2011 Oscars Hair: Gwyneth Paltrow


It was all about a sleek, straight, and simple hairstyle for Gwyneth Paltrow at the 2011 Oscars. Harry Josh, John Frieda International Creative Consultant, worked with Gwyneth to find a hairstyle that expressed her classic, elegant red carpet style. Says Harry, “Gwyneth was my inspiration. She never tries to impress and her sophistication comes from within--a hairstyle shouldn't overshadow that. She's always had impeccably chic personal style and I wanted her hair to reflect that on the red carpet.”

How to get the look:
Harry started with the new John Frieda Frizz-Ease 3-Day Straight (an at-home alternative to salon straightening treatments) because he wanted to give Gwyneth super smooth, shiny hair that would stay straight all night long.

Harry began blowing out her hair with a Mason Pearson brush, carefully straightening each section at a time. Next, he went over each piece with a comb and a flat iron, ensuring every hair stayed sleek.

Harry gave her a center part and combed down all stray hairs and flyaways with the new John Frieda Full Repair Flyaway Tamer, a great on-the-go styling tool that's a must-have for any red carpet. Small enough to stash in a clutch, the mascara-like wand fixes any wild hair in seconds.

This look was a little too flat for me. What do you guys think?

  1. I love this look. She is so naturally beautiful...never has to overdo it. She can pull off wearing a simple hairstyle.
