ghd website, selecting the styles of the moment:
Emma Watson: Her coming-of-age crop is a beautiful tailored style, well-executed and easy to maintain. All it needs is a little wax to style and regular four-weekly cuts. Recommended: Control Paste Finishing Paste, £19.50, Aveda. Natalie Portman: Her relaxed, natural style with loose curls shaped around the face is easy to achieve with heated rollers, which give hair movement and softness. Recommended: Cloud Nine TheO heated roller pod, £152.95, Amazon.
Keira Knightley: Her latest bob gives her an air of maturity and grace. To define the texture, it benefits from a little spray gel through the roots. Recommended: Aussie Dual Personality texturising and conditioning gel spray, £4.69, Boots.
Michelle Obama: Fashion icon Michelle’s classic look is longer and more textured in 2011, with plenty of volume and gloss. This well-groomed style needs plenty of conditioning to enhance shine. Recommended: Frederic Fekkai Coiff Perfecteur anti-frizz silkening creme, £20, Space NK.
Rihanna: She has grown her hair a little recently, which gives it a great shape. Her bright colour is spot on, as vivid red is very fashionable, but it needs careful maintenance. Recommended: Kiehl’s sunflower color preserving masque, £25, John Lewis.
Cheryl Cole: The brunette’s styles are ever changing, featuring tumbling curls, plaits, topknots and beehives. Her varied looks depend on plenty of volume, extensions and beautiful hair accessories. Recommended: Deco pearl large hair slide, £24, Glitzy Secrets.
Lady GaGa: The platinum blonde star wears long extensions with bouncy curl. Her dramatic styles take hours to achieve a finished look. Instead of regular washing, a dry shampoo can be handy. Recommended: Bumble and Bumble White hair powder, £28, Liberty.
Britney Spears: For her comeback this year, she’s wearing her hair long, golden, with tumbling waves: the look she’s best known for. But her bleached hair will need added gloss to avoid looking dull. Recommended: Frederic Fekkai salon glaze, £24, Selfridges.
Frankie Sandford: This style is perfection — an edgy,
pourpre ghd, creative, assymetric short haircut, which can be worn in lots of different ways. The cut creates a triangle of length through the top section, which can be worn both sides, changing the look completely. Frankie’s style needs products that work with her wave, creating definition. Recommended: Kiehl’s weightless curl defining spray, £18, John Lewis.
Victoria Beckham: Her latest extensions achieve a long, bouncy style, with versatility for up-dos. Her softly sculpted ponytails and buns need help to achieve a smooth, shiny finish. Recommended: Light Elements smoothing fluid, £20.50, Aveda.
