French Twist

Actress Nicole Richie shows off her neck-hugging gown with a loose French twist. The bangs plunge simply down to the brow, making her eyes pop. This style may not have much going on -- it's pretty basic -- but the allure is unmistakable. To get Richie's twist, sweep your hair back into a hand-held ponytail. Twist the ponytail until you create a twist. Pin it in place and fluff up your bangs.
