100 people in a room gag. Andy Samberg’s charming grin. Sandra Oh’s thanks to her parents. Olivia Colman’s use of the F word. Black Panther cast on the red carpet. Christian Bale’s nod to Satan. Fiji Water girl. Golden Globes, you were great. And the hair? Well, that was even greater.
Side part, tousled waves, faux bobs. That sums up the hair game last night, with a cheeky appearance from Nicole Kidman’s bow thrown in too.
I’m calling it though – my stand out was Lady Gaga. Dress, hair eye shadow – Gaga had baby blue on tap, matching her Valentino Couture gown to her swept-back chignon. Frederic Aspiras – her hairstylist on the night – thanks her outfit for the inspiration; ‘when her gown came in for the fitting we were all blown away with the color. This awards season we wanted to really bring Gaga to Hollywood by showing it through her Cerulean blue hair’. FYI, he’s also posted a step-by-step of how her updo was crafted on his Instagram (praise be).
We’ve pulled together our ‘top’ looks for the night (though, let’s be honest, everyone looked 10/10). From 40s waves, to that pastel blue rinse, our inspiration to head to the salon instead of grabbing the GHDs is at an all time high.
