Whether they are a fan of all-out action or clever comic book adaptations, clients will always look to their favourite actresses for inspiration. With a blockbuster summer of box-office smashes ahead, having a good awareness of who's doing what with their hair both on-screen and off will enable you to ensure you're giving your clients the A-list looks they lust after.
Here are some of summer's leading stars and the looks they love - which will your clients opt for?

Kate Beckinsale
"Kate's hair epitomises Hollywood glamour and the style suits her. The colour is very on-trend and the smooth, bouncy curls are soft, flattering and look in great condition. I suspect she has a few additional hairpieces as there's an awful lot of hair here - very few people actually have this much! This look is for the client who has time to blow-dry their hair or let it set in large rollers."
Natalie Rayner, Elajé Hair & Beauty, Cambridge
Emma Stone
"This style makes Emma ooze elegance. The classic messy bun is a very understated style and Emma's has been done in a way that makes her look effortlessly chic. This mature look is simple and low-key but still gets attention in all the right ways, compared with some of the more flamboyant tactics that other celebs adopt. Keeping the red lips as the main focal point adds instant sex appeal. She looks great!"
Jake Unger, HOB Salons, London

Noomi Rapace
"This is a versatile, everyday, achievable hair-up style. Because it's super sleek and smooth, it defines Noomi's face shape and puts emphasis on the colour. It works for her because it keeps the hair away from the face. It defines her cheekbones, while the fringe adds softness and style. This look is ideal for clients who like smooth and sleek finishes or for those who want to keep the hair off their face. Because of the simplicity, it's easily achievable but still creates a great finish. However, adding volume through the crown and texture through the fringe would give this look a more styled and glamorous feel."
Louise Jenkins, Paul Falltrick Hairdressing, Romford, Essex
Anne Hathaway
"Whether worn long, as in this picture, or cropped as her hair is now, Anne Hathaway always mixes high-octane glamour with a relaxed girl-next-door vibe. The soft ombré colour works well with the soft wave, with the whole look showing off her natural beauty perfectly."
Karolyn Watt, Byron Hairdressing, Kirkcaldy
