Michelle Dockery: Square Ask for a short, blunt bob that skims the jawline and is slightly “cut into” to give it more movement and fullness. This is what the cut looks like styled straight.

Same cut, just tousled. Use a curling iron to curl one section toward the face, then curl the next one away from the face. Repeat, alternating directions. Finish by ruffling the roots with your fingers.

Amy Grant: Round Ask for razored layers from the cheekbones to the collarbone that are texturized to appear wispy or enhance any natural curl.

The same cut looks great straight. To get the look, blow-dry two-inch sections using a round brush.

Naomi Watts: Heart-shaped Ask for a shoulder-skimming bob with face-framing layers cut to part near the center.

Wear it flapper-style. Curl hair with a curling iron, then comb through; slide long bobby pins into the dip of each wave and set for 15 minutes.

Christina Hendricks: Square Ask for a mid-length bob that falls just above the shoulders with stacked layers and temple-length bangs.

To wear the cut straight, blow-dry a section, then loosely pin-curl it to the crown. When it's dry, remove pins and brush from the underside.

Brooke Burke-Charvet: Square Ask for razored layers between the cheekbones and chin, which remove weight and add the airy texture.

To get the piecey look with this 'do, blow-dry with a one-inch round brush.

To get the most versatility from bangs, have the stylist cut them longer than your eyebrows.

Alicia Quarles: Heart-shaped Ask for lots of short layers: think two- and three-inch pieces.

Emma Stone: Round Ask for a mid-length cut with very blended layers that start three inches below the chin, plus full, blunt bangs.

The secret to side-swept bangs? Comb them to one side while they’re still wet and anchor them in place with a bobby pin—they’ll dry perfectly!
