Want to copy the coveted hairstyles of the 2011 American Music Award nominees? With a little help from göt2b hair stylers and celebrity stylist Larry Sims, you’ll be on your way to a rockin’ ‘do in no time. Below, Sims predicts the red carpet looks of Katy Perry, Adele and Rihanna and gives step-by-step tips on how to achieve each look at home!

“Katy Perry’s look has always been daring and fun with a classy edge to it,” says Sims. He predicts she’ll rock glamorous, old Hollywood waves (in her now signature pink hair, of course!). To achieve Katy’s flawless waves, Sims suggests “curling hair with a ¼ inch curling iron barrel, wrapping strands downward from root-to-tip, section-by-section.” After hair has been set, Sims recommends “brushing strands downward to loosen up the wave before locking in the style with göt2b rockin’ it encore hold hairspray.

“Adele typically shows up to red carpet events with her signature beehive,” says Sims. This Sunday, he predicts Adele will flaunt loose curls and tons of volume. To achieve Adele’s luscious locks, Sims recommends “curling hair with an extra-large curling iron barrel, wrapping hair section-by-section in opposite directions away from the face.” Once hair has been set, “sprinkle göt2b POWDER’ful volumizing styling powder directly onto roots, focusing on the crown. Then, toss your head over, massaging the powder deeper into your roots with your fingertips,” he adds. Toss your head back over and voila!

Over the past year, Rihanna has gone from black bob to red curls and back again! “This year, I predict Rihanna showing up with hair that will be fused with wheat and blonde, whose style will resemble Bridget Bardot’s sexy side-swept locks,” says Sims. To achieve this look, Sims suggests prepping hair with the göt2b fat-tastic dry shampoo to absorb oil and give limp strands “incredible volume that will last all night long.” Next, he recommends setting hair with jumbo-size hot rollers. “Once hair has been set, use your fingertips to break up the texture while keeping your side fringe heavy at the brow of your face.” Lastly, spray the finished look with göt2b rockin’ it encore hold hairspray.

göt2b hair stylers retail for $5.99 at Wal-mart, Drugstores (Walgreens, CVS and Rite-Aid), Ulta and food retailers nationwide.

I recently received some great men’s and women’s Got 2b products to try out and I wanted to tell you about some of my favorites. I love how well the Got 2b products worked on my families hair and the fact they are very affordable.

Check out the whole line at your local drugstore or grocery chain or if your an online shopper check out drugstore.com for their buy one get on 50% off special on Got 2b.

My husband and son love this stuff, my son calls it the foghorn he loves the nozzle and thinks its fun which helps me get his hair done.  Just spray it on and then work the hair however you want it styled and it will stick! I have a hard time styling my sons hair and getting the spikey look right but  Got 2b Glued is great because once you spray it on you have a minute to work your look before it sets and it doesn’t leave the hair crunchy looking.

Freeze that style into place with got2b blasting Freeze Spray. Spray through hair carelessly for that sexy, messy look or twist tips into spikes for outrageous hold that will last until your next shampoo. Only for stuck up styles and extreme rock hard hair.

If you man has hair that isn’t stick straight try Got 2b’s Magnetik. It smells delicious which doesn’t hurt but it also works wonders on soft wavy or messy hairstyles. It leaves just the right amount of hold but his hair will be soft and touchable.

Ok, on to one of my favorites, I am hooked on the Got 2b Smooth Operator hairspray!  I love the sweet scent but even better is how well this hairspray holds. When I heat style my hair I want it to last as long as possible and Smooth Operator makes that possible. Just a few sprays and my hair is not only much more resistant to the elements it helps tame and flyaways that happen when I heat style my hair.

My natural curl is almost impossible to remove completely by myself even with a flat iron. I have tried and tried to recreate that perfect salon blowout but I always still find clumps of curls. At the store this weekend I was looking for a new and low cost product that would help smooth my hair and decided to try Got 2b CrazySleek.

After washing my hair I worked the lotion through to the ends and got to work blow drying and flat ironing. I am really impressed by how well my hair straightened no clumps of curls to be found. On top of getting my hair being really straight my hair also remained soft enough for me to run my fingers through without any tell tale flat iron dry out. I loved this product and with a coupon at Fred Meyer it was only $3.99!  Can’t wait to try more from the Got 2b line.

Works with the heat of your blow dryer and flat iron to deliver
long-lasting, smooth hair that resists curling.  Provides thermal
