Jade Jagger
\'Jade has really blonded up her usually bronze colour with warm and \'old gold\' tones, blended with some lighter creamier tones through the front. She can take a warmer blonde as her skin is so tanned. The lighter front section gives a real sunlit effect. When she leaves it natural and wavy you can really see the mix of tones and it does have that "beach-lightened look" yet when she blow-dries it smooth the tones work well together and blend to give an overall lighter look.\'

\'Although Sienna\'s hair is quite short, it\'s very, very sexy and above all stylish and confident. The layers are completely shattered and texturised throughout and her choice of cool baby blonde is youthful and flatters fine hair. The fact that the parting can be worn anywhere from the middle, to either side gives total versatility. Movement is the key to this look. Blast dry using your hairdryer and then finish by using Punk Chic, £7.95 from the Wella High Hair range, for separation and enhanced texture. Finally, finish the whole look with your hands, parting the hair gently in a sweeping motion at the front for that authentic \'60s look.\'

\'June is a real hair chameleon who regularly experiments with different styles and textures of extensions. One of her stand-out looks of 2006 was when she wore it long with a heavy fringe and slices of chocolate and blonde colour throughout. To achieve this ultra-sleek style you need to blow-dry relaxed or human hair extensions straight with a good heat-protectant product such as MIZANI Thermastrength Strengthening Style Serum, £11.25. To finish, use a high gloss serum like MIZANI Spradiance, £12.25, 0800 072 6699 through the ends to give tresses a super silky sheen.\'

Nicole Kidman
\'For me\' Nicole Kidman represents the pinnacle of modern-day, red-carpet glamour. Reds in hair are a very in trend this season and Nicole\'s pale red-blonde tones are a really key fashion look right now. The secret to Nicole\'s stunning hair is in its fabulous condition. She maintains really healthy and vital hair by investing time and effort in the condition and care of her hair. To achieve a similar look try setting and drying hair on large Velcro rollers, then brushing smooth with a quality bristle brush, such as a Mason Pearson. Try using Redken\'s All Soft Silk Fuel, £13.50, 0800 444880, to infuse softness and shine for glamorous shiny locks, and always invest in professional haircare.\'

\'The cut is a classic long layer cut, with the layers left extra long to give that slightly grown-out look. The disconnected and deep fringe is a very definite element, whatever else is done to the hair. The loose tonging produces a more glamorous feel, suitable for an evening out. To style this look at home use a soft styling spray such as MOP Styling Tonic, £8.95,
www.HQhair.com and blow-dry smooth with a large round brush. Then, using a medium-barrel tong take random sections and curl loosely, dressing out using the fingers. For a more \'grungy\' interpretation, apply Schwarzkopf OSiS Dust It, £9.50,
www.schwarzkopf-professional.co.uk generously at the root, creating extra body without hair looking overstyled. The compact packaging makes it perfect for a clubby night out as you can transform yourself in the cab on the way from one event to another!\'

\'Sandra Bullock\'s bob has masses of red-carpet appeal. The bob is a classic one cut just above the shoulder, with a little peekaboo fringe adding real sexiness. It\'s really versatile too, as in the evening she can tong it as she did at the Venice film festival à la Veronica Lake! As it such a classic shape it really does suit most people. The secret of success is shine. Use Kérastase Vernis Nutri-Sculpt, £15, 0800 316 4400, for a super-shiny top coat, and use a prescriptive haircare programme to keep your hair in peak condition - this is especially important with a bob which frames your face constantly!\'

Audrey Tautou
\'The epitome of Parisian chic, this gamine style remains an international classic. The softly tousled feminine texture is easiest to achieve on medium to thick hair with natural wave. To recreate the look, use colour for texture and movement and keep the fringe short to display as much of the face as possible if you have delicate features à la Audrey, otherwise keep things a little longer.\'

Kylie Minogue
\'Kylie\'s texturised crop has loads of personality. She\'s grown her fringe out a little and the style is feathered around the ears for softness. Adding colour to short locks really enhances shape and creates more body with slices, smudges, highlights or lowlights creating the optical illusion of additional texture. To encourage a sexy tumbling effect in short, choppy styles blast hair dry, ruffling it with your fingers as you go. When almost dry, with the palm of your hand scrub strands in circular motions with the airflow of the hairdryer directed down from directly above. Finish with L\'Oréal Professionnel Play Ball Motion Gelée, £11.50, to leave locks tousled and lustrous looking.\'

Victoria Beckham
\'The Victoria Beckham haircut is best suited to those with a triangular or oval shaped face. It\'s quite a low-maintenance style, particularly if you have fine, straight hair. Ask your hairdresser for a graduated bob, which basically means the hair near the nape of the neck is kept quite short with length retained through the front. Use a blow dry lotion such as Senscience Revive Silk Styling Crème £12.95, 01282 683100, as opposed to mousse or spray so the hair will move more freely. A good pair of straightening irons will come in handy but first blow-dry hair from side to side until nearly dry then blow-dry ends under.\'

\'Natalie\'s transformation has got hairdressers cutting hair again. This adaptable bob can be blow-dried straight or twisted around the fingers with Moussette, £6.95 from Clynol and diffused for a natural, tousled look. The back can be blow-dried upwards and use some free-flow to give a choppy, full look at the back then make the front really sleek for a contrast. You can get the crown really full too with a large round brush and some massive spray to compliment the \'60s tunic dresses. Going shorter doesn\'t have to mean you look masculine - unless you want to.\'

\'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.\'
