“Abbott Elementary” star Quinta Brunson gleamed—literally, in a custom Dolce & Gabbana gown—at the 2022 Emmy Awards last night as she took home the award for Outstanding Writing for a Comedy. Beyond her win, she was also nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy and (Abbott Elementary) for Outstanding Comedy Series

 

Inspired by Hollywood Glam, celebrity stylist Alexander Armand said he wanted to create a “classic look that accentuates her crown, moisture-rich skin, high cheekbones, fabulous neckline, wondrous eyes and custom D&G Couture.”

HOW-TO STEPS

1

To start the look, Alexander washed and conditioned Quinta’s hair with the Maui Moisture Castor & Neem Oil Shampoo and Conditioner. Alex says this is “a duo that works perfectly for creating and sealing in moisture to give volume to textured hair for styling.”

2

Then, he applied Maui Moisture’s Flexible Hold Coconut Curl Mousse to establish the direction of curl flow.

3

Alex used the Olivia Garden Ceramic + Ion Blow Dryer with the Olivia Garden NanoThermic Ceramic + Ion Paddle Brush to blow-out Quinta’s hair with speed and efficiency. He finished blow-drying by using the cool setting to set her look while retaining moisture and shine.

4

Then, he teased Quinta’s hair to accentuate her face with the Olivia Garden CarboSilk CS-C1 Comb, placing a flirty part on the right side. He added voluminous curls with the Olivia Garden Ceramic + Ion 1-inch Flat Iron.

5

He completed the look with a light application of Maui Moisture Vanilla Bean Weightless Oil Mist and combed it through to de-frizz, add shine and bring the Hollywood look together
