If there’s one thing actress-comedian-podcaster Mary Beth Barone is going to do, it’s slay. As the official red carpet host for this year’s Golden Globes, we truly expected nothing less. It’s simply her nature. That said, working with celebrity hairstylist Brian Fisher, her hair was especially good.
Fisher tells The Tease, “For her first time hosting the Golden Globes red carpet, Mary Beth chose a vintage Todd Oldham dress from 1994. As a team, we pulled classic references from Liv Tyler, Cindy Crawford, and Helena Christensen, ultimately landing on a deep side part with hair falling nearly over one eye.” And Fisher had Barone’s hair tucked behind the ear on the side of her face seen on camera. Genius!
He adds, “The goal was to create a modern wave that could carry her through the entire evening — even if it unraveled slightly while still nodding to timeless Hollywood glamour.” Mission accomplished.
Read on for a detailed breakdown of the look directly from Fisher.
Get the Look:
- “On damp hair, I applied Kérastase Mousse Bouffante liberally through the roots and Kérastase Nectar Thermique throughout the lengths for heat protection and softness. These served as the foundation products.
- I created the deep side part and allowed the hair to fall as naturally as possible from the crown, then blow-dried smooth in sections using a Mason Pearson brush.
- The bangs were lightly round-brushed and set to the side with a flat clip to establish the shape.
- For added length and fullness, I placed two heavy wefts in the back and one super-skinny weft on each side, making sure each piece laid as flat and seamless as possible.
- Before heat styling, I applied Oribe Impermeable Anti-Humidity Spray to protect the hair and ensure longevity.
- Using the ghd Chronos Max, I waved the hair in sections, randomizing the pattern throughout. On the heavier side of the part, I curled everything forward for a subtle nod to old Hollywood glamour.
- To finish, I used shu uemura Moya Hair Spray for hold and Essence Absolue oil for shine, polish, and movement.”
