Golden Globes 2015 – Claire Danes

Claire Danes at the 2015 Golden Globes (Nominated for Best Actress)

Styled by Peter Butler using Vidal Sassoon

The Look: Soft and simple elegance

The Inspiration: Peter and Claire went for a simple yet elegant look. Careful as to not distract from her modern Valentino dress, Claire knew they wanted to create a glamorous yet wearable look. Claire’s elegant and captivating hairstyle is truly timeless and complements her Valentino feathered dress with a low collar. The hair look is soft and wearable, and is the perfect elegant complement to her stunning dress.

Here’s how Peter created Claire’s look:

1.Starting with her natural, low side-part, Peter blow-dried hair used the Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Boost & Lift Foaming Air Mousse, applying throughout the hair for lift and hold.

2.Using a 3-inch barrel curl, set the hair section by section and curl.

3.Pull hair back into a ponytail and secure it using a hair elastic.

4.Start twisting hair clockwise around the base of the elastic, into a pretzel-like shape. Once all of the ends are tucked in, secure the low chignon with 2-3 large bobby pins.

5.Be sure that around the edges of the face, bits and pieces of the hair fall away to create a moveable structure.

6.To finish, spray hair with Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Flexible Hold Hairspray to give the look movable hold.
