Recreate Mila Kunis' latest red-carpet look with these expert tips & tricks:

The Hair: Soft Texture

Stylist Mara Roszak's step-by-step guide to achieving Mila's magnificent updo:

Step 1: Apply TRESemmé Naturals Mousse to wet hair and rough dry, parting the hair to one side.
Step 2: With a 1” barrel curling iron, wave hair away from the face in sections.
Step 3: Brush out the curled sections with fingertips and form an “S” wave around the face.
Step 4: Pull hair softly into a messy chignon and spray it all over with TRESemmé Naturals Finishing Spray for a soft holding finish.

The Makeup: Sultry & Sexy

Makeup artist Tracey Levy explains: "I took inspiration directly from Mila's bold yet feminine lilac gown, resulting in a look that's both sultry and beautifully defined.

As a base, I applied Lancôme Teint Miracle Lit-from-Within Foundation and Blush Subtil in Sheer Amourose. Next, I enhanced Mila's eyes using Lancôme Color Design 5 Pan Palette in Coral Crush, Color Design Eye Shadow in Impress, Le Crayon Khôl EyeLiner in Black and Hypnôse Waterproof Custom Volume Mascara in Black. And on the lips, I layered Lancôme Color Fever Gloss in Blazing Pink over La Laque Fever Lipshine in Lucent Nude."

We're thankful for both the hair hits and misses at this year's Oscars, as without such risks the red carpet would have been as lackluster as James Franco and Anne Hathaway's on-stage chemistry.

"I was so inspired by her pale pink Marchesa dress and the dripping beads. I wanted to create a hairstyle that was a cross between Audrey Hepburn and a ballerina. Pulling Hailee's hair up really showed off her neck and having the hair show from the front gave the illusion of elongating her like a ballerina. The headband made the look young and age appropriate," says celebrity stylist Jenny Cho.

Below, Cho shares how to recreate Hailee Steinfeld's Oscars updo (for under $12!):

1. Layer Suave Professionals Heat Protection Spray (to protect hair from heat) and Suave Professionals Sleek Anti-Frizz Cream to damp hair and blow dry with a mixed bristle brush to smooth hair and help fight any unwanted frizz and flyways.

2. Make a high ponytail using a brush to smooth as you go.

3. Spit the ponytail into two. Spray Suave Professionals Touchable Finish Lightweight Hold Hairspray to the two sections and tie a knot as if you're making a bow. Keep knotting until you run out of hair. Secure with bobby pins and "U" shaped pins.

4. Spray hairspray to a toothbrush and brush back any flyaways to define and polish the look. Mist entire look with hairspray and spritz Suave Professionals Vibrant Shine Spray to finish the look.

5. For an added bit of glam, add a glittery headband.

Dianna Agron turned heads in a fresh, feminine take on the '50s rockabilly style at Sunday's Grammy Awards.

Below, celebrity stylist Adir Abergel shares the steps he took to achieve the look:

"I started by applying Fekkai Coiff Strong Hold Volume Mousse to the roots (on dry hair) and Fekkai Advanced Silky Straight Ironless Smooth Finish Serum at the ends. Then, I blow-dried the hair, using my hands, until it was completely dry.

Using 1 1/4" curling iron, I then curled the hair and pinned it in place starting at hairline all the way to the crown. Next, I pulled the back of the hair into a sleek chignon at the crown of the head.

To finish the look, I took the pin curls out and backcombed the roots, in order to add volume for the pompadour effect. To keep the backcombing in place, I sprayed Fekkai Coiff Sheer Hold Hairspray at the roots. Next, I smoothed the top of hair into place. Finally, I applyed Fekkai Coiff Nonchalant Piecing & Forming Wax on the ends of Dianna's hair to create some separation, then sprayed Fekkai Coiff Sheer Hold Hairspray to set."
