1. Miley Cyrus

Miley Cyrus Miley chopped off her flowing locks into a cropped, peroxide blonde 'do a while ago, and whilst the style does suit her face shape, it's a far less feminine style. It isn't as soft and flattering, making it top of my list of the worst celebrity hairstyles.

2. Lady Gaga

For the record, shaving a strange triangle shape into the back of your head and then having it tattooed isn't flattering or particularly attractive. Lady Gaga is known for her weird and wonderful styles, but this isn't one most of us would want to try!

Frequently asked questions

3. Scarlett Johansson

Scarlett Johansson Scarlett is always perfectly groomed and usually channeling old-Hollywood glamour, but in 2013 she stepped out with this strange, messy mullet-like hairdo. Not only does it make her look rather boyish, the blonde shade is rather unflattering too. Avoid the mullet at all costs unless you want to look cheap and dated!

4. Pamela Anderson

Pamela Anderson In 2013, Pammy swapped her trademark, flowing blonde locks (that made her so famous on the set of Baywatch) for a rather odd, cropped pixie cut that just makes her look like a boy. We miss the old Pammy with her glamorous blonde curls - bring her back!

5. Nicole Richie

Nicole Richie Back when Nicole was just Paris Hilton's sidekick, her hair was sadly lacking in style - this multi-colored, straggly disaster wasn't one of her best looks. The color is terrible and the style is wrong too - let's hope these were hair extensions!

6. Jennifer Lopez

Jennifer Lopez Jennifer is usually seen sporting sleek, glossy locks or full curls, but this bobbed style with huge curls is just all wrong - it's almost comical. If you're going to curl your hair, don't do it like this! There's just too much of everything going on here; too much volume and too many curls and it's just terrible!

7. Mariah Carey

Mariah Carey Poor Mariah is known for her fashion disasters and this hairstyle is definitely one to be avoided. Unless you're 10 years old, a high, side ponytail is a definite no! Let's not forget that Mariah was 30 when she tried this style out...

8. Rumer Willis

Rumer Willis Rumer is known for her dark features and hair and this photograph is the perfect example of what not to do with your long, dark hair. Don't even consider bleaching it a cheap shade of peroxide blonde. And definitely don't crop it off into a buzzed, boyish cut. Rumer's eyebrows clash with her new 'do and there's nothing flattering or glamorous about this boyish style!

9. Rihanna

Rihanna Even gorgeous, cool women like Rihanna get it wrong sometimes. I think this was one of her worst styles - the shaved sides and strangely shaped top almost make the style look like a wig. She's had some great hairstyles over the years, but this is doing nothing for her!

Even celebrities can have bad hair days, so the next time you're feeling blue about your barnet, or considering a change of style, just look at some of these celebrity hair disasters, and you're sure to feel better! What's the worst hairstyle you've ever had?

Where Thoughts and Opinions Converge

I really disagree with the part about Miley. Hair shouldn't be judged on femininity or lack thereof. Her hair doesn't have to be feminine because not all women are feminine and that's okay. Her hair suits her a lot better now than it did before. I feel like this article in certain areas promotes gender roles and maybe even sexism, which is completely wrong.

I think Miley's hair looks great on her. It's much better than her same old, same old style she used to wear. It's so easy to blend in to what everyone else is doing and I love to see women brave enough to defy the gender roles that have been set for us. I also think Pamela Anderson looks great! She looks classy and more mature. It's a little ridiculous to be 75 years old and still trying to be a bimbo, sex symbol, so I love to see women who gracefully embrace their age and the beauty that comes in all ages instead of trying to blend into the sex appeal of the shallow. Having short hair does not make one "boyish", I see a lot of women with short hair who are still absolutely stunning and all I focus on is the beautiful features of their face, as opposed to their hairstyle. To sum it up, you might want to reflect on your ideas of femininity and catch up with the times. The world is changing, and thankfully we don't have to be barefoot and pregnant anymore, so I think it's safe to assume that cutting off a few locks doesn't change someone's beauty anymore either. :)

Miley's hair looks good! Judging people by their hair.....bad! I had a co worker way back when and she cut her hair pretty short. I thought it was fitting. Everyone else made comments. Come to find out, she had cancer. Never judge or blast people for their looks,clothes and hair etc.

miley shouldn't be on this list

Guys look at Hayley William's hair! She cut it really short and dyed it some awesome colors and she looks amazing! I love her :) just like what Sami said above, it was a shedding period for her from losing two band mates and completely changing their look and sound, and she can still rock it

i believe that the person who made this article is just really into long hair. honestly, i liked miley's hair. so her being #1 on your list seems kind of biased. she didn't cut her hair for you, she cut it for herself.

I think Miley's hair looks very sexy and feminine. Her long brown hair made her look 16 and very boring

I think Miley's hair is edgy but soft at the same time. Stop judging people with short hair.

Hayley Williams is not on this list. Therefore it is not valid.

Also I think the writer is confusing "feminine" and "gamine" - so stop getting your panties in a twist
