YouTube’s shining star Emma Chamberlain made a head-turning debut at the 2021 Met Gala that left us needing the inside deets. Celebrity Stylist Laura Polko (@laurapolko) nailed the sleek style that created a perfect balance of a youthful look with an elegant edge on the 20-year-old influencer.

 

We’ll be expecting recreations of this look all season long—read below for the full how-to from Laura that you’ll want to keep on hand!

 

The Inspo: “We wanted to keep it young and cool but not too young. Chic is the vibe and keeping the focus on the eyes,” says Laura.

Products Used

HOW-TO STEPS

1

Start by prepping wet hair with Aquage Uplifting Foam and begin distributing product from the back and working through to the front.

2

To create lifted volume behind the sleek bangs, set the back of the hair all the way up to the crown using Velcro rollers. 

3

For the front of the hair, use Aquage CBD Medium Hold Styling Gel to slick down the hair and create an added shiny finish. 

4

To set hair, apply heat using T3 Fit Dryer and keep hair locked in place with setting clips.

5

For the retro flipped-out look, use a curling iron to go through just the bottom portion of hair—barrel size will be determined on how tight or loose of a flip is desired. 

6

Finish the look with Aquage Finishing Spray throughout and Aquage Dry Texture Finishing Spray for hold and volume at the crown.
