Natalie Portman attended the Annual Gotham Independent Film Awards on November 30th, 2009, in New York City, showcasing an elegant hairstyle.
What set Natalie's hairstyle apart were the subtle woven strands of bronzed chroma, adding a touch of refinement and taste to her overall look. This intricate detail elevated her hairstyle, making it perfect for an evening event.
1. Preparation: Start with clean, dry hair. If needed, use a texturizing spray or mousse to add grip and volume.
2. Styling:
• Create a semi-circled part on one side of your head.
• Sweep the top section of hair over to the opposite side, allowing it to lie smoothly.
• Gather the remaining hair and gently pull it back, securing it in a low knot or French twist just above your neck.
• Use hairpins to secure the style in place. Choose larger, thicker pins for thicker hair and smaller, thinner pins for finer hair. Ensure the pins are hidden within the hairstyle for a polished finish.
3. Finishing Touches:
• To ensure your hairpins stay in place, especially if your hair is thin, try back brushing a section of hair before securing it with pins. Spray some finishing spray onto the backcombed section and allow it to dry slightly before twisting it or forming a tight curl to secure the pin.
• Smooth any flyaways with a bit of hairspray or a smoothing serum.
Natalie Portman’s makeup complemented her hairstyle perfectly, emphasizing her Audrey Hepburn-esque features. Her eyes were highlighted with rich eyeliner, smoky eyeshadow, and mascara, while her thick eyebrows framed her face. A touch of angled blush and a neutral lip color completed her red carpet look.
