CLASSROOM: Tips to Achieve Nicole Kidman's SAG Awards Look
Last Updated (Tuesday, 02 February 2010 17:11)
Celebrity Hair Stylist David Babaii used a unique period wig for inspiration for Nicole Kidman's red carpet look for the SAG Awards. David worked with Colorist Lorri Goddard-Clark to match the various tones of ginger to Nicole's hair. Lorri created Nicole's new color while David styled the perfect texture for the classically natural "Bohemian" look he chose for this gorgeous starlet.
The Color:
Lorri Goddard-Clark matched the vintage wig selected by David Babaii by utilizing a combination of deposit-only color, her signature foil-out reverse highlighting technique and a sulfate-free glaze. Nicole's hair was transformed from a medium blonde into a rich, warm Gingered Toffee Red to enhance her azure eyes and porcelain skin.
The Style: 
- David gently towel dried the hair and sprayed Bohemian Beach Spray throughout.
- Next, he gently rough dried the hair moving his hands in various directions to create texture.
- Once dry, he fashioned a center part and divided tresses into 4 sections (sides, back crown & nape).
- Starting at the nape area, he alternated between 1" and 1 ½" ceramic curling irons, taking "V" shaped partings.
- He then wrapped hair around the inside of the barrel, holding for 10 seconds then gently releasing the curl.
- With each alternating curl, David slid his fingers up the curl to gently create a soft back combing effect and enhanced texture.
- After finishing the entire head, David used his fingers and added extra Bohemian Beach Spray to loosen the curls and highlight the richness of the hair color.
