Pompadour with a graphic edge is what this is! Like! To make sure that the pouf will retain its height throughout the day, use a day-old hair. A super clean, just-shampooed mane won’t have enough grip to make this style work properly. Spritz a texturizing spray before curling your hair using either hot rollers or a curling iron. Gently tease the roots once the hair has cooled then shape the style. Add some hairspray to set it further.

Pay attention, guys! Meagan Good is showing us that a punk haircut is appropriate for formal occasions too! Add some glamorous waves to a side-shaved cut for an ultra femme style with a whole lot of edge. Use a hot curling iron with a large barrel to create natural looking waves. Curl the ends outwards (away from your face) while keeping the top flat. Finish the look with some hairspray and you’re done!

Kerry Washington is gorgeous! We highly doubt that anybody will contest that statement. Here’s another truth – she’s prettier now that she’s pregnant. We love her bouffant-like updo at the 2014 SAG Awards with a thin black headband. The hairstyle emphasizes her cheekbones and opens up her face.

We always believed that no woman could pull off the 90’s hi-top fade haircut. Clearly, we’re proven wrong by 2014 SAG Awards’ Best Supporting Actress winner Lupita Nyong’o. She’s the epitome of cool in a contrasting length short haircut that’s amazingly fierce! The cut brought strict attention to her lovely face. Plus points for her properly made-up face and impeccable fashion sense!

Sweeping your hair with uniformed waves to one side will give you serious style points! Banish the staleness of this well-copied ‘do by brushing the front up (we’re calling this the ‘gnarly lift’ due to its resemblance to the gigantic water waves) for a good amount of fierce factor!  To make sure that the style will stay, spritz the back with hairspray and add an ornately designed hair clip.

From the office to a holiday party – this coif is a winner! Jooge the ends to pump up some volume and add more texture to the look. You can also wrap a faux braided hair around the base as a flipside to this style.

Noisettes lead vocalist, Shingai Shoniwa, is sporting a humongous milkmaid braid with a whole lot of oomph!

Re-‘do: Evenly part the hair in the center and do a low ponytail on each section. French braid the right side until the end then tie with elastic to secure it. Do the same thing to the left side. Bring the two plaits from the sides all the way to the top, intertwine both before securing them with pins.

It’s the hippie, hippie chic! Melanie Fiona channels a hippie chick in a loose, long layered hairstyle with a narrow elastic band. This is a more refined version of the 70’s hairstyle, actually; sleek, straight and perfectly brushed hair with nary a strand out of place. To make your hair behave and gleam, add a pea-sized amount of smoothening serum before a blowout (for coarse hair) or after (for fine hair). Force a subtle bouffant by forcing your headband upward.

All hail the grandmomma of pompadours, ladies! The right kind of texture and lots of volumizing products will make a pumped up coif achievable. Got naturally curly hair? Apply mousse all over hair, scrunch it then blow dry. Slice your hair in the middle to create an even parting. Brush the right side going up then roll the top towards the center and pin. Do the same on the other side. Mist with hairspray to hold the style.

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.

Side-swept hairstyle is not reserved for women with long hair as proudly shown here by Little Nikki. This type of coif can also be filed under a cool pseudo half-shaved ‘do! Allow ringlets to go wild! Exaggerate the chaos by applying texturizing cream all over then rough dry it using your fingers. Spritz some hairspray on a fine-toothed comb before using it to sleek up one side then use pins to secure the style.

You know, here at CFH, we don’t take the words gorgeous, epic or colossal lightly. One swift glance at Christina Milian’s bun will justify the description we made. It is elegant in all its massiveness, by the way. It’s a great hairstyle for weddings or formal occasions and can double as a place to keep your iPhone, cash and lipstick, yes?

How-To: Do a high ponytail first before slipping a thick donut sponge all the way to the base. Cover the donut sponge evenly with your hair. Wrap the loose ends of your hair around the base and neatly tuck it using bobby pins. Spritz hairspray over a fine-toothed comb and glide it through the front and sides of your head for a sleek finish.

Isis King, the first trans woman to join America’s Next Top Model, showcases a stylish version of a wavy LoB (long bob). Soft layers are added to her coif to lessen the bulk waves bring. Without the layers, the hairstyle will have a ‘triangle effect’ (thin on top, wide at the bottom) due to the waves. Her bangs are also slightly dented to match the rest of her mane.

Nicki Minaj succumbs to the power of the frizz as evidenced by this massive curly hairstyle that will make Diana Ross very proud. To get maximum volume, flip hair when blow drying (back to front) before using hot curlers. Use a good texturizing product to hold the curls and amp up the volume of your mane. If you’re scared of hurting your strands with the heavy teasing that this hairstyle requires, just put on a wig. Simplify your life!

Ain’t this something? Creating a little bundle on top before pulling half of your dreadlocks into a pony is eccentrically chic! The poof will create an instant slimming effect on round faces as well as square-shaped ones. Skip the look if you possess an oblong face. It will make your facial structure look much longer than it actually is.
