Lauren Conrad

Strands are slicked back from the forehead for a bang-less look. She has medium brown tresses with some highlights that show up on the bun. If one did not have long hair yet they wanted an updo like this one, there are hair pieces that could be purchased and pinned into place with bobby pins. This is a very simple and conservative look. The event here is Us Weekly Hot Hollywood Style 2011 Issue Event.
