No. 5: Kate Gosselin
There's a fine line between fame and infamy. This is true for both celebrities and their iconic hairstyles. Kate Gosselin (and her hair strangely captivating hairstyle) embodies this notion perhaps better than just about anyone in recent memory.

No. 4: Tina Turner
Tina Turner is the original powerful female to overcome great challenges and emerge with ... an iconic hairstyle. It's hard to imagine Turner performing her trademark energetic moves onstage without her signature electric hairstyle playing its part.

No. 3: Madonna
Sure, many think of her original tangled -- almost dreadlocked -- mop tied back with a lace ribbon as the signature Madonna 'do. But the peak of Madge's career came with her "Truth or Dare" tour and the film that documented it. As moviegoers watched Madonna's stylist create this "I Dream of Jeannie"-inspired updo hairstyle before each performance, the image of it, and her pointy Gaultier bra, burned itself into the collective memory for eternity.

No. 2: Marge Simpson
Who among us, at one time or another, hasn't related so intensely to Marge Simpson that she believed with all her heart that she'd be entirely comfortable in a two-foot high beehive hairstyle? God bless Marge Simpson and all she stands for. Her story will never be tarnished and her place in history never challenged.

No. 1: Farrah Fawcett
Numero uno should come as no surprise. While her acting career and love life had its ups and downs, the "Farrah Flip" is firmly seated as the biggest hair craze that ever was. Nearly every woman from every walk of life felt compelled to copy this untamed, layered hairstyle. Farrah, mostly thanks to her spectacular mane, was the biggest sex symbol since Marilyn Monroe. And, importantly, this style still looks great today.

Starting before movies, television, photography or even electricity, hairstyles have defined female celebrities and vice versa. We take a moment to pay homage to the top 10 most iconic celebrity hairstyles in recent history, including a few from right now.
