If you are a bride with medium length blonde hair (or any color) and are looking for a hairstyle idea to wear your locks down, take a look at this style. This young lady has a touch of Hollywood glamour with the use of jewels as accessories. Her veil is attached to the back of her head. Her bangs are arranged in an up and over swoop and off the forehead in a Marilyn Monroe style. Loose waves start at about eye level and are tucked behind the ears.

Teenage girls of the 70's wore sweaters with printed scenery and feathered hair. One teen girl has a straight version of this hairstyle and one has a curly version. The bangs were even parted and parts varied from in the middle to off center. Parts were very deliberate and even. That was the first thing one did before styling began. This is a fun photograph to see the retro fashions and decor.

The shag hairstyle began in the late 60's and was strong into the early 70's. This photograph was taken around 1970 and shows the hair and fashion that was hot during this time with men and women. This young woman's hairstyle has the typical hourglass shape that came from the transformation of the bouffant which was full and round on top. Then, the fringes of longer pieces that came down the neck and flipped up, just like the Florence Henderson hairdo from the Brady Bunch, made the shag just that.

You have got to love the long side burns and long locks on this blast from the past man. His mushtache is long and hooked as well. The white shoes top it all off, but how about those red pants and black socks.

For more information on the bouffant and how to get it take a look at that page.

Retro hairstyles are very in right now and many of the celebrities are using styles from the past to influence their current "dos" just like we see with Lisa Rinna and her version of the shag, Hilary Duff and her interpretation of hip from the past, and Jessica Simpson with a bouffant ponytail.

 What a sleek and sexy bob hairstyle we see here on Jenny McCarthy. This picture of her was taken at the 5th Anniversary of the Gentlemen's Club on 12/13/2007. This style is sure to be hot for 2008 and is easy care and fun. This haircut is cut shorter in the back (inverted) which helps to give fullness around the crown. Her bangs are brushed to the side here to give the appearance of a bang-less style, but one could also style it with the bangs for a variation. There are some graduated layers around the bottom to also add some bounce. This is a very straight hairstyle with the sides at the front just brushing past the jawline. A very light shade of blonde looks great on her and with her black dress. For another great bob you may also want to check out Ellen Barkin.

Jenny is 35 years old and is known for her modeling, acting, writing, and comedy. In the 90's she was the host of the dating show "Singled Out" on MTV.

Super short cropped hairstyles can be sexy and are easy to care for. This style is straight and sleek looking with a little bit of layering to help the hair lay down properly. With a good cut, this hairdo should just fall into place when styled. A little texturing product on the hands and run through the strands after drying is complete, will give some definition and help to keep things in place. Her bangs are brushed to the side here but could be left down and so on for other variations. This is a very cute look.
