Actress Danielle Pinnock has made a career of stealing the spotlight, and her appearance at the Sergio Hudson FW26 show was no exception. Working with celebrity hairstylist Monaè Everett, the “Ghosts” star’s hair was set in a sculpted bob that was giving main character energy.
Everett tells The Tease, “The vision was bold structure with glamour and height that would hold under front-row photography while still framing her face beautifully.” She adds, “I wanted the hair to feel as powerful as the room she was walking into. [Her character] Alberta is bold and commanding on Ghosts, and I wanted that same confidence translated into structure and height. The sculpted S-wave gave vintage glamour, but the sharp bob kept it modern. It was about owning space without saying a word.”
Read on for a detailed breakdown directly from Everett, featuring the exact techniques and products she used to create this stunning hairstyle.
Get the Look:
- “I began by cutting the hair into a precise chin-length bob. Clean structure is essential when you’re building height. If the base isn’t strong, the style won’t hold.
- I applied Oribe Grandiose Hair Plumping Mousse at the roots for density and lift. Then I layered Oribe Royal Blowout Heat Styling Spray for smoothness and protection. I blow-dried with tension and beveled the ends under using a flat iron to sculpt the bob shape.
- I sectioned out the crown area. This is where the drama lives. Clean sectioning allows you to build height without disturbing the perimeter.
- Using a 1-inch curling iron, I created on-base curls in a diagonal brick-lay pattern through the crown.This prevents visible gaps and builds internal support. Each curl was clipped and allowed to cool completely to lock in longevity.
- While the crown cooled, I backcombed the remaining sections using a Denman Backcomber, focusing at the base and mid-shaft while leaving the ends free. This keeps the style soft instead of stiff.
- I brushed the bob down with a Denman Finisher Brush to smooth the surface without collapsing the support underneath.
- After releasing the cooled crown curls, I gently backcombed them and sculpted a tall S-wave pinned on the right side to create asymmetry and a strong silhouette.
- I finished with göt2b Blasting Freeze Spray to lock the structure in place while maintaining shine. This look balances vintage influence with modern structure. It’s bold but polished — perfect for front-row fashion energy.”
