THE TREND: Short hair and high buns. WHO LOVES IT: Jacqueline Bush, celebrity stylist, Exclusive Artists Management You’ve seen these looks on: Ashlee Simpson, Emma Watson and Janet Jackson (short hair) and Jessica Alba and Sienna Miller (high bun) “I love Emma’s adorable pixie, Janet’s new short hair and Ashlee’s fresh ‘do,” says Jacqueline. “And the high bun is a great styling option for women with long hair.” Tips for recreating: The best short cuts are done with a razored texture, and each of these short cuts have round layering. Don’t forget to texturize heavily. “That makes the difference between fresh and modern and ‘soccer mom,’” says Jacqueline. The high bun works best on long hair. First, prep wet strands with René Furterer Vegetal Sculpting Gel then blow dry for volume and bounce. Create a center part then tease the hair at the crown. Leaving a few pieces out around the face, brush hair up into a high ponytail. “It’s okay if the ponytail is not perfect,” she notes. “A slightly undone finish is what makes the look more modern.” The trick to the look is to pin a hair extension “doughnut” at the base of the pony then wrap the pony around the doughnut and pin for added volume and shape. Finish with a small bit of shine pomade and holding spray.

Whatever you have going on this fall, here's a lazy-but-cute hair idea for ya. Perfect for a little apple picking day or a night on the town with the ladies.

Get the Look:

Wrap sections of hair around a 1.5" or 2" curling iron. Some pieces will bend outward and inward a little wonkily - which is great because it gives this style a quirky home-done look.

The trick to keeping these waves looking sexy but laid-back is to start curling the hair around eyebrow-level, or about 1/3 of the way down the hair, leaving your roots smooth. This gives a kind of slept-on effect and prevents you from going too poufy or fake-wavy. Try not to use the clamp on the curling iron. Just grab sections and wrap them around the iron and hold the hair there for a few seconds, being extra careful not to burn your fingertips.

When men begin to see their thick mane of hair thin down, it can be a traumatic experience. A survey of more than 500 participants revealed that 24% equated losing their hair to losing a limb.

As hair changes, styling methods must also adapt. Here are some suggestions to add depth to a man's thinning hair:

• Blow dry hair. This will make hair look fuller and less sparse. You'll see an immediate change in the hair’s appearance. Even five minutes of hot air will make a difference.

• Stay far, far away from products that produce sheen. Ditch waxes and silicone based styling aids. Go with matte products.

For women, it’s a different story.

• Go for one length hair cuts instead of layered looks. This will make hair appear more dense.

• Get some highlights and lowlights in order to provide depth and contrast.
