Women have 150 different hairstyles in their lifetime: Typical female will hit the salon to get over a break-up or copy their favourite celebrity Between the ages of 15-65, women will visit the hairdressers 250 times They'll experiment with 100 different styles and 50 shades Desire for new do stems from boredom, celebrity inspiration or life change The average woman will work her way through 150 different hairstyles in a lifetime, according to a recent study. Researchers found the typical female will have her hair cut into a different style twice, and try at least one different colour, each year between the ages of 15 and 65. The main reasons for changing styles include getting bored with their current look or seeing a celebrity - such as Victoria Beckham who has modelled a number of different styles over the last decade - with a cut or colour they like. Ringing in the changes: Fashion designer Victoria Beckham has experimented with numerous styles over the years from a long wavy look to a messy bob Going through a big life change such as a divorce or having a baby was another reason women hit the salon. As well as different cuts, it emerged women will experiment with around 100 different shades of colour over the years. The study of 2,000 women revealed that in an average year there will be five visits to the hairdressers - a total of 250 between the ages of 15 and 65. During those trips, women will go for a completely different colour once every year or fifty times in total.

Researchers also found that almost half of women are easily bored when it comes to their hair, and another 47 per cent like to be experimental when it comes to their locks.

He said: 'A new hairstyle or colour can be a great way to brighten up your appearance or even celebrate a big life change or milestone event. If you like being the centre of attention and keeping up with the latest trends, nothing does this more than a radical cut or colour. 'And if you aren't brave enough to go for a completely different look, just going for a slightly lighter or darker shade than usual, or chopping more off the ends, can still have the same effect.'
