2010 Grammy Awards Beauty: Katy Perry

newly engaged Katy Perry was an eclectic mix of old-school glam a la Bettie Page and indian elegance when she attended the 2010 Grammy awards last night.

as a compliment to an amazing makeup job (i loved her lush lashes and pink lips), celeb stylist Danilo created the the look for the Waking Up in Vegas singer. it was his desire to create a "hipper" retro pin-up girl style by keeping the hair from looking too perfect.

here's how the style was achieved:

Danilo first combed through the Pantene Pro-V Beautiful Lengths Split End Prevention Leave-in Cream to condition and ready hair for styling. while blow-drying individual sections of hair, he sprayed the Pantene Pro-V Volume Root Lifter Gel for extra lift and definition.

he then spiral set her curls with a medium curling iron for contemporary waves, tousling Katy's hair with the Pantene Pro-V Texture Hairspray to finish the look.

Danilo described her bangs as "bumper perfection" after using the Pantene Pro-V Restoratives Frizz Control Extra Strength Serum on damp hair before drying straight and creating a smooth curvature across the brow.

Jessica Alba's Undone Updo

Jessica Alba was at Sundance last week to attend the premiere of her film, The Killer Inside Me, and Fekkai stylist Renato Campora made sure she looked fabulous for her night out.

i have to say i love Jessica Alba's hair all pulled out of her face. it's a gorgeous one! plus with the heavy collar of her coat and sweater, it would have been too much to have left her hair down, in my opinion.

here's how Campora styled Jessica's hair:

before blowing her hair dry, Campora used Fekkai Coiff Strong Hold Volume Mousse on hair while it was damp. for the blow dry, he only used his fingers in order to create texture.

next, he wrapped hair around a hair stick to the back of the head and locked it into place. after diffusing the hair at the roots and letting it set for 10 minutes, he took the stick out and applied Fekkai Au Naturel Dry Shampoo. again using his fingers, Campora created more texture at the roots by tousling the hair.

finally, he created a messy bun and secured it using bobby pins and added an elastic headband to give a fresh, defined look. to finish the look, he sprayed Fekkai Sheer Hold Hairspray to set the style.

Fekkai products can be found online and in Sephora stores as well as fekkai.com
