"If you are feeling more daring and want to try Drew’s grungy two–tone look, ask your stylist to apply three different levels of lightener using a smudging technique. Your stylist should do this freehand for a natural, relaxed look." Says Mark.

"If Jessica’s glamorous glossy locks are tempting you to try two – tone colour, ask your stylist to use a Baliage technique where they will apply random slices of biscuit and honey blonde freehand to give a non–uniform colour texture throughout the length." Says Mark.

"There are a number of different techniques that your stylist can use to achieve this boho style. If Alexa’s subtle take on the trend has inspired you, ask for vertical slices of colour that are two to three shades lighter than your own colour, on the under section of your hair." Explains Mark.

"A key product for this trend is sea salt spray; spritz hair liberally to give that Californian, beach effect and wear with plenty of attitude.” Suggests Mark. We love Bumble & bumble's surf spray or try Kevin Murphy's Hair Resort, which ELLE's Acting Beauty Writer, Georgia Collins, says gives "the best beachy texture this side of Bondi".

See the wardrobe of Gossip Girl's most fashionable star (and yes, it's as fabulous as Serena's)...
Grunge roots with highlighted ends is the look that has captured the A-list's imagination right now. Drew Barrymore
leads the way with her look - perfectly blended, it's cool yet sophisticated. Other grown-up takes on the style include Rachel Bilson's
dark roots through to caramel ends and Jessica Biel's
subtly placed highlights; both are groomed to perfection. If undone styles are more your thing, look to Pixie
and Alexa
for inspiration, their hair has a rock vibe thanks to the combination of dip-dying and dishevelled texture; while Blake's
effortless blonde ponytail and dark roots dresses down her red carpet look. Click on to see the images and tips from Mark Leeson; Creative Heads Colour Expert of the Year 2010.
