Alternative hairstyles are a great way to feel a little more daring and creative. An alternative long hairstyle is very versatile and the sky is pretty much the limit with what you can achieve. Talk to your hairstylist first though...!

Christina Aguilera
Christina Aguilera made an in-store appearance to promote her Back to Basics: Live and Down Under DVD. Her locks were blow-dried outwards (with a bit of flair) to show-off sliced layers through the back and sides. Christina demonstrates how this style is best suited for those with longer, narrower face shapes. Sure, it's a more relaxed style, but maybe the event called for just a little more effort.

Amy wore this out-there vintage style and made quite an impression. Her hair was styled extra high around her crown to help create a beehive-like look and pieces of hair were left to fall around her face to soften her defined hairdo. The round shape of the hairstyle also helps to even out the look of Amy's square face shape.
