One way to know what’s hot and what’s not when it comes to currently fashionable hairstyles, you simply will have to look at Hollywood celebrities. In the previous years curled, wavy hair was the fad. Now the trend is slowly reverting to hairstyles sporting sleek, straight hair.

There are a number of famous Hollywood stars that now maintain beautiful straight hair. This isn’t surprising since the current fashion is saying that less is more; the simpler is your look, the better. Curls and waves are gorgeous of course, but straight hair gives a more youthful look. This is perhaps why more and more celebrities are taking out their hairstraighteners once again.

Among the Hollywood celebrities with straight hair is Kate Hudson. A very bubbly and pleasant actress who recently starred opposite Anne Hathaway in “Bride Wars”, Kate has naturally straight blond hair which complements her congenial, girl-next-door image. In some of her movies she wore her hair curly but now shes back to having long straight hair. To have a bit of novelty Kate opted for bangs.

Famous icons from the music industry have made a trend with straight hair as well. Foremost at the moment is Lady Gaga. She sang the immensely famous party starters “Pokerface”, “Let’s Dance”, “Paparazzi”,and many more. She is undoubtedly a standout with her rather eccentric fashion taste and music videos. Lady Gaga’s hairstyles are kind of odd, but in a cool, fashionably way. Even though she piles up her long platinum hair with large accents and other styles, her normal hairstyle is kept long and straight with bangs.

A fellow pop icon with trademark straight hair is Rihannna. In her video “Umbrella” her short hair which is cut longer in front created quite a stir among the public, particularly hair stylists. Her short bob became very popular and in constant demand by women of all ages in beauty salons. She now wears her hair even shorter, but still keeps it straight and spiky.

One of the benefits of having straight hair is that you can play with it to have a young, playful hairstyle, and you can also work it to look formal and glamorously sophisticated. Megan Fox for example looked very sexy and elegant in the 2008 MTV Movie Awards. She swept up her hair and combed it with gel all the way back, showing off her great bone structure. In a similar yet milder version(sans the gel), Amy Adams did the same thing during the premiere of her movie “Julie & Julia”. Anne Hathaway look both young and classy during the 4th Annual Critics’ Choice Awards with her neatly styled shoulder-length straight hair.

What’s important to remember if you want to get a formal and sophisticated look with straight hair is that besides wearing the right clothes, you have to be poised and carry yourself well. Perhaps the perfect example of this is Catherine Zeta-Jones. She has very beautiful straight hair and when she lets it down, she simply looks lovely. With her poise and natural beauty, Catherine Zeta-Jones is the epitome of elegance.

Having straight hair is a good starting point for anyone who want’s to get a Hollywood look. before going for anything extravagant with your looks, go easy first and keep it simple with straight hair.
