If you're looking for ways to update your hair this season, don't miss out on the season's Old Hollywood inspired looks and styles. Fall 2009 hairstyle trends call for super-chic bobs for shorter hair, and loose, romantic waves for longer styles.

Here's a sneak peak at some of the most popular women's hairstyle trends for the season:

Fall 2009 Hairstyle Trend: Loose Waves

If you have medium-length or longer hair, use a large-barrel curling iron to create loose, romantic waves for a super-romantic look. It's the season to loosen up the bun and let those curls hang loose, and you can add some volume with mousse and leave-in conditioner.

Fall 2009 Hairstyle Trend: Sculpted Bob

The sculpted, chin-length bob is back for yet another season, and you can pull this look off either with shaggy layers or a simpler, angled cut. Whatever type of cut you choose, just make sure to sculpt it smooth with a straightening iron and plenty of gel or mousse to keep those locks in place.

Fall 2009 Hairstyle Trend: Thick and Blunt Bangs

Blunt bangs are a popular choice for many celebrities this season, and help you achieve an innocent, youthful look. Thick and blunt bangs cut at the crown are the best way to capture this fresh trend that can take a few years off your looks!

Fall 2009 Hairstyle Trend: The Dramatic Side Part

The dramatic side part is back for another season, and can be pulled off with nearly any hair length or type. The extreme side part works especially well with the short bob or hair that is pulled back into a ponytail or updo; just let it set with plenty of hairspray or gel for the picture-perfect look.
