TRESSES & DRESSES:
RACHEL MCADAMS OSCARS HOW-TO

The 88th Academy Awards 2016

WHO: Rachel McAdams

HAIR BY: Mark Townsend for ghd, North America

INSPIRATION: “When I saw the August Getty gown Rachel McAdams was going to wear to the Oscars, I immediately knew that her hair should be up. We both agreed on a clean and sleek look to complement the gorgeous dress.”

TIPS/TECHNIQUE: “I started by blowing her hair out straight with a mixed bristle round brush using my trusty ghd air™ hair dryer. Once the hair was fully dry, I went in with my ghd platinum™ styler and straightened her tresses section by section. This amazing flat iron features the ghd tri-zone™ technology which allows me to style hair at the optimal temperature of 365 degrees while also giving added shine.

Next, I sectioned her hair into a deep side part. I used a detangler to give her hair a shiny, almost wet look, and pulled it in the back to create a textured knot. Using French hair pins to secure the knot, I created a sleek yet imperfect shape. I finished the look by spraying hairspray all over to set the look and keep any flyaways down. The end result is classic, modern, and above all, gorgeous.”

DESIGNER: August Getty
