A beautiful updo adds just the right amount of glamour to an evening look. However, creating a formal hairstyle by yourself isn’t always that easy, so here are some great tutorials to help make the process more manageable. Each updo shown below was inspired by a celebrity who wore it on the red carpet.

Sincerely, Saba

 #1) Be soft and feminine and try Jessica Alba’s braided updo. 

#2) If you want an understated style that’s a little edgy, try Vanessa Hudgen’s messy updo.

#3) Be chic and go for Kim Kardashian’s classic bun. 

#4) If you want to look glamorous, try Eva Longoria’s elegant updo.

#5) If you don’t feel like going for an updo, but still want to do something a little different, try Angelina Jolie’s gently swept back look.
