There’s absolutely no doubt that Ciara was high atop the Best Dressed list at last night’s 2016 ESPYs! She also absolutely nailed it in the beauty department as well—no surprise there. Cesar Ramirez was the man behind her gorgeous hair.

“For Ciara’s ESPYs ensemble, I wanted to try something different from what we’ve done in the past,” said Ramirez. He continued, “Ciara’s dress was so elegant and although I wanted a polished look, I still wanted to keep it young and fun. Once I saw the cut of her beautiful Cavalli dress, I knew I wanted to play around with a faux bob.”

Here are the steps he used to create her smoldering, faux bob:

1. Starting on dry hair, Cesar prepped Ciara’s hair for blow drying by using MIZANI Thermastrength Heat Protecting Serum. He then blew the hair out, until it gained more body.

2. Once done, Cesar began to back comb (also known as teasing) the roots—starting at the lowest section and working his way up to the crown of her hair. This technique creates a cushion of sorts, once you begin pinning up the hair.

3. Cesar then rolled up the ends of Ciara’s tresses and pinned them under to create the shape of the bob.

4. Next, Cesar brushed the top section of her hair that was not teased, over the pinned portion. This allowed her short layers to hide what’s underneath and really take the shape of a bob. Soon after, Cesar used his One Styling Flat Iron to add waves around Ciara’s face.

5. To finish, Cesar sprayed MIZANI HRM to prevent frizz throughout the night.
