Julia Stiles

Julia Stiles with complex wedding updo that's perfect for prom

   Here's an elaborate celebrity updo. If you had seen the back of the girl's head in the above picture, and just her hair, you might well have thought she was a bride. Because it looks like so many bridal updo hairstyles: high, tight, complex, and elegant.

   But it's the formal hairstyle of Julia Stiles at a movie premiere. And doesn't she look posh?

   The very tight sections of this good "well-organized" evening updo are balanced by several loose partially blonde strands that are slightly "chaotic." Several of them stick out at various angles--up, across, down--all over the place.

   Like many wedding hairstyles, Julia's fancy design would suit many senior prom girls.

   When you test it out before prom, play with the styling at the front to see how far forward and down you'd like your hair to be set.

   This style had her hair far enough forward to graze her eyebrows; that helps make it look softer overall, and more romantic--like many of the best half-up hair styles.
