Want to have a stylish hairstyle like your fave celebrity? Here are some chic celeb hairstyles and styling tips for all out there. So go through these fresh ideas and make yourself up like these glamour queens!
Taylor Swift
* When styling naturally curly hair, apply product to straight-from-the-shower wet hair to eliminate the risk of frizz forming as it dries. Use a wide-toothed comb to work through from root to tip, then allow to air dry or use a diffuser attachment for speedy results.
* Curling tongs are ideal for producing uniform, spiraling waves such as these but you'll need to be patient. Use on dry hair only and mist hair with a protective heat spray before starting. Divide hair into manageable sections - the smaller the section, the tighter the curl.
* Try 'cocktailing' your products to suit your styling needs. Add a few drops of serum to a ball of mousse to produce volume without frizz, or mix gel with smoothing cream for a controlled and defined curl.
Drew Barrymore
*There's ponytails - and then there's ponytails that pack a punch! This look works so well because of the sheer effort that's gone into achieving a smooth, shiny finish from the outset. Blow-dry straight, then add in a light curl with tongs before you get to work on the updo.
* Sometimes the most simple updos look the most effective. Accessories can overpower so keep things understated by wrapping a loose section of hair around the base of a ponytail and pinning underneath to hold in place.
* Most hair is more manageable the day after washing and will have more 'grip' so bear this in mind if you're planning on wearing an updo. Alternatively, a touch of dry shampoo will add guts to freshly-washed tresses.
Claudia Schiffer
* Long hair is typically a few years old, so is likely to be in need of some extra care. A good trim will sort out any dry, frazzled ends and regular intensive treatments are essential for adding moisture and smoothing the hair's cuticle for a more glossy finish.
* If growing pains are getting to you, fake it instead with extensions. Go for real hair if you want to be able to style with heated appliances or choose monofibre if cost is an issue.
* Don't get stuck in a long hair rut - it's the most versatile length there is, so make the most of it. Vary the texture from curly to straight, experiment with accessories or try updos (other than a ponytail) to keep your look fresh.
Lauren Conrad
* Cool celebs like Lauren, Mischa Barton and Peaches Geldof have made the hippy band huge fashion news and it's a great way of adding interest to your style with minimum effort.
* Headbands work well on all hair lengths and textures. Try a pearl or crystal-effect band with a short crop for a hint at flapper girl chic, wrap a bandana around long layers for a boho vibe or sweep curls off the face with a wide elasticated band.
* Don't restrict yourself to what's available on the high street. Get creative and visit haberdashery stores to stock up on ribbons in lace, gingham, satin or florals and make bands to coordinate with your favourite outfits.
Ashley Olsen
* Layers give your style movement and they work with most hair types. When styled properly, fine hair will look thicker with layers, while having them cut into thick hair removes some of the weight to give it versatility. Curly hair can achieve more volume with layers.
* For Ashley's look, use a large round-barreled brush to dry the hair, curling the ends under for a rounded effect. Use a powder wax on fingertips and pull through random strands to create a textured, bed head finish.
* Look out for texturising products to really define layers; light, powder formulas will allow the hair to move more, while strong hold pastes or waxes can give greater definition on shorter styles.
Blake Lively
* For an easy way to create waves, mist styling spray through almost-dry hair, then divide into three or four sections, twist tightly and pin up. Once hair is dry, simply shake loose and use your fingers to break up the texture.
* If you can't come to grips with traditional tongs, look out for a 'curl stick', a heated ceramic rod around which you simply wrap sections of hair before unravelling. It produces less-uniform waves than other methods so is ideal for modern-looking results.
* It's an old trick but a good one; secure hair in plaits before bed (the more plaits, the tighter the wave) then release the following morning for instant Blake Lively-esque texture.
