A recent poll has named Beyoncé the ultimate hair icon of the past decade.

Hair experts behind retailer Fabriah.com lined up a number of famous faces and asked respondents to vote for their favourite hair style.

Beyoncé topped the poll with 20% of voters naming her hair their top choice.

Other music stars that were named amongst the best hair styles of the past ten years include Cheryl Cole, Christina Aguilera, Amy Winehouse and Lady Gaga.

Francesca Davies of Fabriah.com explained: “It takes a lot for hair to become iconic and even more so for someone to become a hair icon. We have mapped their changing hair styles over the years and many of us have even had a go at copying one or two of them.” 

She concluded: “However, the fact of the matter is, every single person in our top ten could be recognised purely by their hair alone.”

Some of those who voted for Beyoncé’s tresses commented: “I would go as far as saying she has never had a bad hair style. I would love to know how much she spends and what products she uses to keep her hair looking that good.”

Fabriah.com’s top ten hair icons of the decade are:

1. Beyoncé
2. David Beckham
3. Cheryl Cole
4. Christina Aguilera
5. Amy Winehouse
6. Boris Johnson
7. Kate Middleton
8. Kate Moss
9. Lady Gaga
10. Sharon Osbourne
