With all eyes on Rotterdam, The Netherlands this weekend, for the 65th Eurovision Song Contest, we take a look back at 10 of the most memorable Eurovision hair and beauty moments - the good, the bad and the just plain strange!
Abba represented Sweden in 1974 and their seventies styling feels surprisingly relevant today. Give Ani-Frid's curls a tousle and Agnetha a few more layers into that feathered cut and both of these two would look 2015-ready!
Australians entering Eurovision may be causing controversy in 2015 but it's not the first time an Aussie has taken to the stage! English-born Olivia Newton John moved to Australia aged 6, but that didn't stop her representing her home country in 1974. Her loose waves and subtle sun-kissed balayage wouldn't look out of place in a salon today.
A true 90s red-hair icon, Gina G is another Aussie that represented the UK. Her copper highlighted colour remains a fave, even if it is a bit Ginger Spice.
Sandie Shaw was the ultimate 60s babe with this smock dress and swingy bob by - who else? - Vidal Sassoon.
Belarusian duo Aleksandra and Konstantin both had luscious long hair but Aleksandra definitely wins out with her Rapunzel-esque blonde waves.
What's with Nordic women and their cool hair? Apparently it's been a thing since at least 1977, when Finland's Monica Aspelund rocked this pageboy haircut.
Gisela of Andorra wouldn't look out of place at an avant-garde hair competition with her crimped and teased textures and warrior-woman bustier. Fierce!
Love 'em or hate 'em, there's no disputing Jedward's hair makes an impact wherever they pop up.
Who could forget Conchita Wurst's now iconic look? Who knew a beard and glossy waves could be such a perfect match? Thumbs up to stylist Yochai Mevorach for such a great style - although apparently he's not allowed to touch the beard.
