Hairstylist Malcom Marquez Shares Exactly How to Recreate Doechii’s VMAs Red Carpet Look

09/14/2023

Rapper/singer Doechii continues to be that girl. Playing with extremes for the 2023 MTV VMAs, she referenced the aughts with a baseball cap, though not a “trucker,” and contrasted it with a bouncy blowout. The effect? Instantly iconic.

“Tonight Doechii went for a ‘vampy, vixen vibes’ and her makeup team went bold and dark with her makeup. To complement that look for her hair we created a soft blowout,” said celebrity hairstylist Malcolm Marquez. To create Doechii’s blowout, Malcolm used an assortment of products from the KISS Colors & Care wig & weave collection and edge collection. See below for the full step-by-step breakdown from Malcolm.

Get the Look:

  1. “After prepping the unit, I prepped Doechii’s natural hair using the KISS Colors & Care Edge Fixer in Pineapple and the KISS Colors & Care 4 in 1 Edge Brush for a smooth base.
  2. To get the right lace tone I used the KISS Colors & Care Lace Tinting Spray in Dark Brown 
  3. To reinforce the hold I used the KISS Colors & Care Lace Bond Adhesive Spray –  Ultimate Hold to melt the lace
  4. And finally to create a deeper tone at the roots finished with the KISS Root True Color in black to perfect the partings.”
