Yes, I know, I know...the Met Ball was so last week but I couldn't let another day go by without writing about my favorite looks. Not only are these women I adore, they happened to rock some serious style for the "Punk: Chaos to Couture" themed night. THEN I learned that their gorgeous locks were styled by my favorite Eco inspired hair product line, Davines, I couldn't help but share with you.
Miranda Kerr/David Keough
Fist and foremost, Miranda wore a to die for cutout Michael
Kors gown. Going for glamour, the entire look fit her well.
With two braids on the side that wrapped around and tucked
underneath the nape of the neck, she looked sexy as could be.
Hot To Get The Look:
While hair is wet, create a deep side part.
Use Davines for Wizards No. 8 Quick Setting Hard Gel
throughout the hair to create a solid hold.
On the side opposite the direction of the part,
create two sections and french braid each section
parallel to one another, wrapping them down around the head.
Tapering down to the nape, tie them off and tuck and tuck them under the rest of the hair.
Apply quite a bit of the gel mixed with the
Davines for Wizards No. 3 Universal Mattering Mouse
throughout the rest of the hair as it creates longevity for keeping the looks.
With the remaining unbraided hair,
blow dry with a round brush.
Using a one inch curing iron, separate and cure large sections.
Pin them up and let hair cool down.
Pull the hair out and spray roots with of bit of
Davines for Wizards No. 14 Sea Salt Primer for a bit of a lift and blow dry a touch.
Finish off with Davines Defining Invisible Hair Spray to lock the look in.
Elizabeth Banks/Matthew Monzon
Talk about rocker sexy.
Those Brian Atwood shoes,
that Versace gold chain dress screams drama.
An utter look of perfection with a sculptural hair style to match.
How To Get The Look:
Spray a generous amount of Davines Melu Shiel onto damp hair.
Follow by putting a healthy amount of
Davines for Wizards No. 3 Universal Mattering Mousse
throughout the hair along with a
few pumps of Davines OI/OIL on the ends.
Blow dry with a big paddle brush to maintain
the sleek straightness, avoiding any "bend". Add extensions, if desired.
Create a masculine, sleek square look in the front.
Once the squareness is established,
pull hair into a ponytail at the crown of the head.
Do this by first focusing on pulling hair from the nape, then the sides, and lastly the top.
Secure with a bungee band and take a 1/4 inch of hair and wrap it around to hide the band.
Use 3x2 1/2 inch goody barrettes and secure the ponytail
at the nape of the neck, holding the ponytail to the head,
which gives a good, strong, structural shape.
And there you have it, uber glam style using products that make your hair feel luxurious and sexy without the harsh feel. Great for your hair, wonderful for the environment. Matched with great style, gorgeous women, a beautiful gala, it's pretty much a match made in heaven.
Enjoy!
