What a cute 60s retro look this is with a bob hairstyle and headband accessory in bright pink. She has a matching handbag in the same flashy color with matching lipstick. Her hair is dark brown, short, and straight with a heavy bang that is cut straight across with a little tapering at the sides.

Sometimes a simple sedu hairstyle is in order and this bridesmaid shows that it is possible to look great wearing long hair down. She is wearing a form fitting long red dress that is strapless and the long locks drape down over the shoulders. Her brown hair looks lovely with the bright color.

A lovely bride wearing a dainty tiara looks like a princess on her big day. This young lady is wearing her hair up in an interesting updo that has twists at the top that are comprised of sections that wind around in little rolls. The bangs are side-swept and come down over the forehead. The head piece is placed to come down over the forehead. This is a different look and out of the ordinary and has a vintage flair. This would be beautiful on a tall thin bride as well as a petite small gal.

Sometimes a simple ponytail that is secured low toward the neck can be very elegant as we see Alicia Keys wearing here in this picture taken of her at the "We are Together" Premiere in New York on June 12th 2008. Strands are brushed straight back (bang-less) and have  a wet look that can be accomplished with the right product. Locks that are not freshly washed work the best for this type of style. It is much easier to work with second-day hair on a project like this one (as if hairstyling were a project). This would be a great idea if you had worked all day and had to get ready in a hurry for a special evening event. It is quick and easy and looks beautiful. Alicia's make-up looks young and fresh and love the light pink lipstick on her. Her earrings are very cool: several hoops inside of each other that dangle down past the shoulders. No necklace would be a good idea with this look as the ear jewelry is enough.

This is a beautiful and formal vintage inspired hairstyle worn by Natasha Bedingfield in the picture of her taken at the 50th Annual Grammy Awards in Las Angeles, Ca in Feb. 2008. Her medium length blonde locks are softly curled and styled just like we may have seen on Hollywood stars back in the 1940s. If you are looking for something other than an updo for a special event, then this one is certainly worth considering. Hair is parted on the side with one side being tucked behind the ear while the other has a spiral roll across the forehead. A large barrel curling iron can be used on completely dry strands to get this look. Rather than brushing through them, use fingers to style and gently brush from underneath if necessary.
