Beauty Bomb: Ciara’s 2016 CFDA Awards Boho Waves, Styled by Cesar Ramirez

Ciara was easily one of the best dressed at the 2016 CFDA Awards! Her blush pink Roberto Cavalli dress was so chic—stylist to the stars Cesar Ramirez used its bohemian-inspired vibe as the starting point for her free-flowing waves.

“I was really inspired by the bohemian feel of Ciara’s Cavalli dress,” said Ramirez. “I also wanted the hair to match the bohemian look, so I kept it soft and just added a different texture then our usual styles.” Here are the steps to recreate her look:

1. Cesar started on dry hair and parted it in four sections. He then lightly sprayed $17 MIZANI HRM Humidity Resistant Mist on each section.

2. Next, he braided each section and flat ironed the braid. This created texture and a slight wave.

3. Once Cesar had the texture he wanted, he then tucked and pinned each side behind each ear—leaving a small section of hair in front of each ear.

4. To set the look, he added more HRM spray for a light hold.
