Popular movie actress Keira Knightley enjoys changing her hairstyles for the different movies she stars in like her classic and sporty bob in Bend it Like Beckham to her curly waves in The Pirates of Caribbean. Keira's hairstyles will work best with fine to medium textured hair of various lengths. All hairstyles will look best with a great cut, whether it is a short style or a long style. Keira's short bob cut styled in a crunchy, no fuss casual style is popular with young women between the ages of 18 - 35. The following are some tips for Keira's short bob hairstyle that she made famous starring as the bounty hunter in Domino:

1. Apply a texturizing spray to damp hair and use your fingers to blend it into your hair.

2. Turn your head upside down and the use the diffuser attachment on your hair dryer to dry your hair.

3. With your free hand, scrunch your hair as you are drying.

4. The trick is to not let your hair dry completely. When your hair is almost dry, flip your head back over.

5. Part your hair in the center and continue blowing your hair until it is completely dry.

6. Apply hairspray to set your style.

Keira Knightley's latest hairstyle is a version of the inverted bob. In this style, the hair is longer on the top and around the face and is shorter and stacked around the ears and the back. This inverted bob style looks great with complementing highlights in every hair color. Both the bob style and inverted bob styles can be various lengths of layers from short to medium to long. For a sleeker finish to your bob style, you can use a large round curling iron to shape the hair into a smooth and straight hairstyle. If your hair looks flat and needs some lift, try combing your hair starting at the back.

To get Keira's curly and flirty hairstyle made famous in The Pirates of the Caribbean, apply a straightening serum and begin by blow drying your hair with your head upside down. When your hair is not quite dry, flip your head back over and use your fingers to create a wavy and tousled look. Keira's longer hairstyle can also be pulled up into a chic updo for special events.

If you like to wear your hair short, Keira's bob or inverted bob style is a great choice for you. This versatile hairstyle can be worn smooth and sleek or curly and messy. If you like to have more length to your hair, then Keira's longer style with loose curls is an excellent option. All of Keira Knightley's hairstyles are fairly low maintenance and easy to style at home.
