Pink's Red Hot Look

The best performance at the 52nd annual Grammy Awards was by far, in my opinion, Pink. She dazzled us while only wearing a few white stripes and carefully bedazzled areas. The singer's hair was done by stylist Marco Santini, who highlighted glistening shine to play up her platinum hair color, defined her texture and subtle grey tips. The look was beautiful and sophisticated but 100% Pink.

Santini was inspired by the singer's silver-grey gown and the dramatic performance she had planned so he created a unique, flowing shape that emphasized volume, height, and the illusion of movement. He accented the look with a diamond star-shaped pin. He even stayed with her backstage to primp her hair after her aerial performance of "Glitter in the Air".


Talk about dedication!

"I had to work very quickly to restyle her look," explained Santini. "I used Moroccanoil argan oil-infused products because I know they instantly absorb into hair, produce amazing shine, and won't create build up. The look had to appear as fresh, light, and beautiful the second time around as it did for the red carpet."

Here's what Santini did and how you can replicate the look...

Step 1:
Santini started by applying Moroccanoil Treatment throughout the singer's damp hair to create a silky-smooth shine. He placed a small amount in the palm of his hand then combed through the hair with his fingers.

Step 2:
Next Santini applied argan oil-infused Moroccanoil Hydrating Styling Cream from the roots through the ends for lift at the root and to give soft shine-enhancing hold, as well as create a "grip" for his brush while blow drying shape and direction.

Step 3
After Pink's cropped locks were blow-dried, Santini misted new argan-oil infused Moroccanoil Luminous Hairspray on the outer layer and saturated several layers inside the hair from root to end. Moroccanoil Luminous Hairspray leaves hair looking weightless and gives the hair glistening shine without sticky residue or build-up (especially important in this style since Santini had to reproduce the look after her Grammy performance). Santini then brushed the sides of Pink's hair back and sculpted a rockabilly fold toward the nape of the neck.

Step 4
He finished the look with a light mist of Moroccanoil Glimmer Shine Spray all over the hair (from a distance of 10-12 inches) for an instant boost of shine. The final touch to Pink's look was a star-shaped diamond brooch that was fastened to the front of her hair. Santini took a small section of hair towards the front of her head and tied it with a clear rubber band., then fastened the diamond brooch to the hair for an elegant touch.
