Pantene Celebrity Stylist Danilo styled Katy Perry for the 2010 American Music Awards. Here he explains how to recreate the glamorous look that took her from the red carpet to her show stopping performance.



The Look!

“Her look was classic Hollywood with a contemporary twist. Katy wanted big, voluminous hair for the show. Using the Fine Collection from Pantene, I was able to vamp up her hair to create long lasting volume.”

Get the Look! Step-by-Step

- “Before doing any hair style, I always encourage my clients to wash and conditioner their hair—that way I can start with a clean, healthy base. I recommended beginning with the Pantene Pro-V Fine Flat to Volume Shampoo and Conditioning regimen, the customized formula gently cleanses hair to help remove dulling residue and build up while replenishing from root to tip.”

- “Before blow-drying, I applied a light mist of the Pantene Pro-V Fine Heat Protection & Shine Spray to Katy’s hair. This helps to protect hair against heat while providing a soft, healthy-looking finish.”

- “Next, I sprayed each section with the Pantene Pro-V Fine Hair Root Lifter Spray Gel, this provides weightless volume that is full of long lasting body and shine. After her hair was prepped, I blew out the hair, creating volume from the base of the strands.”

- “Using a medium curling iron, I created a spiral glamour set on each section of the hair and sprayed it with the Pantene Pro-V Touchable Volume Hairspray. Then each curl was pinned up and left to cool.“

- “Once I took the curls out, I used a glamour set where I brushed the curls out so the wave pattern revealed itself, opposed to hair being tousled. This gives a glamorous look to the hair. What I love about this look is that the wave is at the bottom, opposed to a retro look were the hair is curled under.”

- “I finished by misting the hair with the Pantene Pro-V Touchable Volume Hairspray.”
