Jennifer Lawrence’s Hunger Games Hairstyles

Brigitte Bardot served as the main source of inspiration for each of the three unique style David created. Here’s how he did it.

    For her stop in Seattle, WA, David created a “Bohemian Brigitte Bardot” style. To achieve the look, David sprayed IT&LY HAIRFASHION Pure Texture throughout the hair prior to blow-drying. Using a large round brush he blow dried the hair in sections creating loose spiral waves. The fringe area was dried with a medium round brush cupping the ends under. When he was finished with the dry styling, he warmed a small amount of IT&LY HAIRFASHION Pure Definition Paste in his hands and ran through her hair to create soft piecey texture and definition. To finish, he lightly spray the style with IT&LY HAIRFASHION Pure Definition Hairspray.

    In Bloomington, MN, David created a half up, half down Brigitte Bardot look. To begin, he added IT&LY HAIRFASHION Pure Fluid Experience for a medium soft hold. After drying her hair using his fingers to create defined texture, the fringe was smoothed straight with slight volume by using a large round brush. Next, he took the top and sides lifting them slightly before securing with pins for a slight bump. The bottom section was curled with a large barrel curling iron to create loose waves. To finish he finger combed the hair with IT&LY HAIRFASHION Pure Definition Hairspray to loosen the waves with a medium holding spray.

    In Plantation, FL, David opted for a high flirty ponytail. To achieve, David applied IT&LY HAIRFASHION Pure Style Mousse Extra Strong to damp hair and blow dried with a medium round brush concentrating at the root area to achieve maximum volume and lift. After the root area was dry, he continued drying the hair and creating soft curls with a small round brush. To achieve, he took sections and wrapped them around a small round brush, placing the nozzle directly on the wrapped section and holding for 8-10 seconds on high heat followed by a blast of cool air. This sets the curl in place and leaves the sections in soft curled waves. The fringe was dried with a large round brush to smooth. Next, he sprayed her tresses with IT&LY HAIRFASHION Pure Definition Hairspray to control the hair while brushing it up into a very high ponytail and securing with a coated band. With a tail comb, he lifted the top area gently from the ponytail to create a Brigitte Bardot bump for some height. To finish he finger combed the ponytail using IT&LY HAIRFASHION Pure Texture Spray to add soft disconnected curls.
