Top 5 red carpet hair trends to try

There’s nothing schoolgirl about these voluminous ponies. Soften the look with a few wisps of hair around the face like Barbara Palvin.

Go for all-over volume with height at the front á la Sophie Turner and textured kinks through the lengths.

Try a lower ponytail like Saoirse Ronan. Add texture to the hair from root to tips, backcomb at the crown so the style doesn't sit too flat, and fingercomb into a ponytail that sits at ear height.

These parts don’t just dress up your ‘do, they also draw attention to your eyes and cheekbones. Follow Brie Lawson's lead and part your hair at an angle.

Have the start of your part begin in line with the edge of your brow like Rachel McAdams here, and style your 'do forwards (rather than up and over) before twisting the curls so they frame your face. This look is great for short hair as it elongates the face.

Tuck one side behind your ear and let your hair tumble over one shoulder – like Emma Stone – to make it appear thicker and evoke a glamour screen siren feel with Veronika Lake-inspired waves.

Add sparkling personality to any 'do - whether everyday or for a special event - with hair accessories. Make a statement with your bling: Alison Williams went for chaotic chic with mismatched jewelled clips throughout her braided updo.

Hair bling doesn't need to be dainty. Add an edgy vibe with a ponytail clasp like Olivia Wilde. It's the perfect complement to a sleek style and a back-bearing gown.

If classic Hollywood is more your style, you can't go wrong with a hair brooch to clip back your retro curls like Naomi Watts. A must-copy when wearing statement earrings.

Whether your hair is slicked back into an elegant chignon, or styled poker straight from root to tip, keep shine spray on hand to dial up the gloss, plus hairspray to tame pesky fly-aways. Bella Hadid's touch of shine through her tresses complements the sheen on her eyes and lips.

Yes, blondes can do shine spray. Slick your hair back tight into a smooth updo and lightly spritz with shine spray for a gorgeous glossy finish.

There's nothing sexier than healthy looking hair. Take Alessandra Ambrosio for example, she did little more than part her hair in the centre and style it straight. And yet, that beautiful sheen makes it red carpet worthy.

From Lady Gaga’s Marilyn Monroe-inspired locks to Katy Perry’s Barbarella-esque look, these hairstyles are reminiscent of Old Hollywood. The trick? Build volume at the roots and set the ends using hot rollers to create large waves or curls.

Don't be afraid to build serious height like Katy Perry here. Add a curtain fringe to complete the '70s vibe.

Channeling an elegant Old Hollywood vibe, Emma Watson's hairstyle is the perfect pair to a demure neckline. Give your look a modern twist by ditching the diamond necklace for funky earrings.
