Zendaya can pull off just about any hairstyle, and there's no better place than the red carpet to deliver some of her best show-stopping looks.
When it comes to the red carpet, no one does it quite like Zendaya. Known for her method-dressing, she is constantly bringing incredible looks to the carpet, however, this year the hair took centre stage. From Spider-Man red carpet looks to The Odyssey premeire, each look has felt intentional and told a story.
Romantic Volume
Zendaya's hair at the New York City premiere of The Odyssey looked every part angelic, says Chris Grimley, Textured Hair Specialist.
"The look embraces movement and volume rather than an ultra-sleek finish, working gorgeously with her natural texture to embrace it, rather than flatten it."
"The long plait feels intentionally pulled out at parts creating a romantic finish and the noticeable lift around the crown and face gives the style an ethereal, almost halo-like finish. It is important to use hydrating products for this style to keep the texture reflective and soft without weighing it down."
Natural Texture
Keeping her curls natural, Zendaya flaunted a shorter look at the Spider-Man: Brand New Day premiere in London.
"The soft, separated bangs made an impact while still feeling wearable and although the look is polished, the strategically placed fly-aways and feathered edges make the look feel not too ‘done’," Chris observes.
"The transition from the fringe into the longer layers prevents the look from feeling too bulky and allows the hair to move naturally."
The Classic Lob
For the 2024 Oscars, Zendaya stunned on the red carpet with a classic old Hollywood lob, the deep side parting and bouncy curls was created by stylist, Tai Simon, who shared via her Instagram: "On Hollywood’s biggest night it was only right to go with classic old hollywood glamour with a flair!"
Full Fringe
The star of Challengers continued to serve (pardon the pun) when she debuted a full fringe during her May 2024 press tour. For clients considering a full-on transformation, Zendaya's bold look might just be the place to start looking for inspiration.
Curly Extensions
For one of her Dune 2 red carpet looks, Zendaya switched it up by embracing her natural curls, but with a twist. Her go-to hairstylist Tai Simon revealed that she achieved the volume and length using extensions - showing the hair possibilities your clients can achieve by investing in extension services.
Chin-Length Bob
No one can deny that bobs continue to reign supreme, dominating both online searches as well as client requests. Over the years, Zendaya has played around with bobs in all their forms from lobs to mini bobs, but we can't get enough of this slicked back look at the Euphoria 2022 FYC Party, showing just how versatile this cut can be.
