If you can’t stop thinking aboutKelly Ripa’s ’90s bombshellhair from the 2023 Academy Awards, you’ve come to the right place.
Over the weekend, theLive with Kelly and Ryanhost, 52, attended the95th annual Oscarsceremonyalongside her husband, Mark Consuelos. While Ripa wore a head-turning see-through gown, it was her bouncy hairstyle that stole the show.
Ripa opted for a more voluminous version of hersignature hairstyle, which usually features relaxed curls. For the Oscars, the talk show host took it up a notch and styled her hair in bouncy curls that framed her face. (FYI, her hair was styled byRyan Trygstad, and her makeup was done byScott Barnes.)
Liveshared a video of the getting-ready process on the show’s official Instagram account. It’s hard to tell what’s happening because the video is sped up. However, it’s clear that Trygstad usedHalo extensions(or something similar) to achieve Ripa’s desired look.
Based on our observation, Trygstad styled the bottom layer of her hair before placing the hairpiece. Then, he curled the rest of her locks and teased the crown until it blended seamlessly.
Ripa’s makeup featured a natural lip and a smokey eyeshadow that complemented her black gown by Jason Wu. According to data complied byDalston Mill FabricsandLyst, black is historicallythe luckiest color to wear to the Oscars—at least for anyone competing the Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress categories.
Talk about an unforgettable look.
