Golden Globe Hair Inspiration

I often look to celebrities as inspiration for wedding and special event hair styling and make-up ideas. I recommend that my clients also look at red carpet type styles to inspire themselves. These styles are often more flattering and less contrived than styles seen in “hair” or “wedding” magazines. In the same way that celebrities frequently chose the bronzed cheek/smoky-eye/light lip look in 2009, we are still seeing this make-up trend holding strong for special events in 2010. The main hair trends that were seen are as listed:

1) Wavy not curly. The celebs are opting for a softer looker look for updo’s and downdo’s alike.
2) Off center. Many of the styles were side buns or side ponytails.
3) Pump up the volume. Whether worn up or down, the majority of hair styles had volume through the crown area.
4) Frame the face. When the styles were worn half up or completely up the stars often chose to leave some soft, face framing pieces out.

If you want inspiration for yourself, just Google image search your favorite celeb and “red carpet.” Happy searching!
