Freida Pinto's Simple but Sleek Hairstyle

Freida Pinto, the new star of Slumdog Millionaire (have you seen it yet?!), sure loves her half-up, half-down hair style...she wore the style to the majority of her press event and premieres. The half-up, half-down look is one that Freida rocks whether its a fancy soiree or more casual event. To get her variations on the style, see below:

Take a chunk of hair in the front, about the width of your eyebrows. Tease in the back for a pouf and pin in front of the crown. Curl the ends of the hair loosely - no tight Shirley Temple curls here.

Blow hair out until its sleek and shiny and while blowing out, flip hair out at the ends. Make a side part. Taking the hair above the ears, pin the hair right above the nape of the neck. If you have short pieces out in front like Freida, pull out and let them frame your face.

Freida goes for a Bridget Bardotesque half-up do. For this look, take a chunk of hair a few inches above the ears and tease on the underside. Smooth the hair on the top with a brush maintaining the volume of the teased hair on the underside. Pin hair at the crown.

Take a very small chunk of hair, within the width of the eyes. Pin hair back on the top of the head, in front of the crown.
