With summer officially in full swing and the Barbie movie less than two weeks away, it’s the perfect time to give your hair an official switch-up. And with Barbiecore everywhere, don’t be fooled into thinking that a pink aesthetic is the only way to be Barbie-fied. Margot Robbie walked the red, er, pink carpet with an updo that can only be described as the Barbie way.
Achieving Barbie-esque hair was more than developing a style. The day before the premiere, Robbie teamed up with expert celebrity hair colorist Jason Schwartz to ensure Robbie’s hair was the perfect Barbie blonde. “We did a modern take on the iconic Barbie blonde for her premiere. I strayed from the artificial wigs she wore in the film and humanized her from her role as a doll into the movie star and icon that Margot is,” Schwartz explained. He highlighted Robbie’s hair using a babylight technique with BLONDME Premium Lightener 9+ with 20 volume BLONDME premium developer to create an even lift while protecting the bonds in the hair. Schwartz sees Robbie every six weeks to ensure her blonde hair looks luscious and not brassy.
