Heidi Klum at the 81st Annual Academy Awards.
The perfect accent to this sleek style would be these earrings that make for an extravagant look against the simple sedu look. Razoring finishes off the ends of this angled blunt cut that is totally fabulous.

Looking amazingly lifelike, you may be fooled by this wax replica of Britney Spears, and in bringing her likeness to life, they have truly made her hairstyle here a perfect copy. As the lovely songstress would don, this latticework of blonde waves beautifullly and gracefully represents this current era of hair designs.

Charlize Theron at the Paris Premiere of "The Burning Plan".
Medium long hair may think that it is too short to be done in a formal updo, however, consider the alternative of a low-riding gathering like this one on Charlize Theron. You can curl the front section or sections into ringlets or opt to leave them straight as is demonstrated here.

These golden tresses on Melinda Messenger makes us realize that curl has been revolutionized finally into the locks women have longed for all through the ages. Though many primitive methods have been used, and some have been somewhat successful with the use of electric appliances; yet not until recently has hair experienced more healthy, crisp and perfect coils like these that Melinda Messenger so aptly models.

Elle Macpherson at the 4th Women's World Awards.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words and this hairstyle on Elle Macpherson leaves one speechless. In a magnificent display of voluminous body, her long, layered style is definitely exquisite.

When you have long, thick hair, it is amazing how elegant an updo will look when smoothed and pinned properly into place. Angie Harmon either has a massive bun on the back of her head or a sleek, turned under ponytail.

Jemma McKenzie-Brown at the "Marley and Me" U.K. Premiere.
The wind is blowing this style a little, yet your can still see how it is classy, yet simple. Jemma McKenzie-Brown either has a formal updo in the back or a ponytail, while the front has free side sections and is banded with a natural hair plait, which is going to be seen more and more here for Spring.

Vanessa Hudgens at the L.A. Premiere of "Watchmen".
Vanessa Hudgens makes the most of her choppy layers in this look full of waves. Her top shorter layers are designed in ringlets left undisturbed, while the length falls in the classic S-waves.
