Julie Benz Formal Hair

Filed under:Formal Hair Styles — Laurie @ 4:37 pm

Julie Benz shows two formal hair styles here, one with a simpler ponytail approach and the other in a low chignon. Before looking at the hair styles, let’s look at her facial shape. Julie has a heart shaped face with sharp jaw lines. The width of her forehead is about the same as from her cheeks thus having a sweep across the face area is definitely a great styling feature which both hairstyles here have.

The first look is a simple hairstyle with a very strong parting and the brushed back in a round fashion and gathered at the lower back. The hair is then tied and gathered into a straight ponytail that can be swept to the side. It is simple but does a fantastic job at showing her facial features and beautiful hair color with highlights and lo-lites.

The second look does a little better job of producing an elegant appeal using the same strong parting and a swept portion across the facial area. The hair is brushed back and bundled in a tight bun at the nape of the neck. Comparing both hair styles, another key element to both is how the hair is brushed back to create that unique front view. Both hair styles look beautiful and Julie looks amazing.

Eva Chignon Hairstyle

Filed under:Chignon — Laurie @ 11:18 pm

A lot of women do not get the concept that a hairstyle can be matched to attire or at least there are a lot of different ways to compliment what your wearing through your hairstyle. Some women overdo the hairstyle and it takes away from the complete look while others just choose a hairstyle that does not fit as well. Eva Longoria has always done a hands down job matching her hair to her wardrobe and in this photo she does it to perfection. The dress is a strapless piece with design around the top which is meant to be shown. Eva goes with a soft chignon with a sweep of the hair strong to one side instead of going for the high bun or leaving the tresses to hang around the sides. If she would have selected the other the other two styles, it would have taken away the appeal of the dress and look overall. This chignon looks classy and chic while still allowing the dress to shine. Take notes ladies because this is just one of the great ways to style an elegant hair style.

Tyra’s Shoulder Length Hair

Filed under:Medium Hair Styles — Laurie @ 2:38 pm


Photo from PR Photos

Tyra Banks letting her hair grow out just past her shoulders is nothing new but the way the hair is styled is what makes the big difference. This is as simple as can be for a medium hairstyle with a simple middle parting with the hair left straight down. The hair is not styled away from the face to allow for framing and softening of facial features which is the key to this simple look. Other ways to enhance the look is to add mid-length curls to the strands but still make sure the hair is not brushed away from the facial area. For anyone looking for a simple, yet beautiful starting point for shoulder length hair, this is IT.
