Deep Side Part Hair Trend

by Jaime Richards 4

Spotted on stars such as Freida Pinto, Keri Hilson, and Anna Chlumsky, the deep sweep varies from extreme parting (like Freida's), to pulled almost all the way over to the side (à la Keri), to completely pinned back to the other side (on Anna). Not only does the retro-inspired style have panache, but it provides a great way to disguise (or enhance) windblown hair. The look has also appeared on the heads of celebrities such as Kate Bosworth, who donned the quasi-updo at the L!fe Happens premiere and Carrie Underwood, who made a soft, feminine statement with her ACM Awards coiffure. It's sweeping the nation, so to speak.
