Cheryl Cole
She has gone from brunette and bouffant to blonde and sassy but whatever Cheryl Cole does with it, the nation’s women love her hair. The 28-year-old has been voted Britain’s hair icon for 2011 with thousands envious of her thick, full locks.
Jessie J
Best known for her poker straight, ink black bob with a perfect fringe slashed above the eyes , Jessie J brought precision cutting to the forefront of fashion this year with her must-have head-hugging cut in a pristine shade of purest black. This year also saw Jessie experiment with wigs and extensions, showing off a violet bob and silver dip-dye lengths as well as glamorous waves and curls.
Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge
The latest addition to the Royal Family has fast become a firm favourite with the press and public alike thanks to her chic outfits and fabulously blow-dried bouffant.
Making glossy, gorgeous, natural-looking luxury a trend in itself.
Rihanna
A constant style chameleon, Rihanna’s styles this year have ranged from bright red corkscrew curls to a demure blonde for her photoshoot for Vogue magazine
Katy Perry
She was announced as the face (and hair) of ghd in April 2011 and Katy Perry continued to keep everyone talking about her barnet throughout the year with colour changes a-go-go. When Katy Perry dyed her hair pink, it didn’t come as that much of a shock to fans as she has been known to change the colour of her locks quite often. From black and pink to blonde and blue, this year has seen Katy give her pin-up girl style a comic-book colourful twist.
Alexa Chung
Alexa always manages to style her pared-down bob in different ways to keep it looking fresh and new. Straight locks suit the cut of the bob giving a more boyish charm, while gentle waves help soften the style making it a more feminine and vintage look. Alexa has become known as Queen Bee of balyage.
”I just like her tossed off hair. It’s chopped, she lets her natural texture come out, she doesn’t look tortured with blow dryers or straightening irons or anything. She is sexy, obviously very sexy, but in a fresh and kind of tomboy-ish way.”
Lady Gaga
The queen of kook tamed things down a bit in 2011, switching her OTT multi-coloured wigs for high-octane glamour – albeit with a trademark Gaga twist.
Mint green bouffants, silver chignons and pastel pink ponytails all ensured the first lady of pop stayed firmly in the spotlight this year.

Celebrity Hair Short Bobs
Take your cue from these trendsetting stars, and start working your short bob look. Pick your inspiration using our RMUK hairstyles guide to find styles that match your perfect look.
Eva Longoria has created this cute curvy bob with a side parting and a gentle flick in the ends, this is a very flattering cut.
Hayden Panettiere has done away with her long locks and opted for a sleek face-framing bob that really sets off her eyes.
Emma Bunton’s short new length is fittingly cute. Her heart shaped face carries this style off perfectly and she keeps the look soft with a little natural wave and an uneven side parting.
Alexa Chung wears her grown out fringe swooshed to one side while her hair was parted far to the right for this evening look.
Reese Witherspoon’s chin length bob is the perfect frame for her heart shaped face. Altering the parting is a great way to freshen up your look whatever your hair length, so if you’ve gone for a bob play with side, centre and zig zag partings.
Sophie Ellis Bextor wears her bob with a soft fringe. Her fringe highlights her beautiful eyes while the length of her hair cut shows off her bone structure to its best advantage.
Charlize Theron’s hair has a natural wave to it so special attention has been paid to the shape of her cut to give her this bobbed style. Her hair has been subtly layered to give her a soft shape at the ends.
Shiny hair is key to get the bobbed look, even if you wear it wavy rather than straight, as seen here on Hilary Swank.
Kylie Minogue,s bob is very soft and very flattering and given bounce and volume with the help of a subtle curl. A quick way to alter the look of a bob is to play with the fringe.
Katie Holmes bob is truly her own. With a short, blunt fringe framing her face and a slightly graduated Twenties-style Louise Brooks cut, this is a style which shows off Katie’s eyes and frames her face.
