For last night’s MTV VMAs, Sabrina Carpenter was giving early 90s Madonna thanks to the latter’s actual dress. The “Please, Please, Please” singer wore her signature blonde in a similar, old Hollywood-inspired look that was clearly referencing Madonna who was referencing Marilyn Monroe. The main difference? The bangs…
Celebrity hairstylistΒ Evanie FraustoΒ usedΒ RedkenΒ to achieveΒ SabrinaΒ Carpenter’sΒ softer style and iconic bangs,Β a process that started 6 hours before the rest of her glam! Carpenter was just named Redkenβs first ever Global Ambassador.

Get the Look:
- βFor Sabrina Carpenterβs MTV VMAS 2024 hair look, we started 6 hours before glam by prepping her medium size bang in a roller and letting it sit until it was time to get her ready.
- Styling starts with the signature Evanie blowout, but with a special red-carpet twist. To give her the chic and elegant old Hollywood look, we cut her hair to lay on her shoulders. I then dampened Sabrinaβs hair with water and layered in the Redken Volume Maximizer ($30.00) on top from roots to ends, brushing it through with a round brush. I then sectioned out the hair and clipped the parts in roller clips.
- After the blowout, I sectioned the top of her hair around the hair line and sectioned off underneath the crown. I ironed this section with a 1β curling iron and continued the set. Then with 3/4β of the head I used a 3/4β curling iron to give some tightness and bounce while embracing the shorter texture.
- Lastly, I took out all the pins and added the Redken Dry Texture Spray ($30.00), brushing it all out to keep it soft and sexy. To top off the look, I added Redken Brushable Hairspray ($27.00) and she was ready for the carpet.β
