This post is not to show a specific updo but to show why pleating or brushing the hair back and opening up the face can make a huge difference in the total look. Devon Aoki has long, sleek hair that can be work straight or with curls which she has already done very well. Here she shows an open face with the hair brushed back and away and pinned in the back. NOT ALL WOMEN CAN PULL THIS OFF!!! Some women will find that producing a similar hairstyle will create very different results because the way the hair is styled really draws attention to the facial area and any problem area. Devon has very feminine features that flow out with the hairstyle and makes her look gorgeous. Women with wider foreheads, angular jaw lines, wider cheek areas, and other features that stand out more may not find hairstyles like these to be as flattering. Thus it is a key point to always go through a trial run before any major event and ask others how the hairstyle looks on you.

Tara Reid’s Change Up Hairstyle

Filed under:Updo's — Laurie @ 8:41 pm

long hairstyle

Tara Reid has made a little push back into the lime light and does a fantastic job of donning this great hairstyle. This is a great look for her which is a change from the straight and sleek look she often has on. The hairstyle combines a little messy with some light curling of a few tresses. The front of the hair features angular bangs that add a touch of facial framing and the shorter locks around the face are flared out for even more uniqueness to the hairstyle. This hairstyle is one of her better choices and shows how to change looks up by adding a few features.

Liv Tyler Beauty Personified

Filed under:Updo's — Laurie @ 9:53 pm

updo hairstyle

This hairstyle on the lovely Liv Tyler is very exceptional, especially for her facial shapes and features. Liv has an oval face shape and the hair is a simple tie back with split bangs in the front for a very cute look. The parted bangs and strands of hair on both sides of the face add a touch to the look and is very complimentary to other facial features. The hairstyle allows Liv’s delicate facial features to come out more and combine more with less hair in the front. This is a very beautiful hairstyle that can be copied for any occasion.

Two sides of Avril

Filed under:Updo's — Laurie @ 2:31 pm

long hairstyle

Since her change to blonde hair, Avril has been given alot of criticism for going away from the grungy, punky hairstyle she has been known for all these years. Those hairstyles made her look fantastic and beautiful. However, she still seems to bring out a beautiful look to the other hairstyle as well which is shown here. Avril comes strong with new music and back to the old look with the blonde and still rocks it.

Kim Raver’s Half-updo

Filed under:Updo's — Laurie @ 6:52 pm

half updo hairstyle

The half updo is an interesting hairstyle that can be more up than down or more down than up and here Kim Raver has styled her hair in the latter. The hair allows for some shorter locks to spruce up the facial area while some hair from the back is setup in a nice little bundle and falls down. This is a simple way to change up anyones hairstyle and it provides a very fresh appeal. The hairstyle is done by combing the hair thats at the top section and rolling in in a bun while allowing some strands to fall through. Very simple and beautiful all combine into one.

New Year’s Bride

Filed under:Updo's — Laurie @ 7:22 pm

wild updo

Congratulations to Nikki Cox and Jay Mohr on their wedding to start of the new year. Nikki is a stunning beauty with hair styles of all different lengths and sizes which all look great. Here is an example of a wild updo, great for a number of events. The hair is brushed back and a hair band is used to hold it in place. Small strands are pulled out for a wild look. The key to this hairstyle is to use a hair band that allows for pulling out strands of hair. Another key is to make sure flyaway hair is managed by using finishing spray throughtout the back and sides of the hairstyle.

Cook’s Updo

Filed under:Updo's — Laurie @ 2:15 am

updo

This is a very interesting cut from a actress who looks great in many different cuts. Rachel Leigh Cook made a splash with medium and shorter hairstyles and this one from a front view looks like another great addition to the short cuts in her repertoire but is actually an updo. The front has a slight sweep of the bangs and the bang is tied up in a bun set at the nape. The hairstyle matches Rachel cute, well rounded face.

A Grudgingly Beautiful Hairstyle

Filed under:Updo's — Laurie @ 11:49 am

half updo

This is a very cut half-updo on the very cute and lovely Amber Tamblyn for the premiere of the Grudge 2. This is a very, very beautiful hairstyle with many elements to it. The curly tresses in combination with the highlights, swept bangs, and hair tied towards the back create the whole look. This is a safe hairstyle for all facial shapes as the locks and bangs provide attention and framing. A great prom hairdo as well for teen girls.
