Straight Hair, Don't Care
When you think of Nina Dobrev hair, you probably think of long, dark brown, straight hair. She was often seen sporting this simple look at red carpet events and on the hit show "The Vampire Diaries". If it ain't broke, don't fix it! We never got tired of this look.

Classic Ponytail
Rather than looking like she's about to hit the gym, Nina Dobrev always manages to look like a class act when wearing a ponytail. This slicked-back look was no exception. Dobrev's hair was teased on top for added volume, and wrapping hair around the base of the ponytail made the look just a touch fancier for the red carpet.

Fishtail Braid
Although not a stranger to braids, Nina Dobrev has never been one to wear a simple braid to any event. Here, her darker-than-ever hair was slicked back into a thick and complicated fishtail braid. It was the perfect complement to her smoky eye and little black dress.

Messy Side Braid
Dobrev had some fun sporting a messy rope braid at the 2014 Teen Choice Awards. The loose waves not only added texture to the look but also helped to show off her great auburn highlights and lighter ends.

We can't get enough of this Nina Dobrev hair look from the 2016 American Music Awards! She looked like a rock star with French braids on one side of her head and plenty of volume on the other. To take the 'do a step further, the braids were accented with silver glitter.

Messy Top Knot
This Nina Dobrev hair look gives us some serious messy bun envy! To achieve the look yourself, slick your hair back and secure it into a high ponytail. Wrap your hair into a loose bun around the base of your ponytail, and secure with bobby pins. Tug at the sides of your bun, even pulling some strands of hair loose for more of an undone look.

Sophisticated Updo
Dobrev could fit in at any prom or wedding party with this classic updo. The twists and low bun looked perfectly elegant while the loose, wispy curls at each side of her face added a bit of femininity and charm.

One for the Books
Proving there's no look she can't pull off, Nina Dobrev wore a complicated updo to a 2016 Golden Globes after party. Her go-to stylist, Riawna Capri, created a pompadour-like style at the top of Dobrev's head and an inside-out French braid on each side of that. She then twisted, knotted and pinned the rest of the hair in place to make sure each section blended together. This look is not for the faint of heart!
