Retro ruled the red carpet last night, with 30s, 40s and 50s glamour on display. Smooth waves and constructed pinning ushered in new, softer styles that were timelessly elegant.

How-to Get Natalie Portman’s hairstyle at Oscars 2009:
Step 1: Apply a volumizing styler to the roots, like Nexxus Root Exxtend, to add body into the hair.
Distribute a medium-hold mousse, such as Nexxus Mousse Plus, throughout hair to and maintain and support the structure of the style.
