Lauren Conrad with a side braidSide braids are showing up all over Hollywood. Sienna Miller wore Heidi-style braids to the Golden Globes last year, and since then all the household names have been wearing variations on the style. Some stars have been keeping hair off their face by braiding a section of hair near their foreheads and keeping the rest loose. The Hills' Lauren Conrad sported the look on an episode last season.

DON'T MISS
The woman offers instructions on how to do a single french braid--not what this style requires--but the mechanics are essentially the same on a smaller scale. Separate the hair into three parts, braid as you normally would, and gradually pick up pieces further down the hairline as you go. When you've braided across most of the hairline, you can pin the braid back to keep it from unraveling.

You can leave the rest of your hair straight, like Lauren, or you can curl or wave your hair for added volume and romance.
