Natalie Portman, Reese Witherspoon Oscars 2011

This year for the 83nd Annual Academy Awards, four of the most sought after hairstyles seen on the red carpet were created exclusively by Fekkai stylists using Fekkai products.

Frederic Fekkai’s Didier Malige styled Best Actress, Natalie Portman. INSPIRATION: A glamorous bohemian style that’s soft, romantic, and feminine.

HOW TO:

Apply an anti-frizz product and volumizer before blow-drying the hair smooth using a round brush.

Then curl the hair using a 1” curling iron to create soft and feminine waves.

Next, create a foundation for the style by backcombing the bottom layers of the hair.

Sweep the hair to the left side of her face, securing with bobby pins.

For a finishing touch Didier used one of Natalie’s earrings as a shimmery accent piece.

Secure the look with a sheer hairspray.

Frederic Fekkai’s Renato Campora styled Presenter, Reese Witherspoon. INSPIRATION: To compliment her gown, Renato channeled a mod-60’s high ponytail over combined with the top glamour.

HOW TO:

Create the foundation for the style by applying Fekkai Coiff™ Bouffant Lifting & Texturizing Spray Gel and the Fekkai Silky Straight Ironless™ Smooth Finish Serum.

Blow-dry hair with the Fekkai Large Round Brush to enhance fullness and volume.

Divide the hair into two sections.

Using a 1 ½ curling iron create movement and volume on the bottom layer.

Tease the roots of the top section to create the volume.

Finish the look by spraying Fekkai Coiff™ Sheer Hold Hairspray to secure the silhouette and shape of the style

Duffy for Frederic Fekkai styled Presenter, Scarlett Johansson. INSPIRATION: Duffy sought to bring out ‘the real Scarlett Johansson’ by creating a young, sexy, modern shag with dry texture.

HOW TO:

Begin by applying Fekkai Advanced Full Blown Volume™ Styling Whip to towel-dried hair, working the product in from roots to ends.

Dry hair using Fekkai Classic Brush to create loose, tousled waves for the textured effect.

Apply Fekkai Full Blown Volume™ Lifting Hairspray to roots to prep the foundation

At the nape of the neck, spritz hair with Fekkai Coiff™ Océanique Tousled Wave Spray

Using a 1 ½ inch curling iron wrap 2-3 inch sections of hair around the barrel of the iron, leaving ends out. Continue to repeat this action throughout, bearing in mind the way the root falls.

Take a hairdryer with nozzle attachment and blast the root of the hair for hold and volume

Run fingers through the hair to break-up the waves.

Clamp the ends with a flat iron to flatten the curl, creating an imperfect, sleeker wave.

Finish the style with Fekkai Coiff™ Sheer Hold Hairspray to give a modern, edgy look.

Frederic Fekkai’s Adir Abergel tended to the tresses of Host, Anne Hathaway. INSPIRATION: A modern take on an Edwardian influenced style accented with a bohemian flair; a soft, loose style with beautiful shine.

HOW TO:

Begin by parting the hair down the center and apply Fekkai Advanced Full Blown Volume Styling Whip to the hair from roots ends

Blow-dry the hair using Fekkai Round Brush.

Next, pull hair into a low ponytail at the nape of the neck, making sure to cover the ears.

Then twist the ponytail into a loose knot.

The key is keeping it loose for a touch of bohemian flair. It’s almost like a draping around the face with wispy pieces of hair coming out softly.

Finish the look by spraying the Fekkai Coiff™ Sheer Hold Hairspray.
