Emmys Hair How-to Videos: Winner Julianna Margulies and Presenter Katie Holmes

Matthew Monzon recreates the look he achieved for Julianna Margulies and reconstructs presenter Katie Holmes' modern updo using Leonor Greyl.







Emmy winner Julianna Margulies Emmys hair with Leonor Greyl


Hair stylist Matthew Monzon’s hair care breakdown, using Leonor Greyl products, for Emmy winner Julianna Margulies for the 63rd Primetime Emmy Awards.

“For Julianna Margulies’ Emmys look, I wanted to mirror the glamour of her gorgeous Armani prive gown with an old Hollywood, Veronica Lake-inspired style. However, I still wanted Julianna to look modern, so I kept the style somewhat deconstructed.

I started with damp hair and worked Leonor Greyl’s Lait Luminescence Bi-Phase Detangling Milk through her hair, applying the product only from the mid-shaft down through the ends so as not to over-saturate it.

To create volume, I combed Leonor Greyl’s Mousse au Lotus Volumatrice through the hair with a wide-tooth comb and blow-dried it using a two-inch round brush. I made a deep side part on the left and then set the top portion of her hair in Velcro rollers for a little bit of extra oomph.

Then, I started to work on the back:

· Making sure to spray Leonor Greyl Voluforme Styling Spray for Volume and Hold to each section before curling, I used a 1½ inch curling iron to barrel-curl the bottommost layer of Julianna’s hair in a uniform direction

· I created another layer on top of that one, barrel-curling the sections but this time changing the direction of the curl from that of the first layer

I continued this pattern for remaining portion of the back of Julianna’s hair by creating layer on top of layer, maintaining the direction of the curl within one layer and switching to the opposite direction for the next. Alternating the direction of the curl between layers allowed the hair to fall into the wave that I was hoping to achieve.

After completing the back of Julianna’s hair, I removed the top half from the Velcro rollers and brushed through with a boar bristle brush, creating a soft wave with my fingers.

To complete the look, I finished with a spray of Leonor Greyl’s Laque Souple Light Styling Spray for hold.”

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley's Transformers 3 Premiere Hair with Leonor Greyl


Hairstylist Yiotis Panayiotou achieved Rosie Huntington-Whiteley’s hair looks yesterday for LIVE! with Regis & Kelly and Transformers: Dark of the Moon using Leonor Greyl products.

Yiotis Panayiotu:

"Yesterday, I did two looks for Rosie: one style for day for LIVE! with Regis & Kelly, and one for the US premiere of Transformers: Dark of the Moon. Both looks were beautiful and sculpted with a healthy-looking shine, epitomizing the philosophy of Leonor Greyl."

"Every time I style Rosie’s hair, I begin with the same process. First, I bathe the hair in Leonor Greyl Shampooing au Miel, a gentle volumizing shampoo that can be used every day."

"Then, I make sure to condition her hair with a masque because it is vital to keep the hair well-nourished, especially in a humid, polluted environment like New York City. I like to use either the Masque Fleurs de Jasmin or Masque à l’Orchidée on Rosie, and I usually pick the Masque Fleurs de Jasmin for daytime and the Masque à l’Orchidée for evening."

"After bathing and conditioning the hair, I apply a few drops of Regenerescence Naturelle, a blend of botanical and essential oils and work it into the scalp for a relaxing massage. Then, I apply Mousse au Lotus Volumatrice to the hair and a little Lait Luminescence, a detangling milk, to the ends, really working them into the hair to allow them time to absorb and be more effective."
"
Then, I begin styling, making sure to not overdo it with products—I always want Rosie’s hair to stay light and volumized, and too much product will weigh it down."

"For Rosie’s LIVE! with Regis & Kelly appearance, I kept the look very simple and casual by blow-drying her hair completely dry with a combination of a small brush and a medium brush to give volume to the hair. After drying, I brushed through and applied Leonor Greyl’s Voluforme styling spray for volume and a light hold and some Sérum de Soie Sublimateur, a light-weight, anti-frizz serum, to the ends."

"For the Transformers: Dark of the Moon premiere, I wanted to go for a glamorous, Old Hollywood look to complement Rosie’s dress; it was almost Jessica Rabbit-inspired. This style transcends all cultures and hair types, and it is universally flattering."
"
After blow-drying again, I curled large sections of hair with a medium-barreled curling iron. The key to curling the hair this way is to react differently to the hair on different parts of the head: in the back, I curled upward starting at the ends of the hair, but to ensure that the curls fall nicely, stop before getting all the way to the roots. In the front and on the sides, I curled sections in alternating directions and pinned them into pin curls to allow them to set. Then, I removed the pins and lightly brushed through with a large, flat brush. I sprayed the hair with Voluforme again and applied a little more Sérum de Soie Sublimateur to the ends and pinned one side back for balance and texture. "

Leonor Greyl's Cult Summer Classic goes Organic


The iconic LEONOR GREYL certified Organic PALM OIL

“Healthy and glamourous hair using natural products” has been LEONOR GREYL’s motto since its creation in 1968. Far more than a declaration of intent, healthy and gorgeous hair using natural products is the approach chosen by Leonor and Jean-Marie Greyl, and which their daughter Caroline and her husband Tom continue to follow with enthusiasm.

During the 1970s, when the concept was still quite abstract, LEONOR GREYL demanded natural treatments and formulas in her Institute and for her products. At the time the hair treatments were quite radical, not too concerned with the aesthetic aspect and with solutions often resulting from chemistry. LEONOR GREYL was a forerunner and a visionary. It’s nature which enables her and which will always enable her to be the exclusive benchmark Brand in the world of hair care.

LEONOR GREYL products have always respected the environment. The philosophy of this family business, since its creation, rests on a scrupulous selection of all of its supplier sources in order to offer its clients around the world high quality, effective, innovative natural ingredients for outstanding quality. LEONOR GREYL has always favoured nature’s most precious, intimate secrets to treat, repair, beautify and make hair gorgeous.
This pioneering Brand was the first ever to use the healing properties of palm oil and has been using them to protect hair since 1970.

Although LEONOR GREYL already used organic quality Palm Oil, faced with numerous controversies surrounding the intensive cultivation of palm trees and their damaging effects on the environment, LEONOR GREYL now stamps the bottles with “100% organic palm oil”. It is therefore an organic quality palm oil that the Brand currently favours, harvested in a region in Colombia where its production poses no threat to the environment.

Focus on Organic PALM OIL

By definition, organic farming favours cultivation methods, which preserve or increase the organic matter in the soil. Collected in Colombia, the Palm Oil used by LEONOR GREYL observes the fundamentals of respect for life and biodiversity.
Since its beginnings in 1970, this organic plantation has preserved the trees on the land, and is against all deforestation, partial or total.

The one, the only, incomparable LEONOR GREYL PALM OIL

PALM OIL is our best friend for summer! Made from 97 % natural oils, PALM OIL is amazingly softening and regenerating. Its “Holiday” aroma is already a journey. It’s the best and a true friend to hair exposed to the sun, the ideal partner to protect it and insure the beauty of all hair exposed to UV, wind, salt, chlorine...or any summer pleasure!


PALM OIL says yes to everything!

Yes it protects against the sun and UV rays, yes it “body guards” hair against chlorine in swimming pools, yes it transforms our hair into mermaids’ locks in the sea, yes it protects, yes it softens, yes it repairs our fabulous hair.

PALM OIL is sexy!

PALM OIL is a sexy beauty secret which is passed from generation to generation, from mothers to daughters, between sisters, among friends. This oil evokes sensuality, the heat on the sun on your skin, like a drop of luxury. True luxury, having time to yourself, deciding to pleat your hair or tie it up with a nicely tanned hand, twirling it around your fingers and inventing a new style each day.

PALM OIL insures!

PALM OIL protects our hair against all types of damage: colouring, lightening, brushing, straightening, sun, swimming.
Completely vegetal and certified ORGANIC, it congeals, whatever the climatic conditions under 77 degrees Fahrenheit, creating a soft, but impenetrable protective barrier. It isolates the hair by forming a protective film, nourishing and repairing, impenetrable to water and filtering UV rays.

Professional advice

The morning before going to the beach:
On dry hair, apply to the lengths and ends before combing or brushing through to coat all the hair. Leave it on all day, touching up if necessary by rubbing a small dot between the palms of your hands and reapplying to the hair. For long hair, part in the centre before splitting the hair into two pleats or pull the hair up high at the back and plait tightly or even a pretty ponytail. For a chic ponytail: once the hair is in a ponytail, take a small lock of hair and wind it around the band and fix in place with a hairpin.

An improvised French pleat? Beautiful using a chopstick from a Chinese restaurant.

For short hair, PALM OIL defines the boy crop and disciplines the most rebellious hair.
For a surprising feminine touch draw the hair and wear large decorated earrings.

Party time

The real refinement is washing the hair in the evening. PALM OIL washes out very easily with a single shampooing, allow it to dry naturally and reapply PALM OIL, using it as a styling product. It must be applied gradually, rub it into a few locks at the side and allow them to fall back to create a “messy” glossy effect.

Leonor Greyl Treats Every Crown Like Royalty

While royal wedding watchers may be speculating about Kate Middleton’s dress, there are others keeping tabs on the hairline of the next heir apparent.

Stressful events (like planning the biggest royal nuptials since Posh and Becks) can cause hair loss, but the groom can thank genetics for the state of his crown. And he’s not alone: The American Academy of Dermatology estimates that 80 million men and women in the U.S. suffer from hereditary hair loss.

Tom Brooks, the director of R&D for Leonor Greyl, says that no matter the root of the problem, Leonor Greyl’s line of topical treatments can offer hope to those experiencing thinning.

“The products are so simple to use and offer pleasant alternatives to the medicinal options available,” Brooks says. “The nourishing botanicals, proteins and trace elements will only strengthen the hair—no matter the reason for the loss.”

At six-foot-three, William is the tallest Royal, and won’t be bowing his head to many, so he can keep his hairline out of most sightlines. But on April 29th, his crown is sure to be captured from many angles.

Without some intervention, the young prince may have no hair to the throne by his 30s. But Leonor Greyl has treatments that can restore the crowning glory for anyone courting baldness.

Mila Kunis and Oscar-Winner Melissa Leo's Oscars Hair






















We would like to share with our readers: hair how-to videos featuring celeb stylist Creighton Bowman recreating Mila Kunis’ glam 30s finger waves and the soft updo he created on Oscar-winner Melissa Leo for last night’s red carpet.


The videos :




Creighton’s breakdown on how he achieved Melissa’s look:


The initial idea for Melissa Leo’s Oscars hairstyle was to create something effortless and carefree à La Dolce Vita, but the look also needed to be about the silhouette: I developed a style that would complement the dramatic collar of her dress and elongate the line of her body.

I started out by applying Leonor Greyl Lait Luminescence Bi-Phase Detangling Milk and Condition Naturelle Heat Protecting Styling Spray to Melissa’s towel-dried hair. I used Gel à La Kératine, an alcohol-free styling gel, on her hairline to hold all of the tiny, curly strands in place.

Then, I blow-dried her hair with a medium-sized round brush so it wouldn’t be completely straight: I wanted a little curl at the ends. One of the best things about doing a round-brush blow-dry is that it enables you to lock in shine even if you are creating a rough, modern texture.

After drying, I worked a few drops of Serum de Soie Sublimateur, a silicone-free anti-frizz serum, through Melissa’s hair; created a section from ear to ear across the back of her head; and pulled the section up into a high, tight ponytail. Then, I loosely incorporated the sides and top of the hair into the ponytail to achieve softness while maintaining tightness at the nape of her neck. It was very important to keep it tight in the back to avoid interfering with the collar of Melissa’s dress.

I wrapped the pieces into a high chignon and secured everything with Voluforme setting and styling spray. Before the red carpet, Melissa and I had a bet going about her hair: she said she would let me do an updo if I could achieve the whole look with four hairpins or less. I like to call it “The Four Hairpin Challenge.” I knew that I could definitely do that with Leonor Greyl products!

After a little backcombing at the crown of Melissa’s head, the final step was to tease out the pieces in the front. My method to create that sort of effortlessness is to pull everything back and let whatever falls out fall out. If you force strands out to frame the face, it looks too specific, but if you let them fall out naturally, it produces a very soft effect.

We wanted to share with you Creighton Bowman’s exclusive tips on how he created Elizabeth Banks’ hairstyle at Sundance, where she is promoting her 2 movies in this year’s festival, “My Idiot Brother” and “The Details”.

On Elizabeth, we wanted a sexy natural wave with lots of shine. I started by using Lait Luminescence Bi-Phase detangling milk by Leonor Greyl from root to end on towel dried hair.
I did a soft blow dry using a medium round brush, and then used a medium curling iron to create her soft waves. With a light back combing at the roots I finished with one of my all time favorite products, Serum De Soie Sublimateur!

Liv Tyler's hairstylist shares tips on her Sundance look


We wanted to share with you Creighton Bowman’s exclusive tips on how he created Liv Tyler’s hairstyle for the premiere of her new thriller “The Ledge” at Sundance last Friday:

“On towel dried hair, I applied Condition Naturelle by Leonor Greyl from root to end, combined with Lait Luminescence Bi-Phase detangling milk.

Using a blow-dryer on a low setting, I wrapped her hair around my fingers, creating soft natural waves. Once fully dried, I used a couple of drops of Serum De Soie Sublimateur to finish her style with lots of shine and total frizz control. Her style lasted all day long and into the night.”
