the
mark. The other possibility is that celebrities are taking
advantage of hair extensions and sizzling clip-in hair to instantly
change their lengths.
The availability of fabulous clips-ins, fusion hair extensions
and lace front wigs may mean that even if celebs and stars get
shorter cuts, they can change the length virtually overnight.
Which may mean the end to major length fads in Hollywood.
However, at the present time, the Spring 2008 hair trends appears
to be long, lush and chock full of waves, curls, volume and lots of
bend. Bangs seems to be receding to the side-swept variety.
Of course as Ashlee Simpson says "only time will tell" what
happens as 2008 unfolds.
Summary
Spring 2008 has shown a trend for hair to go much longer, lush
and full of waves and curls. Texture and volume is back in.
Bangs are still popular but are trending more towards side-swept
and angled. Will short hair sweep the dominant hair trends
before 2008 ends? Anything's possible but for now, hang onto
those hair extensions, take those hair vitamins and let your hair
show off its natural textures.
