Oscar Hair By CJ

It seems that this year anything goes in the hair department. Wavy, straight, up down stylish and plain. My favorite was Natalie Portman with a very retro wavy updo. It was classic and pretty and allowed the dress and gorgeous diamond studs to shine. If you want to recreate it at home you will need to be quite good at styling. The easiest way to do it is to: First apply a gel styling product like Redken 6 Shine Curls, scrunch and blowdry then once it’s dry pull the hair back off the face in a banana clip at the back of the head. Then place wavy hair around and over the clip to hide it, securing the hair with bobby pins. Style the top and bang up and back off the face and spray for hold with Redken 18 Quick Dry.

Another pretty style was Amanda Seyfried who had luscious locks and beautiful blonde color. I love how the color gets brighter on the ends. Her style was soft and very easy to create. Using a far side part blowdry hair after applying a styling creme like Redken 12 Align and Spray Shine. Be sure to leave the top hair smooth and laying to the head shape. Use a round brush with a medium size and blowdry in vertical sections around the head. When each sectionis almost dry take the lengths of the hair and wrap them around the metal round brush and heat it up using it like a roller. Heat it then cool it, drop the curl out slowly and carefully then spray each section with Redken hairspray 18 Quickdry. Gorgeous!

Amy Adams hair was smooth and pulled back in a low bun that was simple and chic. The bun was off to the side and she had a far side part that helped to modernize the look a bit.

Viola and Taraji were wearing short styles that were down and sassy. I love that Taraji had a modern haircut with lots of shine and layers. You will need a great hair cutter to create this look. Another style with a side part and asymmetry. Viola’s hair also had a far side part, which seamed to be the one theme that was consistent at the show. She added in vertical curls with lots of shine and hold. I’d recommend using Redken Shine Spray and Quick Dry Hairspray 18. Hope you have fun creating these looks at home! If you need any help looking fabulous you can always come to see me. Thank you CJ Burkey
