Bella Quiz: Vintage Hairdo or Old School Dance Craze?

Trend Alert: Retro Curls
Mining past decades for inspiration, Hollywood's hottest hairstylists gave their celebrity clients beautiful curls for the Golden Globe Awards. The look isn't about literally mimicking the look of the '40s and '50s, though. Instead, these stars borrow from past silver-screen beauties while letting their hair have more movement.
