Think you can’t do an updo in short hair? Think again…

o-MARION-COTILLARD-BEEHIVE-HAIRSTYLE-570

Hair Romance loves Marion Cotillard’s hair as she know how versatile a bob hairstyle can be. This latest hairstyle as seen on the red carpet at Cannes takes it to a whole new level.

'Blood Ties' Premiere - The 66th Annual Cannes Film Festival

With some extra special backcombing, Marion’s bob has been transformed into a 1960s inspired updo. I wouldn’t be surprised if there was a little padding inside that beehive, but with some styling powder and some backcombing you too can achieve this hairstyle.
