Which Hollywood Hon Is Wearing a Trendy Bun?
Back in September when Spring 2009 Fashion Week was going down, I mentioned that a bun trend seemed to be surfacing. Fast forward a few months, and I'm not surprised to see lots of buns on different Hollywood hons.
Take Diane Kruger and Nicole Kidman (pictured right), for instance.

How-To: Create A Classic Loopy Bun
The loopy bun is the complete opposite of shaggy, low-maintenance hair. But for those of you who are getting ready for prom or a formal event, this classic hairstyle is an elegant option. The trick is to make it look more modern and less severe.
Trend Alert: Spring's Haute Hair
Last week we saw lots of haute hair and makeup from the catwalks of the 2008 Spring Couture Fashion Shows. While most of the looks were wild and over-the-top, there was one traditional hair theme that seemed to keep popping up. Whether it was styled tight and low at Valentino, in the middle of the head and accessorized at Armani Privè or worn high with some height at the crown at Chanel, the bun is this moment's "it" hair.
Trend Alert: The Sunday Bun
Ah, I love seeing celebrities looking natural and down-to-earth. This is the kind of hairstyle that everybody wears when you can't be bothered to primp, but you've got to get out of the house and get your day started. I like to call this look the Sunday bun, but really it's just a casual, messy updo that requires only a hair elastic or clip and serves the purpose of getting your hair out of the way.
Love It or Hate It? Sarah Jessica Parker's Braided Bun
Is it the summer of braids or what? Sarah Jessica Parker was wearing a plaited bun at the opening of a Valentino fashion exhibition in Rome. I'm not sure that this heavy look is the most flattering choice for her, but I could be in the minority.
Who Looks Better in a Ballet Bun?
Both Mischa Barton and Lindsay Lohan opted for mature ballet-style buns at the Costume Institute Gala in NYC. Although they both look very pretty, I think Mischa pulled off her bun with just a tad more class, since it was smoother and sleeker than LL's messier 'do. Who do you think looked better?

Here are highlights from OnSugar blog Krissy's One Stop Beauty Spot.
Women, especially black women, have the ability to change hairstyles like underwear. I support you ladies no matter what you do — just do it right and take care of your hair. For the most part we all practice the same principles when it comes to proper hair care (co-washing, ACV rinse, trims, deep conditioning, etc.). I'm always willing to help people with hair questions and concerns, or at least point them in the right direction. I know plenty of people in that area.
Where I stand on a lot of hair issues:
- I'm anti kiddie perms and kiddie dreadlocks on children if they're at an age where they can't make that choice for themselves (unless, of course, it's part of your religion).
2009 American Music Awards: Selena Gomez
Adorable Disney-ite Selena Gomez always looks pretty and age-appropriate when she walks the red carpet. Tonight, she went elegant, wearing her curls in this lovely, loose bun and letting tendrils fall free to frame both sides of her face. I love that her eye makeup was extremely simple and that her lip gloss and blush were both almost sheer.
Which Hairstyle Do You Prefer on Diane Kruger?
Diane is just as dynamic when it comes to her hair as she is with the roles she takes. In the past couple months, she's had oodles of offbeat bobby pins, and worn her hair up, down, and in every pretty variation in between. She even started the hot fishtail braid trend back in May.
