These top-selling Olaplex essentials contributed to some of the most sophisticated hairstyles at the Golden Globes.
After about 24 hours of reflecting on the endless inspiration from last night's Golden Globes, there are several beauty moments that will linger in our minds long after the award season ends. It's just begun, yet we're already compiling hairstyles we want to try as we shift our hair from winter to spring, along with a fresh collection of ideas for our looks from spring to summer. During the 35th Annual Golden Globes, two key observations stood out: 1) There was an impressive array of memorable hairstyles that truly embodied the vibe of the individuals wearing them, and 2) Our favorites were achieved using Olaplex products. Keep reading for a deeper look at the hairstyles of two of the evening's most fashionable attendees, complete with step-by-step instructions to recreate them.
Miley Cyrus’s Effortlessly Casual Hair
Cyrus has a reputation for embracing a messy, undone style on the red carpet, and the 2026 Golden Globes showcased a version that feels both effortless and chic, thanks to her stylist's savvy use of texture. Styling with Olaplex ambassador Bobby Eliot, Cyrus adopted a “less is more” approach. Eliot describes the look he crafted for the Golden Globes as "effortless and undone," focusing on hair that appears free-spirited rather than overly done. Starting with Cyrus's towel-dried hair for maximum product absorption, Eliot mixed Olaplex's No. 9 Nourishing Bond Protector Hair Serum ($30) with their award-winning No. 7 Bonding Oil ($30) from root to tip. He then applied the brand's blow-dry mist at the roots to enhance volume, blow-dried her hair to accentuate its natural texture, and used a combination of a Marcel iron and flat iron to achieve a lived-in, tousled finish. Finally, Eliot used the No. 4D dry shampoo to enhance volume and added more Olaplex oil to tame flyaways while adding shine. It's really that straightforward to replicate Cyrus's 2026 messy-chic Golden Globes look.
Key products used: No. 9 Bond Protector Nourishing Hair Serum ($30), Volumizing Blow Dry Mist ($30), No. 4D Clean Volume Detox Dry Shampoo ($30), No. 7 Bonding Oil ($30)
Ayo Edebiri's Golden Globes Bob
For Ayo Edebiri’s modern twist on the classic Hollywood bob, celebrity hairstylist Jacob Dillion aimed to "create a soft yet voluminous bob for the event with a precise cut to shape and define its sophisticated silhouette, envisioning it as an updated version of the 2024 Italian bob." Olaplex notes that Dillion describes it as, "a sleek, touchable bob that possesses movement, volume, and a healthy sheen." Prior to using any hot tools, Dillion prepared her hair with the brand's bond-supporting shampoo and conditioner, then added Olaplex No. 5 Leave-In Conditioner ($32) for "weightless hydration and a smooth foundation." He then applied the same blow-drying mist used by Eliot on Cyrus before blow-drying to secure volume at the roots. The bob was then curled and refined (while maintaining its shape and softness), finalizing the look with Olaplex hair oil for shine and frizz control. We can't imagine a more elegant interpretation of a red carpet-ready bob.
