For Mischa's gorgeous shiny look, first spray on some shine spray to the hair before blow-drying with a round brush.

If you have curly hair try Moroccanoil Treatment which is great for natural curls and adds shine too.

Towards the ends of the hair, use the brush to add some movement and turn the hair out but if that doesn't provide you with quite enough curl use some large barrelled curling irons on wide sections, adding some subtle curl and bounced out shape.

Create your side part and sweep all hair to one side for Mischa's complete look.

Color - Caramel brown over a dark, smoky base; with a mix of gold highlights

For the event, Alessandra wore her hair in loose spiral waves.

Get the look by first applying some volumising mousse onto your roots, then blow-drying your hair with a round brush for lots of body and movement, and Alessandra's shiny base.

Use a medium-sized curling iron to wrap medium-large sections of hair up to about ear length and going out from the face - don't be exact or precise about lengths and sections though as this should have a natural feel.

After tonging, you may feel the curls are a little too curly so just run your fingers through, or gently brush, to break them up.  Remember that most created curls do tend to drop after time though.

The Look - Glam, bouncy ponytail

Seen At - Showing off her pretty face, Ariana often wears this style and has wore it to events including the Justin Bieber: Never Say Never Premiere in February 2011, and at the Variety Awards in 2010

Blow-dry with a large round brush, straightening the lengths but adding some movement at the ends

The look at the Variety awards (right) was slightly more curled at the ends; for that effect you can either use and medium sized round brush, or used some tongs to create curls just at the ends.

The Look - Sleek long layers

Color - Dark brown with a few subtle highlights of golden and chocolate browns

For this look, first work a little shine serum or cream through damp hair.

Create a side-parting and if you have long layers like Ashley or some bangs, smooth them to one side.

Blow-dry with a paddle brush to straighten the hair, and ever so slightly cup the long layer or your bangs under (a round brush works better for this part).

If you still have any kinks when the hair is all dry, just run some ceramic straighteners over them.

The look should be complete but, if you like, you can finish with a mist of shine spray for an extra glossy look.

Creating her sexy VS runway waves, Erin had the curls created with the aid of volumizing hair spray and curling irons.

Once the curls were created they were pinned and clipped up to help them set - otherwise her hair might have got a little flat by the time she was on the runway.

After cooling (you should allow at least 10-15 minutes).  Erin's hair was brushed through - but not too hard as it would have ruined the curls.

The hair was well sprayed with hairspray to ensure lasting hold too.

Start by blow-drying your hair straight using a round brush and a blob of straightening cream like Paul Mitchell Straight Works.

Once your hair is totally dry, smooth a little John Frieda Frizz Ease Serum through the length of your hair and at the top to stop any fly ends escaping.

Now sweep your hair into a smooth ponytail, using a clip which you can get from Claire's Accessories, to fasten it.

Finish by pulling sections of your pony forwards, to frame your face.

Megan's gorgeous GG look was created by hairstylist Andy Lecompte.

He started by applying Phyto Professional Volume Mousse to Megan's hair before blow drying.

Her hair was then set using a 3/4-inch barrel curling iron and then pin curls.

Once the pin curls were released, he brushed out the hair using a Sheila Stotts detangling brush and created Megan's deep side parting.

A dab of Oribe Gel Serum was then applied with the fingertips and the hair was styled into place.

Backcomb the crown to add a bit of height to the style. Then comb the hair into a centre parting and comb the hair to the left of the parting back beyond the ear and secure to the scalp with a hair comb.

Repeat with the other side of the parting and finish off by squirting some firm-hold hairspray generously over the finished style.

A side-parting was created and for extra straightness, a flat-iron was ran over the length of the hair.

For the shimmery glitzy, strands of Bella Via Hair Glitter were tied in.

For this look, Mila was again styled by Mara Roszak, who began by appling Tresemme 24 Hour Body Foaming Mousse to Mila's wet hair.

After creating a slightly off-center parting, she blew dry the hair with a medium-sized round brush.

Mara then sectioned off Mila's hair, and used a one-inch barrel curling iron to create her gorgeous curls. When finished, she broke them up a little with her fingertips for a more natural look.

The look was complete with a spray of TressemeTres Two Extra Hold Hair Spray.

The Look - Side Swept Hollywood Curls

Seen At - The Premiere of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 in July 2011

For Ariana's glam waves, begin by applying some smoothing balm to damp hair.

Create a side parting and blow-dry using a round brush to smooth the hair while adding lots of volume at the roots.

Once dry, use a large-barrel curling iron, takin large sections of hair at a time, wrapping them up to about eye-level.

If you've got the time, try to let the curls cool as this will help them stay put for longer.

Smooth the curls through with your finger - don't brush as it could ruin them - and finish with a mist of hairspray.

For this look, start by creating some loose curls using curling irons, velcro rollers, heated rollers or whatever you prefer.

Create a centre parting and take the section at each side, pinning it at back using simple kirby grips or something fancier if the occasion calls for it.

Heidi's curls aren't just tumbling ringlets though, she has them mussed up and full of texture and volume; get the look by spraying them with texturizing spray (one that will work on wet or dry hair) and use your fingers to scrunch and boost some volume through the lengths.

For these flowing, Hollywood waves, first blow-dry the hair with a round brush for a smooth, volumous base.

Once almost totally dry, create a side parting, and curl sections of about 2-3 inches up to about brown height, using either large hot rollers or curling irons - whichever you prefer.

Once curled all the way around, break the curls up a little with your fingers but do not brush it through.

Complete with a good amount of hairspray all over the head.

For this look you might want to begin by applying a little volumiser to damp hair then blow-drying it upside down to add some height and lift at the roots, but it's not essential.

Gather all your hair up into a high ponytail at the back of the head (again, like with the blow-drying, your might find this easier to do with your head upside down).

Loop the length of the ponytail up above the band then wrap it around the base with the loose end tucked under the wrapped part.  This is basically how you create a ballet bun too but the difference with Jessica's style is it's loosely wrapped for a fuller look, rather than a ballet bun which is tightly wrapped for a neater look.

Use a few pins and a mist of hairspray to keep the bun secure.

If you have any short length tendrils, that didn't make it into the ponytail, left at the front, use a medium sized curling iron to give them a romantic look and polished finish.

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.

For this glossy look, first apply some shine-enhancing products into freshly-washed hair.

Part the hair slightly in the middle, and blow-dry using a paddle brush - avoid using a round brush as that would give this look unnecessary height.

After blow-drying use some curling irons to create the gorgeous ringlets.  Take sections of hair, roughly about 2-inches at a time - and hold the iron vertically as you wrap the hair around - going up to about ear-height.  Hold for around 15 seconds before releasing.

Once you've curled all the way around; brush the hair at the top of the head smooth and gather a small section at the centre of the back of the head, securing with a clip of your choice -  as plain or as fancy as you like.

Finish with a little mist of L'Oreal Flexible Hold Hairspray to help keep the curls in place.

Starting with freshly-washed hair, towel-dry till it's damp, then spritz on some shine spray.

If you've got wavy or curly hair, blow-dry with a paddle brush for a smooth base, but if your hair is straight you can probably skip this part.

Create a part right down the middle and set to creating those tumbling curls.  Use medium-large sized curling irons - wrapping them up to about ear height and away from the direction of the face.  Let the curls cool as you go so they will have better hold.

Once you've curled all the way around, gather the hair into a low, loose ponytail at the back of the head, leaving a small amount loose at the front to frame your face.

This style is very soft and free so avoid using too many products on it.  If your hair struggles to hold curls, though, just spritz a light mist of hairspray over them and don't ever brush them through - if they need broken up a little, use your fingers.

This look is fairly simple if you have straight hair: slick the hair back into a high ponytail, using a little gel or balm to smooth down the hair on top of the head.

Wrap some of the ponytail around the hair band to cover it. 

Finish by running some straighteners over the length of the ponytail for an extra sleek finish if you feel you need it.

For curly hair, blow-dry the hair with a paddle brush and some frizz-ease products before following the ponytail-creating steps above.

Top Tip - Don't make the ponytail too tight because it can cause some damage or breakage at the roots - especially at the front of the hairline.

In late 2009 Nicole went back to her natural brunette color and at a signing for her Winter Kate clothing range in February 2010 she rocked a fab wavy boho-chic look.

Nicole's colorist, George Papanikolas, told In Style that her new shade wasn't exactly an overnight impulse. "We have gradually been going darker over the last few months—from blonde, to dark ash blonde, then brown with golden tips and finally this rich sable brown."

For the cut print out this pic and take it to your hairdresser or ask for a cut with long, soft layers and a full, feathered fringed.

To style mist damp hair with some texturizing spray, if you hair has natural waves this look should be pretty easy - just run you fingers through, but if you have straight hair create the care-free waves with a small curling iron and break up the curls with your fingers. Don't be too precise or worry that some parts are wavier than others when creating your curls - it's all the better for a natural look.

Finish with a spritz of hairspray.

The Look - Thick side-plait

Nicole's side plait style looks fairly simple but with it's full volume, it can be a little tricky to achieve unless you've got lots of hair or thick extensions.

To get this style, begin by applying a volumizing mousse into damp hair.  You can blow-dry with a round brush if you need to, or leave it to dry naturally which will encourage some volume.

Once the hair is dry, back-combing is key.  Boost the volume at the crown and roots then gather the hair, ready to create your side plait.

Tease the hair throughout the length to increase the volume then create your plait - tying it loosely rather than plaiting it tight.

Starting with freshly-washed hair, towel-dry till it's damp, then spritz on some shine spray.

Blow-dry with a large round brush, creating some volume at the roots and crown.

Create your parting and gently backcomb the the crown for a little height at the back.

For those tumbling curls use large hot rollers, wrapping them up to about ear height and away from the direction of the face.  Let the rollers cool as you go some the curl will hold.

To create this look apply some smoothing balm and blow-dry (not totally necessary if your hair is straight).

Divide your hair at the back, leaving the upper section loose to add oomph like Paris, while gathering the rest up into a neat bun - pinning it into place.

Get the section of hair at the top and backcomb it for volume.  You might find a hairdo filler very useful when creating this.

Once your happy with the style so far get some hairspray, such as L'Oreal Elnett Hairspray, and use it to dab down any frizzy hairs.

Your finishing touch - Paris's sweet braid - again calls for a little help.

Take a Sephora Braided Headband (available in three different shades) and pin it around your volumized bun - or secure into your hair filler if you used one.

For this style, begin by creating Christina's curls.  Take sections of hair roughly one-to-two inches wide and curl them all the way up to about brow height.  Do this for all your hair.

Once the curls are made, let them cool for about 10-15 minutes to set, then you can get to work on creating Christina's half-up, half-down 'do.

Make a parting that is just slightly off-centre and pull some of your curls forward to sit over the shoulders on each side.

Gather some hair at the back to coil and pin up into a high loose bun, making sure you've left enough curls at the back - it's possible Christina used the help of an extra hair add-in at the nape of the neck here but not definite.

Finish with a fine mist of hairspray and for an extra curl boost, you might also want to recurl some of the sections for a more ringlet-y look.
