Filed under: Runway Trends, Hair Cut and Style
Whenever we see elaborately casual updos on models, like at the Venexiana by Katie Stern 2009 runway show, we imagine an army of tiny fingered elves working for hours to achieve that perfect combination of texture and twist.

Not all of us wake up every morning, shower, and step out the door looking fabulous. However, if you think celebrities are blessed with some superhuman DNA by which they look stunning all the time, think again. These folks have stylists working on them from head to toe.
