More from the 2015 Golden Globes: Celebrity Hairstylist and ghd Brand Ambasador David Babaii


 



WHO: Kate Hudson

HAIR BY: David Babaii, Brand Ambassador for ghd, North America

INSPIRATION: “I wanted to create a modern day chignon. It’s a look that works well on everyone, no matter if you have straight or curly hair. It’s clean and chic, and is the perfect classic style.”

TIPS/TECHNIQUE: “To create this look, I used the ghd eclipse™. I love this flat iron because it features ghd’s patented tri-zone™ technology with three heat sensors that keep the temperature at 365 degrees - optimal for styling. The ghd eclipse™ leaves hair looking incredibly shiny, sleek and smooth. First, blow dry hair using the ghd air™ hairdryer and a round brush. Part hair down the middle, then divide into 3 sections: two in the front and one in the back. Starting at the back of the head and working forward, take 1 – 1 1/2 inch sections and straighten the hair with the ghd eclipse™. Pull hair into a tight bun on the back of your head. Use bobby pins to secure.”

PRODUCTS: ghd air™ hairdryer ($225); ghd eclipse™ ($245)

WHO: Gwyneth Paltrow

HAIR BY: David Babaii, Brand Ambassador for ghd, North America

INSPIRATION: “A 70’s Playboy Bunny, with glamorously chic waves. Gwyneth is known for her iconic straight hair, but for tonight’s Golden Globe's we aimed to mix it up and have a little fun - like nothing you have seen before.”

TIPS/TECHNIQUE: “Blow dry hair using the ghd air™ hairdryer and a round brush. Create an off-center part and divide into 3 sections: two in the front and one in the back. Starting at the back and working forward, take different sized sections and curl hair using the ghd curve™ soft curl iron. The 1.25” barrel creates voluminous, soft polished waves. After each piece, release the curl and stretch it out for 2-3 seconds. Continue all the way to the top alternating the direction of the curl. With ghd’s patented tri-zone™ technology, I was able to create this style in less than 30 minutes for hair that will stay shiny and smooth all night. For the top sections, don’t curl the hair all the way to the root, only the bottom half of the shaft. To finish, apply dime-sized amount of ghd Smooth & Finish Serum to the hands and run through the hair, then brush out the hair with a wide tooth comb to loosen the waves.

PRODUCTS: ghd air™ hairdryer ($225), ghd curve™ soft curl iron ($245) and ghd Smooth & Finish Serum ($28)

DRESS: Michael Kors

WHO: Katherine Heigl

HAIR BY: David Babaii, Brand Ambassador for ghd, North America

INSPIRATION: “I call this hairstyle ‘California Chic.’ I wanted the look to be soft and smooth, but with a hint of naughtiness.”

TIPS/TECHNIQUE: "First blow dry hair using the ghd air™ hairdryer and a round brush. Then part the hair down the middle and divide into 3 sections: two in the front and one in the back. Starting at the back and working forward, take different sized sections and curl hair using the ghd curve™ creative curl wand, the size of the barrel creates the looser shape needed for this look. After each piece, release the curl and stretch it out for 2-3 seconds. Continue all the way to the top alternating the direction of the curl. ghd’s patented tri-zone™ technology styles the hair in less time and creates long lasting curls without having to use a bunch of styling products. For the top sections, don’t curl the hair all the way to the root, only the bottom half of the shaft - this prevents the Shirley Temple tendrils. Finish the look by pulling front sections of hair behind the ear.”

PRODUCTS: ghd air™ hairdryer ($225); ghd curve™ creative curl wand ($245)
