If you want a more stylized, wiggy bob �
Go for a look similar to Milla Jovovitch's in the film "The Fifth Element."

As seen on: Agyness Deyn
Best for: Straight or wavy hair that's not too thick
How to ask for it: Ask your stylist for blunt bangs (for an even edgier look -- try uneven fringe -- if you dare) and a very layered and textured bob. This cut is very versatile and using various types of products will help you achieve many different looks. To get a wiggy, Andy Warhol-esque look, Anderson says "a volumizing dry shampoo will do the trick" such as Alterna Caviar Anti-Aging Dry Shampoo, $20. This will give you a "super, super matte finish" and thicken up your hair. Use dry shampoo all over hair (not just roots) to get texture from roots to ends. If hair isn't dirty, run a soft wax like Magic Move, $32 through it first before applying the dry shampoo, to give the powder something to grip onto.

If you want to look like a rockstar -- even if you're not one, try �
A modern version of Joan Jett's signature look.

As seen on: Kristen Stewart
Best for: Straight or wavy hair.
How to ask for it: Ask your stylist to make the crown section of your hair disconnected and shorter than the rest, with more volume at the top (not a mullet though). Spray crown area with a styling pomade like Sachajuan Spray Wax, $32 which will give it some lift and volume without making it stick straight up like a gel or hairspray might.

Chances are that during winter you got lazy or needed to save cash, so you skipped your regularly scheduled haircut appointments. Whoops. And now you're hiding behind a hat or defaulting to a ponytail (you're so not alone). All split ends aside (don't even get us started on our roots), it's finally time to hit the salon. But here's the dilemma: Should you tell your stylist "I'll have the usual," or "I'm ready for something new"? Tough call, but if the latter is where you're headed, the next decision is whether you want just a subtle update or if you're ready for a drastic haircut.

If you're game for something different, but not dramatic, Erin Anderson, co-owner of the Woodley and Bunny Salon in Brooklyn, N.Y., has fresh ideas about how to jazz up your current haircut (or lack thereof). And if you're ready for a total haircut overhaul, Anderson has fashion forward haircut trends to share with you too -- some that are hot for spring, and others based on the haircuts she's currently giving. She says that her clients (which include celebs Chlo� Sevigny and Milla Jovovitch) are making really bold moves with their hair lately. So if you�re also ready to take the plunge and try a totally new haircut, her advice will help you learn how to ask your stylist for the specific look you're after, and how to style your new cut using a few of her fave hair care products.

Read on to get her tips and inspiration from these photos of celebrity hairstyles to help you decide on the best new look (dramatic or not!) for your hair. And remember: "At the end of the day, extreme or not, the hairstyle should complement the person and should be altered or adjusted to suit. If you see an extreme cut, use it as a guide and find a way to incorporate it, not just replicate [it]," says Anderson.
