Get Award-winning Hair with Redken's Tracey Cunningham & Rodney Cutler!

As stars walked the red carpet at last night’s Golden Globe Awards, they showed off couture gowns with award-winning hair to match. Tracey Cunningham, Redken Creative Consultant for Color and colorist to the stars, helped Charlize Theron, Emma Stone and Sofia Vergara prepare for the awards with Redken color. If you’re looking for Cameron, Julianne or Sofia’s color, ask your colorist to use the below formula’s. If you’re looking for step-by-step’s for each color-complementing hairstyle, Rodney Cutler, Redken Brand Ambassador, tells us how to achieve each actresses’ red carpet look.

· Charlize Theron: Tracey applied Redken Blonde Dimensions, added some lowlights with Shades EQ Cream and finished with Shades EQ Conditioning Color Gloss to create a beautiful blonde look.

“The key to achieving this low 1920’s inspired look is maintaining the natural texture to allow the beautiful blonde highlights to really pop. It is flatter on top, making the retro look overall more modern and sophisticated. The style also needs to complement the headpiece, and the hairband look was definitely a trend at the show this year.”

-Rodney Cutler

To achieve a similar look, Rodney recommends following the below steps:

1. Set the hair in a traditional barrel roll with a 1.5 inch curling iron, using Redken spray starch 15 to prep, and then brush it out with a flat brush so that it creates a airy finish.

2. Create a fold at the back that is rolled into itself and secure with pins. The key is that it is up and away from the shoulder and off set to one side which balances off the neckline and adds softness around the shoulders.

3. For hold but to maintain the texturized matte finish, end with a light spray of Redken fashion work 12 versatile working spray.

· Emma Stone: Tracey applied Redken Shades EQ Cream to achieve rich, radiant color and stunning shine without the major commitment of a permanent color service.

“Emma’s style was a similar shape to Charlize’s, a simple off-center texturized updo that was flatter on top, but with a low side part to add drama and give a more deliberate feel.”

-Rodney Cutler

To achieve a similar look, Rodney recommends following the below steps:

1. Blow-dry hair with satin wear 02 ultimate blow-dry lotion using a flat brush.

2. Create a deep low side part and secure hair into a simple pony tail up at the back and off center opposite of the part, ensuring it’s not too tight to allow for natural texture.

3. Roll the back into a twist, folding the back up into itself and off to one side. Use Redken wax blast 10 texturizing spray wax on bangs and finished style for texture and a soft matte finish.

· Sofia Vergara: Tracey applied Redken Blonde Dimensions and finished with Shades EQ Gloss to create a stunning ombre effect.

“Sofia’s look was a classic example of styling hair as the ultimate compliment to the color, as you can clearly see the beautiful gradation of color from dark to light for a very modern overall look.”

-Rodney Cutler

To achieve a similar look, Rodney recommends following the below steps:

1. Blow dry with a flat round brush, using a mix of Redken sheer straight 06 and NEW Redken All Soft Argan-6 Multi-Care Oil.

2. Finish with a flat iron concentrating on the mid lengths to the ends.

· NEW Shades EQ Cream is Redken’s latest salon haircolor featuring a creamy, conditioning formula with pomegranate oil and rice protein. Even if you already love your natural hue, try clear Shades EQ Cream for a gorgeous shine.

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
