Secrets Behind the Hottest Golden Globes Hair and Beauty Looks

Anne Hathaway, 2011
Careful not to clash with her statement dress, Anne Hathaway opted for simple, relaxed waves. To get her look, her hairstylist Adir Abergel first doused wet hair with Fekkai Advanced Full Blown Styling Whip before rough-drying it. "I wanted to let her natural wave surface," he told us. He then pinned still-warm hair in tight curls and allowed it to set. Abergel let Hathaway's hair fall haphazardly when taking the pins out, which determined the part. "I think it gave the style a bohemian vibe," he said.

Borrowed from a private Cartier museum in Geneva, Charlize Theron's vintage diamond headband was the basis for hairstylist Enzo Angileri's simple yet chic updo. "Because the jewelry was so special, the hair had to be understated," he told us. To create her look, Angileri pinned and twisted textured hair into an undone bun, spritzing with Moroccanoil Frizz Control to tame flyaways.

Kate Hudson looked classically chic with dramatically accented eyes and frosted lips. "When I saw Kate in her gorgeous white dress, I knew we had to go for a sophisticated and pretty Grace Kelly-inspired look," her makeup artist Leslie Lopez said. To get Hudson's reversed cat eye, Lopez lined her waterline with a creamy, kohl pencil, extending the thin line just past her tear ducts. For her frosty nude lips, Lopez used Chanel's Aqualumiere Sheer Colour Lipshine in Malta. "It's the perfect sheer and subtle peach," Lopez said of the shade.

"We wanted to go for something organic, young and modern," hairstylist Mark Townsend said of Lea Michele's beachy updo. After blowing hair dry, Townsend used a 1" curling iron to create piecey ringlets. He then gathered hair and pinned it back into a messy chignon, leaving out layers in the front. He finished the look with a veil of Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray, and scrunched for a lived-in feel.

Hairstylist Campbell McAuley created a romantic, sophisticated updo he called "naturally enchanting" to complement Shailene Woodley's strapless gown. To get the regal look, Campbell suggests using Wella Professionals Velvet Amplified serum before drying hair with a diffuser. "I love this product, it makes hair look healthy and shiny," he said. Once dry, use a 2" curling iron to enhance natural waves. Then, tease the crown and then pull back layers into a loose ponytail before twisting and pinning hair into a low, large bun.

"The look was Hollywood noir," hairstylist Robert Vetica said of Salma Hayek's long, flowing waves. "We added a bit of length to complement the noir vibe." To get the look, Vetica used a round brush while blow drying, to create tons of volume. With a small curling iron, he then curled 2" sections, twisting away from the face. "I kept the curls tight, knowing the length would help it drop into a loose wave," he said. To complete the look, Vetica lightly brushed through the spirals, teased the roots and finally misted with hairspray to keep it intact.
