If you are looking for an up to date trendy 60-ish bouffant hairstyle, then you need to check out Jessica Simpson's cool updo with ponytail. The top and back portion is back-combed (otherwise known as ratted) to give the height that is necessary when trying to accomplish a 1960s look. This trend is so hot right now and Jessica wears it well as she is seen here in this photograph of her taken at the Operation Smile 25th Anniversary event on October 10th 2007.

If you are looking for a cute way to wear your hair with a trendy headband, then check out this cute style. This young woman has curly hair but has styled it into a straightened 60s hairdo with the use of hair products and a flat iron. First she uses a straightening balm and then uses a large round brush when blow-drying. She runs over the strands with a flat iron one small section at at time. The top crown of her head is back combed to add some height and then the outer layer is smoothed over for a clean look. Some hair spray is added at the end. A wide polka-doted headband is placed for a fabulous retro statement. This hair accessory has an elasticized bottom to allow it to stay in place better.

That 60s bouffant seems to be the popular thing these days as Hilary Duff shows us during her live performance on NBC's The Today Show Concert Series. A little back combing on top or a great hair product by Aveda called "hair potion" can transform flat hair into big hair. For today's take on the traditional beehive, long hair in back will get you there with bangs brushed to the side and the front section pulled up and back. This style shows off the length along with the height at the crown.

This hairstyle worn by Bree Williamson is reminiscent of the 60's bouffant. This modern version starts with a ponytail that sits high on the crown with hair fanned out too look like this past decades poofy updo. Back-combing under the pony will help create the height that is needed for this retro look. The strands in the front are pulled back in smooth bands that start from a center part and streaks of pink hair color are added to match her pink headband and dress. This hairdo would be a smash hit for a retro party or fun event.
