If you’re so sick of your hair you can barely stand it, get inspired with these gorgeous star styles...
1.Pair Wavy Strands With Straight Bangs:
Soft, loose curls are still really hot, but if you're looking to switch up this look just a bit, keep your bangs or shorter face-framing pieces sleek like Reese Witherspoon does here. The effect works best if your fringe is long and wispy.
2.Fire Up Your Flatiron:
Super-sleek strands like Ciara's are back. To prevent your hair from sizzling in your flatiron, use a protective styling spray before you clamp down.
3.Keep It Loose:
Jessica Biel's half-up style looks so sexy because it's tousled and not too perfect. Rub body-building mousse through damp strands, blow-dry, then pull them back at ear level and secure with bobby pins.
4.Try A Simple Bun:
Jessica Stroup's chic updo is simple to pull off. Blow-dry hair straight, part it to one side, then make a low ponytail. Coil the length of the pony around the base and secure the knot with pins.
5.Enhance Your Natural Texture:
Blake Lively has some seriously sexy waves. Dampen hair from roots to ends with a texturizing spray before blow-drying, then wrap random sections around a 1-inch curling iron.
6.Sling Your Bun To One Side:
For Becki Newton's playful chignon, part your hair to one side and twist it into a big, loose bun about an inch above the nape of your neck. If you have really fine or naturally straight hair, add texture before you put it up with a mousse like Garnier Fructis Body Boost Volumizing Mousse, then blow-dry with a diffuser.
7.Break Up Your Curls With Color:
Beyoncé's curls look extra-gorgeous thanks to some randomly placed caramel-hued highlights. Ask your colorist to brighten a few pieces around your face as well as some chunks at your ends.
8.Do A Flirty Ponytail:
Eva Mendes's pony is easy and super-cute. The trick: Tease your roots around the crown of your head to get some lift before you pull your hair back. For extra oomph, fluff up the length of the pony with a flexible-hold spray .
9.Flirt With A Shoulder-Length Style:
Want to fake shorter strands? Set long hair in big, hot rollers for super-bouncy curls that temporarily shorten your locks by a couple of inches like Amy Adams did here.
10.Go For An Easy Updo:
Updos look sexiest when they're not too "done." Case in point: Hilary Duff's falling-down style. To get it, leave your face-framing pieces down, then gather the rest of your hair into a low, super-loose chignon.
11.Cut Blunt Bangs:
Give extra-long locks an instant update with freshly cropped fringe like Kate Beckinsale's. Tell your stylist to snip the center pieces so they fall right below your eyebrows, while the outer ones should be slightly longer.
12.Pull It All Back:
A little bit of height in the front and some pieces sticking out in the back prevent Kristen Stewart's bun from looking too severe. Tease the roots by your forehead before sweeping all of your hair back into a mid-level pony. Wrap the tail into a bun, leaving out the ends.
13.Choose Bold Accessories:
Decorate long locks with an eye-catching headband. The multiband gold version Nicole Richie is wearing here is from her new collection, House of Harlow 1960.
14.Make Curls Look Touchable:
Last season's stiff ribbon curls are out. What's hot right now are the big, silky spirals you see here on Eva Longoria. Start with a shine-enhancing cream.Wrap sections of hair from the ears down around a large curling iron. Once your hair cools down, gently run a brush through the curls.
15.Keep It Down With A Twist:
Want Lauren Conrad's boho look? Grab two thin sections a few inches back from your hairline, twist, and secure with pins at the back of your head. For her glossy waves, use a jumbo curling iron.
16.Trick Camera Lenses:
For hair that gleams like Emily Blunt's, apply a light shine serum before and after blow-drying. Use a spray version if you have fine hair and be sure to keep the stuff away from your roots.
17.Bump Up The Back:
Always a trendsetter, Sienna Miller works a creative half-updo. Part your hair down the middle and leave the front section loose and wavy. Tease the hair at your crown, then make a ponytail at the nape of your neck.
18.Get Surfer-Girl Waves:
Mary-Kate Olsen's beachy look can be easily re-created on dry land. Just mist hair from with a wave-making salt-infused styler, then twist small pieces around your fingers to shape.
19.Go Glam With Your Curls:
To get Alicia Keys's beautiful spirals, make a deep side part, then wrap sections of hair around a 1-inch curling iron. Smooth a few drops of shine serum over the curls.
20.Sex Up Your Layers:
Draw attention to a layered haircut like Gabrielle Union's by using a medium-sized round brush to flick your ends in and out while you blow-dry.
