Though Mulligan's hair has grown significantly since her Gatsby pixie, it was still barely shoulder-length when she wore this knotted updo. To copy Mulligan's short hair updo:

1.Start by blow-drying your mane straight to give this updo a clean look. (If you want some added shine like Mulligan's, apply a hair serum like OGX Coconut Miracle Oil Penetrating Oil, $8.99.)

2. Pull hair into two ponytails (one high, one low).

3. Coil sections of each ponytail towards the center and secure with bobby pins.

Here's a sharp, side-parted upgrade to your basic ponytail. To copy Mara's volumized updo on lob-length hair:

1. Apply a volumizing mousse like Leonor Greyl Mousse Au Lotus Volumatrice, $46, to damp hair before blowing it dry.

2. After you've combed the hair back into a low ponytail and wrapped a tiny section around the elastic, apply Moroccanoil Treatment, $15, and Moroccanoil Glimmer Shine Spray, $28, to add dramatic shine and finish the look.

Scarlett Johansson is pretty much the queen of sexy (I mean have you seen "Ghost in the Shell"?), so you're guaranteed to catch a few glances copying this short updo:

1. You guessed it, start with wavy hair. You can achieve this with a blow-dryer diffuser or a 3/4-inch curling iron. Be sure to alternate directions if you use a curling iron to create more movement in the hair.

2. To give the style volume, back comb the hair at the middle of the head and work your way towards the crown.

3. Then, starting just above the ear, grab 2-inch sections of hair and twist. Pin these pieces at the back of the head. Continue this until you've pinned back all your hair on both sides.

4. To give the style sex appeal, finger comb your hair along the front hairline to free a few stray strands, and spritz the style with hairspray.

If feared you would never be able to channel your inner princess the day you chopped your strands, Lucy Hale and her bob are here to assure you, romantic (and gorgeous) updos are possible for short hair. To create this stunning style:

1. Take 2-inch sections of hair and curl them using a 1-inch curling iron, alternating directions as you go.

2. Once hair is curled, run your fingers through your strands to loosen up the curls and create soft waves. Then, spritz a texturing spray like Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray, $46, to give hair more grip and texture.

3. Create a basic reverse braid on both sides of your hair, until each of them reaches the nape of your neck. Gather the remaining hair, and craft it into a messy bun.

4. Pull a large piece of hair at the front of your face and curl with a 3/4-inch curling iron for some added face framing. Proceed to top off the princess look with your favorite flower hairpieces.

Katy Perry's style is loud and proud, and this voluminous short hair updo is the perfect fit for the hair chameleon. While her mermaid tresses play on her wild and playful side, her refined French twist speaks to her boss-babe, no-nonsense side. To steal this look:

1. Start with second-day hair. Spritz dry shampoo at the roots and gently backcomb hair, starting at the front of the head and working towards the crown.

2. Grab 2-inch sections of hair from the sides of the head, and smooth them out using a bristle comb. Pin each one tightly to the middle of your head, and tuck any remaining length under itself.

3. Continue step two until you've pulled back all your hair. Secure the style with hairspray.

4.For a glossy updo, mist a shine spray like Kenra Professional Shine Spray, $17.
