Olivia Culpo Red Carpet Red 89th Academy Awards

HAIR BY: ghd Brand Ambassador Justine Marjan

INSPIRATION: "We were inspired by the hairstyles seen on the Marchesa Fashion Show runway, particularly a hairstyle that featured a deep side part and separation around the face. We wanted to balance the feminine glam of the dress with edgy and fashion forward hair."

TIPS/TECHNIQUE:

1. Prep damp hair with TRESemmé Extra Hold Gel ($4) at the roots and use TRESemmé Keratin Smooth Shine Serum ($5) at the ends

2. Create a deep side part then use the ghd air™ hairdryer ($199) and a fine tooth comb to dry the hair forward on the face

3. Blow-dry the rest of the hair straight using a smoothing brush.

4. Spray TRESemmé Keratin Smooth Heat Protect Spray ($5) and run the ghd platinum styler ($249) through the hair from root to end

5. Separate the back section of the hair from the front and gather the back section into a low pony with a smoothing brush that has been sprayed with TRESemmé Keratin Smooth Hairspray ($5) then secure with an elastic.

6. Add the front sections to the back pony then secure with another elastic.

7. Add a Rapunzel of Sweden ponytail hair extension piece then flat iron the length of the pony with the ghd platinum styler ($249)

8. Run TRESemmé Keratin Smooth Shine Serum ($5) through the length of the pony

9. Wrap base of the pony with a velvet ribbon, then secure with a bobby pin and tuck ends in.

10. Spray toothbrush with the TRESemmé Keratin Smooth Hairspray ($5) and lightly brush the top to smooth any flyaways.
