Men prefer women with long wavy hairstyles, as sported by television presenter Kelly Brook, according to a new poll.
The feminine look, also worn by X-Factor and singer judge Cheryl Cole, came top with 43 per cent of men voting it their favourite style.
Actress Jennifer Aniston's long straight locks came second followed by the classic short bob, seen on Umbrella singer Rihanna and Coronation Street actress Kym Marsh.
Straight mid-length styles, similar to Radio One host Fearne Cotton and actress Gwyneth Paltrow came fourth while the pixie crop, famously sported by Victoria Beckham finished the top five.
Karen Moore, of TRESemme Philips hair appliances, said: "Hair is such a defining part of a woman's appearance.
"Long hair is traditionally strongly linked to femininity which we're sure is the reason that almost half of men have singled out this long, thick, wavy hair as their number one sexiest style.
"Despite men choosing long, natural looking wavy hair as their top style, most women would have to create this style using styling tools as not many are naturally blessed with these lovely locks.
"It's interesting to see that men still favour the traditional stereotypical looks for women, with long hair coming out on top despite the massive popularity of shorter styles like 'the Pob' and Agyness Deyn style crops with women."
Surprisingly though, men claim to prefer the natural look when it comes to styling, with more than a third saying they hate it when women have perfectly groomed hair.
Men also appeared to have a strong preference for shiny hair – with 72 per cent billing it as attractive over hair without gloss.
Karen Moore added: "While men strongly favour the soft, natural, touchable styles over smarter, groomed looks, little do they know that these long luscious curls and straight sleek styles are often the ones which take the most effort to achieve.
"Women everywhere rely on the innovation of hair dryers, straighteners and tongs as well as styling products to get these effects.
"Men should be grateful that new technology means creating these styles is easier than ever compared to years gone by – otherwise they could be waiting much longer for their other halves to get ready."
Half of the men questioned also said they like girls who wear their hair down rather than in a smart up-do.
Other styles to feature in the poll, of 3,000 men, was the bowl cut, recently worn by Katie Holmes, and the 1960s beehive, seen on actress and model Brigitte Bardot.

一项新的调查显示,就像节目主持人凯利.布鲁克的发型,男人更喜欢长波浪卷发的女人。
X-factor节目的歌手以及歌手裁判切尔.科尔也是这种发型,有43%的男人认为那是他们最喜欢的发型。
排名第二的是经典的bob头,演员詹妮弗.安妮斯顿的长直发紧随其后,排名第三。歌手蕾哈娜在歌曲《 Umbrella 》和演员吉姆.马什在《加冕街》中都是这种发型。
中长发,就像 《Radio One》的主持人费米·卡顿和演员格温妮丝-帕特洛排在第四,有名的贝嫂的精灵式短发排在第五。
TRESemme Philips 电卷发棒的凯琳.莫尔说:“发型就是女人外貌的定义。”
“长法很传统,让人直接联想到女性的温柔,这就是为什么有一多半的男人对这种长长的,浓密的卷发情有独钟,并把它排在第一位的原因。”
“因为男人门最喜欢这种自然的长波浪发型,大多数女人也不得不用美发工具弄几缕可爱的波浪卷儿。”
“除了在'the Pob' and Agyness Deyn style 短发大流行时期,男人在找寻伴侣时,还是喜欢这种传统长发的女性。”
尽管有些意外,男人门在谈到发型时还是认为自然的好看,再说一遍,男人最讨厌梳理的一丝不乱的新娘的发型。
男人们也喜欢发质闪亮的头发,有72%的人认为头发没有光泽不具吸引力。
凯琳莫尔还说:“男人喜欢柔软、自然、能抚摸的发型胜过漂亮的新娘的外貌,鲜为人知的是这种长长的小波浪和光滑的长发通常是人们渴求的。”
现在女人都是用改进了的吹风机,用拉直器和发夹这些美发工具都能达到这个效果。
男人们应该高兴了,利用新科技意味着比以前做这些发型更容易了,要不然他们还得花上好长时间等着心上人打理头发。
有一半的男人也奇怪,他们说更喜欢女孩披着长发,而不是盘在头上的那种。
有3000位男性参与了调查,其它的发型还有冬菇头,最近凯蒂·霍尔姆斯梳的就是这种发型,还有就是60年代的蜂窝头,演员兼模特碧姬-芭铎的发型。
