Let’s start with Kendall Jenner. Kendall Jenner rocked a chic top knot with an edgy flair of side swept bangs on the red carpet of tonight’s American Music Awards. Celebrity hairstylist, Etienne Ortega, created this sleek top knot look with the help of KMS California products. “My inspiration for Kendall’s look was a funky modern top knot with a wispy bang, that goes perfect with her high neck dress!” Here’s the scoop from Ortega on how to get Kendall’s red carpet look:

Step 1: Ortega used KMS California ADD VOLUME styling foam ($17.50) while the hair was damp and roughly blow dried her hair.

Step 2: Ortega used the KMS California HAIR PLAY messing cream ($20), putting a quarter size amount in his palms and worked it all throughout the hair to start creating a build up of texture.

Step 3: Then Ortega put her hair up into a pony, followed by twisting the hair into a fun top knot.

Step 4: To finish the look he used the KMS California HAIR PLAY playable texture ($20) to make her bangs textured, piecey and ready to hit the red carpet.

The last look we are featuring was created by stylist Bobby Eliot for Hailee Steinfeld using Conair hair tools. Inspired to perfectly complement her sequin romper, this gives a french-inspired vibe with a center part, resulting in the perfect combination of playful and sexy. Here’s how Eliot created this effortless look:

  • Start with wet hair and brush through a volumizing mousse using a Conair Detangling Brush, the soft bristles ensure that product is evenly distributed, while gently reducing and preventing tangles.
  • Blow out hair, concentrating on getting volume around the root, and when it is almost 100% dry use the Conair Porcupine Cushion Brush to finish and smooth out hair, giving it a natural shine.
  • Use a 1” Marcel Iron and create undone texture, twisting hair in alternative directions for more of a beachy, natural look.
  • Next, section hair and lightly back comb using the Conair Slim Teasing Brush giving hair extra body and fullness.
  • Lastly, finish the look by shaking out hair with fingers, spray a light-hold hairspray and touch up any unwanted flyaways using the Conair Fly Way Brush.

Which of these looks would you recreate? We’d love to hear about it.

    I didn’t watch the AMA but I did see that bun and bangs. If only my hair would grow so I can put it in a ponytail…I would rock that.

    As much as I don’t want to admit it, I love Kendall’s hair. And Demi’s is so reminiscent of the flapper era. Love it!
