1. 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.
Honestly, it's all about experimenting and sometimes they just don't get it right. Maybe they're trying to set a new trend or just want a change, but it really doesn't always work out!
Right?! It's such a bold move, and not everyone can pull it off. Some celebs sadly end up looking like they just walked out of the 90s in the worst way.
Because they're in the spotlight! When a celeb has a bad day, it's like their haircut gets immortalized in photos and memes forever. Plus, we're curious creatures who love a good gossip!
You know, sometimes they do! Beauty and style are super subjective. What we might think is 'bad', they might totally love. And if they don't, it's a lesson for them too, just like us!
Maybe some do. But a lot of them just embrace it as a fun phase in their style evolution. Every bad haircut is a step towards discovering what really works for them, just like all of us!

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!

3. 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!

Listen More Than You Talk
Genuine interest in your date’s thoughts and experiences makes a stronger connection.

Make Eye Contact
Holding eye contact creates intimacy and shows that you're genuinely engaged.
Dress to Impress (Yourself)
Wear something that makes you feel confident and comfortable—your best outfit is the one you love.
Don’t Overthink Texting
Keep messages playful and flirty without stressing over response times.
Set Boundaries Early
Know what you’re looking for and communicate your expectations with kindness and clarity.
Be Present
Put your phone away, enjoy the moment, and focus on getting to know the person in front of you.
Have Fun, No Matter the Outcome
Not every date will lead to love, but every experience can teach you something new about yourself.
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!

The strength and resilience of daughters from famous homes like that of Whitney Scott Mathers should be widely celebrated. Despite growing up under the spotlight owing to her father's fame, Whitney has thrived and continually emphasizes the importance of personal development and self-awareness. Her journey demonstrates a testament to determination and independence.
5. 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 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
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 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
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?

I love J-Los hair but shouldn't have her bangs pulled back
This is one of the most sexist articles I've read for a very long time. The author needs to go back to the stone ages & all of this thinking is dangerous to young women. Depicting styles that aren't feminine or boyish as not 'attractive' . Up until reading this article I found reading the lists quite interesting, but this is sad that the author plays into negative stereotypes of women. I completely agree with Kate's comments above- please replace this author and bring in someone who exists in real time! Insecurity breeds judgement.
Hmmm why are most of these reasons "doesn't look feminine enough" or "short hair"
I loved miley's long hair,but she wants to get off her Hannah Montana style,I think is good for her,and she rocks it!
Hayley Williams is not on this list. Therefore it is not valid.
Of course this is just my individual opinion on haircuts that I feel aren't flattering. I don't have anything against short hair, in fact mine was short until recently :) I just don't think any of these haircuts make these beautiful celebrities look their best - particularly Scarlett Johansson's style :)
I think Pamela hair looks great. I think it makes her look her age but in a high class way, also Miley's hair is good too
this list is awful. there's nothing wrong with short hair.
I disagree with Miley Cyrus previous haircut, she looks fab!
I think Miley's hair is edgy but soft at the same time. Stop judging people with short hair.
