Welcome to the oldest exclusively formal
hairstyles website. This site has served women
with elegant ideas for glamorous styling of their
hair on special occasions for about six years.
Elegant Hairstyles, following a full makeover in April 2008, now has nine
related main sections: 1) wedding hairstyles; 2) prom
hairstyles; 3) formal hairstyles; 4) Asian and Black hairstyles; 5) red carpet hairstyles; 6) party
hairstyles; 7) celebrity updos; 8) half-up designs; and, 9) down styles.
You can see all these categories in the navigation menu on
the left. Altogether there are about 250
glamorous hair pictures; you're welcome to view
any or all of them. You can easily move from picture to picture in each directory, and then on to the next celebrity hairstyle directory if necessary. All the pics are at the top of the page to enable faster viewing.
Except for the wedding hairstyles, all the hairstyles images on this site are celebrity hairstyles. The photos are the kind you see in weekly celeb magazines and monthly mags like InStyle magazine. They are pics of the stars all dressed up at the big Hollywood events, such as movie premieres, award shows, galas, balls and other posh formal events.
Wedding Hairstyles
The recently updated wedding section has 100
pictures of excellent wedding hairstyles. Many of
these are modern brides with classic updos as
well as wedding tiaras. You'd be hard-pressed to
find a site with a higher number of bridal
hairstyles and higher quality photos.
Each photo appears first as a small thumbnail,
so you can instantly scan the entire index for
styles you like. Click the
thumbnails to see gorgeous wedding hair photos of
the exact same full size as the glamorous bride
above.
Many photos are from the front; many are the
back views; and some show the side profiles.
Prom Hairstyles
In the section specifically for girls going to
prom, you will find 30 prom hairstyles courtesy
of young ladies in Hollywood. You will see the
best red carpet hairstyles.
These include prom updos, as well as formal
hairstyles for girls with short, medium, and long
hair. It is all organized neatly and simply.
The new pictures include 2008 formal
hairstyles and other modern hairdos that are
perfect for prom.
Elegant Hairstyles.com offers an elegant
presentation of exceptional photos showing formal
excellence for women who will dress up for a
special night out.
Formal Hairstyles
A new photo gallery online just in time for
the busy 2008 prom season offers several formal
hairstyles pictures. If you are going to a ball,
like Ivanka and Beyonce did in the above picture,
or some such fancy evening event, here you could
find the perfect formal hairstyle.
Featured celebs with memorable gowns and great
formal hair styles include: Alexa Havins; Amanda
Bynes; Farah Fath; Kelly Monaco; and Sela Ward.
Asian and Black Hairstyles
Asian American and African American women sometimes like to be inspired by celebrities who look most like them, and have similar hair texture, so this new gallery has good Asian and
black formal hairstyles pictures from 2007 and 2008 at special events.
Featured stars include: Brenda Song; Julie Chen; Raven Symone; and Angela Bassett. Most of the celebs are black just now. More of the famous Asian ladies will be added as they become available.
Red Carpet Hairstyles
Female celebrities are most inspired to dress up when they will appear on the red carpet. They wear the latest high-fashion designer dresses and, naturally, their hair is also at its formal best, too.
If you'd like to be inspired by the latest celebrity hairstyles for special occasions, you can see a dozen glamorous styles from recent premieres and red carpet appearances.
The gallery is mostly of young women but also has some elegant ladies over 40, including Cindy Crawford; Kelly Preston; and Mariska Hargitay.
Cocktail Party Hairstyles
A new section in April 2008 is elegant party
hairstyles, which includes the latest formal
celebrity hairstyles. The recent hairstyling for
parties ranges from casual but elegant to semi-formal
and very formal. Some parties are the only event
of the night (like a Birthday); whereas others
follow big Hollywood events (such as a Grammys After Party).
This photo series of sexy evening hairstyles
includes two photos of each celebrity for a
richer visual experience. You can review the
ladies' fancy hairstyles and glamorous cocktail
dresses.
Celebrity Updo Hairstyles
What are some cool and sexy ways to put your hair up in a bun? Sixteen new updos are available for you to see in the excellent collection of pretty celebrity updos. Review a great selection of the best updos from your favorite Hollywood ladies and other rising stars who set their hair in classic and creative up styles to look amazing at special events. The new set of top styles features a high updo, a low chignon, a French Twist, and other fancy bun hair designs. Formal up hairstyles are always popular because they are naturally so feminine and elegant.
Down Styles
Easy updos are always going to be popular with girls who style their own hair, because they don't have the luxury of a personal celebrity hairstylist, but so are easy down hairstyles. Over twenty formal down styles pictures are now available for you to see, including the latest down celebrity styles of very popular famous young women such as Heidi Montag and Kristin Cavallari in 2008.
Bridal Star Hairstyles
If you do not find a
hairstyle here that is perfect for your special
occasion, it is highly recommended that you pick
up the latest copy of Bridal Star Hairstyles
magazine.
The Spring and Summer issue of BSH is
excellent. It's on sale until July 21, 2008,
but it can fly off store and news stand shelves
because it is the only magazine of its kind and
only comes out once a year.
Some of the hairstyles in this new issue are
absolutely stunning!
Although the main intended audience is brides,
don't think it is only for brides. There are
celebrity wedding hairstyles in it, but many of
the featured hairstyles of stars are from their
red carpet appearances. So it's a great magazine
to buy for weddings, proms, and such elegant
events. All told, it's 90 pages of supreme
wedding glamour full of the latest and loveliest
wedding hair styles. You will be impressed--guaranteed.
Bridal Beauty Magazine
Modern Bride, the popular wedding
magazine, put out a special issue called Modern
Bride: Beauty and Fitness. Its issue for
Winter 2006 and Spring 2007 had a large section
of 75+ terrific hairstyles some of which were
hairdos of celebrities, but most were brides. It's
not a massive magazine like regular bridal
magazines, but it's still pretty decent at 132
pages. As you would expect, the photography is
excellent.
The magazine may not still put out this beauty
issue each year, but keep your eyes open for it.
If you don't see it, you can still visit its
website at brides.com and see more than 75 modern
wedding hairstyles.
Finally, if you are planning a formal event, and don't need hairstyles pictures today, consider picking up a new book entitled Red Carpet: 20 Years of Fame and Fashion by Frank Trapper. It is a huge book full of nothing but pictures of celebrities in their stunning gowns and posh hairstyles.
It's not quite as thick as a phone book, but it could be the largest collection of printed color photos of Hollywood stars ever published. (It is by a celebrity photographer.) It's an elegant coffee table book with a special red cover that looks similar to a red carpet.
In the unlikely event you don't find any hair style that you like on this site among over 150 of them, you may find something on another hair site advertised at the top of this homepage. There are currently no other links to external sites.
