What a show last night! Its so much fun to watch the Oscars, but the best part for me is the red carpet before the show starts. The gowns, the jewels, the accessories, and most importantly....the hair! Nothing is better than talking hair, so any comments or questions you have please post and we'll get some good discussion going.
Earlier this year at the Golden Globes we saw a new trend in hair start and continue last night at the Oscars as well. Its the up pony/bun. Many lovely ladies last night were wearing it this way. The first one I saw was Miley Cyrus. She had her hair in a pony sort of casually pulled up into a half bun half updo and it looked awesome! An easy alternative for this look at home would be the Jon Renau Mimic hairpiece. Anne Hathaway used this look, but had hers pulled up higher and tighter for beautiful look that was a little more conservative but classic at the same time. Another Disney star, Vanessa Hudgens, went with a younger version of the up-pony, pulled up just loosely enough to keep it form looking like a bun. These styles can also be referred to as the half twist pony. You can have this look at home by getting some simple clip-in extensions and pulling your hair up about half way in the back, then tease the underneath part before you put the extensions in. After you've teased and put the extensions in simply pull it all up as high or low as you want and fasten with a hair pin.
There were some outstanding ponytails as well. Giuliana Rancic, the E! anchor, had her hair swept back loosely on the sides into a beautiful full pony. One of my favorites was Marisa Tomei, she had a kind of half swept back loose pony, a very easy look to duplicate with the Raquel Welch Updo Curls. The Most gorgeous pony of the night though, had to belong to Beyonce Knowles. Pulled back in a sleek straight pony her hair looked stunning. This is easier to do than you think. I don't know how exactly she did it, but to replicate it all you have to do is put your own hair in a pony, add a pony piece, then wrap your half of your own hair in the pony up around where the piece attaches to hide it and you have an elegant classic pony in minuets.
Although new trends were all over there were some mainstays as well. The best bun of the night belonged to Penelope Cruz. Very tight an elegant she put up all that long beautiful hair and came out looking great. The classic updo was seen as well, but no one worn it better than Meryl Streep. Put up high and no too tight her hair was as beautifully styled as any. Hedi Klum was in a stunning red dress with a straight, sleek mid-length bob. While Sarah Jessica Parker was hair down with loads of soft curls. Angelina Jolie showed up with Brad Pitt looking lovely as always with her hair gently pulled back on the sides and in front, and down in back with lots of curls. For this look try Seductive by Jon Renau. The show stopper though was Kate Winslet. Sporting a "molded" look all over that was sculpted underneath in back and looked very 50's Hollywood.
