This past weekend, Jenny Cho (@jennychohair) created a dreamy, half up do’ using ghd tools on Hoyeon Jung for the 2026 Cannes Film Festival.
“For Hoyeon’s look for the Hope premiere tonight in Cannes, I wanted the hair to feel soft, feminine, and fluid to complement the movement and delicacy of her silver Louis Vuitton flower-beaded gown,” said Jenny Cho (celebrity hairstylist and Hollywood Beauty Awards winner)
Products Used:
- ghd Chronos Curve Grand Iron ($259)
- ghd Oval Dressing Brush ($40)
- NEW ghd Speed ($429)
The Breakdown:
- On damp hair, create a clean center part and blow dry the hair using the NEW ghd Speed and a ghd Oval Dressing Brush. Start at the nape and work forward through the front sections for a smooth, polished blow out.
- Once the hair is fully dry, resection from the nape in one-inch sections. Lightly mist each section with hairspray, then curl the hair under and alternate sections away from the face using the ghd Chronos Curve Grand Iron . After each curl, gently stretch the section downward while it’s still warm to create softer, elongated waves.
- From ear to ear, create a horizontal section and pull the top half of the hair into a half-up style, securing it just below the crown with a hair tie and bobby pins. Once secured, apply a touch of styling cream to refine and polish the shape of the ponytail.
- Gently pull a few delicate strands around the hairline. Mist lightly with hairspray to shape the pieces softly across the forehead, then finish the look an all-over spritz of hairspray.
