Want to color your hair blonde? Get a blonde foil with varying degrees of warm blond lowlights, allow your natural color to still be present to avoid a high maintenance hairstyle.

The most natural blond color -Scarlett Johansson

***If you're going to go blonde, follow Scarlett's example above with warmer blonde lowlights foiled in. Unlike below, her hair does not look bleached and the above color will allow your skin tone to glow.

When describing to your stylist what use terms like caramel, golden, to keep your hair from being too ashy or bleached. Make sure your natural is color is mixed in to have a low maintenance style. Have your stylist go a little lighter around your face to frame it.

Kate Bosworth's hairstyle--

Two styles-- a more casual layed look and a straight hair bob.






The Intellectual Look--

For a more writerly look or collegiate look, try red hair with a slight sideswipe bang. The color is what's working here-- an auburn red with just a little bit of red highlights around the face.


I love both of the styles in this photo above. Urban sophisicated. Though Norah's hair could fit a lot situations and styles.

For long hair, Norah Jones has a wonderful look.

Best Hairstyles for Women in their . . . .

The next couple weeks we're going to focus in on each generation and give you Best Hair for Women in their 20's, 30's, 40's, 50's, 60's, 70's and onward!

Our goal is to try offer hairstyles that allow each woman to find herself in the style. For example, you may not be a girly-girl, perhaps you're more on an artist type or intellectual. You might be a feminist who prefers long locks, or someone who wants a quick style. You may be a tomboy, but you like to look good. Or you just might like good hair. We hope to have many styles to choose from. Some may be celebrities, others just real people with nice hair. We're open.

We will start with women in their 20's and work our way up.

We hope these styles offer many choices for you as we begin fall, which too me (who has spent most of her life in school) feels more like a new year than the new year.

So let's begin, best hair for women in their...

The Bob is Back - The Official Fall Hairstyle of 2007

Ellen Barkin and Paris Hilton wear the hair well. While I'm guessing Ms. Hilton's hair is just tucked up in the back to give the illusion of a bob haircut, Ms. Barkin's is the classic short in the back, longer in the front with some modern layering.

What this shows is that you can wear this style in a sophisticated way in your 20's, your 40's, or older. It's not a hairstyle that dates you.

You can see we here at Hair Obsessed have a soft spot for the bob--modern, classic, geometrical--this year, it's back. I haven't even mentioned Posh Spice - Victoria Beckham who opened the style up.

Best Hair for the Oval Face Shape - Emma Roberts

This is going to take some imagination, but Emma Roberts has the perfect haircut for oval or long faces. The hairstyle she has here is great for younger folks, even women in their 40's and 50's can get away with longer hair, but if you need a more professional style haircut, start with this and basic style of side parted bangs and shorten the length.

Those of use with longer faces, know the issue-- long hair on a long face leads to the look of sadness. Think back to Nicholas Cage in Valley Girl. He always looked so sad in that movie--though mostly due to the eyebrows in the question position--but nothing a good haircut couldn't cure.

If you have a long face, the goal is not to make it look longer, but to make it rounder and you can do that with bangs, or a shorter length, or some body on the sides (see the Keira Knightley photo above).

For a shorter style to this Emma Roberts look, I'd say keep the bangs and the basic cut, but do an angled cut (shorter in the back, longer in the front) to keep it a little more professional. If you're unemployed or just look good in long hair, this style is for you. Still, I'd say anyone over 35 should bring it up in length 2 inches as if you look, those last 2 inches of her hair aren't doing much for the overall style and really, we don't need anything extra to take time away from our days, do we?

Give us the simple styles and let us return to our lives as usual.

Best Bangs - Paris Hilton

While I am not the a fan of Paris Hilton, I am a fan of her bangs.

Her color require a lot of maintenance on most women and her hair is just a little too long for most women and don't even get me started on upkeep needed on extensions, she has the most stylish bangs. Imagine if the back of her was cropped and short and she just had these long side bangs across her face-- perfection.

And while I'm sure "best bangs" will get a lot of people to this website who are looking for something complete different, I just have to say that Paris Hilton wears her style well.

Sexy Bob is not an Oxymoron

Keira Knightley as the new Chanel woman sports the classic bob with sex appeal. Proof, that the bob hairstyle is back and not just for the preppy folks on the tennis court. A slightly layered bob with side-swipe bangs with loads of curl. A haircut that passes "the finger test," even without Keira's gorgeous look, the hairstyle works on its own.

Also, just a note that Keira has said that her breasts in this photo aren't hers.

“Those things certainly weren’t mine. We had an interesting discussion when they said: ‘We want to make them slightly larger and you’ll get approval’ and I was like: ‘OK, fine. I honestly don’t give a sh*t’.”

“I don’t have any t*ts, so I can’t show cleavage.”

We here at Hair Obsessed appreciate her honesty and her flair for the English language and its slangy terms.
