Angelina Jolie Hairstyle - Haircut
The shape of the face is the most fundamental feature that will determine the most flattering hairstyle. It is not the ears, eyes, or the lips that will help a woman determine the best haircut for her. This means that if a woman has prominent pouting lips, it does not automatically allow her to copy the Angelina Jolie hairstyle. Lips can be factored in later to resolve little details of the hairstyle. But the shape of the lips is not the deal breaker, not even for the Angelina Jolie hairstyle.
Angelina Jolie's unique face shapeMost hair stylists would insist that there are only few basic face shapes, and these are the heart, the diamond, the oblong, the round, the oval, and the square. Unfortunately, in the real world, an individual person's face shape could not be easily categorized.
Most faces are combinations of two or more of these basic shapes. And the shape of Angelina Jolie's face is a great example. Luckily, the Angelina Jolie hairstyle in 2008, as seen in the movies "Wanted" and "Changeling," was able to bring out the best of her unique face shape.
What is Angelina Jolie's face shape? Due to her "strong woman" roles that began in the Tomb Raider movies, it is easy to magnify her strong jaw line and assume that she has a square face. But Angelina Jolie also has the classic features of a high forehead and high cheekbones that make other people believe that she has an oval face shape. This is not exactly correct. The length of the oval face should be 1 ½ times longer than the width measured at the cheekbones. Angelina Jolie's face does not quite meet this criterion. Her face is wider than the normal oval face.
Oval faces can get away with many hairstyles, including angular bobs and blunt bangs. Angelina Jolie could not get away with bangs. This is why no Angelina Jolie hairstyle will include bangs that cover the entire forehead. It would make her face look wider, and the effect would be utterly appalling. There should be no Egyptian princess hairstyles for Angelina Jolie.
Picking the right length and texture for Angelina Jolie's hairstyles
With the ratio of the length and width of her face, Angelina Jolie's face shape is a combination of oval and square. Combined face shapes are tricky to style, but Angelina Jolie's hairstyle manages her face with flying colors. Since the upper part of her face is dominantly oval, all Angelina Jolie's hairstyles ensure that nothing covers the forehead, except for the occasional side-swept bangs. And since the lower part of her face is dominantly square, all Angelina Jolie hairstyles have soft waves. The strictly square face, such as that of Demi Moore, can get away with boyish short cuts. Angelina Jolie's hairstyles should not follow suit. For example, Angelina Jolie tried short hair in 1995 in the movie Hackers. It was not flattering.
The shortest Angelina Jolie hairstyle is the one that she sported in the movie Changeling. The hairstyle, of course, is utterly feminine with its wild abundant curls. The curls, with their free movement, throws soft shadows on her square jaw line. With this in mind, all of Angelina Jolie hairstyles have bodies that tend to curl. But is it always necessary to have curls that can soften the jaw line? One Angelina Jolie hairstyle that does not have curls covering the jaw line was in Tomb Raider. But remember that she has two thick strands of hair falling in front of her left face that diverted attention from her square jaw.
Angelina Jolie's hairstyle compliments face shapes that are combinations of oval and square. The open hairstyles and absence of bangs accentuate the eyes and flaunt the best features of the forehead and cheeks. The curls and the longer hair lengths soften the square jaw line. And since the face belongs to Angelina Jolie, with the famous pouting lips and mysterious cat-like eyes, the effect the hairstyle is that of a confident and sensual woman.

Top Celebrity Hair Styles For 2010
When planning your next trip to your hairstylist for a new "do", celebrity hair styles are helpful sources of inspiration. Celebrities are typically forward-looking of what's latest and trendy. They are trend setters that help you decide on what style to follow. You can always hear others say that they want the hair style similar to this particular celebrity. Even to the simplest style that celebrities have, people always consider the look to be something appealing.
Every celebrity has a different hair style and different methods of sustaining such style. Nowadays, celebrity hair styles seem to be changing too fast, too soon. Just like technology, nothing stays the same for long. This is vital when choosing a hairstyle. You have to have a hairstyle that is "sustainable", in a manner of speaking. Color has also become quite significant in this year's line up of top celebrity hair styles. Come to think of it, colors look like they're geared up for the limits this year.
Here are celebrities who are making a buzz with their 2010 "dos":Victoria Beckham's short haircut is one of the hottest celebrity hair styles this year with her new blonde hair. The front of the hairstyle shows uneven lengths and the right side is longer than the left. This hairstyle gives Victoria a sun-kissed look, and provides an appearance that's very natural.
Hairstyles will continue to be more relaxed and laid back this year. Bobs are so popular that they would probably stick around. Hairstyles like Gossip Girl's Blake Lively are gaining popularity. You might want to try longer bobs which are perfect for those who want a refined look with a little casual feel. You can also discover new hair colour trends this year.Christina Aguillera's mid-length bob is also a hot one. This style features polished finishes that creates a classy look and really harmonize her blonde hair colour. Asymmetrical bobs can also be accomplished by cutting hair on the back and shorter than on the sides. This look is ideal for those who want an unusual style or a look that has a little edge.
Having full blunt bangs, such as Nicole Richie's is gorgeous. Her stunning brown hair colour adds shine to her hair and the bangs are flawlessly used to draw attention to her eyes. This hairstyle is one of the hottest looks for both spring and summer. It is also a perfect look on straight and sleek hair. If you have a long bob hairstyle, you can also add bangs to keep you look fresh. Straight bangs across your forehead will bring a combination of formal and sophisticated look.
Eva Longoria Parker's style may not always be the trend setter or cutting edge quality we're looking for; but her locks can never be criticized for always looking so well-groomed. She may have her waves long and loose or she may be graciously sporting a flawless updo. Whatever she does, her hair never fails to amaze other with its super shiny tresses that everybody covets. Her styles may not always be on trend and cutting edge but Eva Longoria Parker's locks never look anything but well groomed. Whether she's sporting an elegant updo or leaving her waves long and loose, her hair is always super shiny and highly covetable.
Kristin Bell is another celebrity moving towards the curl look for winter and it suits her well. Both the long hair and curls Kristin wore for the Critics' Choice Awards show as well as Kristin's classy updo for the Golden Globes gets nods from me. She would be a hard act to follow looking so pulled together and so feminine all at the same time.
Taking first place, along with all her other wins and recognition this year goes to Sandra Bullock. Whether the beautiful brunette is sporting her simple straight do or throwing in a few curls for her updo, this movie powerhouse always takes first prize in appearance. Sandra's ability to roll with the punches and look great doing it is why she keeps getting those movie offers...and hunky leading men to work with!
The last four women, one of which is Rihanna, certainly have made a choice on their new winter look that they will have to stick with for a while: they are all four short dos. Rihanna added a softer, more muted red color to her hair, a departure from the bright orange-red she sported before. And she added some curls to boot. And it looks great on her, I think. It softens her appearance and brings out her beautiful complexion more.
This straight razored bob was a great choice for Kimberley at the American Idol Top 12 Finalists' Party. Her hair was parted to the side and slight side bangs were added to fall into her lengths. This look is ideal for longer face shapes and larger foreheads as it can help to minimise the appearance of a larger forehead. The razored ends and layers of this style gives the hair a textured look and adds body to the style.
