If Georgia May Jagger was going for a very modish disheveled hairstyle, we say she nailed it! She’s got a little bit of the Bardot vibe going on but with an identifiable modernity to the style. Feel like re-doing this?

  1. Dirty hair (day-old) is easier to work with when doing updos. It will give the style the ‘grip’ needed to make it last.
  2. Mist hair with a volumizing spray then rough-dry using your fingers.
  3. Curl 2” sections using a clampless iron wand for 5 seconds then release.
  4. Once hair is cool to the touch, pick out thin sections of hair in front and at the sides before gathering the rest into a high ponytail.
  5. Jooge the ends of the ‘tail before coiling it loosely around the base (where the elastic is) of the ponytail, and pin.
  6. Twirl the tendrils a bit around your fingers and you’re done!

Nicole Scherzinger’s long, silky, black hair is styled in an elegant top knot hairdo. A section of her hair was left out to create a braid that wraps around the bun. This is a modern twist for a classic hairdo. Girls going to prom might want to try out this look. It reminds me of Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s.

Her blond hair is pulled back neatly, keeping the top slightly lifted. Notice the small patch of greys on one side? It’s saying: “Look, I’m aging but I’m fab so deal with it.”

The Pretty Woman kept her coif relaxed and loose at the 2014 Oscars. Her ombre hair is styled in a soft, low chignon. The bangs are swooped to one side and ever so lightly given texture. To give your hairstyle the I-didn’t-even-try-to-look-this-beautiful effect, scrunch your mane a little before you create a chignon.

This heart-shaped bun hairdo is so sweet and pretty and would look great for a special prom hairdo. Just follow these simple steps: Many stores sell bun-shaping accessories. Purchase one and use hair elastics to shape it into a heart. (Just pinch the bottom of it together to form a point. Do the same on the top half to make a “m” shape.) Style your hair into a ponytail at the back of your head and secure with an elastic band. (You can use all of your hair or just the top half like in this photo.) Slide your ponytail inside the heart-shaped bun-shaping accessory and wrap hair around it. Twist hair around it and tuck ends inside. Secure with pins.

This model’s long, blonde hair is styled in a high ballerina bun. A sock or foam doughnut was added to make the bun more voluminous.

This hairdo is perfect for teens who want to get noticed at prom.

A messy bouffant updo works great on round-shaped faces such as Sarah Hyland’s. Rough dry hair or use a diffuser – focusing on the roots – for good volume. Slightly tease the front and crown before doing a tight chignon. The lifted top and flat sides will make your face look longer and more angular. Pull out a few strands using the end of a rat tail comb. Spritz a hairspray with strong hold as a final touch.
