Trend: Volume"Beyonce's look is way too 80's retro. The volume is out of proportion with her features, which makes her face look too small," says Abramite. Jennifer Aniston instead combines moderate volume with soft, billowy waves for a sexy lifted look that works. |
Trend: Center Part"It's difficult to pull off a middle part with a ponytail without it looking like Marcia Brady," says Abramite of Megan Fox's too-long, too-flat extensions. "Kim Kardashian's look works because she curled the hair away from her face with some lift at the part, creating an ultra soft sexiness." |
Trend: Hippie-Chic Hair"Mischa Barton is wearing her headband like an athletic sweatband, not a fashion accessory. It abruptly cuts off the flow of the whole style. Nicole Ritchie is wearing the band in the right place, and tilted diagonally back so it's moving away from the face. It flows with ease and compliments her soft layers which are moving in the same direction," says Abramite. |

Trend: Super Straight Hair"Rachel Bilson's long hair is flat ironed pin straight, which is pulling her features down and eliminating movement from her style. Debra Messing's hair is also flat ironed to create smoothness, but with the edges slightly beveled under to give movement and softness to her face framing layers," says Abramite. |
Trend: BangsOne quality makes bangs sexy: movement. "Jessica Alba's bangs don't work for her face because they're too blunt, immobile and heavy-looking. Reese Witherspoon's bangs are full with the right amount of soft layers on the edges to make them perfectly wispy," says Abramite. |
Trend: Blonde Ambition"The key to going very blonde is combining a variety of hues to compliment your skin tone, like Kelly Ripa. This creates dimension and movement. Heather Locklear's overprocessed hair lacks shine and depth. It's also too light for her skin tone, which washes her out," says Abramite. |

Trend: Braids"Fergie's braids are pulled back way too tightly and the overuse of product makes them look greasy. Lauren Conrad wears her braids like a hair accessory--just a subtle compliment to her long soft layered style." says Abramite. |
Trend: Side PartHair should always look movable, never too severe. Liv Tyler's harsh, slicked-back side part makes her bangs look "heavy, bulky and solid," says Abramite. Eva Longoria's part wins thanks to her breezy style: "her layered hair is cut diagonally, creating an airy, light, side swept look." |
