Judging by the Golden Globes and the Grammys, 2010 is going to be a huge year for the Hair Updo. With hairstylists to the stars even creating faux bobs for their celebrity clients (like Jessica Simpson, Eva Longoria, and Carrie Underwood), you know that the trend to literally take your hair up a notch is a hot one! It seems everyone wants their hair up off their necks with prettified 'dos, from the simplest bobs and chignons to intricate braided, waved and curled hair updos. Hair Jewelry is a big hit for 2010 too so remember, after you've bought that gorgeous clutch and shoes, that your hair needs accessorizing too!

For a 2010 wedding, prom, formal, or even just a night on the town with your favourite guy or your gaggle of girlies, here are some hot celebrity trends that are definitely worth a try:

The Side Updo: It seems that crooked is the way to go and this is definitely a plus for us girls trying the looks at home - it means less worrying about the evenness of our updo, and a side updo is so much easier to see in the mirror! So take your favourite updo, and set it off kilter for a new and improved modern look. If you are searching for ideas, try a simple low set side bun, which you can create easily by securing your hair in a side pony at the nape of your neck and twirling into a bun. Add oomph with a ponytail hair extension or glam it up with a jeweled hair comb or sparkly hair pins.

The Braided Updo: The Olsen's, Jessica Alba, and Lauren Conrad are all fans of this updo with a bohemian twist. Any look you choose, whether it a braided half updo with just a crown of braids like this one, or a full red carpet bun wrapped in a beautiful braid you will be sure to have on-trend tresses that will definitely wow a crowd!

The Undone Updo: The biggest trend of all, and can you believe the easiest!! Gwyneth Paltrow, Reese Witherspoon, Ashley Olsen and more are all keeping it cool with perfectly undone updos where messy is the motto. Throw up your hair in a loose pony, curl up the ends and pin in place, spritz some hairspray and you're good to go!!
