Claire Danes at the 2010 MET Ball: The Hairstyle

Claire Danes looked exceptional in a strapless slate-grey gown by Christopher Bailey for Burberry, with a hair look that highlighted her elegant pale blonde color with natural-looking polished and textured waves. According to stylist Peter Butler for Moroccanoil, “the look was elegant with a luxurious rock-and-roll edge. I created a higher part than Claire usually wears to open up her face and created smooth, flowing waves that looked tousled yet sophisticated. It’s almost like a modern version of combed out beach waves with a refined texture.”

Peter Butler first applied a dry shampoo at the roots for volume, then used new argan oil-infused Moroccanoil Light to smooth and hydrate strands, reduce frizz, and help prepare and protect hair before using a curling iron. “I used Moroccanoil Light because of Claire’s fine texture and delicate pale blonde.

According to John D., ” I first prepped her slightly damp hair with Moroccanoil Hydrating Styling Cream, applying a small amount on the palm of my hand then finger-combing it throughout the hair. I used it to hydrate and protect the hair as well as helping to counteract the humidity in the air and prevent frizz. Next I did a super-clean, simple blowout using a flat bristle brush.

Rachel Weisz at the 2010 MET Ball

The stars were out at the annual Met Ball at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art, to help celebrate and raise funds for the opening of the Museum’s 2010 Costume Institute Exhibit. Between thunderstorms, the weather was humid and hair stylists were challenged to create glamorous looks that were not only beautiful but also frizz-free. Hairstylist Mark Townsend created Rachel Weisz’ hairdo for the ball.

The Hairstyle & Inspiration: “The theme of this year’s Met Ball was “American Woman,” and after seeing Rachel’s Oscar de la Renta dress I knew that we should keep her hair down and sexy.

I started by adding a few drops of Moroccanoil Treatment to her hair, to condition and strengthen it while reducing drying time. This helped ensure a shiny, healthy look. Then I blow-dried her hair with a medium-sized, round brush.

Disassembled shapes are pieced together, creating textured surfaces in crepe, leather, mesh and satin. A paired down silhouette outlines this season’s vision of streamlined abstraction.

The Hairstyle: Bob Recine for Moroccanoil created a sophisticated flawlessly finished high-ponytail to complement the minimal vision of the 2010 Max Azria collection. “Smooth, well-conditioned, hair with beautiful shine is the essence of this streamlined look,” said Recine. He used argan oil-based Moroccanoil Luminous Hair Spray to create a structure based on flexible, free-moving hold, and finished with Moroccanoil Glimmer Shine Spray to add an invisible veil of radiant, natural-looking frizz-free shine.

Carolina Herrera Collection Fall 2010

New York Fashion Week. Carolina Herrera Fall 2010. Hair by Orlando Pita @ ORLO using Moroccanoil. Master stylist Orlando Pita creates a sophisticated look that displays the instinctive elegance and modern strength of long, luxurious hair. The look emphasizes smooth, clean lines refined by the feminine allure of silky, lustrous hair. Beautifully polished strands are center parted and placed sculpturally behind the ear and flow down the back to counterpoint the varied, refined textures of the designs.

There is an alluring confidence in the women who inspired the Fall, 2010 Carolina Herrera collection. A sophisticated feminine attitude and striking details reveal an integrity to luxury. Portraits printed on silk and realized only with a closer look, embroideries have a frenetic etched quality; stones lose their reflection when covered in felt. Shades of camel are injected with Prussian blue, deep red and okra floral print. Proportion is created with volume added to the forearms of sleeves and bell shaped skirts on dresses and coats. Degradé Prince of Wales and mohair windowpane wool inject masculine charm. For evening, fluid ruffles and sculpted pleats wrap around a more constructed form; instinctive elegance.

All these Nico (Velvet Underground & Nico) inspired looks have long dramatic bangs that just barely touch the eyebrows and are longer at the sides.
