| LILY ALDRIDGE’S SHADE: Deep chestnut roots that fade to a tawny medium brown. WHAT MAKES IT HOT: You may not recognize Victoria’s Secret model Lily Aldridge—but chances are you love her hair. “It’s by far one of the most requested looks in my salon,” says Cunningham. “There’s just something appealing and easy about those bleached-out ends.” WHO IT WORKS FOR: Natural brunets will have the most luck pulling this shade off. Simply ask your colorist to add uneven ribbons of a lighter hue—and keep in mind, balayage highlights, that is, those painted directly onto the hair shaft without foils or a cap, will look the most believable.

WHO IT WORKS FOR: According to Townsend, a short cut is a great option for someone looking to lose brittle, damaged hair. “It’s also a perfect way to show off a long, graceful neck like Cate’s,” he says.

| GWYNETH PALTROW’S STYLE: Below-the-shoulders strands and scattered, imperceptible layers. WHAT MAKES IT HOT:Face-framing layers à la Rachel Green may finally be a thing of the past. As Townsend sees it, a uniform length is more 2010; razored ends give the cut movement and keep it from looking drab or drapey. WHO IT WORKS FOR: “Honestly, this cut works for nearly any face shape. Styling it with off-center part would flatter a heart-shaped face, a center part looks stunning on an oval face,” he says. (CREDIT: John Shearer/WireImage) See the Full Story |

| EVA MENDES’S STYLE: Side-swept bangs that fall along the bridge of the nose. WHAT MAKES IT HOT: “Lots of women are bothered by hair in their eyes,” says Townsend. “If you can stand it, there’s just something incredibly racy about swingy, eyelash-grazing bangs.” WHO IT WORKS FOR: These bangs look great on a variety of face shapes but they’re especially effective in minimizing a longer face.

| KIM KARDASHIAN’S STYLE: Gradual layers that start at the chin. WHAT MAKES IT HOT: “If your hair is this long, keeping it a single length can look like a flat sheet of hair. These long, uniform layers give the style a luxe, controlled movement,” says Townsend. WHO IT WORKS FOR: “This cut is best for someone with lots of thick hair, be it natural or extensions. Fine hair can look straggly with too many layers,” he says. (CREDIT: Jason LaVeris/Getty Images) See the Full Story |
