On Sunday night, February 26, at the 89th Academy Awards in Los Angeles, Emma Roberts went va-va-va-vintage, sporting bombshell, cayenne spice colored waves created by her stylist, Nikki Lee. To keep her color and style together all night, Nikki turned to ABBA Pure Performance Haircare.
"I wanted an old Hollywood style mixed with a fresh modern look so I kept the waves super soft," says Lee.
Here are Lee's steps for creating Red Carpet-worthy style on Roberts:
STEP ONE: Used ABBA Color Protect Shampoo and Conditioner after coloring to lock in color.
STEP TWO: Lightly towel dried hair and applied a mixture of ABBA Smoothing Blow Dry Lotion )and ABBA Thermal Protect Spray . "This combination of products allowed my round brush to glide through her hair nicely and gave it great shine with bounce."
STEP THREE: After the blowout, lightly sprayed ABBA Thermal Protect Spray ) again, and separated hair into the desired deep side part and divided it into three sections to set it: the back and two sides.
STEP FOUR: Wrapped small pieces around a 1” curling iron from the tip to the root on one side and secured each piece with a clip to set the curl and repeated on the other side and finished in the back, making sure the hair was curled in the same direction.
STEP FIVE: Once the hair was all set, allowed to cool for 15 minutes. Took the set out and started gently brushing with a Mason Pearson Paddle Brush throughout the whole head to create the perfect Hollywood glam.
STEP SIX: "Once I was happy with my shape I locked it in with ABBA Firm Finish Hair Spray.”
