Star Signs and Hairstyles

No other star sign lives out the 'I want!' mentality like Aries. Strength of purpose, discipline, self-confidence and a love of adventure are his characteristics and a passionate fire burns with everything he tackles. Sometimes Aries gets into trouble because of his own impulsiveness, but that too sets him apart and helps him savour life to the fullest.

Haircut: Long or short, the impatient Aries needs an uncomplicated haircut that he can rely on in all circumstances. But it also has to have that certain something: He loves taking centre stage and prefers to keep up with the spirit of the time. A wild stepped cut with overlength fringe (gringe) highlights the lively and direct character of the Aries star sign.

Hairstyles and styling: Natural, lively, modern yet straightforward to style: Messy hair (don’t care)! A trend style like the swag (stepped cut) radiates self-confidence and passion. The perfect Aries style in other words.

Taurus bets on pure sensuality! Full of devotion and at times a bit possessive, Taurus likes to take what he feels he is entitled to. The temperamental earth sign consistently relies on his feelings; his self-confident manner makes him especially attractive.

Haircut: Taurus can be really stubborn at times and is reluctant to accept change. When it comes to a trend cut with a half-life, he always shakes his head, preferring something stylish and classic: Shoulder length hair cut straight or slightly stepped.

Hairstyles and styling: A long bob supports numerous looks. For example an ultra-feminine updo with retro volume à la Audrey Hepburn. The hairstyle perfectly reflects the sensuous and classic Taurus disposition.

A typical Gemini is curious, versatile, communicative and creative. He rarely examines the past, preferring to look to the future with optimism. Sometimes he lacks a sense of reality and consistency – he escapes from everyday life into another world. The Gemini star sign seldom shows weakness on the outside and always maintains a lively, relaxed and prickling façade.

Haircut: Gemini needs space to think, room to absorb and process all and any inspiration. A bare forehead is therefore part of an ideal Gemini hairstyle. The air sign with a love for experimentation is always searching for transformation and surprises as well – so a long mane provides Gemini with exactly the right measure for playful styling.

Hairstyles and styling: Two criteria define the perfect Gemini hairstyle: Non-committal and fun! Exactly right: A clever tuck-in style (with the lengths of hair tucked into the collar). It emphasises the uncomplicated, dynamic and trendy nature.

The versatility of the tuck-in style is illustrated here:

Cancer is surrounded by creative chaos and great friendliness. His world is always a bit more loveable. Fresh and natural, the water sign strolls through life, constantly on the search for absolute bliss. With its emotional strength and sensibility, the Cancer star sign is perceived as very likeable.

Haircut: The emotional Cancer feels most comfortable with long hair. A soft cut with the hair protectively flattering the face lends self-confidence and a feeling of security.

Hairstyles and styling: Less is more! A centre parting with a soft sweep perfectly balances the casual mood of Cancer. The hair should appear natural and fresh. That is how Cancer feels most comfortable.
