The haircut: "The is an above-the-shoulder, long, layered haircut, and the two haircuts are shaped the same way. The layers on the top are long with the sides and back tapered, and a little texturizing on the ends adds movement," said Contrastano. "The difference is in the styling. Marilyn Monroe has a style 'done' with rollers, which gives a more rounded shape and a style that was appropriate for that time. Katherine Heigl has more of a natural movement done with a blow dry and hands, a style done that is appropriate for our time."
Who it works for: "This haircut shape can be worn by most people. Straight, wavy, or curly textures along with many face shapes," said Contrastano.
Styling pro tip: Apply a small amount of blow-dry cream, such as IGK Car Service Blow Out Balm ($29), to damp hair. Blow-dry sections at a time using a small round brush, such as Drybar Half Pint Small Round Brush ($36). Once dry, use a tiny amount of texturizing cream on the ends to create movement. Try RahuaFreestyle Texturizer ($34).
