Kristen Stewart looked amazing at the 2012 Teen Choice Awards last night. Her hairstylist Giannandrea‘s inspiration? Royal rocker chic. Mission accomplished. I’m loving that accent braid! Here’s how to get the look, straight from Giannandrea.

“I started with wet hair and applied Kerastase Volumeactive Mousse to the whole head. I used a wide teeth comb through to create a deep side part, and created large comb lines straight down the length of the hair. I then used a diffuser to dry the whole head without touching the hair too much – just slowly drying.

Once the head was almost dry I had Kristen flip her head upside down to finalize the drying process, and to get the texture raw I used my hands to shake up the roots. She flipped her head back up, and it was big and messy. I applied a paste to give it a bit more texture and to smooth some flyaways, but not all. I wanted it to stay messy overall.

I pulled back the hair behind the ear and made a small braid. I stopped braiding 3/4 of the way, and left the ends long. On the other side I did a few little peek-a-boo braids in the back of the head – one low and one on top of the ear. I shook it all up a bit and sprayed L’Oreal Elnett Hairspray generously on top and all over to get that chic rocker look!”
