The LOOK: Fabulous Hair With or Without Electricity

The LOOK: Fabulous Hair With or Without Electricity

He was the lead hair stylist on Sex and the City 2, he made Anne Hathaway fabulous on film, and he's GoLocalProv's weekly style expert. Frank Barbosa, the Newport-based celebrity stylist, brings red carpet perspective to hair, makeup, and overall style.

All this hurricane madness (and the lack of power!) got me thinking about some quick tips for how to get electrifying hair... without electricity.

Electrifying Tip #1: If starting off with wet hair, spray it with beach spray (there are a couple of lines which carry this miracle product).  When used right, you will love it! First, section hair down the middle, secure two low braids at nape of neck and let air dry. Or better yet, sleep in them then remove for face framing waves.

Electifying Tip #2:  If you are still rocking a pre-Irene blowout, grab your dry shampoo for a quick root pick me up with freshness.

Electrifying TIp #3: And last but not least, what a great excuse to book an appointment with your favorite blow-out artist to get you through the no-electricity blues 'til next week. Happy styling! xx

From Sex and the City 2 to Rachel Getting Married, from The Sorcerer's Apprentice to Bride Wars, Frank Barbosa has styled some of the biggest celebrities in film, TV, and theater. He's just finished styling on location alongside film stylist Alan D'Angerio on the film, The Odd Life of Timothy Green, starring Jennifer Garner. He's been in the industry for 17 years, moving from hip neighborhoods in Chicago, to Boston's Newbury St, to Bellevue Avenue in Newport. He maintains that his real passion, though, is being behind a salon chair at Frank Antonio Hair and Makeup in Newport.
