Hair light-An Accent Light presumably limited to the top of the head. Sometimes only a Back Light with delusions of grandeur and fancy-colored gels.
Background light-Back Light separates subject from background, saints from sinners, and one pro from another. Angl
Shadowless-
Hard light-A relatively small, direct, usually focusable source, with or without lens, that produces strong High-lights and dark shadows. The quality is more dramatic and controllable, but generally less flattering, than Soft Light. 
Soft light-
Grey card-A Matte 18% reflectance card used instead of a subject for a Reflected Light Meter reading.
Reflector-Flat devices, mostly white, silver, or gold, that redirect the sun's and other source's rays. Lighting with reflectors is like lighting with lights - except no cables. Just cloud and wind worries.
Diffuser-

Direction: Where is the light coming from—the front, the side, or behind?
Intensity: How bright is each light source?
