Get The Look: 2017 MTV VMAS Vanessa Hudgens with John Frieda Hair Care

For last night’s MTV Video Music Awards, Vanessa Hudgens’ hair made a slick-back but voluminous statement.

Inspiration: Chad Wood’s inspiration for the sleek and chic style was to play off the texture in Vanessa’s dress.

Step by step to recreate this look: 

  1. Start with wet hair and apply John Frieda Luxurious Volume Root Booster Blow Dry Lotion 
  2. Then, blow dry the hair straight and back – styling each section away from the face and helping create extra volume at the crown
  3. Next, section off the hair and starting at the nape, flat iron the hair 1” sections at a time and spray each section with John Frieda Luxurious Volume Forever Full Hairspray
  1. To give the hair a polished wet look like Vanessa’s, applyJohn Frieda Frizz Ease Secret Weapon Touch-up Crème
  2. Finally, spray John Frieda Luxurious Volume Forever Full Hairspray to lock in the style

The Video Music Awards is one of the most fashionable moments where a music artist can shine.

Celebrities can push the limits while introducing a new trend or bring back a touch of “rock and roll” glamour.

And then there’s the select few that leave us confused and wondering what happened to their look.  Needless to say, no matter how it’s addressed, fashion’s a huge component of the VMA’s and it’s always fun to recap the selections that we saw (on our television screens.)

Miley Cyrus

My Like: The beading stitched on the top and leggings looks gorgeous.  My Issue: I am not sure what’s going on with her hairstyle (looks very pre – k) and maybe a pair of stilletos would’ve pulled this look together.
