The Look: 

Wella Professionals stylist, Gavin Harwin met with Lorde to discuss looks and she had an idea he ran with. “Taking the idea of a bound horse’s tail, I wanted to make the most of all the hair Lorde has while keeping it cool and modern.”

Step-by-Step Styling:

1.       Starting with damp hair, spray Wella Professionals LuxeOil Leave In Conditioning Spray from root to tip.

2.       Create a strict side part and blow dry with round brush.

3.       Apply a dime size amount of Wella Professionals LuxeOil Elixir to mid-lengths and ends.

4.       Use a flat iron section by section to amplify shine and sleekness.

5.       Tightly tie hair at the nape of neck, wrapping the first three inches securely in 3/4 inch elastic band.

6.       Spread a generous amount of Wella Professionals LuxeOil Elixir through the ponytail to create super high shine.

7.       Finally, set the look with Wella Professionals Stay Essential Finishing Spray and a last mist of Wella Professionals LuxeOil Light Oil Keratin Protection Spray to finish.

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.

Styled by Ben Skervin using Vidal Sassoon

The Look: Soft and fairytale like

The Inspiration: Ben and Keira went for a soft and pretty look – a style that was perfectly suited for one of the biggest award shows of the year. Paired perfectly with Keira’s gorgeous Chanel butterfly dress, they went for a style that is simple and right out of a fairytale. Keira’s classic and captivating hairstyle is truly timeless and was finished with a beautiful Chanel diamond feather above the bun.

Here’s how Ben created Keira’s look:

1. First prep damp hair with Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Boost & Lift Foaming Air Mousse, applying throughout the hair for lift and hold.

2 .Blow-dry the hair with a large round brush. Once hair is dry, take two square inch sections and spray each section with Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Flexible Hold Hairspray.

3. Using an inch-wide barrel curling iron, wrap the 2-inch sections of hair in a spiral down the curling iron. Slide hair off and allow to cool. Repeat this over the whole head.

4. Once the curled hair has cooled, spray Vidal Sassoon ColorFinity Dry Shampoo into the roots. Brush the hair out really well to form waves and then backcomb the roots slightly.

5. Pull hair back into a low, loose ponytail and secure it with a hair elastic. Then, twist the ponytail into a loose bun and use a combination of bobby pins and U -pins to hold the hair in place. Be sure to refine the shape of the bun with pins.

6. To finish, spray hair with Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Flexible Hold Hairspray to keep flyaways in place.
