“Glee” star Naya Rivera wore her hair sleek and smooth at the 2011 Emmy Awards Show. “For Naya's look for the Emmy's this year, she wore a beautiful, elegant,
slightly edgy black dress with a train. We wanted hair to look elegant and chic,
but still modern and sexy with tons of healthy shine,” said stylist Brian Magallones.

Here’s how he achieved this look. Warning: You SHOULD try this at home!:

1. First, Brian straightened her naturally very curly hair. He used the Frizz-Ease® Hair
Serum Thermal Protection Formula to protect her hair and boost shine.

2. Once her hair was straight, he used a 1-inch curling iron to put a light natural wave back into the hair.

3. Next, Brian secured Naya’s hair into a mid-height pony tail (not too low, nor too
high). He then lightly teased the pony tail, and proceeded to form a chignon by twisting
and pinning with hairpins around the base of the pony tail. The goal was to keep it
slightly imperfect, but not too messy, just giving it some texture.

4. The look was finished off with the Frizz-Ease® Moisture Barrier Firm-Hold Hairspray, and lots of Frizz-Ease® 100% Shine® Glossing Mist to keep her hair shining throughout the night.
