Olivia Dean is the name on everyone’s lips right now as she continues to light up the music scene. In fact, her success showed at the Grammy Awards on Sunday, as she was crowned Best New Artist. But it wasn’t just her incredible performance that stole the show, we couldn’t stop looking at her hair…
Celebrity hairstylist Rachel Polycarpe worked with the singer-songwriter to create a high-glam look for the 68th Annual Grammy Awards. Read on to learn how to recreate the look!
The vision was a modern homage to high-glam eras where hair felt bold, feminine, and unapologetically full. Rachel sought to capture a sense of drama and movement – big volume and soft curls – while modernising the finish to feel effortless rather than over styled. The result? A look that is polished yet fluid, striking a balance between powerful texture and romantic softness.
How to Recreate Olivia Dean’s 70s Inspired Curls at the Grammy Awards
- The process began by cleansing and strengthening the hair.
- On damp hair, Rachel applied OLAPLEX No.5 Leave-In for lightweight moisture, followed by No.9 Bond Protector Nourishing Hair Serum to reinforce the hair and provide heat protection.
- The hair was blow-dried smooth to maintain movement. Rachel then worked some oil through the lengths for an extra layer of shine and protection.
- Using a curling iron, she created soft, controlled movement. For extra root lift and texture, dry shampoo was applied at the roots.
- The look was locked in with hairspray and a light mist of shine spray for a luminous, red carpet finish.
