Booksmart star and nominee Kaitlyn completed her look with a stunning half-up ‘do created by celebrity hairstylist Bobby Eliot, who used products from Suave Professionals to get the perfect style.
‘The inspiration for Kaitlyn’s Critics’ Choice Awards look was a Mario Sorrenti photo of Kate Moss for Calvin Klein in the 90’s,’ Bobby revealed.
‘The hair had an effortless, playful feel to it. We decided on the hair to go half up, as to not interfere with the delicate lace on the Dior couture gown.’
In order to achieve that ‘effortless’ glam, Bobby prepped the actress’ hair with the Suave Professionals Lavender & Almond Oil Frizz Calming Shampoo and Conditioner, before applying the Firm Control Boosting Mousse to the roots.
In order to keep Kaitlyn’s locks looking sleek and frizz-free, Bobby then applied the Suave Professionals Sleek Anti-Frizz Cream to the ends of the hair, and then used the brand’s Flexible Control Finishing Hairspray to ‘prep the hair for heat styling’.
To create some texture and movement in the hair, he used the Marcel Curling Iron, and then added the Suave Professionals Refresh & Revive Dry Shampoo to the roots. After pulling half of the hair up and into a chic knot, Bobby finished off with the Suave Professionals Sleek Anti- Frizz Cream, and the Flexible Control Finishing Hairspray for maximum hold.
