Get the Inside Scoop: How I Transformed Allison Williams’ Waves into Stunning Curls for Met Gala 2024!

Curly hair stole the spotlight at this year’s Met Gala, and I had the honor of styling Allison Williams’ mane for the occasion. With a starting canvas of gorgeous waves, we embarked on a journey to create ethereal curls that would turn heads on the red carpet.

To ensure Allison’s hair was in prime condition, I began by applying Rodan and Fields Densifying Treatment to her scalp and roots, gently massaging it in for nourishment and protection. This step set the foundation for a healthy and vibrant style.

Layering on Rodan and Fields Moisture+ Leave-In Conditioner, I focused on the ends and mid-lengths, locking in moisture and safeguarding her strands from the heat, which was essential for the extensive styling ahead.

For added volume and body, I applied a generous amount of volumizing mousse from roots to ends, building upon the foundational products from Rodan and Fields.

After a flawless blowout, I incorporated a mix of clip-in and taped extensions from The Hair Shop Inc., providing Allison with luxurious 26-inch locks that complemented her look perfectly.

Using a 3/4” curling iron, I meticulously wrapped small sections of hair around the rod in a vertical fashion, creating cascading curls that exuded elegance and glamour.

To enhance the shine and eliminate frizz, I applied Rodan and Fields Defrizz Oil, followed by a gentle comb-through using a wide-tooth comb, starting from the ends and working upwards. A spritz of Rodan and Fields Refresh Dry Shampoo added volume and texture, while a touch of hairspray ensured the style stayed put throughout the evening.

As a final touch, we adorned Allison’s curls with stunning flowers by Jennifer Behr, specially crafted to complement her dress and elevate her look to new heights.

With the perfect blend of expert styling techniques and premium hair products, Allison Williams graced the Met Gala red carpet with confidence and flair, showcasing the timeless allure of curly hair in all its glory. Stay tuned for more insider tips and trends from the world of hairstyling!
