10 Signs You Need a Hair Update

Are you stuck in a hair rut? Here's how to tell if you are - and turn things around.

one You know those "Hot" and "Not" lists glossies are fond of? Well, you start seeing your style being pronounced the latest new comeback rage - you never realised it had gone out to begin with.

two All you need to do is style your hair a wee bit different - say, change your parting - and your pals won't stop raving.

three You're zipping around town in a convertible with the top down, and your hair barely moves. It's time to lose that strong-fix hair spray - hair today is about bounce and texture.

four Making your hair look decent involves torture - be it abusing the flat iron or wielding the crimping iron. Today, hair is about going with your natural texture, be it super straight or ultra curly.

five Your idea of upping the ante is to scrape hair back into a ponytail - if you feel the best way to tame hair is to slick it all back, it's probably out-of-shape. Some layers may change your entire look.

six You've been grappling with the same hair issues all your life, be it frizz, flyaways or flatness. From products to treatments to tools, you think you've tried it all. Well, the one thing you haven't is a new style.

seven Your threads may be S/S or 05 Balenciaga, but your hair is pure Jennifer Aniston circa 1994. As trendy as your cut may have been a decade ago, it's time to move on. Your hair should be in sync with the rest of your style.

eight Looking at your old photos, while you may have lost the shoulder pads and gained a few lines, your hair has remained a constant. Many of us cling to a style we think suits us - truth is, your hair needs to evolve as your lifestyle does.

nine You've been carrying the same tattered magazine tear of a fab new hairdo you'd like to try in your wallet for yonks.

ten Whether it's Farah Fawcett waves or a Meg Ryan shag, your do is more costume than coif.
