For the SAG Awards, hairstylist Bobby Eliot styled bombshell waves for White Lotus actress Alexandra Daddario. “Alex is wearing a custom Versace gown and we wanted the hair to feel like a cross between '90s supermodel and a classic Hollywood starlet. The look is full and bouncy with smooth glossy waves,” Eliot says.
Here's how he achieved the look:
We started off with towel-dried hair. I first applied René Furterer Style Sculpting Mousse and Style Blowout Balm from roots to ends. I then sprayed thermal proteting spray on the ends of the hair for optimal protection.
Using a round brush, I blow-dried the hair for maximum root lift.
After the hair was dry, I created a deep side-part using a tail comb to get a super clean side part.
Next, I sprayed Style Finishing Spray all over the hair section by section. Using a Marcel curling iron, I crated a classic set.
When the hair was still hot, I used Velcro rollers to pin the hair up and set in place. I let the hair cool and set completely.
After the hair was completely cool, I then removed the Velcro rollers. Using my hands and fingers I started to shake out the hair creating shape and volume. I then used a Mason Pearson Brush, spraying the finishing spray directly into the bristles of the brush. I started to brush out the hair to create and form a wave in the hair. Lastly, using Style Shine Mist I misted the hair for a high-gloss, shiny finishing touch.
