Holly Hunter hair style secrets at the 2009 Emmy Awards

holly-hunter-hair-style-2009-emmy-awards
Outstanding Actress in a Drama Series nominee Holly Hunter is noted for her formidable mane, and her Emmy’s look was no exception as her dramatic locks once again turned heads.  Movie-star beautiful and naturally elegant, her waved hair was silky smooth and shiny, and absolutely eye-catching.

Star stylist Enzo Angileri who created the look, was inspired by the glamorous metallic sheen of her gown. He created a rich texture emphasized by intense waves, smoothness, and shine. “I wanted her to look glamorous and goddess-like,” said Angileri, “and the hair had to look luminous.”

“Holly’s hair and color is beautiful,” said Angileri, “and I wanted to bring out its deep gold and honey tones for the cameras. Shine was everything in this look since these amazing highlights wouldn’t be at all visible in hair that was not shiny enough to reflect the light — especially on camera and in photos.

debra-messing-emmy-awards-2009

Debra Messing’s head-turning look was one of the most beautiful seen at the 61st Annual Primetime Emmy Awards.

Complimenting her dramatic red Michael Kors gown, star stylist Robert Vetica created a truly inspired low, asymmetrical ponytail shaped into a free-flowing cluster of curls that resembled an elegant chignon.

“It was all about style complemented by sensuous movement and healthy, natural-looking ease,” said Vetica. “A smooth, shiny texture was the essence of the look.”

Catherine Zeta-Jones hair style secrets by David Babaii

Catherine Zeta Jones
If you missed last week’s 37th AFI Lifetime Achievement Awards, you’ll be happy that Celebrity hair stylist David Babaii was willing to share some of his well guarded hair tips and you too can use the same tips he used on Wales beauty Catherine Zeta-Jones (aka Mrs. Michael Douglas)!

>>> David Babaii reveals the techniques he used on Catherine Zeta-Jones:

1) After gently towel-drying her hair to remove excess water, I warmed a small amount of Hair Polish in the palms of my hands before applying it through the hair. I’ve found warming this product actually boosts its ability to seal the cuticle, while repairing and strengthening each strand. Not to mention the shine!

All these styles have been created by Tony Masciangelo, professional stylist for Nexxus.

I’ll take you through the different models and what Tony Masciangelo created.

Ken Paves’ and Jessica Simpson’s Hairdo gives you Hollywood Celeb hair without the high price A-list stylist!

jessica_simpson_hairdo_ken_paves_opening

I’ll admit that when I found out that Jessica Simpson used hair pieces to enhance the volume of her hair, I was fairly surprised because I thought she already had a fairly full head of hair. It’s only when I watched a few segments on the Shopping Channel, that I realized how sneaky these hair pieces, created by Jessica’s hairdresser Ken Paves, were because unless I had seen the before and after shots, I truly would never (EVER) know that was not Jessica’s hair.

Watching Ken Paves change a woman’s look and face just by adding a layer of hair is simply fascinating.

It’s true that you can easily get hair extensions if you are looking for more length or more volume or if you have thinning hair, but that option is very costly and very time consuming (it can take half a day to get extensions put in). Ken Paves offers a fast and inexpensive solution that is a great way to change your look for an evening or for the Holidays.

The 66th Golden Globe Awards might have come and gone, but getting insider’s tip on celebrity hair for sexy celebs over 35 is ALWAYS welcomed!

When I found out that Beauty Match readers would be able to get some insider’s tips created by Celebrity stylist Robert Vetica created for two gorgeous and glamorous red carpet looks for celebs Salma Hayek and Kyra Sedgwick, I knew that my readers would be excited to learn more about such a master of hair!

Personally, I was scratching my head when I saw Drew Barrymore and Renee Zellwicker on the red carpet and presenting awards.

Are European women cutting their hair as they age?

long_hair.jpg
*** Beauty Match in Paris ***

If you’ve never set foot in Italy, this might be a question that might warrant some serious consideration. But, one trip to any Italian city will quickly answer that question. Many Italian women simply decide to keep their hair very long at whatever age they are. I’m not talking about hair that touches the shoulders here, but rather hair that falls to the middle of the back. Some Italian women sport their long mane sparkled with specs of grey, while many others obviously have their favourite colourist on speed dial.
