Dakota does the dip dye

January 20th 2012 09:58
Insert a pink-themed cliche here.... child star turned seriously talented young actress Dakota Fanning has dip-dyed her strands bright pink! She's the latest high profile blonde to test this trend in recent months (Kate Bosworth did it first, closely followed by Lauren Conrad), and I have a sneaking suspicion that she won't be the last.

Is that... Miranda Kerr?!

November 25th 2011 04:29
Ever wondered what Miranda Kerr would look like with a short haircut? Wonder no more - famed photographer Terry Richardson has released a black and white photograph he took of the supermodel with short, curly locks, and (no surprises here!) she looks nothing less than divine.

And the latest star to go red is...

November 9th 2011 07:02
... singer and former Disney girl Demi Lovato! She posted this photo on her Twitter account earlier this week, with her long, usually dark brown locks dyed a gorgeous shade of coppery red.

Who says a haircut can't be meaningful? Actress Michelle Williams, who has a six-year-old daughter with the late Heath Ledger, recently told the UK's Elle magazine that she keeps her now-trademark pixie cut in memoriam of the actor... despite the fact that she's currently single, and is only too aware that most men prefer women who wear their hair long.

Celebrity Hair: January Jones

September 6th 2011 00:13
Since she first took on the role of Betty Draper in TV's Mad Men four years ago, January Jones has gone from being a little known bit player to a full-time star. She's got her career on hold for the moment, however, as she's due to give birth to her first child later this month. As for her hair? She's a classic Nordic blonde who has yet to go over to the dark side, instead choosing to dress up her shoulder length bob with a variety of accessories and methods of styling. Check out these beautiful photos of January Jones for your own hairstyle inspiration.

A curious case of blue tips

August 5th 2011 08:42
She may not have set foot on a major movie set in years, but sometime Hollywood actress Kate Bosworth is still a target for photographers on account of her impeccable sense of style. Like Rachel Bilson, she's frequently spotted in the front row of major fashion shows and gets invited to many a red carpet event, as her very presence implies that the designer or product being spruiked at said event is at the forefront of high fashion. Not bad work if you can get it!

One hairstyle, four ways

July 19th 2011 10:36
Growing out a pixie cut is always going to have its challenging moments, but that's not to say it can't be done in high style - just ask Emma Watson! The Harry Potter actress, whose short haircut in August last year made headlines around the world, has chosen to embrace her newly grown-out pixie crop by wearing it in a variety of different ways.

Blake Lively's redheaded debut

April 27th 2011 11:45
Score one for the gingers! Rising superstar Blake Lively has traded in her signature blonde locks for a seriously head-turning shade of red. In New York for the Time 100 Gala, Miss Lively was in her element as she posed for photographers on the red carpet last night. As for the dress? A stunning seafoam green gown by Lebanese designer Zuhair Murad that contrasted beautifully with the 23-year-old starlet's new hair colour.

Celebrity Hair: Emma Roberts

February 12th 2011 20:22
When you're the niece of a certain Julia and you have a face that looks like this, becoming one of the many "next big things" in Hollywood is really just a lead role or two away. 20-year-old Emma Roberts first caught our attention as the star of 2007's Nancy Drew, and while some of her follow-up roles have erred on the forgettable side (Hotel for Dogs, anyone?) she'll be making up for lost time later this year in the highly anticipated Scream 4. Emma's no stranger to mixing up her hair colour - she's worked the full spectrum from light ash blonde to auburn to nearly black, and is yet to stumble into hair-don't territory. Scroll down to check out some gorgeous photos of Emma's hair.

When it comes to iconic hairstyles, The Rachel is right up there with the best of them: a style as synonymous with the 1990s as Farrah Flicks were with the 1970s. When Rachel Green on Friends (played by a little-known actress by the name of Jennifer Aniston) had her mousy waves chopped into a layered shoulder-length bob, the look was at once so striking yet so effortlessly chic that it created a worldwide phenomenon, with women of all ages and nationalities rushing to the salon to have their hair cut just like Rachel's.

Taylor Swift's hot AMAs hair

November 22nd 2010 19:57
Making a bold departure from her signature blonde curls, Taylor Swift hit the red carpet at Sunday night's AMAs with a poker-straight hairstyle complete with a blunt fringe. The dramatic new style was teamed with a shiny, studded minidress, making the country singer look even more glamorous than she usually does (and that's saying something!)

Celebrity Hair: Emma Stone

October 21st 2010 01:37
If you don't recognise Emma Stone's name, then don't worry - she's not huge in Hollywood just yet, but it's only a matter of time until this gorgeous (and talented!) young actress becomes an international star. The leading lady of this year's Easy A will soon be appearing alongside Steve Carell and Julianne Moore in the comedy Crazy, Stupid, Love, and will be returning to her naturally blonde roots when she plays Gwen Stacy in the 2012 reboot of the Spider-Man film series. Right now, the soon-to-be 22-year-old is rocking the sensational red locks that made her the hot commodity she was in Easy A. Scroll down to check out some great photos of Emma Stone's hair.

Also known as 'ombre' hair, the trend for graduated hair colour has moved from the runways to the celebrity circuit in a matter of months. Essentially, the look is that of having seriously grown-out roots: dark at the base, with a lighter graduation in colour through the length of the hair. It can either be "naturally" acquired like Jessica Biel's (she had her brown hair dyed platinum blonde for her 2008 film Easy Virtue, and has been growing out the vestiges of that colour ever since), or just made to look natural through clever colouring techniques such as balayage.
