Wanna ‘electrafy’ a side-swept hairstyle? Do triple braids on one side! Do an extreme side parting, clip the other side to get it out of the way then create three sections on the opposite side and start weaving. Intertwine a thin black string to the plaits to get a rockin’ look just like Carmen Electra’s.

This is such a sweet-sixteen-cuter-than-thou look! Hannah Simone’s French twist coif will work better on shoulder length hair. We’ll give you the rationale in a minute after a quick tutorial. Curl the ends of your hair before twisting it into a loose updo. Allow the loose ends to go wild on top. Now, secure the style with pins then blow dry the bangs inwards to smoothen it out and give it sheen. As promised: Longer strands will make the ends flow down in all directions. You have to tuck some in to make it look like this.

Janelle Monáe’s attention-grabbing trademark coif is not something you can use every day, but you can’t deny the fact that this hairstyle commands respect! First of all, it’s uber cool and it takes gut (and the right kind of facial structure – she’s gorgeous!) to pull this off.
Planning to? Apply a liberal amount of hair mousse before creating a high French twist. Make sure that the sides are slicked out really well. Tease the front for maximum volume and mold it into a sleek pompadour. Be generous with your pins to make the style last. Finish off with a hairspray.

Boyish, cute and even sexy – that’s pixie for ‘ya! The traditional pixie cut – as seen here on Victoria Summer – hugs the scalp flat and sheared with feathery light layers all around. The fringe is cut mid-forehead and swept to the side. The best texture for a close-cropped hairstyle is fine with subtle natural waves; this will make the cut fall perfectly without much effort from the wearer. Don’t fret if you don’t belong to that category because there are hair products that can make you achieve a killer styled pixie every single day!

Can we get a ‘hell yeah!’ for Kate Bosworth’s ultra cool faux mohawk braided updo? Whoever said ‘hawks can’t be used for formal occasions is wrong. This is so much easier than it looks! Seriously.
How-to: Create three sections – middle (thickest), left, and right. French braid the middle from the top until the nape. Once you reach the nape, gather the left and right sections along with the middle part into a ponytail. Slice the ends of the ponytail in half and braid each until the ends then tie with elastic. Flip the braided left section on top, bend the end to hide the elastic then secure with pins. Do the same to the right braided section. Secure the middle portion with clips if needed to keep them still.

No matter how sultry long wavy tresses may appear, adding brow-length blunt bangs can make the overall look just a tad bit cute! Women who are born with super straight strands are the best candidates for this dynamic fringe. Those with coarse, naturally wavy or curly hair can still go for a straight across cut but a little effort is needed in order to make them behave. You can go for blunt if you have these three fundamental things: blow dryer, a large boar brush and a serum.

Alice Eve looks like a real live doll with her super shiny blonde locks styled in a retro bob. To add a modern touch to the look, make it less structured. Curl the ends only instead of doing heavy pin curls all over. This style looks more ‘alive’ as opposed to the rigid effect of back-in-the-day coif. It’s glossy and definitely touchable.

Domestic goddess Nigella Lawson sporting a medium hairstyle with large curls that’s very much appropriate for women her age. To lessen the bulk and avoid the triangle effect that curls will give to a one-length cut, layers should be added all around. Nigella’s curls have remained bouncy and silky. To imitate the look, apply a shine serum while your hair is still damp to lock in the moisture on each strand.

Dakota Johnson has been getting a lot of buzz as of late for being crowned ‘Anastasia Steele’. But here at CFH it’s this intricate bun that she sported at the 2013 LACMA Art + Film Gala that’s getting swooned at.

Gather the rest of your hair into a tight low bun and secure with pins. Get the ends of the half up then swirl it around the bun and put pins all around.

We love this ‘do! It’s very sophisticated and truly exhibits high glam except for the bobby pins. Ditch the bobby pins when you recreate this hairstyle. The pins are there to set the style after you’ve spritzed some hairspray. Do a swift blow dry over your mane to set the style further then gently remove the pins. Applying gel before working on your hair will make everything way easier. Try it!
