Celebrities have to deal with the same hair style issue that bedevils every woman - how do you bring your hair and your face into a harmonious working relationship so that you look gorgeous?

In this sense, celebrity hair styles are no different from any others. But on the other hand, by their very nature, celebrities receive a lot more help than other women get with their hair styles.

And not all celebrity hair styles are equal.

There are the hair styles you see when when celebrities aren't expecting to be photographed. What results then is often more like a celebrity lack of hair style - and a face you barely recognize because she looks so different.

There are the celebrity hairstyles you see at gala events, opening nights and photo calls. These are glamorous, glittering hair styles matched with designer wardrobes and fashionable accessory males who, preferably, are themselves celebrities.

These red carpet hair styles usually look pretty good - but it's always interesting to examine the ones that don't work, and instructive to figure out why.

And there are the celebrity hair styles that misrepresent fantasy as reality. These are the celebrity hair styles that are just completely unfair - the hair styles that make some celebrity female look fantastic in a particular photograph, though she could never look that way in walking, talking real life.

In these photos the celebrity woman's hair has been styled and her makeup applied by professionals who know exactly how faces work, and how people respond to faces. A top notch photographer has arranged the lighting and camera angle to help create the most attractive face shape. Colors are coordinated, backgrounds are organized, proof sheets are studied, nothing is left to chance.

This is all about image-making. It's harmless enough as long as you realize it's fake, it's all smoke and mirrors.

You can learn useful stuff from the image-makers. They don't do things by accident. Understanding what they do to make celebrities look stunning can help you to find a hair style - a REAL hair style - that suits, flatters and pleases you.

You'll find all sorts of hair styles here at Celebrity Hair Styles Magazine, and all sorts of celebrities - singers, actresses, comedians, beauty queens and models. Even politicians ... maybe ... if their hair styles look cute.

But don't get hung up on celebrity hairstyles. Don't get hung up on celebrity anything. Take what you can use from celebrities and focus on your life.

Who knows - maybe some celebrity is studying your hair styles and wondering how she can steal them!
