Celebrity hairstylist Marcus Francis created a gorgeous retro hairstyle for Evan Rachel Wood at the Los Angeles premiere of Ides of March on Tuesday, September 27th. Am I the only fool who cannot WAIT to see this flick? The Cloons AND Ryan Gosling? Be still my HEART. I’ll be in ROME opening weekend (and I’m pretty sure when in Rome you don’t go see a Gosling film, unfortunately) but you better believe I’ll be seeing it ASAP upon my return. Here’s the beauty breakdown on Evan Rachel Wood’s hairstyle.

Says Marcus, “Evan’s short hairstyle has the perfect balance of masculine and feminine. The clean silhouette of her white suit inspired me to keep the look strong yet sexy. It was the glam rock eye that added to my vision of a new take on a classic: combed out finger wave with a David Bowie twist. An effortless approach to androgynous sexy elegance.”

Get the Look:
“Prep damp hair with Phyto Volume Actif Spray, blow drying with your hands to manipulate volume at the roots. In the back, direct the hair down; on the sides, use your fingers to direct the hair back – keeping a piecey texture. When the hair is half dry, lightly spritz Fekkai Tousled Wave Spray to thicken the look and feel of the hair. With the end of a tail comb, make a deep side part starting at the arch of your eyebrow. Starting at the part, wrap small sections of hair using a 3/4″ curling iron. Moving toward the other eyebrow, your next row of sections will alternate the direction of the curl. This emulates an imperfect version of a finger wave. Continue this alternating curl pattern until you’ve finished the top side section. At the crown of the head, wrap the hair as you did in the beginning, alternating about 3 rows down. Use Jonathan Dirt Texturizing Paste to keep texture tight on the sides. Switching to Pantene Pro-V Restore Beautiful Lengths Smoothing Balm for the top, rake through using your fingers to break up the curls. Stretch out the curls to look like the day after it was styled. Spray with L’Oreal Elnett Hairspray for hold.”

What do you think of this look on Evan?
