Rock the Look: Gwyneth Paltrow at 2011 Grammy's

Tuesday, February 15, 2011




The 53rd Annual Grammy Awards took center stage with Gwyneth Paltrow's "Wild Bohemian" look created by celebrity hairstylist David Babaii. This might just be my own opinion, but I don't think Gwyneth can look "wild", no matter how hard she tries. Even with the "wild bohemian" hair, wild Christian Louboutin Futura multi-colored stiletto bootie Christian Louboutin Heels (which are to DIE for), and the wild pink earrings, she didn't look WILD to me. Cee-lo was WILD, extra WILD but Gwen? No.


To achieve the look, David Babaii always starts with clean fresh hair. The clean canvas theory remains his mantra for every red carpet look. David began by applying Couture Colour Pequi Oil Treatment and gently massaging into the hair. The Pequi Oil Treatment is used prior to blow drying to deliver silky and shiny hair. With the IT&LY HAIRFASHION Ionic Blow Dryer, David rough dried the hair for texture and volume. Next, he created a center part and began taking random sections wrapping only the center portion of some of the strands (leaving the top and ends free) around a 1" curling iron. Alternating stands were wrapped around the curling iron, leaving only the very tips free. This was done to create uneven curl patterns. Once the strand cooled, David ran his fingers up the strand creating a "fanning effect". To finish, he added additional Couture Colur Pequi Oil Treatment to his hands and tousled the waves for added volume, texture and hold.

The Christian Louboutin Futura multi-colored stiletto bootie is to DIE for, no?
