If you are looking for a great teen updo for a special event or anytime, check this one out by Shailene. It's pretty fab!
Hair is split into sections and twisted and brought around to the back where they are secured. The bangs are left down and side swept with a long fringe left out. They brush across the eyes for a touch of mystery. Pale natural lips are youthful. The color is a soft and warm brown.
This hairstyle reminded us of something that Marilyn Monroe may have worn and the curls shout retro 1950s glamor.
So the back is pulled up and secured at the top with bobby pins while the emphasis of this updo is concentrated at the top front. The curls are stacked slightly off center for a hint of asymmetry and height. The above shot shows off the side while the one below is a straight on view of the front. These pics are from National Reality TV Awards 2011.
