Famous People with Long Hair and Famous Looks - Celebrity Hair
In the early nineties, a relatively unknown actress created a huge
stir when she hit the scene with a much updated version of the long
shag. Jennifer Aniston’s hairstyle became known as the “Rachel”, named
after the character she played in Friends. The Rachel employed lots of
layers to the long shag to create body and bounce. The tapered cut on
the ends of the hair added spunk and interest not seen before. The bangs
were then side swept to complete this sexy look. Since then everyone has
been hot on the trail of Anniston’s changing looks. She never strays too
far from her long locks, whether it’s a soft wave with soft light
coloring or dramatic curls in bold and funky browns. Layers work for
Jennifer and has stayed constant in her evolving look. Definition at the
crown is also a mainstay for the Jen while bangs continue to be swept
softly, textured in an updated version of what the stylists refer to as
the “sassy look”. Watching Jennifer and obtaining the style unique to
yourself is easy to do. Take your favorite picture of the star to your

At 5’7, Angelina Jolie has learned to add height to her stature with
the classic updo of her beautiful dark locks. Her color tends to stay
within the chocolate family with sultry highlights throughout. On casual
days, Angelina’s hair is kept at a uniform length with perhaps a bit of
chipping here and there. A middle part defines this classic do and then
allows the hair to fall naturally into large luminous curls. This cut
lends itself well to the variety of updo’s Angelina is seen sporting on
nights of glamour and fame. To get Angelina’s cut, start with an off the
shoulder length bobbed style, cut with tapered ends and layered crown.

reason not to create your own!
Another dark haired beauty who has pulled off a variety of fabulous
long locks is Alicia Keys. Alicia’s signature look of ringlets is easy
to maintain. Starting with a spiral permanent then becoming proficient
with a small barrel curling iron is essential. Alicia’s look is full of
texture and height that has been designed by soft layers throughout the
hair to create the bounce this looks demands. Alicia is also a fan of
the more “jagged look”. Long locks are cut a bit jagged with angled cuts
combined to add volume and define the wave of a past the shoulder look.
Bringing more attention to her face is the classic side sweep of the
bang. This style is very much a growing out cut for Keys. Healthy long
hair is achieved high maintenance care. A growing out cut allows the
hair to renew itself and gain maximum exposure to its own supply of
vitamins and minerals. So, do not hesitate to take an inch off the
length every so often. The rewards are hair kept happier and healthier.
Alicia knows this secret, as you see her long wavy big curls shining
with a light as no other. The bounce is created by layering, then
parting down the middle. Parting the bangs in the middle gives a retro
look as the bangs are enfolded into the side of the hair and becomes a
part of the tight curls gathered there. All in all, this is a very grown
up but sexy and sophisticated look for the song bird. At 5’8, this
gorgeous songstress can gain an inch or two in height when desirable.

of your personal look. All it takes is a clear picture and a great
hairstylist to work the magic you desire. Combined with a bit of daring
and self-confidence, you can look just as beautiful and stylish as any
