TIFF Red Carpet: Best & Worst Tressed

Whose Hair Was Haute & Whose Was A Hot Mess

Amanda Seyfried: Let's face it--Jennifer's Body was all about Megan Fox. But Amanda owned the red carpet at the Chloe (her second TIFF movie) after-party hosted by ET Canada. Sicilia says: "Perfect! Classic old Hollywood. Very Jessica Rabbit." It's like her way of saying, Seriously, I look like the real star, right?

Drew Barrymore: Everyone loves Drew and her quirky style but her two-tone Debbie Harry-esque hair had opinions divided like bad split ends. "I hate it," says Sicilia. "It looks like she dipped the ends of her hair in dye; it's too harsh." Just because you can pull it off and we still find you adorable, it doesn't mean you should.

Megan Fox: The underexposed "Jennifer's Body" star had one of the buzziest films at TIFF that didn't star George Clooney. And according to Sicilia, one of the best coiffed heads of hair, "For me, she had the best hair of the festival." He adds, "It's very pinup girl, that whole thing. It's 'done' hair. Very polished."

Julianne Moore: "She's a beautiful woman, but her hair ..." says Sicilia. "Technically, I hate it. It looks like a football on the back of her head. Her hair does nothing for her."

The fix?

"Having the bun either higher or lower would have been better or even slightly off-center. I hate hair that looks like there was no effort put into it."

Lazy hair-itis (we're looking at you, Kate Hudson) is one of Sicilia's biggest pet peeves. And as every red carpet watcher knows, not trying hard enough is just as bad as trying too hard. "Take the time and effort to look good for your fans," Sicilia advises.

So, as awards season officially gets in gear, will TIFF's unfussy dos, shiny waves and undone chignons reign supreme? "I think we're going to see a return to 'Breck girl' hair -- big, full hair but not Marge Simpson beehives -- and the Heidi braid will still be a popular red carpet look," Sicilia predicts.

That's all well and good, but what the heck are we going to do with our hair in the meantime?!
