The Coolest Way to Wear Layers

Long, piecey layers have a low-key appeal that makes them one of our favorite hairstyles for summer. And it seems like every stylish young thing at the MTV Movie Awards was thinking the same thing.

There, the youthful style was worn both wavy (Scarlett Johansson, above, and Whitney Port) and straight (Jessica Biel), and looked best when paired with equally girlish doe-eyed makeup.

To add this kind of texture to your own hair, try working a dollop of a styling wax such as Bed Head Mastermind through the ends. For a wide-eyed ingenue makeup look, pile on a thickening mascara. (We love Maybelline New York The Colossal Volum' Express Mascara.)
