Allure


How does somebody’s magnificence “factor” turn out to be their magnificence “factor”? That’s the query we’re posing to celebrities and their magnificence professionals in our new collection, Simply One Factor. After all, journalists that we’re, we’re additionally taking the chance to ask in regards to the one product that helps preserve their factor… thing-ing.

This time round, we caught up with hairstylist Scott King, who has tended to Sabrina Carpenter‘s famously bouncy hair on-stage (Coachella), on-screen (her just-droppedStylemusic video), and on the crimson carpet (the Vainness Honest Oscar Get together). Just some weeks earlier than he joins her on the Brief n’ Candy tour, he took a while to reply the sweetness query that is been on our minds all summer season: How do Sabrina’s bangs all the time look so darn good?

The primary time I labored with Sabrina was 9 years in the past; it was for a photoshoot for an internet journal. I bear in mind it was the day earlier than her candy 16. It’s loopy to have seen her develop from that to the place she is now.

Again then, her hair was lengthy, thick, very beachy… It was much like [the vibe of] her character on the time on Lady Meets World. Bangs got here into the image solely three or 4 years in the past for the Emails I Cannot Ship album. I do not [cut] her bangs—her colorist and the one that cuts her hair, Laurie Heaps, who labored together with her on Lady Meets World, does—so it was only a new look sooner or later once I noticed her. I really feel just like the bangs undoubtedly began a brand new period for Sabrina and a brand new type of self-confidence got here out.

I believe curtain bangs work so nicely for her as a result of they actually soften her options. They’re shorter within the middle and get slightly longer as you attain the surface of her face which opens her face up, like a curtain. She’s additionally a lady who, when she places her hair up, likes to have items down, and I believe it simply is the right option to simply preserve it comfortable and body your face and improve the cheekbones.

Sabrina has shorter curtain bangs, so in addition they provide a variety of flexibility—we are able to cut up them within the center or barely off to the aspect. I like to recommend any individual who’s newer to bangs go longer, after which you possibly can steadily go shorter if you need. However I all the time say the shortest piece within the middle needs to be proper on the bridge of your nostril after which angle [the rest] outward.

To model Sabrina’s bangs, I blow dry with a spherical brush or use a Dyson Airwrap with the spherical brush attachment. We typically put a Velcro curler in [and turn it forward] to provide her bangs extra of that fluffy bend. We prefer it to have slightly little bit of a curl beneath, which makes the bangs extra bouncy and 60s-inspired.
