Seasonal Tips

1. CELEBRATE: Renee Zellweger's Elegant Chignon

Perfect for: The Winter Wedding

The pro says: "This style looks quite intricate," says Joico International Artistic Director Damien Carney, "but it's actually very easy to achieve!"

Damien's How-to: Shampoo with Joico Smooth Cure Shampoo, condition with Smooth Cure Conditioner and apply Smooth Cure Leave In Rescue Treatment to damp hair to control frizz for up to 72 hours. If you have natural curl or waves, let your hair air dry, encouraging your natural texture to take shape. If your strands are unruly or wiry, dry your hair with a round brush to smooth frizz and tame the texture. Next, gently gather dried hair with your fingers and secure with an elastic in a low ponytail. Begin wrapping the tail around the elastic until all hair is coiled, then tuck the ends inside and pin in place. Mist with Joico Design Collection Flexible Styling Spray for soft control.

Pro Tip: Use the tip of a tail comb to loosen the top and pull out a few random tendrils for a romantic effect.

2. CELEBRATE: Helen Mirren's Shimmering Upstyle

Perfect for: The Charity Ball

The pro says: "Silver hair can be quite stunning if you have a cool complexion," says Joico Celebrity Spokesperson George Papanikolas. "To prevent unwanted yellow tones and keep the tone clear, use a violet-toned shampoo and conditioner." Adds Joico International Creative Director Damien Carney, "For an instant 'lift' draw the hair up and away from the face. It's a flattering strategy for women of any age."

Damien's How-to: Shampoo and condition with Joico Color Endure Violet Shampoo and Conditioner. Apply Joico Body Luxe Design Foam to damp strands for extra body and volume. Dry hair with a blow dryer and a large round brush, lifting the hair at the scalp to encourage optimum volume. Once hair is dry, mist with Design Collection Flexible Hairspray to create "grip." Beginning at the crown, lift small sections and gently tease each section at the root to "pad" the style. Tease the entire top section but skip the sides. Gently smooth over the surface of the hair with a brush or your hands, but be careful not to brush out the teased sections. Gently secure the hair at the nape. Roll all the hair to one side and secure with a row of pins, then reverse it, moving it to the other side, and pinning, creating an elegant little pleat in the back. Mist with Joico K-PAK Protective Hairspray.

Pro Tip: If the hair is thick or if you prefer a looser, more "undone" look, backcomb the hair with your fingers instead of a comb or brush.

3. CELEBRATE: Marion Cotillard's Curvy, Retro 'Do

Perfect for: The After Hours Party

The pro says: "This look is well suited for rich, chocolate-y hues," says Joico Celebrity Spokesperson George Papanikolas. Adds Joico International Artistic Director Damien Carney, "The color complements the luxe texture and the sleek curved shape."

Damien's How-to: : Shampoo with Joico K-PAK Shampoo and treat strands with Joico RevitaLuxe Bio Advanced Restorative Treatment to instantly strengthen and soften strands. Create a deep, slightly diagonal side parting. Beginning at the nape and working in horizontal sections, dry hair with a paddle brush or large round brush, turning the ends under. When hair is dry, mist with Joico Smooth Cure Thermal Styling Protectant. Begin in the back and divide hair into vertical sections. Place a styling iron in the center of each section and roll the bottom of the section away from the face. Work around the entire head. To create the wave in the front, take a smaller section to produce a firmer shape. When the entire head is complete and the hair is cool, brush through with a paddle brush or a Mason Pearson brush. Mist with Joico K-PAK Protective Hairspray.

Pro Tip: To maintain the '70s vibe of this look, keep the top sections sleek and smooth.

The pro says: "A great, jagged texture makes this style youthful and chic at the same time," says Joico International Creative Director Damien Carney.

Damien's How-to: Shampoo and condition hair with Joico K-PAK Color Therapy Shampoo and Conditioner. Apply Joico K-PAK Color Therapy Restorative Styling Oil to damp hair and blow dry with a large round brush, creating lift and volume at the roots. Subdivide hair into two inch sections, mist with Joico Smooth Cure Thermal Styling Protectant and twirl each section around a styling iron like the K-PAK ReconstRx Vapor Iron to create a wavy texture. Brush all hair to one side of the head and place a line of pins down the center. Roll the hair back in the other direction and pin, covering the first row, tucking the ends out of sight. Spray with Joico K-PAK Protective Hairspray to tame flyaways.

5. CELEBRATE: Minka Kelly's Caramelized Ombré Highlights

Perfect for: The Apres Ski Party

The pro says: "The ombre technique started out as a popular look for blondes," says Joico Celebrity Spokesperson George Papanikolas, who actually creates Minka's color. "But now it can be adapted in creative ways for every shade."

George's How-to: Apply a rich, mink-colored shade to all strands, using an acidic, deposit-only formula like Joico Chrome Demi-Permanent Creme Haircolor. Then select a few strands around the face and off of the part, and backcomb each section. Apply lightener to the non-backcombed mid-lengths and ends, varying the size and position of each highlight, and lighten the hair to create deep, copper-toned highlights.

Pro Tip: Rich, dark color looks best when it shines. After styling, work a few drops of Joico K-PAK Protect and Shine Serum between your palms and lightly run hands over the hair surface. Use more product in back where hair is thickest; less in front.
