10 Hairstyles That Make You Look 10 Years Younger

Sure, night creams and face-lifts can take years off your appearance, but so can wearing the right hairstyle. These ten looks won’t just stop the clock, they’ll turn it back—way back.

Younger: Side-swept bangs and soft, rounded ends are sweet and girly. Try blow-drying hair with a round boar-bristle brush (we love the Spornette G-36XL Porcupine Brush) to get Diaz's swingy, curved ends.

Olivia Wilde

Dark, single-process hair color looks severe against Wilde's fair complexion.

Younger: Face-framing, multidimensional highlights, on the other hand, warm her skin right up. To get the same effect, ask your hairstylist for highlights in one or two shades lighter than your base color. A tousled blowout softens the look even more.

Alice Eve

Previous Slide Alice Eve Next Slide

Older: A retro cut is going to date any look, and this flipped-out bob screams Stepford Wives (the original, not the remake).

Younger: A jagged part and mussed-up angled cut looks much more modern -- but every bit as perfect. Ask your hairstylist for hair that's longer in front than it is in back, with long layers for movement.

Rashida Jones

Previous Slide RASHIDA JONES Next Slide

Older: We've said it before: It's either bangs or Botox. But in this case, Jones's heavy uni-bang is too short and severe to look youthful.

Younger: Now this is more like it. The piecey texture is soft and the length -- bangs should fall between your brows and lashes -- helps us zero in on her gorgeous eyes.

Julie Bowen

Previous Slide Julie Bowen Next Slide

Older: We love a well-placed hair accessory, but Bowen's almost-hidden headband is out of place -- it's trying just a bit too hard to send her back to her schoolgirl days. Plus, extra spritzes of hair spray make strands appear dry and crunchy.

Julie Bowen

Previous Slide Julie Bowen Next Slide

Younger: The less complicated it is, the younger it looks. And sexy, carefree waves are as easy (and touchable) as it gets. For polish, prep damp hair with a smoothing cream (we love L'Oréal Professionnel Texture Expert Smooth Ultime) before blow-drying with a round brush.

Really? Anyone that knows anything about photography can easily see that the lighting on the subjects faces is also much softer and even a warmer tone. The hair helps but come on, it is a WHOLE lot more than the hair cut...

Kelly Osbourne.  She is a very beautiful girl.  I obviously don't know a thing about her, but I have seen her on some shows, and she seems like she would be a very nice person too - seems soft spoken and kind.  When I saw how she dressed back in the day, it was goth and you couldn't see how beautiful she really was...  Go Kelly!
