Britney Spears is the princess of pop and when it comes to her iconic outfits and looks, she always has a great hairstyle to match. This is a more simple hairstyle. However, it is very effective. Her hair has been parted down the middle to ensure that both sides of her face and neck area have been framed equally, which is nice. It is a very open hairstyle so people are going to be able to see your makeup application well which is an added bonus. Keep in mind that even though in this picture, her curls have turned into waves, in order to get that at the end of the day, you need to make sure that you curl your hair tightly in the morning to ensure that you still have waves at the end of the day, as curls tend to drop. She has finished off her look with gorgeous natural-looking highlights, which takes this look to the next level.

You are going to need to color your hair once every 6 weeks or so to ensure that the color stays vibrant. You will need to cut your hair once every 4 weeks or so to ensure that the ends of your hair stay healthy and that the color sticks better to your hair. Add a bit of hairspray and your hair is ready for its closeup!

Makeup-wise, you want to keep your makeup natural. Do a gorgeous smokey eye with your golds and browns. To take your eyes to another level, you can add natural-looking false lashes to make your eyes pop more. Add your highlighter and contouring on your neck and face area to help create the perfect oval face shape. Finish off your look with a pastel or nude-colored lip.

Voluminous waves are dressed throughout these blonde locks to give the over-all style subtle movement and bounce. This casual style is easy to re-create at home with the right tools and needs a little product to tame fly-away hair. Regular trims are needed to prevent split ends.

Britney Spears looks lovely here in a sexy, striking, curly hairstyle. Having an oblong face shape and high straight hairline, Britney's face looks best in ‘dos with a grown out fringe and longer layers around the face. This simple layered cut creates a nice frame around her cheekbones and allows her hair’s natural texture to do its thing, adding body and bounce all over. The longer layers soften up her jaw line area and gives her tresses some movement. A center part finishes this ‘do off nicely and works well with her high forehead, although a side-swept fringe would be ideal for her.

Britney has a tanned complexion with golden undertones and dark brown eyes. This makes her suited to hair colors that have a yellow or gold base to them, like the light butter blonde seen here. This bright blonde shade is ideal for Britney's complexion and it brings out the intensity of her eye color. It also completes her hair's sexy look and feel and suits Britney's trademark showgirl image.

Long and luscious is the main idea for this hairstyle. These highlighted locks are blow-dried straight to achieve a sexy yet simple look and feel. The layers on top are smoothed down to frame the face and completes the overall look magnificently.

Britney Spears is back and rocking her signature look with a sleek straight ‘do that compliments her square face shape nicely. The messy center part breaks up the excess width in her face and the layers around her jaw helps to break up any heaviness and add movement. Brit's tresses look their best in longer ‘dos like the one seen here, and when worn straight, her locks have an ultra healthy and glossy finish. Her hair is helped with extensions here that add extra length and thickness all over.

Britney’s color is also looking fabulous and works well with her tanned complexion and dark eyes. Having a medium complexion with warm golden undertones, she looks best in brown or blonde hair that highlights her eyes and flatters her skin tone. Here she has gone for a sunny buttery blonde that gives her skin a sun-kissed glow while making her dark eyes pop.

It's hard to imagine that Britney Spears once sported a shaved head and had a very public breakdown, but it seems that slowly but surely, the princess of pop is getting back to her old self. She's toned down her antics and is generally leading a quieter life now, which we assume is most welcomed after the years of media madness that surrounded her. In any case, Britney's look is still all about being a blonde, which suits her just fine.

Britney Spears let out her golden locks on the night of the 2011 MTV Awards showing off her layers cut through the mid-lengths to ends to lighten the length for a soft and simple finish. This casual hairstyle is great for those with fine to medium hair and will need regular trims every 4-6 weeks to prevent split ends. Britney's hair is worn long, past the chest in a light buttery blonde color. Britney has a warm undertone to her skin and can pull this California girl color off effortlessly. Warning- if you want to copy Britney's hair color but have a pink undertone to your skin- don't. It will only increase your pinkiness and generally look brassy and unflattering- opt for a beige champagne blonde instead.

Her haircut has been layered nicely, with the shortest hair layers starting at her jaw line going down towards the ends. Britney has an angular jaw line and thick neck, but her long layers and loose waves soften up any hard lines. If you have similar features to Britney, or a rectangular or square face shape, this hairstyle will work wonders for you.

For this look, Britney let down her locks to show off her luscious, shoulder draping length. To create this style, long layers were cut throughout her ends, which also gave the edges of her hair a weightless finish. Britney was at the top of her game, touring the world and making millions. Britney's hair quickly went from mousy brown to blonde babe, as seen here. Her hair is a buttery yellow blonde which looks anything but natural…but hey, she could pull it off so why not? This extremely warm blonde made her dark eyes the main focus of her look, although they had to compare with those belly-baring outfits too! Overall, Britney looks like a typical teenager with long blonde carefree hair.
