Emmys 2010 Beauty: Anna Paquin

Stylist Renato Campora created Anna Paquin's chic updo at the 2010 Emmys. The inspiration? A soft yet glamorous look to compliment her dress by Alexander McQueen.

Here's how to get the look:


On wet hair, Renato applied the Fekkai Full Blown Volume™ Styling Whip to the roots and the Fekkai Coiff™ Perfecteur Anti-Frizz Silkening Crème. 

Once dried, he used a  ½ inch curling iron and set the hair in pin curls.  After 15 minutes, Campora removed the curls and ran his fingers through the hair to loosen and create shape.  

Next, he pulled the hair back into a high French twist, revealing the nape of her neck, and secured with bobby pins.  

To create volume, Campora loosened the hair at the crown of her head, resulting in a softer, yet ultimately glamorous style.  He finished the look with Fekkai Advanced Sheer Hold Hairspray.

Fekkai products are available at Frederic Fekkai salons, Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue and Fekkai.com.

I don't love Anna's blonde hue (never did, though I do understand it's for her role as Sookie), but I'm loving this 'do. What say you?
