Cheryl Cole opted for 70’s retro glamour with her hairdo at Cannes Film Festival 2014. Despite heavy teasing on the crown required for bouffant, Cheryl’s lovely sunkissed hair is all but stiff in appearance, which is the legacy of 70’s paradigm on this hairstyle. Prior to teasing horizontal sections on the crown and back of the head, her hair was well prepared with blow drying and round brush, paying special attention to the sections around her face.  Then it was collected and tied in a low pony tail, leaving middle parted bangs loose. Pony tail was then sectioned, teased, smoothened, rolled into bun and secured with bobby pins at the nape. Hairspray is of utter importance for holding this hairdo in place.

Pop star rising Rita Oro is wearing her long ashy blond hair side parted in this hairstyle, which is latest favorite parting of many top showbiz ladies. Her very smooth and silky perfect loose  curls are simply screaming with glamor. So what’s the catch? Well, besides your usual weapons of choice like heat treatment protection spray, antifrizz serum, mousse, cream and the likes, blow dry your hair section by section directing the air flow down the shaft. Last, but most important, hold your curling iron up straight instead of horizontally while curling large sections of your hair.

Let’s go back for a moment to 20’s when this hairstyle was the expression of rebellion (against traditional long hair and complicated updos), pushing the limits and being forward in such a sophisticated way. Seems like it will never lose its elegance and glam, as even now, almost hundred years later, you can not look anything else but breathtaking and perfectly styled when wearing it. We would also add that smokey eyes makeup and red lipstick are not really optional… it is rather a must for completing the style! You do know that making fingerwaves does not include heat treatment for your hair? You did not? Ah, you are most welcome!

Summing up the total of impression and elegance, deep side parting of your long, blond mane and deep side parting with victory roll are not comparable by any chance. Extra effort applied for the latter is negligible. Credits for coolness of this hairstyle go to the contrast of single one victory roll sassiness and looseness of remaining hair. We love the idea of avoiding additional curls and waves, which is bringing a bit of edge to this look. Try it yourself: depending on your hair texture, a day old hair could be a good idea for starting point, at least when it comes to fine, thin hair. Otherwise add some hair cream. Take the whole right side section, take your bangs, take crown section all the way to the parting line, join them all together, brush them until smooth and start rolling from the ends. Direction of rolling should be from the right side towards the crown. When you reach the roots, secure the roll with bobby pins. Tuck the opposite side hair behind your ear. Fix with hairspray.

With chic accessorizing, even a very easy to repeat hairdo can look absolutely amazing! Beyonce’s hair here is middle parted and wrapped in simple chignon at her nape. That which made her style redcarpetly appealing is this beaded birdcage veil. The only catch with this vintage little thing is to match it properly with what you are wearing (this Givenchy Haute Couture  is example of excellent match), so it is for very special occasions only.

Seems like complicated texture? Not at all. Easy tutorial to begin with beach waves is right here on this video. Kate Winslet’s sunkissed blond hair is the major emphasizing element of texture for this hairstyle. If you are into repeating this color on your hair, just navigate your hairdresser to pay special attention to the highlights around your face for perfect sunkissed effect.

Adding barrette decorated with crystals is optional.

Short shag hairstyles tend to look a bit sharp, but with the right touch of waves the whole look modifies. Rihanna’s hair is cut asymmetrically into a short shag, giving this look a bit of an edge. What most certainly effeminates her look is the middle parting, side-swept long bangs and the firm, well defined curls.

Had she been born in different generation, she would probably be on the list of Alfred Hitchcock’s fatal, classy blondes. Kate Winslet definitely has that Hollywood golden era vibe, grace and elegance, so this vintage look is pulling the best out of her appearance, which is very important when wearing black as this is directing the whole attention to the face. Her medium length blond hair is deep side parted and her bangs are slightly curled at the ends so they could blend naturally into queue curl at the nape. A hairstyle worth considering when walking down the altar because it perfectly fits with a classic wedding dress.

Seems like braids are not giving up their throne on the red carpet, even in 2014. Blake Lively arrived at 2014 Cannes Film Festival wearing this elegant, high ponytail braid.The charming thing about this hairstyle is the contrast between the sleek sections on the head, and the coarse, disheveled braid. To get this hairstyle, apply hair cream and comb your hair to make the roots smooth before collecting it into a high ponytail. Take a small section of your hair and wrap it around an elastic band to conceal it. Tease your ponytail slightly and make a simple loose braid. Keyword: disheveled! So not too messy.

Cute? You betcha! Always expect unexpected from Gwen Stefani’s style, like matching classic chignon and double arching dutch braids weaved from the hairline all the way to the nape. Well lets be realistic, whenever she decides not to let her hair touch that lovely face, she is only doing her appearance a big favor. For DIY we warmly recommend at least a day old hair to avoid disobedient strands in braids. If this is not helping, take very small amount of hair conditioner, rub it between your palms and stroke the surface of your hair.

Radical dip-dyed hairstyle is dead but its milder version (ombre) is still very much alive! Kylie Jenner’s all-too-familiar long, layered haircut with beach waves is made extraordinary through the power of proper ‘ombrefication’. Three shades lighter than the base color is best. The outcome should mimic a surfer’s hair that’s been naturally kissed by the sun and the sea and not someone who accidentally dipped the ends of her hair in acid.

This will ensure distinct curls that have bouncy and touchable qualities.

The casualness of her updo paired with an amazing maquillage makes the look work perfectly.  Simply gather your hair up into a high ponytail then secure with elastic.
