The Grammys were different this year, however they were a blessing to be apart of! Major congratulations to my client #BrittanyHoward @blackfootwhitefoot who won the #grammy for best rock song for “Stay High”! This is her 4th Grammy and 16th nomination. It was a pleasure to do her hair and makeup for her red carpet and performance! To create this style I used @sheamoisture, @essations, @ouidad , and @bigchophair! 💇🏽‍♀️#hairstylist #makeupartist @monaeartistry 👗 @nonjamckenzie * * * * #haireducation #hairinspo #hairfashion #modernsalon #grammys2021 #hairgoals #hairstylistthatcare #hairstylistsupportinghairstylist #hairstylisttribe #hairstylistbootcamp #hairstylisttips #hairstylistofinstagram ##blackHairstyles #blackhairmag #blackhairdontcare #blackhairideas #blackhairstylists #curlyhair #curlyhairstyles #shorthaircut #redcarpetfashion #redcarpet (at Grammy Red Carpet) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMax1_YFROJ/?igshid=1rmsrm7cyadks

When creating this look on @judasandtheblackmessiahfilm #leadinglady @domfishback for @criticschoice , I wanted to show her classic beauty but modernize the look by creating the style on her natural kinky/coily hair. I was inspired be heroines of the past and wanted to pint her in that classic light. After removing the 2 strand twist set created with @sheamoisture 100% Virgin Coconut Oil Leave in condictioner and @ouidad Curl Immersion Custard, I used @sebastianpro_official Dark Oil while removing the twists. I added clip ins hair extensions for fullness and length by @rawluxurybylorin and twisted the hair away from the face using @ecostylergel Argon Oil gel. To accentuate the Brooklyn princess’ gown, I hand beaded the right side of her hair with diamonds and pearls. I finished the style with @igkhair Speechless Dry Oil Finishing Spray for sheen Sebastian Reshaper for hold. 👩🏽‍🦱 @monaeartistry 💅🏽 @ajabradleykemp 👗 @madisonguest 💄 @billieegene * * * #melaningoals #hairgasm #maneinterest #blackhairstylists #hairbootcamp #hairstylisttips #blackhairvideo #blackhairstyle #celebhairstylist #Blackhairmedia #BlackHairCurly #cosmetology #blackhairrock #4chair #texturestyleawards #natruralhairupdo #redcarpethair #hairgoals (at Brooklyn, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMKvGTalVni/?igshid=1av43d3li6qw3
