YEAR OF THE SNAKE
Anne Hathaway came away a winner at the 19th annual Golden Globes for her portrayal as Fantine in Les Miserables. Her look was equally award-winning. She appeared effortlessly glamorous in a sheer black Giambattista Valli Haute Couture gown, and swept up pixie created by Fekkai stylist Adir Abergel. Her look was finished with Chanel makeup and a raspberry toned lip by makeup artist Kate Lee, and white hot nails by L’Oreal’s Tom Bachik. See below for more info:
HAIR
Follow Adir’s tips for Solessence readers to recreate Anne’s look using Fekkai products.
1. Begin with wet hair and apply Fekkai COIFF Bouffant Lifting and Texturizing Spray Gel to roots. Create texture at your ends with Fekkai COIFF Oceanique Tousled Wave Spray.
2. Using a comb, create a deep part to your preferred side.
3. Next, dry hair with a diffuser to work with hair’s natural texture. Gently run fingers through hair and sweep it back from the face to create lift at the roots
4. Finish with a light misting of Fekkai COIFF Sheer Hold Hairspray to keep the effortless look in place all evening.
NAILS
Tom Bachik is on a run with bright white nails, and Anne Hathaway started with a base of L’Oreal in “I Will” followed by what sounds like a spontaneous raid of the makeup artist’s case – that’s where Tom found the butterfly appliques! Love the random placement and how it so delicately ties in with her gown and jewelry.

Thanks to Celebrity stylist Renato Campora and the Vidal Sassoon Pro Series for sharing the steps to get “Thirty Dark Zero” nominee Jessica Chastain’s gorgeous locks.
The Look: Classic, Hollywood Glam with a Natural Feel
Renato and Jessica went for a classic and glamorous look with a soft, natural feel. This effortless glam style evokes a Hollywood sophistication that complements her Alexander McQueen strapless gown and Harry Winston jewelry.
Here’s how Renato created Jessica’s look:
1. First start by prepping wet hair with Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Boost & Lift Foaming Air Mousse for lightweight volume.
2. Then spritz Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Heat Protect & Shine Spray to protect hair while blow-drying it.
3. Blow dry hair with a round brush until it’s dry. Then, part the hair on the side to give hair extra volume.
4. Using a 1 ½ inch curling iron, curl the ends for 10 seconds and remove for a soft wave. Once the hair cools, brush the curls out with a thin comb to soften the look.
5. To finish, spray a brush with Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Extra Firm Hold Hairspray and smooth back the hairs around the face. Finally, mist with hairspray to hold hair in place, while leaving it with lots of natural movement.
