INSIDE SCOOP Frederic Fekkai hairstylist Renato Campora gave Reese Witherspoon a fun, retro ponytail to complement her sleek black and white gown. He divided dry hair into two sections, curling the bottom layer with a 1-1/2 inch iron for volume, and teasing the roots of the top section with a fine tooth comb. He swept it back, securing in place at the crown of the head and finished with a blast of sheer hold hairspray.

THE STYLE A side part and smooth, shapely spirals
WHERE The 13th Annual Costume Designer Awards in Beverly Hills
INSIDE SCOOP "We decided on this look because it suits Kristin Davis's classic style, channels a bit of Rita Hayworth-and flatters the grandeur of her dress," said hairstylist Marcus Francis, who created the look. He dosed the roots with a volumizer and worked a dollop of mousse through wet strands before blowing drying and setting the entire head in chunky pin curls. "I brushed out the hair after five minutes and set it again," Francis explains. "I wanted it to bounce and move throughout the night for Kristin."

INSIDE SCOOP "For Ashley Greene's look, I spritzed a volumizing agent at the scalp and on the ends, and then smoothed flyaways with one of my hairsheets to give the hair shine and bounce before blow drying," said the actress's hairstylist Ted Gibson. "I softened the ends with a medium-sized curling iron and finished with a blast of light hold hairspray."

If graduated, face-framing layers are feeling a bit dated, advise your hairstylist to go for a series of long, one-length layers throughout. It's a fresh look with subtle impact.

INSIDE SCOOP Couture Colour hairstylist David Babaii calls Gwyneth Paltrow's look "wild bohemian." Starting with clean, damp hair, Babaii dosed Paltrow's strands with an oil treatment before rough-drying it for texture and shine. He wrapped random sections around a one-inch curling iron, taking care to only clip the center of the strands, leaving the roots and ends free. "That's how you create that uneven wave pattern," he explained. To finish, he ran his fingers through the waves to loosen up too-tight spirals.

WHAT SHE SAID "There’s two different ways I feel very beautiful and sexy," Jennifer Lopez told us at the event. "This first is a long big mane, like this. I’m a Leo, so I need my mane. But I also love the opposite, which is my hair pulled really tight and off my face. That probably represents the two sides of me."

WHY WE LOVE IT Minka Kelly's touchable style, created by Mark Townsend, reminded us of a simple truth: No matter how good your haircut is, if your hair isn't styled well, no one will know. If you've got long layers-and most of us do-rather than blowing them out pin-straight, take a few extra minutes to add a slight curl on the ends. It flatters your face and gives a simple style welcome movement.

That way, you get a glimpse of the effortlessly undone 'do from every angle,” said Suave Professionals hairstylist Jenny Cho. To literally knot Agron's strands, Cho split the hair down the center in two sections. "Tie the two sections like you're tying a bow and secure with pins. Then make another knot right under the first, and secure with more pins. Leave the ends out to give it the undone finish," she advises.
