Get Halle Berry’s 2009 Oscar hairstyle for under $15!

by Amber on February 23, 2009

in events,hair products,how-tos

There were many hits and misses last night on the red carpet at the 2009 Oscars!  We all have our faves and I have to say that my breath was taken away when I saw Halle Berry.  She’s elegant, glowing, and I don’t think her Marchesa gown could have been any more beautiful.  I usually don’t do a lot of award show recaps, but  I was SHOCKED this morning when I found out Halle’s hairstyle was created using TRESemmé products for under $15!  I had to share stylist Mara Roszak’s tips on how she created Halle’s striking chignon:

  1. Apply TRESemmé Thermal Creations Straightening Gel on wet hair from roots to ends.  Blow-dry hair with a medium-sized round brush, creating movement and lift.
  2. Then, curl random sections of hair using a 1 1/4 inch curling iron, spraying each section with TRESemmé TRES TWO Ultra Fine Mist hairspray before curling.  Apply a small amount of TRESemmé  24 Hour Body Weightless Crème onto hands, rub together, and brush out curls with fingertips, giving hair body and shine.
  3. Next, pull hair into a mid-height pony, twisting it into a loose chignon, pinning as you go.   Be sure to leave out some pieces to give it an organic look.
  4. Finally, spray with TRESemmé TRES TWO Ultra Fine Mist hairspray to hold chignon.

Now that’s recessionista très chic!
