Mandy Moore's Haircut Styles 2009, 2010

Mandy Moore is a very popular singer and actress. While she’s been likened to pop princesses like Britney Spears, Mandy’s style is much more versatile and much more real. Her style is one that anyone can get and almost everyone looks good in them. Here are a few of her most commonly sought after hairstyles.
Mandy Moore Hair

Wavy and Long
Mandy had her hair down just past her shoulders. She had it layered and had her side bangs cut to frame her face. Mandy’s bangs were parted in the middle and swept to either side of her face. If you don’t have waves like Mandy’s, use a large barrel curling iron or hot rollers and roll them in. Then use your fingers to loosen the curls to the waves you want.

Softly Short
Mandy’s short hairstyle is easy to recreate and beautiful for any shaped face. To get this look, part your hair off center. Pull it back into a loose ponytail and pin in back. Let a little bit of your hair come down your neck and curl towards your face. Have some side bangs and pull them back while still letting them cover just the sides of your forehead. The bangs will enhance your facial features. This is a great look that you can adapt in many ways, such as adding accessories, or braiding your hair loosely and then pinning it up in the back.

The Natural
For this look, have your hair trimmed in flowing layers. Make sure you go to a stylist for this one so that the layers can be done in a flattering way. Add some curls with a large barrel curling iron and loosen them into waves. If you want, pull the top layers back and pin them, as if you were putting your hair half up. Use a bit of mousse and your fingers to finish off the style.

Getting Bridesmaid Hair - 2010 Season Tips

Getting Bridesmaid Hair - 2010 Season Tips

One of the most unique challenges for styling bridesmaid hair is for theme weddings where the hairstyle must work with an ornament such as a flower halo which is very popular in medieval weddings. During this period of time, braided hairstyles were quite common because most of the women wore long hair and this was the simplest way to keep a neat appearance.

But today, the trends in women’s hairstyles have changed and many women wear their hair shorter. If you are a member of a wedding with a medieval theme, you can still achieve this charming “braided crown” look for bridesmaid hair by using hair extensions to elongate the hair to whatever length you want.
If hair extensions don’t appeal to you, another way to accomplish this look is with vertical rows of braids angled toward the top of the head. To complete the look, simply use ribbons that match the color of your dress and weave them into the hair. Using the ends to affect the desired look of the braided crown or you can use the ends of the braids as anchor points to secure the flower halo.
Braids were not the only stylish hairdo used in medieval wedding. During the Renaissance the use of “taping” was very popular. This style is ideal for long bridesmaid hair and done by first parting the hair at the center of the head, then twisting the two sections of hair into coils, wrapping them around the head and securing them with hairpins.
