Best Hairstyles at the Golden Globes!

From glamorous updos to simple ponytails, hairstyles at the Golden Globes were sleek and on-trend...

"A sweep of pink lipgloss in a honeysuckle shade (the same hue as her Calvin Klein dress) and her long Latisse lashes were the key elements in the Temple Grandin winner's makeup look. Her hair was simply elegant as well, pulled back in a chignon





 "Dianna's look was all about a bold, dark lip to offset her gorgeous white dress!" said Chanel makeup artist Angela Levin. It worked perfectly, as did her hair, pinned back in a 1940s style.

Mila Kunis wowed us with lush lashes and glowing skin — celebrity makeup artist for Lancôme, Tracey Levy, was inspired by Audrey Hepburn. The Black Swan actress's hairstyle was equally fabulous: a perfectly teased French twist, just like co-star Natalie Portman.

Winter Hair Colors

Listed below are general rules for winter hair colors:

1. When in doubt go darker. Although platinum can be worn all year long, consider toning it down or only keeping the lightest strands around your face.
2. Stay within two to four shades of your natural hair color. If your hair color is dark brown or black, change it up with warmed lowlights such as rich caramels, milk chocolates or elegant merlots. Fire engine red is more of a Summer color. For Winter opt for a darker auburn or lowlights in the maroon or burgundy families.
3. If you really don’t want to go darker, opt for carefully placed lowlights that will give the darker illusion you went darker without a major overall change. This is also in keeping with a gradual color evolution.
4. If going darker is the best for your current eye and skin tones but you still want some lightness, weave in softer accent colors around your face.
5. Opt for natural colors whenever possible.
6. Remember to select colors that you can afford to maintain.
