One of the highlights of The Teen Choice Awards Blue Carpet was what stylist Riawna Capri calls “The Red Carpet Rope Braid“ which she created for Nina Dobrev.

Capri created the unique look by blowing drying Dobrev’s hair using the KMS California FREESHAPE quick blow dry to cut down on drying time leaving more time for Capri to style to the hair. Once the hair was dry, Capri used the KMS California FREESHAPE 2-in-1 styling and finishing spray to prep the hair.
