TM & Marta Walsh has got the word that celebrity hairstylist Marcus Francis worked with Evan Rachel Wood and created her hairstyle for the Los Angeles premiere of Ides of March on Tuesday, September 27th, 2011.

Beauty Inspiration: “Evan’s short hairstyle has the perfect balance of masculine and feminine. The clean silhouette of her white suit inspired me to keep the look strong yet sexy. It was the glam rock eye that added to my vision of a new take on a classic: combed out finger wave with a David Bowie twist. An effortless approach to androgynous sexy elegance.”

How to get Evan Rachel Wood’s hairdo:

“Prep damp hair with Phyto Volume Actif Spray, blow drying with your hands to manipulate volume at the roots. In the back, direct the hair down; on the sides, use your fingers to direct the hair back – keeping a piecey texture. When the hair is half dry, lightly spritz Fekkai Tousled Wave Spray to thicken the look and feel of the hair. With the end of a tail comb, make a deep side part starting at the arch of your eyebrow. Starting at the part, wrap small sections of hair using a 3/4″ curling iron. Moving toward the other eyebrow, your next row of sections will alternate the direction of the curl. This emulates an imperfect version of a finger wave. Continue this alternating curl pattern until you’ve finished the top side section. At the crown of the head, wrap the hair as you did in the beginning, alternating about 3 rows down. Use Jonathan Dirt Texturizing Paste to keep texture tight on the sides. Switching to Pantene Pro-V Restore Beautiful Lengths Smoothing Balm for the top, rake through using your fingers to break up the curls. Stretch out the curls to look like the day after it was styled. Spray with L’Oreal Elnett Hairspray for hold.”

Pantene Curly Hair Series Treatment works wonders on my dry and chemically treated hair. You don’t have to spend a lot of money for a good deep conditioner. Just head to your local drugstore.

Valentine’s Day brings thoughts of romance with your loved one or, for those not in a relationship, dreams of finding that special someone. A recent Pantene survey found that the key to finding a mate could be as easy as keeping your hair healthy.

Hallie Bowman

Pantene has a deep understanding of how women feel about their own hair from years of research and recently Pantene decided to take their curiosity to the next level and ask men how they feel about women’s hair…which led to some unexpected results.

Celebrity Stylist for Pantene, Hallie Bowman, gives you her styling tips and tricks to help achieve a gorgeous hair style that is sure to stop him in his tracks!

Steve Ward, host of VH1’s “Tough Love” and CEO of Master Matchmakers, reveals results from a recent Pantene survey and shares his expertise on attracting the opposite sex.

1. The First Things Men Notice About Women

Pantene Found:

74% of men indicated that they notice women because of their hair and 44% of men surveyed said that hair is the first thing they notice about a woman, more than her clothes (26%), legs (25%), or make-up (4%).

Steve Ward Says:

These statistics speak volumes that men actually notice beautiful, healthy hair and those women who take care of their hair are viewed as more attractive.

Hallie Bowman’s Styling Tip:

Now that we know that men actually pay close attention to your hair, donning a healthy, clean style is more important than ever. A helpful tip is to use a deep conditioning treatment once a week. Treatments can repair and restore the damage that comes along with daily styling. Pantene offers a variety of treatments designed for your specific hair type: Fine, Medium-Thick, Curly or Color-treated. The formulas are tailored to your hair structure, providing the right amount of moisture to repair strands and provide a smooth finish for beautiful, healthy hair. The guy you’re eyeing is sure to take notice!

2. The Key Elements of Attracting the Opposite Sex

Pantene Found:

Most men surveyed would be more likely to approach a woman at a bar with great hair than a woman wearing a low-cut shirt. 82% of men indicated that sexy hair is a key element to a woman’s overall sex appeal.

Steve Ward Says:

Anyone can wear a low-cut blouse, but not everyone can have great hair. These results prove that women can actually use their hair styles as a tool to attract men.

Hallie Bowman’s Styling Tip:

In my experience, men are more attracted to hair that has movement, wave and texture. Stick straight hair or super tight curls can be intimidating to men. Barrel-curled waves (or using a large barrel curling iron) work to achieve a sexier style. To sex-ify your fine/straight strands, wave-it-up. Pantene offers the Pantene Fine Triple Action Volume Mousse to vamp-up any flat style. To sex-ify your curly hair, loosen-it-up to make hair more free and touchable. Pantene offers the Pantene Curly Hair Light Conditioning Detangler to condition and soften curly hair. With the tailored systems from Pantene, every woman can achieve a sexy look that is soft to the touch.

3. What to do Before a Date

Pantene Found:

60% of men surveyed say they would rather date a woman with great hair than a woman with big breasts and 78% of men surveyed consider healthy hair to be a turn-on.

Steve Ward Says:

A good first impression goes the distance and these survey results reveal you don’t always have to go for the most revealing look on the first date. Instead of struggling to decide what outfit to wear, it may be a good idea to start to rethink your hairstyle. Hair that is healthy and well-kept immediately signals to a man that you are responsible, classy, attentive, and take pride in your appearance and these are all characteristics that men look for in women.

Hallie Bowman’s Styling Tip:

Don’t let bad hair ruin your chances of making a good first impression. Before a big date, use a deep conditioning treatment on your hair in the shower. Assuming that the majority of women color their hair, I suggest the Pantene Color Nourishing Treatment. The intense moisturizing formula really enhances your hair color’s shine and it will leave a healthy glow on your hair that won’t go unnoticed.

If volume is what you’re lacking, before your date blow-dry your hair using a mousse or spray gel to set your style. If your hair starts to fall flat during the date, give it a quick fix in the bathroom with an upside-down head shake and a mist of Pantene Fine Hair Touchable Volume Hairspray. This will create show-stopping volume for a sexy first date look.

Pantene Celebrity Stylist Danilo styled Dianna Agron’s hair for the 2011 Golden Globes. This was Danilo’s first time working with Dianna, who he called a “total sweetheart.” Congrats to Dianna for Glee’s win for Best Television Series – Comedy or Musical! See a complete step-by-step below on how to get this show stopping look.

Danilo and Dianna decided on a half-up glamour set to complement her strapless J. Mendel dress. “When you style hair for the red carpet you have to take into account that it must look good from every angle,” said Danilo. “I wanted her hair to have the ability to be undone, have movement, and be shiny, but didn’t want her to worry about it all night which is why a half-up style was the perfect choice.” Although she was out the door before he knew it, Danilo thought of the style – “It was very simple, very pretty hair that was clean, contemporary Hollywood glamour.”

The Hair Tutorial. Here’s how to re-create Dianna’s hairstyle:

1) Start with freshly-washed, towel-dried hair so it’s clean for styling.

2) Mist your hair with the Pantene Pro-V Fine Hair Heat Protection & Shine Spray for a conditioning base, and then spray the Pantene Pro-V Fine Hair Root Lifter Spray Gel on your roots to prep hair for volume on top.

3) Blow dry your hair, then use a dollop of the Pantene Pro-V Restore Beautiful Lengths Smoothing Balm to coat each section of hair before applying heat from the iron.

4) Using a medium-to-large curling iron for the glamour set, curl hair down and under before setting to cool.

5) Once hair has cooled in the set (10-15 minutes), release the curls and brush through to reveal voluminous waves.

6) Lightly spread more of the Smoothing Balm through your waves as needed to clean up the slides and tame fly-aways.

7) Part your hair to the side of your preference, smoothing hair back on each side with your fingers, and pin back with your hair pieces.

Pull the remaining hair forward, shaping hair to appear full out of the hair pieces so the waves fall in front of your shoulders for a soft, elegant look.

9) Use a finishing spray like the Pantene Pro-V Fine Hair Professional Level Style Shaping Hairspray on the front and sides of hair to lock in loose curls. Leave the back curls alone so they keep their flowing movement.

Katy Perry’s hairdo for the 2011 People’s Choice Awards. Marta Walsh as the Katy Perry hair how-to from Danilo, Pantene Celebrity Stylist who styled Katy’s hair for the 2011 People’s Choice Awards. BTW congrats Katy for winning Favorite Female Artist and Favorite Online Sensation last night. You are a total wow factor.

Danilo created a beautiful classic body set on Katy, a style that “she always loves so much.” They decided on full waves to complement her strapless Betsey Johnson dress for a “sophisticated, cutie-pie” style for the evening. Katy arrived on the scene with freshly washed, towel-dried hair so Danilo had a clean base for styling.

He first lightly misted her hair with the Pantene Pro-V Fine Hair Heat Protection & Shine Spray to wet and condition, then focused on prepping her roots for the voluminous style by spraying them with the Pantene Pro-V Fine Hair Root Lifter Spray Gel. Danilo then blew her hair out and, once dried, rubbed a small dollop of the Pantene Pro-V Restore Beautiful Lengths Smoothing Balm section-by-section before he applied heat from the curling iron. He used a medium-sized curling iron to set each section and sprayed the Pantene Pro-V Fine Hair Professional Level Style Shaping Hairspray over the set before letting it cool for five minutes. He then released her hair, brushed it gently, and “let her hair fall very full and wavy.” He parted her hair to the side with lift in the front, and left her remaining curls big and loose for the final finish.
