JULIANNE MOORE SLEEK, SOFT OR STYLISH – TAKE YOUR PICK!
Modern wave
Just the right amount of contemporary bend in hair, coupled with softly tousled volume and texture, is the recipe for success in Who’s the Boss? actress Judith’s modern, wavy bob. Prep hair with a product that adds bulk at the roots and creates a little undone-looking texture through the lengths. To create the kink, divide hair into sections and, from the top of the ear down, wrap each section around a heated wand.
TRY: The unusual oval shape of the (1) ghd Curve Classic Wave Wand, $270, is key to getting the right bend. A finishing spray such as

Deliciously dishevelled
Without styling products to add a little grit, Dame Judi’s fabulous pixie cut would run the risk of looking flat and uninteresting. But the grand dame ensures her face-framing ‘do has a thoroughly modern edge with a little intentional dishevelling. To achieve this, you’ll need a texturising product such as a paste or a cream. Rub a small amount into your fingertips and pinch pieces of hair to create definition.

Straight & shiny
Some women are born with naturally sleek hair but most of us, including Julianne, have to put a bit of elbow grease into achieving poker-straight strands. That means blow-drying a smoothing product into the hair with a round brush, followed by a shine-enhancing serum or spray that doubles as a heat protector. Complete the look by smoothing hair over with a straightening iron, section by section. TRY: Silk protein in (1) Goldwell Kerasilk Smoothing Sleek Spray, $39.50, leaves straightened hair feeling light and silky. Enhance shine with the Keratininfused plates in the (2) Remington
