Marilyn Monroe’s beautiful blonde curls and Audrey Hepburn’s classic chignon are still considered iconic hairstyles; even decades after these beautiful women graced the screen.

Despite Hollywood being no stranger to experimenting and tangoing with different looks, it goes without saying that some trends set by our favorite celebrities will stay evergreen.

Although we’re graced with new hair trends every year, the Kardashians aren’t the ones to be kept up with this year. It’s the beautiful women of the Golden Era of Hollywood!

Let’s take a look at some of the most iconic looks from that era and which ones you should try:

Rita Hayworth’s Blonde Locks

The blonde beauty’s hairstyle is still iconic today. Known for her beautiful platinum hair, Rita Hayworth has inspired several celebrities today—most noticeably Blake Lively.

The dramatic curls in the front add volume to the hair, creating a graceful look. This look is perfect for evenings out. You can even try this look when attending a black tie event. It’s simply stunning!

The Audrey Hepburn Updo

Yes, this iconic look is on the list and without it, this list wouldn’t be complete! Audrey Hepburn’s Breakfast at Tiffany’s hairstyle has become a fashion icon. Even decades after the release of the series, Audrey Hepburn has inspired several celebrities to try this iconic look.

Katy Perry is one of the celebrities who recently tried this look. Not only will it give you a nice, elegant touch, it’ll also highlight your features without subtracting from them!
