The target: Rachel Zoe
The current hair situation: After years of protesting, the celeb stylist is expecting her first child in April. With all the demands a new baby brings (plus her eponymous clothing line readying to debut), the already over-scheduled diva will have even less free time. What better reason to switch to a low-maintenance hairstyle?

The fix: Her signature long blonde waves overwhelm her tiny frame and have a tendency to appear over-styled and damaged. Losing much of the length and bulk will lighten her appearance considerably and afford her an easier-to-manage style that still screams "chic!"

Up next? Angelina Jolie

The target: Angelina Jolie
The current hair situation: You'd think that with all of the globetrotting, humanitarian work and brood-raising Angie would relish the opportunity to be relieved of her super-long hair. But, judging by how rarely she changes it, apparently Brad's the only one who likes to mix things up in the hair department.

The fix: Her hair has gotten too long and seems to lack a discernable style. Throw in the fact that the bangs are an odd length (maybe she's trying to grow them out?) and the beautiful Oscar winner seems to be drowning in a less than glamorous 'do. Our suggestion? Chop off lots of the length, add some strategically placed highlights and she'll have a chic mom cut that's red carpet-worthy too.

Up next? Carrie Underwood.

The target: Carrie Underwood
The current hair situation: Look up "pretty blonde country singer" in the dictionary and you'll see a picture of the "American Idol" victor. But, now that she's a top selling, multiple Grammy winner, Carrie needs a chic, modern style that's versatile enough to go from "real life" to the stage.

The fix: Toning down the blonde (or switching shades altogether) would instantly add some glamour to the newlywed's hair. And, shortening the length, perhaps to a bob, would lend movement and bounce whether it's worn curly or straight.

Sure, they're rich and famous and lead fabulously glamorous lives but sometimes even while they're busy jet-setting around the globe, A-list celebrities can get caught in beauty ruts -- just like the rest of us.

You know how your best friend Michelle has had that same old feathered Sammie Jo Carrington haircut since 1987? Well, flip through the pages of any celebrity magazine and you'll quickly realize that there are more than a few big name stars who are stuck in that same sort of groove. Sure, there are some, like Drew Barrymore and Scarlett Johansson, who mix up their hairstyles and color with alarming regularity, but many others have stayed with the same look for most of their careers.

Clearly, they (or their stylist) found a look that worked for them and they're sticking with it come hell or high water. Whether it's because they think the public only wants to see them a certain way or because they've become complacent, some just don't seem to want to transform their signature celebrity hairstyle in the slightest.

Well, in the interest of shaking things up a bit, we'd like to (gently) suggest that a certain few should step out of the past and grab hold of a bold new look. To that end, we've combed through hundreds of photos to find the seven female celebrity hairstyles we think could really use a boost. We're not talking about overhauling their fashion senses or revamping their entire makeup palettes � we just want to recommend a new hairstyle and/or color that (we think) would work wonders for modernizing their entire appearance.

So, just which celebrity hairstyles could use a little love? We've pegged Lindsay Lohan, Carrie Underwood, Rachel Zoe, Angelina Jolie, Demi Moore, Courteney Cox and, yes, even Jennifer Aniston. Curious to see what they'd look like transformed? Start clicking and see if you agree that they could stand to embrace some big time change.
