Beauty Bomb: Nina Dobrev’s 2017 Vanity Fair Oscar Party Edgy Bob, Styled by Riawna Capri

If you’re wearing a sheer Dior gown to one of the biggest parties of the year, then your hair has to be just as cool as your dress. Case in point: Nina Dobrev at the 2017 Vanity Fair Oscar Party. Her edgy bob was the perfect complement to her frock from the iconic French fashion house—dry-cut by famed stylist Riawna Capri. She used a texturizing technique to maintain a blunt perimeter.

Here, the step-by-step details to recreate Nina’s gorgeous look:

1. Wash your hair with a volumizing shampoo & conditioner duo to enhance your hair texture.

2. Prep your hair with a heat protectant that won’t weigh it down, as well as a primer to create a foundation to keep the style in place.

3. Rough dry your hair to boost its natural texture and volume.

4. Once dry, separate your hair into three sections. Then, begin curling your hair from the bottom— gradually changing the iron size from the smallest (.75″) to medium (1″) to large (1.25″) as you make your way towards the top layer.

5. Shake out your curls and set them into place using a flexible hold spray. And Riawna’s pro tip? “Volumizing products and creating a base of tight curls helps to create that really big and full look.”

Beauty Bomb: Taraji P. Henson’s 89th Annual Academy Awards Old Hollywood Bob

Taraji P. Henson was one of our most popular looks at the 89th Annual Academy Awards. And you saw why right? Her Alberta Ferretti gown was perfectly complemented by her glamorous bob—an ode to Old Hollywood icons like Diahann Carroll and Dorothy Dandridge.

Here, all the steps to get her gorgeous tresses by famed stylist Tym Wallace:

1. First, prep your hair using an anti-dandruff shampoo & conditioner, to alleviate any scalp dryness and itch but keep your hair soft, nourished, and manageable. When you’re wearing midnight sapphire like Taraji, you don’t want anything distracting from the gorgeous shade of your gown!

2. Once your hair is cleansed, spray a leave-in detangler on 2-inch sections of your hair before blowing them dry with a blow dryer.

3. Emulsify two to three pumps of a cream serum in your hands and distribute it evenly throughout your hair, before using a jumbo barrel curling iron to create pin curls. Then, set your hair with velcro rollers to lock-in the curl memory.

4. After your curls are set, take them down and use a tried-and-true Mason Pearson brush through the roller set. Then, use your fingers to set the look in place before liberally spraying with hold hairspray.

Beauty Crush Wednesday: Ashley Graham

Bold, buxom and beautiful, this supermodel has caused a cataclysmic shift in the fashion world of waif thin girls.  Blazing the catwalks with her sexy stride to coaching and grooming aspiring models as a judge on the reboot of America’s Next Top Model, Ashley Graham has us all wanting to know more, especially how she manages to look so flawless all the time.

The gorgeous brunette loves to show off her cascading mane, often worn out and full of loose curls and bounce.  But who doesn’t love a good ponytail every now and then, especially when your bone structure is as amazing as hers?

As for makeup, Ashley usually highlights her beautifully tanned skin with natural looks.  Subtle eye-shadow and nude lips are her niche.  But when she vamps it up…

 …she adores a good smokey-eye or a brooding red shade to accentuate her full lips.

 Obvious pulchritude aside, Ashley has been slaying the game for years, but after her Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue 2016 cover, she became one of the driving forces behind the conversation of diversity in fashion and of curvier women needing to own their sexiness and confidence.  And with her countless lingerie shoots and swimsuit line, it’s safe to say she’s owning hers.

 So here’s to you, Ashley Graham!  An advocate for body positivity and a woman who isn’t afraid to stand confidently in her curves without being defined by any beauty standards but her own.
