Get the Formula: Margot Robbie & Brie Larson's Golden Globes Blondes

Colorist Jacob Schwartz is behind the bright, shimmering blondes on Golden Globes 2024 nominees Margot Robbie (for "Barbie") and Brie Larson (for "Lessons in Chemistry.")

"When working with both Margot and with Brie I always use my 'spun with gold' technique," the celebrity colorist says, "and have mostly drawn my inspiration from Botticelli in its conjuring of a gilded, backlit effect to the hair in real life; an overall solid but dimensional highlighting to the hair. 

"Emphasizing light, movement, and dimension, the technique is achieved by using a balance of fine highlights woven throughout the hair.

"It’s natural, yet almost too good to be true — an elevated version of your natural hair color or what you would dream of your natural color to be!" Schwartz says.

Brie's hair this year was a lighter sunlit blonde compared to Margot, but both inspired by this.
