The pop princess that needs no introduction graced the VMAs red carpet in a stunning gown and signature Old Hollywood glam curls. Sabrina Carpenter took home a VMAs for her single Espresso, but not before a full performance of her hit songs, a grand entrance on a diamond stool suspended from the ceiling, dance choreography with astronauts and a wild romance with an alien—during all of which her hair stayed perfectly in place for.
So what’s the secret to building a bulletproof style for the world’s biggest pop star? Hairstylist Evanie Frausto (@evaniefrausto) shares the step-by-step process and Redken products used for America’s sweetheart at the VMAs.
Sabrina’s Signature Fringe Was Prepped 6 Hours Before Glam Started…
“For Sabrina’s VMAs look, we started six hours before glam by prepping a medium-sized roller in her bangs to let sit until it was time to get her ready,” says Evanie. This red carpet look drew inspiration from ’80s pop icons and Marilyn Monroe, blending sweet and sultry into one (complete with a Bob Mackie gown previously worn by Madonna!)
