Katie Holmes’ sexy waves

Katie Holmes has mastered the sexy just-got-out-of-bed look. To get this look, you can try curling your whole head with large curlers, and then using a smaller curling iron on top, to give you that extra bit of texture. Make sure to add moisturising serum to any dry ends.
Emma Stone’s neat locks
Emma Stone has mastered the art of simplicity. This style is so easy to recreate, with a clean cut (i.e. no layers) in her hair, and side-sweeping bangs, all she really needs are some curlers and hair spray to complete this stylish look.
Karlie Kloss’ textured layers
Loving these textured layers. If you already have this cut it’s going to be easier to recreate. Either way, a good tip for having a textured look is to straighten your hair as normal, and then to straighten the top layers to the opposite side (i.e. left to right).
Mandy Moore’s classic feathered cut
This look is only really achievable by getting your hair cut with a feathered style. -So you know what to ask your hairdresser for the next time you go! This look works especially well with square-shaped faces. Just remember to part it down the middle for a classic look.
Jennifer Lawrence’s platinum locks
Going platinum is a bold look that has always been popular with the stars. If you have dark hair, make sure the dye you buy can make your hair at least eight shades lighter. If it turns orange, it just needs another dying session, so make sure to moisturize, and repeat.
Rose Byrne’s bent waves
Coupled with the ombre hair color, this style looks really good! The bent wave is easy to achieve: simply curl your hair as normal, only while curling each section of hair, move the curlers up and down, making the curl larger than normal.
Nina Dobrev’s sleek lob
Like the classic lob, Nina has a side-parting that gives the lob a different look altogether. This makes the hairstyle work for those with round or oval face shapes and changes it up if you’re bored with your current style.
Queen Letizia of Spain’s polished perfection
If you want a style of royal proportions, try straightening the ends of your hair inwards and asking for a clean cut at the hairdressers. She also has a lot of volume to her sleek hair, so back-combing and using hairspray below the roots is a must.
Salma Hayek’s blunt lob
A straight lob is easy to achieve and is flattering for most face shapes. Ideally dry your hair naturally, as much as you can, to avoid drying out your hair, and then straighten. Make sure to use some anti-heat protection spray and to do plenty of backcombing at your roots.

Aubrey Plaza’s loose waves
The trick for this style is to curl and pull down on the curling-irons once you have finished warming each section of your hair. This gives a loose feel to the curls and the flipped part adds the final touch to this look.
Naomi Campbell’s blunt bangs
This look makes ordinary bangs edgy and modern. Comb your bangs while they are wet, straight over your forehead and prep with some sort of volumizing moose or product. Blow dry in the direction of your bangs and flat iron them to finish.
Pixie Lott’s bright and breezy style
We love this style. Pastels are such a refreshing change and make you stand out from the crowd. This pastel pink or a cute turquoise can make people think again if they ever considered you serious. Just make sure you bleach your hair first before trying out the pastel colour.
Camila Alves’ full curls
Start by dampening your hair, and curl sections around flexi-rods, and curl the rods round into mini doughnut shapes. Curl different ways each time for a varied and natural looking texture. Do this for your whole head and leave to dry (or blow dry if you’re in a hurry!)
Jourdan Dunn’s textured waves
If you want this kind of a curl for a shorter cut, make sure not to hold your hair for too long (ten – fifteen seconds max) in the curling tongs, and remember not to curl the ends for a more lived-in look, and use texturizing spray at the end.
Kate Hudson’s cool girl cut
If you want to feel slick, then this is the look for you! Start with straightened hair and backcombing beneath the part you will be slicking back. Smooth out gently with a brush (without losing too much of the volume) and make sure it is evenly shaped.
Gabrielle Union’s face-framing bangs
Side-sweeping bangs with some lighter highlights are the perfect summer look. And if you have a heart-shaped face, they will be even more flattering. Just blow-dry your bangs up and out to the side for more volume. This look also works really great with your hair up.
Jessica Alba’s faux undercut braid
This hairstyle is a nice twist on the classic curls or straight hair. It looks soft and subtle and is the perfect style to wow the crowds. This and the faux hawk braid look difficult to do, but are actually pretty simple once you’ve got the hang of braiding.
Georgia May Jagger’s rockin’ ‘do
If you want a look that says rock chick, here is your chance! The gentle curls and blonde highlights make Georgia look sun-kissed, and the bangs styled either side of her face are reminiscent of 70’s rock chicks. Right on!
Yara Shahidi’s tight curls
If you have natural curls in your hair, why not flaunt it?! -For this beautiful and natural look, try a curl-stretching product to get a lot of moisture into your hair and to allow it to curl without the curls getting so tight that you can’t see them.
Olivia Palermo’s angle cut

If you want a cut that is original and sleek, try a mid-length cut at an angle, like Olivia Palermo’s style. This works well for those with thin hair and a flat iron. Keep your hair well moisturised with a hair serum and avoid fly always with hair spray.
