Get Gina Rodriguez’s Golden Globes Look: Step By Step Guide From ‘Jane The Virgin’ Star Stylist To Achieve ‘Old Hollywood’ Waves

Gina Rodriguez could be described as the quintessential bell of the Golden Globes ball. The actress, who before landing the title role of Jane on the CW’s new comedic hit “Jane the Virgin” was relatively unknown, is already making a big impact at this year’s award season. After accepting the People’s Choice Award for her series, which won the Favorite New TV Comedy Award, Rodriguez shocked fans, and herself by taking home the Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Television Series Comedy. In addition to the personal achievement for Rodriguez, her Golden Globe nomination was a first for the CW Network, and now her win is obviously the first ever Golden Globe for the entire network! The 30-year-old actress delivered an eloquent and passionate speech, and she looked every inch the super star while doing it! If you were swooning over Rodriguez’s “Old Hollywood” hair, then you have come to the right place, because her stylist Paul Norton is giving us a step by step guide to achieve the same look that Rodriguez rocked last night! (Unfortunately the Golden Globe is not included)

Norton revealed that he and Gina wanted to keep her look classic, her Badgley Mischka gown conveyed such an “Old Hollywood” feel that they felt it necessary to look for hair inspiration in that era. Norton said, “Gina and I felt it most suiting to keep consistent by channeling the looks of old Hollywood glamour embodied by women such as Rita Hayworth, Lana Turner, Ava Gardner, and Jane Mansfield. Given that the dress exposes the shoulders we knew that a romantic shinny classic waves were the way to go!”

Step 1

I began Gina's look on damp hair that had been freshly washed with Joico Color Balance Blue Shampoo and Conditioner to remove any brassiness from existing high lights she is currently growing out.

Step 2

Knowing I intended on setting Gina's hair to create a wave that was soft but would also hold all night, I added Joico Power Whip from roots to ends and blew out the hair with a medium size boar bristle round brush until fully dry.

Step 3

Once the hair was dry I took 3 large horizontal sections beginning at the bottom and sprayed Joico IronClad Thermal Protectant Spray gently throughout each section to protect the hair from the heat.

Step 4

I then took sections beginning in the back and at the bottom of the head, with a 1 ^1/4 inch curling iron I curled 2 inch sections under and using larger agitator hair clips I secured each section in order to cool and create the perfect wave. As I made my way to the top section I gave her a deep side part on her right side and curled all of the hair under and away from the face and also secured those curls with large alligator hair pins.

Step 5

Once the set was completed I generously sprayed several coats of Joico Joi Mist Medium Styling and Finishing Spray over the entire head in order for it to help set the wave while the hair cooled. Allowing the set to cool insures that they reform as actual curls.

Step 6

Once I felt as though the curls had perfectly cooled, I began removing the clips and releasing the curls. From the bottom to the top. After every clip was removed I asked Gina to tilt her head back and rest her neck on the back of the chair allowing me the chance to vigorously run my fingers though her hair in a combing fashion breaking up each curl.

Step 7

Next I put a dime size amount of Joico Crème Wax Texture and Shine in the palm of my hand and rubbed it around then applied it to Gina's hair from root to tip, finger combing it all back away from the face and began to sort of place the hair exactly how I wanted it to lay paying close attention to her face shape in order to make sure each wave rested at the most flattering point.

Step 8

I then secured the waves with large metal hair pins in order for it to set in that form a little while longer allowing me time to brush back the right side and secure it with several black bobby pins.

Step 9

Lastly I sealed the entire look with Joico Flip Turn Volumizing Finishing spray in order to really insure the voluminous waves would hold all night and also a spray of Joico K-PAK Color Therapy Dry Oil Spray for ample shine!
