Nominated for six Grammy awards, including Best New Artist, Sabrina Carpenter’s red carpet look has us feeling light as a feather. And as Redken’s first ever global ambassador, it’s no surprise that celebrity hairstylist Evanie Frausto used the brand to achieve Carpenter’s gorgeous curly up-do.
Get the Sabrina Carpenter Look
“First, Sabrina shampooed and conditioned her hair using the Redken Acidic Bonding Concentrate Shampoo ($34) and Redken Acidic Bonding Concentrate Conditioner ($34) to deeply nourish and moisturize,” Frausto explains. “After rinsing, we applied Redken Quick Blowout ($28) from roots to ends for heat protection and smoothness. While her hair was still damp, we worked in Redken Stay High Mousse ($30), brushing it through for even distribution. To add extra volume, we applied a touch of Redken Root Lifter ($28) at the crown.”
That extra lift helped create the effortless look helps that draws attention to Carpenter’s open backed gown.
“Once the blowout was complete, we curled her hair with a one-inch iron, pinning each curl to set it. As the curls cooled, we misted Redken Control Hairspray ($28) all over for added hold,” he says. “After the curls had set, we took them down and brushed them out to create soft, effortless waves. Then, with a swift and seamless touch, I styled a French twist at the back—keeping it polished yet relaxed to highlight the dramatic open-back silhouette and beautiful diamond necklace she’s wearing.”
And of course, the Grammy Awards red carpet wouldn’t be complete without Carpenter’s signature bangs. “We ensured the shape remained clean and structured, while in the front, we left soft, flirty texture to create the illusion of a chic, short haircut,” Frausto says. “Of course, we styled her signature bangs, enhancing the effortless, sultry vibe. The final look was an undone yet refined updo—capturing that perfect balance of glamour and spontaneity, like the effortlessly sexy aftermath of a night out.”
