It's much more than just a hair flip (that would be too Bieberesque) - it's a hair whip. Apparently it's quite hard to master, because there are instructions how to do it properly. If you don't feel like reading (and really - who ever does these days?), then just take some pointers from the women who have done it rightThe supermodel spawn of Keith Richards and Patti Hansen, the uber cool Theodora RichardsI don't know about y'all, but whenever I'm nude from the waist down in the middle of a meadow, I love whipping my hairJane Birkin, who possessed the most lusted-after locks of the sixties, put her enviable head of hair to good useThe lovely Lauren Hutton in the pages of Vogue during the sixtiesAmanda Seyfried is cleverly masked behind her cascade of blonde curlsDakota Fanning tries her hand (or head, more precisely) at the whipLike Theodora Richards, Georgia May Jagger is the daughter of a Rolling Stone (care to guess which one?) and his supermodel spouse (his former wife Jerry Hall)Kate Moss whips and flips effectively in her Topshop campaignShe's portrayed Brigitte Bardot and been the Marianne of France, but Laetitia Casta faced her most difficult challenge of her career when she was asked to whip back and forthThe fashion house Lanvin certainly knows what the modern day woman wants - ferocious dresses and headbanging good fun - as revealed in their Spring 2011 campaignA beautiful photograph by Lina ScheyniusPatti Hansen, alongside her then-beau Keith Richards, attending one of Bebe Buell's concertsA strikingly non-short haired Twiggy, captured by Richard Avedon, in one of my favorite photographs everA young Jane Fonda does her best bombshell impressionA Janis Joplin-inspired shoot for Fashion Rocks MagazineI was on the search for the "unbelievable" (according to a Facebook group dedicated to it) hair flip made by Gaga in the "Video Phone" video. Alas, I could not find an image. But, as you can see, Gaga hair tosses are not an uncommon phenomenon. The lovely Jane Birkin, in the book Birds of BritainGossip Girl starlet Leighton Meester (with locks like that, is it any surprise she's a spokesmodel for Herbal Essences?) Ann-Margret shows off her moves - and catches the eye of all the fellahs - in Bye Bye BirdieThe woman nine-year-old who started it all: Willow 
I love this dreamy video of Lily Donaldson, captured by her father, photographer Matthew Donaldson. A two-second, 360 degree hair spin is slowed down to a hypnotic degree, turning the brief moment into a 1,000-frames-per-second work of art.
