Diane Kruger lit up the red carpet recently with this modern day twist on a classic Hollywood style. Personally I love the softness of this style. It’s finished and unfinished but, at the same time, maintains its elegance. Her hairstylist, Richard Marin, gave me the scoop on four simple steps to re-create this holiday hair DO at home.
- Dry hair with head tilted forward using an ionic dryer for maximum shine and volume (try the Remington Professional Dryer).
- Part hair to side. Using a one inch barrel curling iron, section hair in pieces that are 1½ inches by 3 inches wide. Curl in one direction for a uniform wave pattern, and let curls cool to set.
- Brush hair out in a downward motion. Keep brush close to scalp, and finger waves will form. Brush waves to one side, and secure in side ponytail.
- Roll hair into smooth bun with the ends poking out, and pin into place. Finish with a touch of hairspray and bit of shine spray. To glam it up like Diane, add a sparkly hair accessory.
The Remington Professional line includes a dryer, one-inch flat iron and two-inch flat iron.
Available exclusively at Walmart; $50 each.

A friend of mine, Drew Taylor, traveled to Africa in 2007. For Taylor, this trip turned out to be a life-changing experience. Most of us are aware of the poverty, lack of medical care, and warp-speed spread of disease such as HIV/AIDS in this part of the world. We continuously hear statistics such as “34 million orphans in Africa” and “11 million are orphaned by AIDS”. Through Taylor’s travels, he documented faces and places in Africa affected by this deadly disease. He put a face to those statistics and, beyond that, has founded a non-profit organization to assist those in need–
