Red Carpet Hair Trends Can Be Yours

Posted: 6/8/2011

With a little effort and the right styling products, it’s possible to re-create red carpet hairstyles anytime you want.

(NAPSI)—Awards season and the red carpet may come and go, but with a little effort, women everywhere can still re-create Hollywood-inspired hairstyles.

Suave Professionals celebrity stylist Jenny Cho offers these tips to help you get the top red carpet looks:

• Sleek and straight strands. Hip, edgy and always en vogue, celebs rocked this red carpet look to perfection this year. To get the look, take clean, dry hair and spritz with a heat protection spray. Then separate hair into 1-inch sections and flatiron. Finish with a spritz of shine spray to give strands a dose of shimmer.

• Windswept updo. As classic beauties strutted down the red carpet, many flaunted this romantic and classic hairstyle. Hair that was shampooed yesterday actually works best for updos, so use a dry shampoo to refresh hair and absorb oil.

Next, pull hair into a messy mid-level bun using bobby pins and leave some pieces loose for that windswept look. Finish off this romantic do with hair spray to control flyaways and give long-lasting hold.

• Loose and captivating curls. Effortless, loose curls were seen resting on the shoulders of Hollywood celebs this past awards season. To achieve the look, start with a shampoo and conditioner that fights frizz and defines curls. Then blow-dry with a diffuser to encourage natural curls and use a large-barrel curling iron to pump up any weak waves. Hold curls in place with a mousse.

• Style doesn’t have to cost a fortune. To re-create these looks, Cho suggests using salon-proven styling products that work as well as the top brands but cost much less, such as the new styling product line from Suave Professionals.
