Getting Scarlett Johannson's Hair from Iron Man 2!

scarlett johanasson iron man 2Iron Man 2 made its big premiere in Hollywood last night and is hitting theaters next week.  While the stars looked great on the red carpet, I’ve been obsessing over this promo pic of Scarlett Johansson as the Black Widow.  Rumor is that Scarlett dyed her hair red before she even got the part because she wanted to play the role so badly.  Well, not only do I want the shade of red she chose for my hair, but now I want to mimic the curls that she wears in the film.

Luckily, I got a professional curling iron for my birthday this year and it has a one-inch barrel.  I feel like I can get the most versatile looks with that size of a barrel.  The curls aren’t too tight or too loose – gosh, I really do sound like Goldilocks!  Seriously though, I’ve found that the easiest way to make sure that my hair is evenly curled throughout is to rely on sections.  I section off my hair by pinning up the area that I’m not working on.  And I always work from the underneath layers to the top layers.  This ensures that I get plenty of volume and I don’t squish any of the curls I’ve already created by pinning them.  It takes a little effort but the end result is always worth it.  Watch out, men of the world.  I take no prisoners!
