Hairstyles That Make You Look 10 Years Younger or Older

KATE WINSLET

OLDER: Elegant, yes�but we can almost smell the Aqua Net.



KATE WINSLET
YOUNGER: Pinned up, but not prim�this look has got swing.


SHERYL CROW
OLDER: Limp and lifeless hair is like announcing, "I've given up."



SHERYL CROW
YOUNGER: Big, bouncy waves turn back the clock


LEIGHTON MEESTER
OLDER: Perfect corkscrew spirals have not been in style since 1986�right around when Meester was born.



LEIGHTON MEESTER
YOUNGER: Long, tousled layers are more modern�and less matronly



PEN�LOPE CRUZ
OLDER: These blocky bangs with a big bun aren't sultry�they're schoolmarm-y.



PEN�LOPE CRUZ
YOUNGER: Side-swept bangs instantly soften her whole look


SARAH JESSICA PARKER
OLDER: Yanked-back hair is severe on anyone who isn't a 13-year-old ballerina. (Maybe even them.)



SARAH JESSICA PARKER
YOUNGER: A little volume (not too much) at the crown is a spritz from the fountain of youth.


BEYONC�
OLDER: There's something too stiff and out of proportion here�we keep thinking Big Love.


BEYONC�
YOUNGER: She's young and fresh with a deep side part and clean-cut ends.


SCARLETT JOHANSSON
OLDER: Hair that's too dark and heavy for your skin tone is only OK for vampires (they never age).


SCARLETT JOHANSSON
YOUNGER: A lighter shade of brown is less austere and more flattering


KATE MOSS
OLDER: Bleached out is as bad as too dark�the harsh way it lights the face piles on years.



KATE MOSS
YOUNGER: A warm, flattering blonde shade brings her face back in line with the date on her passport.



KATIE HOLMES
OLDER: As adorable as her daughter is, this hair you expect to see on someone in mom jeans.


KATIE HOLMES
YOUNGER: She's both more sophisticated and younger-looking with a cute, layered bob.


GWYNETH PALTROW
OLDER: Retro is always risky because it reminds us of things that are...old. And this is very Veronica Lake.


GWYNETH PALTROW
YOUNGER: Sometimes all it takes to update to a younger look is a quick snip or flip, like the center part here.
