Read ahead to learn more about symmetric hairstyles:

1. Long, Side Parted Hair

When it comes to long, straight hair, no one does it better than Machiko Ono. Her side-parted hair gives the look an easy, effortless appeal and the texture adds a nice dimension to it. To emulate Machiko Ono’s 66th Annual Cannes Film Festival style, begin drying your hair naturally or blow dry with a brush. Once done, straighten your hair with a flat iron and follow it by misting a texturizing spray.

2. Long Bob With Blunt Bangs

Cool? Yes. Chic? Certainly. Hot without trying? That too. Supermodel Tyra Banks’ long bob with bangs is pretty much a perfect hairstyle—for anyone, at any age. Blunt and sleek with no layers, the super-easy hairstyle elongates your face and makes you look more striking.

Quick Tip

Adding blunt bangs to any hairstyle will give you an instant makeover without having to cut your hair. Make sure it’s well-maintained to keep your hairstyle looking fresh and on point always.

3. Bob With Side-Swept Bangs

The model’s bob with side-swept bangs is universally flattering to any face shape. The insanely straight and glossy hairstyle is perfect for a night out, a black-tie event, or a date night. Just achieve the look with a hair straightener and a shine serum like John Frieda Frizz-Ease 100% Shine Glossing Mist.

4. Wavy Bob

What’s cool about Jessica Szohr’s hairstyle is its natural texture, a bit of disheveled bob, and those subtle layers – which, by the way, make it an effortless look. Take inspiration from Jess and keep the look well-textured with regular trims, an anti-frizz serum, and a volumizing mousse.

Pro Tip

The wavy bob is a versatile hairstyle! You can make it look shorter by enhancing the wave definition. However, avoid adding waves right from the root. Start midway to make them look more natural.

5. Pulled Back Hairdo

Actress Rita Ora looks edgy and trendy with her white blonde hair pulled back into a symmetric bob. The textured hairdo allows you to clearly see her hair color and gorgeous facial features. So good you just want to recreate it ASAP.

If you want to change your hairstyle, consult a hairstylist and always have a buffer of weeks or months. Alicia Igess, a hairstylist, cautions, “There are so many hairstyles to try. Do it when you don’t have anything to do. Don’t try anything new when you are traveling or have a big event.” This helps reduce the risk of ruining your look, allow the haircut to settle, and you will have enough time for corrections.

6. Sleek Ponytail

While attending the Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Awards, Nina Dobrev made sure her sleek ponytail reached new heights. Just take a look at the actress and her leather wrapped around her hair, plus the elegant hairstyle that she has paired with her cutout dress – we love it. The actress’ tight ponytail frames her round face while the backcombed hair at the crown gives her a fresh and elegant feel.

7. Wavy Bob With Side-Swept Bangs

Selena Gomez’s wavy bob with side-swept bangs is both timeless and chic. We love the subtle curls at the bottom of her hair, as well as the glossy texture. To recreate this easy-to-execute hairstyle, make use of volumizing mousse, curling tong, and shine serum.

8. Side Parted Long Bob

Ashley Greene’s short lock is perfect for a stunning side-parted lob. We love the two-toned hair color, and her slick, side-swept hair allows her to elongate her face brilliantly. Just apply a straightening gel on wet hair and blow-dry with a round paddle brush. Finish by flat ironing your hair and set it with shine serum.

9. Half Updo

For the California premiere of Monster House, Spencer Locke opted for a casual half up-do. Perfect for your date night, to create this flirty hairdo use hair spray and a blow-dryer to straighten your hair. Once done, tease your hair at the crown and mist it with a lightweight hair spray. Finish the look by securing your hair with a neutral-colored pin.

10. Long, Poker Straight Hair

At the 64th Annual Golden Globe Awards, Beyonce looked divine with her long, poker-straight hair. To duplicate the look, section your hair in the middle and blow-dry your hair straight. Next, apply a styling lotion to smooth your hair out. Once done, spritz a shine spray on your hair and straighten it with a flat iron.

11. Long Pixie With Side-Swept Bangs

Hilary Swank’s long pixie cut at the VH1/ Vogue Fashion Awards in 2001 is an iconic and stylish choice for a bold yet sophisticated look. The long pixie is easily manageable and can be effortlessly adapted to suit different occasions and personal preferences. It is a stylish and low-maintenance hairstyle for everyone.

12. Classic Bob

Rihanna’s classic bob continues to influence individuals worldwide. This sleek and polished hairstyle is characterized by sharp lines and precision, adding a touch of glamor to her overall look. This iconic haircut remains a symbol of timeless elegance and a perfect choice for a chic and versatile hairstyle.
