#QVCRedCarpet Get the Look with Sarah Potempa

by on ‎03-06-2014 12:38 AM

The QVC Red Carpet Event was filled with so much glam from the designers to makeup to the celebrities and of course, the hair! I was honored to have the opportunity to style all the hair for the models and Courtney Cason for the evening.


The inspiration for the hair looks came from the gorgeous styles of iconic old Hollywood. This included vintage soft waves, deep side parts, faux bobs and sleek updos, all with a hint of sparkle. Here are some of our behind the scenes photos from the event and tips on how to get the looks:


 


Get the Look: Soft Vintage Waves


Beachwave your hair and pin into a set


Allow to cool and remove clips


Brush with an On Set Styling Brush to soften curls


Add some sparkle with a headband





 


 


Get the Look: Glamorous Updo


Create a bun with a Wrap Up or Half Up


(Add more than one bun for a more elaborate updo)


Place in the headband


Hairspray




 




 


Get the Look: Faux Bob


Pull hair through wrap up


Roll under to create a faux bob


Use bobby pins to pin into place


Hairspray





 


Get the Look: Braided Top Knot


Beachwave hair


Braid up the back of the head


Wrap Up hair into bun


Pin braid around bun


Add headband
