'A simply beautiful long layered haircut with subtle texture achieved by using large curling irons for a soft and sexy style. The key feature is the long fringe swept over from a side parting – which will suit most of us. To achieve this look, begin with Aveda's Brilliant Shampoo, £10.50 and Conditioner, £15. To achieve body and bounce use a large, round brush and Aveda Phomollient Styling Foam, £11 through the mid-lengths and ends. Finish with Brilliant Spray-On Shine, £15, for high-gloss flyaway-free hair. As for the colour, cool ash brunette has been the celeb shade of choice in 2006.'
