Will you dare Gwen Stefani's rock star hair?

Gwen Stefani is without a doubt one of the most original and go-getting singers of her generation. Ever a free spirit, Stefani still possesses that rebellious attitude from her rock star years. A major inspiration for her pop career, this rock touch is what gives Gwen Stefani her unique and sexy look. This re-worked ponytail is just one fantastic example of her many rock hairstyles.

This style works best on hair that is all one length. First of all, with your head upside-down, brush your hair carefully. Then, bring your head up and brush your hair back. Take a thick piece of hair from the front section of your hair and separate it from the rest. You will use this to form a quiff once your ponytail is finished. Pull your hair back and secure it with an elastic hair band. Leave out another long piece of hair to be used later on.

Once your hair is in a ponytail, pull back the piece of hair you left out to create a quiff, twisting it slightly for a touch of glamour. Secure using hair grips, preferably the same colour as your hair so they are not visible. Use the last piece of hair to conceal your hair band and hair grips. This hairstyle tends to work better on lighter hair as the finer details really stand out.
