Have you seen "Julie & Julie" yet? It's about a food blogger who basically stalks Julia Childs (who was said to be annoyed before her passing) and decides to try every 524 recipes in Julia's cookbook "Mastering the Art of French Cooking" in 365 days! The fabulous Amy Adams plays the food obsessed Julie (with Meryl Streep as Julia Child). We asked Matrix celebrity hairdresser, Mark Townsend, how he created Amy's looks from coast to coast on the red carpet! He tells us he wanted Amy's hair to be modern and glamorous to match her Carolina Herrera gown for the New York premiere. (Jump to read how he achieved this look!)I like her hair at the LA premiere better.
The smooth and chic style is very flattering for her gorgeous read hair and she looks 10 years younger. "For the Los Angeles screening of 'Julie & Julia,' I was inspired by beauty shots from the 80s that I've collected over the years, very Carol Alt," Townsend comments. Strangely, she does kinda resemble Carol Alt with this hair.(Jump to read his instructions for red carpet worthy hair!)
NEW YORK STYLE: "I've been very inspired lately by hairstyles from the 80s with lots of volume," said Townsend. Mark started by spraying Biolage volumatherapie Bodifying Spray Gel
HOLLYWOOD GLAM: He added Vavoom Gold Heat Blow-In Volume Protective Lotion to Amy's damp hair and blow dried it with a Mason Pearson brush, lifting the roots for some height and keeping the ends straight. To add some texture to the hair, he then rubbed Vavoom Loosely Defined Texture Cream into his hands and then raked them through Amy's hair. "I love the way it makes the hair super shiny and piece-y looking."
