Lisa Rinna is well known for her shag hairstyles and they may vary from big and poofy to a more understated and updated version like this one.

It's short and choppy with tons of layers to give the lift necessary for the shag. The bangs are textured and piecey for an imperfect look. The sides hit just below the ears while the back is longer down to the collar. She has a medium brunette shade with warmer tones mixed in. Her skin is olive and tan and her eyes are dark brown.

Helen Mirren is sporting a bob that is shorter on one side to create an asymmetrical appearance here at the 66th Annual Directors Guild Of America Awards.

Helen Mirren

This attractive 68 year old actress shows us that we can still look fabulous with a perfect haircut for a woman in her 60's and also have something edgy. Her blonde color works well with mature grey in a way that works well together. The grey shade is more of a white so some softer tones are placed near her face in her bangs. One side can either be tucked behind the ear or actually cut just above the ear for the effect. The other side comes down to chin level. There is no specific part but rather there is one point where all strands are styled from. There is a touch of lift at the top for this straight style. The ends taper with some layers to prevent bushiness.

Back combing at the crown helps with the lift and then smoothing over the top layer completes it. Some fringe is left out on each side for softness. She has rich dark brown locks that are almost black. It looks lovely with her olive skin and dark eyes.
