6. Rose Byrne Medium Updo: Classic side bun
Actress Rose Byrne looks sophisticated and poised with her classic side bun up’do. This quirky-yet-chic hairstyle is a contemporary option for formal events, and it’s easy to recreate at home.

Reality TV personality and fashion designer Lauren Conrad looks gorgeous with her hazel brown hair in a polished side bun. We love her smooth, sleek locks and the sweeping side-fringe that draws attention to her stunning green eyes. For hair as smooth as Lauren’s, take special care of your locks when drying and styling. Pat your hair dry rather than rubbing it vigorously with a towel to prevent breakage and rough hair cuticles that cause frizz.

Fashion model Cara Delevingne looks fierce and fabulous with her super-high bun hairstyle. This “off-duty model” look is contemporary and effortlessly chic, and it suits almost every face shape.

The beehive (named after the similarity in shape to an actual beehive) is a playful retro style that suits most face shapes. Recreate this sexy ‘do at home by pumping you hair full of volume before winding it up into a “reverse cone” shape.
