1. Add a flowery accent.
Try blossoms on a headband—an update on that old bloom-in-hair thing. Shopstyle.com has a huge selection.
Do face-framing swoops.
Think half sleek…
Use a flatiron to straighten hair, clip it in the back and fluff it up.
…or pouf the crown.
Tease up and down with a comb; pin.
Try a dressy pony.
An exceptionally smooth one (use gel) with hair around the elastic is elegant—not at all workout-y.
Go low.
Sweep hair to the side so it dips over an eye.
Be a body builder.
Get Charlize’s heft, even if hair is thin, by twirling it with a big round brush as you blow-dry.
Clip hair at your nape.
Then let it casually fall forward over your shoulders. Offset it with statement earrings.
Pin back bangs.
Back-comb for height.
Work contrasting color.
Mary’s revelatory blond-over-brown bob deserves an award or something. (Just see a pro for complex color like this.)
Fake a short cut.
Use a curling iron to create chic ringlets, gather at the back, tuck length up and under and pin.
Get all edgy-sweet.
Piecey bangs plus a braid gets you schoolgirl gone bad.
Make a top braid.
Starting one at the front of your hair, not the back, keeps it fresh.
Borrow from a ballerina.
No, it’s not exactly breakthrough, but it’s amazing how a sleek bun is so sexy every time.
