Wash your hair and apply a setting lotion as
it will help your hair hold the curls
When you're ready to style, create a side
parting and begin to blow dry your hair brush to end height and shape
Don't completely dry your hair, leaving it
5-10% damp and use large hot rollers, rolling your hair up and under to get
Dita's glossy curls rather than a flicked out 'do.
When the rollers cool, remove them carefully
and apply a lot of hairspray, such as the classic L'Oreal Elnett to finish.

Dita likes to use hot barrel tongs to create her curly
look, she says they create just the right amount of volume for creating the 40s
look, she loves so much.
For this look you should apply some styling mousse to your
hair after washing it.
When the hair is completely dry tong all your hair but
only go up to just above the ear, leaving the top of the hair straight.
Back comb a little at the roots and crown for an extra
little bit of volume and finish with a liberal spray of the classic
L'Oreal Elnett .

Suits - High foreheads. Best on oval or long
shaped faces.
Begin by applying some frizz-ease serum to hair while it's
damp to help add shine and reduce frizz, of course.
Blow-dry the hair straight using a large round brush to
add some volume at the roots, slightly turn out the ends, and cup the fringe
under.
Running a ceramic straightening iron over the lengths will
also help add shine and create Emmanuelle's super sleek look but if you feel
your result from blow-drying is already straight enough, it's not essential.
Applying a little smoothing serum is another great
finishing touch which will help add shine and will take away any frizzes.

Cameron's latest look is very dramatic
because it's so different from her usual styles. The rule is usually don't go
more than 3 shades away from your natural colour but there are always
exceptions. This look really brings out Cameron's eyes beautifully.
For the cut ask your hairdresser to give
you long layers that graduate around the face.
To style blow dry straight and finish with
a shining spray. This look is all about the gloss.

Suits - High foreheads. Best on oval or
square shaped faces.
 Sandra's
stylist David Babaii began by applying a small amount of
Couture Colour Pequi Oil Treatment to Sandra's hair while it was damp hair.
He blow-dried her hair straight with a paddle brush, then
sectioned the hair, separating the bang area, then sides, and the back.
Starting at the nape he applied a little more Couture
Colour Pequi Oil Treatment to each section then used a flat iron to make the
hair completely straight (David used IT&LY HAIRFASHION’S Digital Flat Iron).
When it came to the bangs, he bang area, he turned the
iron slightly under to create a soft cupped affect.
Finish the ultra-shiny look off, he applied some more of
the oil to his hands, warming it slightly and running it over the top of the
style to smooth away any fly-a-ways and define the piecey texture at the ends.

The Look - '40s Femme Fatale
Seen At - The 2011 BAFTA Awards
For Eva's glam awards look, first apply
some gloss-enhancing spray, such as
L'Oreal Paris Vive Pro Glossy Style Smooth Gloss Serum, through
damp hair.
Create a side-parting and place clips where you
waves - on the larger side of the parting one should go above the
end of the eyebrow, and one at about cheek length for Eva's look.
Tuck the other side behind the ear.
To create the curls use a large-barrelled curling
iron, taking quite thick sections of hair for a non-ringlety look.
If you have the time and patience, pin the curls
up to let them cool and set for about 10-15 minutes, which should
ensure longer lasting style.
Finish with a mist of hairspray.

Blow-drying or straightening your hair isn't essential if
it's naturally straight but it is necessary for curly or wavy hair to receive
this look.
For the awards show, Salma was styled by hairdresser
Robert Vetica who began by working some
MoroccanOil Treatment through her wet hair to detangle and smooth out
split ends.
He then dried the hair straight using
MoroccanOil Hydrating Styling Cream to give added shine and
smoothness.*
Robert then pulled Salma’s hair back into two ponytails;
the first one from ear to crown to opposite ear and pulled it back low at the
nape of the neck.
He pulled the remaining hair into a second ponytail,
directly on top of the first, back-combing for extra fullness and a little
texture.
Each section was braided then turned under and attached at
the nape of the neck. The double braid gave the effect of textured
thickness and something unique.
Salma Hayek had specially-made diamond hair wrap from
Boucheron worth $250,000 which Robert wrapped around the double braid for a
simple but chic look.
*These first steps aren't essential if it's naturally
straight but it is necessary for curly or wavy hair to receive this look.

Lea's hair is naturally curl but she went sleek and straight
for her appearance at the Grammy Awards in 2010.
Needs - Long bangs, or short layers around the face.
The style calls for high shine and no frizz so begin by
applying some frizz-ease serum to freshly washed and still damp hair.
Blow-dry using a large paddle brush. When completely
dry if you have any kinks left, run some straighteners over them - this will
help add shine too.
To style, create a side parting then adjust your fringe or
layers, leaving one eye sexily peeking from below.
Finish with some hairspray, again to add shine, and to reduce
frizz or flyaways.

Megan usually wears her hair down but it was a
sleek up-do for her first appearance at the prestigious Golden Globe
Awards. For this look,
brush back all your hair till it's silky smooth, then, leaving no
parting, pull your hair into a ponytail high at the back of your
head and secure with a hair band close to your own hair color.
Twist your ponytail and coil
it up around the hairband. (If your hair is a little unruly here,
add just a touch of water and it should help)
Secure the bun to your head
and rest of the hair using some hair pins (again in a colour close
to your hair).

Here's a how-to guide for
Victoria's low-maintenance up-do look from the December 2010
Hollywood Style Awards -

lotion - one such as
Got 2B's Guardian Angel Blow-Out Lotion
will help give a shiny finish - to your hair while it's damp.
Use a paddle
brush and blow-dry your hair straight with each stroke.
Once dry, create
a part down the middle; then pull all your hair together as
though your creating a loose, low ponytail - don't tie it
though, instead, sweep the length high up to the back of your
head and twist until the hair forms a loose bun.
Pin the bun
loosely, don't make it too tight.

use a curling iron on any tendrils you've left loose around your

For this style, it's best to apply a
gloss-enhancing serum to wet hair then blow-dry it smooth and
straight, using a paddle brush rather than a round one.
Once dry, you'll need to section the
hair into two, one section should go across the head from right to
left, and the other just
behind it from left to right - use so pins in a color close to your
hair to help hold these in place at the back.
That tricky part taken care of, gather
all your hair at the back and tie it up into a high ponytail at the
back. Be careful not to pull it too tight or you might create
some bumps at the top.
Use some curling irons to curl the hair
in the ponytail, taking the hair in large sections of about 2 to 3
inches at a time.
With all the hair in the ponytail
curled, take the curls and pin them up variously around the base of
the ponytail for Tulisa's glam up-do look.
Finish this style with a serious dose of
strong-hold hairspray for all-night hold.

For Khloe's usual glam long curl style, apply a little volumizing gel to damp
hair then, blow-dry using a large round brush to smooth, and add a little
movement at the roots.
Once dry,
set the hair into small-medium rollers, going up to about jaw-length.
After the rollers are removed and
broken up with the fingers, enhance a few curls
with a large-barrel curling iron and set with
L'Oreal Texture Infinium 3
to hold the curls in place throughout the night.

For this style, start by pulling
your hair up into a high ponytail (make sure the hair on top of the
head is still loose and not totally tight) and secure with a hair
elastic.
Tease the hair in the ponytail to add lots of volume and texture,
spraying it lightly with hairspray as you go.
Wrap the hair into a loose bun securing with bobby pins. If
you still don't have the same bulk as Kim
you can cheat and wrap your hair around a sponge (it's possible Kim
is wearing one anyway).
Use a strong-hold finishing spray at the end to make sure the style
lasts all night.
Kim's hair is a little static and
frizzy-looking at the back of the bun, this is a common effect of
back-combing or teasing but you can use a touch of hairspray to
smooth and pat it down.

Seen at - The 2011 Do
Something Awards in August 2011 Kim’s sleek
ponytail do is fairly simple if you've
got naturally straight hair; just create your part and slick it back into a high ponytail
then secure.
For naturally curly or wavy hair, though, it
takes a little more work -
Apply a little straightening balm to hair then
blow-dry with a paddle brush - creating a centre part and smoothing
out all kinks.
For a super sleek finish you could also use a straightening iron
- especially on the ends.
Once straight, pull the hair into a high ponytail
and secure with a discreet elastic.
For a fab finishing touch, spray a glossing
spray over the style for some added shine .
