Get the SAG Awards looks!

Break out those ball gowns and airbrush tans, its awards season people!! And although few of us get to live the excitement of getting all dolled up and attending events such as the Golden Globes or SAG awards, we can certainly live vicariously through those that do. At least in the hair department, anyways. Three styles that seem to be ruling the red carpet this awards season:

1. Loose curls with movement as seen on Mila Kunis, Lea, Michele, and Julia Stiles at SAG awards 

To achieve this style, towel dry the hair, then apply a quarter size amount of GHD Fat Hair lotion throughout the hair to enhance volume. Blow dry with a medium sized round brush. When dry, take 1-2 inch sections, mist with GHD Creation spray, and using the 1" Styler create vertical curls. As you work through the hair, vary which way you turn the styler and also how fast you pull the styler through each section. This will lead to a more natural look. When cooled, run fingers through the hair to separate the curls. Spray with GHD Sea Spray to exaggerate the resulting texture, and finish with GHD Ultimate Hairspray.

2. Pulled back Pony as seen on Amy Adams  at the SAG awards-

The base for any up-style is a flawless blow out. Achieve this by towel drying the hair, applying a nickel sized amount of GHD Obedience Cream through it, and blow drying it with a medium sized round brush. When finished, pull the hair back into a ponytail and attach with an elastic. Pull a small piece of hair out and wrap it around the pony to hide the elastic. Use a bobby pin to hold that in place. Use a 1" GHD styler to smooth the ponytail and finish with a light mist of GHD Ultimate Hairspray.

3. Retro Up-Do as seen on Natalie Portman and January Jones at SAG awards

Again, towel dry the hair and apply GHD Fat Hair Lotion to build volume. For thinner hair, layer on a second application of the product. Apply GHD Obedience Cream to mid lengths and ends of the hair to diminish frizz and give a smooth blow dry. Part hair and low dry with a medium sized round brush. When dry, mist GHD Creation Spray over the entire head and run your fingers through the hair to distribute it evenly. Using the 1" styler curl the top half of the hair, pin, and let cool. Pull the back into a smooth twist and secure with booby pins. Unpin the top, use GHD Polishing serum on the ends of the hair, and incorporate into style. Finish with GHD Ultimate Hairspray.
