How to make an infantile hairstyle a sultry one? Mădălina Diana Ghenea did a perfect example for us all! Chunks of hair hang loosely at the sides framing her beautiful face, while the braided ponytail is forced sideways; extra point for flipping up the end and trucking it inside the braid.

We admit, Fan Bing Bing’s “Jeune and Jolie” Cannes premiere ‘do is quite intimidating at first glance, but it’s actually quite easy to do! Do a side part first before creating multiple sections (about 6-8 will do), then French braid each. Gather your braided sections into a low ponytail and twist the tail into a bun. Secure the hairstyle with pins and hairspray.

Janet Jackson sporting a hairstyle that she made über cool in Poetic Justice! We love that she did a high ponytail and rolled her braids inwards instead of letting them fall loose down. It’s a gorgeously eccentric style that can only be pulled off by women who possess a whole lot of dash….okay, and an amazing face.

Awww…perfectly dainty! Tip: If you want to exude a bohemian vibe without forking a dime, skip the embellished (and expensive) headbands and go straight to creating a natural braided crown. After parting hair in the middle, create two thin sections on each side and start French braiding. Connect the two together at the back and fasten with elastic.

Stylish and ultra femme! We’re going crazy over Lucy Liu’s deconstructed fishtail braided hairstyle she sported at the 2013 Golden Globes! Wella Professionals stylist, Andy LeCompte was the genius behind this gorgeous ‘do. Steal the look: Spritz a texturizing hairspray all over your mane for that much needed coarseness. Next, part your hair to your preferred side and start doing a French braid from the top until just above the nape. Do the same on the other side then merge the two together and do a fishtail braid until the end. Once braid is secured with elastic, loosen it using your fingers or the end of a rat tail comb.
