Ali Larter at InStyle Hair Launch Party: Get The Look
Ali Larter at InStyle Hair Launch Party from stylist Harry Josh!
Celebrities came out last night to celebrate InStyle Hair, a new special issue on sale May 8, at a star-studded event hosted by John Frieda Root Awakening and Marchesa at the Hotel Gansevoort Penthouse.
Harry Josh, John Frieda International Creative Consultant, created a stunning red carpet look for Ali Larter.
Explains Josh: “The look I created for Ali emphasizes how naturally healthy and vibrant her hair is. I started by spritzing hair with Root Awakening Detangling Spray, then blow dried in sections using a natural bristle brush to maintain her hair’s own health and shine. I finished the look with a styling crème to add polish to her naturally sleek, full hair.”
Other celebrities in attendance included Olivia Palermo, Jennifer Esposito, Marchesa designers Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig and Shannen Doherty. With a fabulous view of Manhattan from the Gansevoort Penthouse, guests enjoyed an exclusive showcase of Marchesa gowns complemented by John Frieda hair looks. In addition, partygoers were treated to stylish pampering at John Frieda touchup stations.
Oscar Blandi & Mark Townsend Get Stars Glam For The 2009 Costume Institute Gala
Celebrity Hairdressers Oscar Blandi & Mark Townsend get Hollywood’s biggest stars glam for the 2009 Costume Institute Gala.
Calvin Klein (styled by Oscar Blandi, wearing Calvin Klein Collection).
With Brooke’s hair, Oscar wanted to keep it very clean. “I decided to give her curls and keep them loose so that the look stayed soft.” When her hair was still wet, he applied his Volumizing Spray to the root and then the Onde Wave Spray all over the hair to really lock in the curl. After drying the hair, he used both a medium and large barrel curling iron throughout. Using two different size barrels prevents the curls from all being the same size and ultimately blending together, so this way we avoid the blending and create more dimension. Once the curls were finished, he gently applied a small amount of Jasmine Oil on the hair to create sheen and sprayed Lacca hairspray all over.
Rosario Dawson (styled by Oscar Blandi, wearing Diane von Furstenberg)
“For Rosario, I created what I like to call an abstract chignon.” First Oscar blow dried the hair straight and then secured a low pony tail above the nape of the neck. Once the ponytail is set, you add medium and large size plastic rollers to the loose hair (again with both sizes to ensure texture throughout the hair). Then he sprayed Onde Wave Spray while setting the curl make sure the hair takes. Once he pulled out the rollers, it was easy to create a chignon with loose pieces– you just follow the curve of the hair and begin pinning sections in place with a bobby pin. Feel free to let hair hang and fall as it may and pull out pieces in the front to layer around the face. The final step was to spray the look with Lacca for hold through the night.
Ashley Olsen (styled by Matrix stylist Mark Townsend, wearing The Row)
Matrix celebrity stylist Mark Townsend recently cut Ashley’s hair into an asymmetrical bob, so for the Met Ball they wanted to leave her hair down.
