In the May issue of Sugar we showed you how to get easy, speedy up ‘dos worthy of any red carpet! So how do the celebs fare when it comes to hiking up their hair?

DO
Natalie Portman

This sleek and sophisticated up do is hard to achieve on your own, you’ll need someone to help you pin the hair in place but it gives her look a grown up feel. She keeps it looking fresh by going for very natural make up.

DON’T
Nicola Roberts

The gorgeous Girls Aloud babe looks frumpy and overstyled in this 60’s inspired beehive with plaited hairband and heavy fringe. When wearing your hair up stick to one look rather than combining two or three.

DO
Nicole Richie

This relaxed take on red carpet hair uses the season’s hottest styling tip to full effect – plaits! Keep them casual and not too tight for simple style.

DON’T
Natasha Beddingfield

The plaits in Natasha’s frightful barnet just add to the feeling that she’ll never be able to run a comb through it again! Knot a good look.

DO
Hayden Panettiere

Gathering her golden locks into a loose bun at the base of her skull makes Hayden look dressed up but not uptight. Leaving the fringe loose stops the bun from looking too severe.

DON’T
Britney Spears

Putting all her hair into a top-of-the-head bun means Britney has a great chance of winning the annual Hollywood ‘celebs who look like a pineapple’ competition. Scruffy and unflattering.

The May issue of Sugar goes off sale on the 29th April
