GET THE LOOK: BRITTANY HOWARD’S 67TH GRAMMY GLAM—A CELEBRATION OF NATURAL COILS

When Brittany Howard stepped onto the 67th Annual Grammy Awards red carpet, she continued a visual story rooted in her What Now album and tour. Her bold, sculpted coils, designed by celebrity hairstylist Monaè Everett, were a direct callback to the signature aesthetic Everett created for Howard’s album cover and live performances.

As the creative force behind Howard’s hair looks, Everett ensured that the Grammy style elevated this vision while maintaining seamless artistic continuity. Every element, from the defined texture to the diamond-accented cornrow, reinforced Howard’s music, personal style, and stage presence.

Step 1: Strong Foundation for Defined Coils

Everett prepped Howard’s hair using The Doux PRESS REWIND CURL RETENTION SHAMPOO and FAST FORWARD HEAT PREP CONDITIONER, which cleanse, hydrate, and detangle with Pataua Oil.

Step 2: Hydration for Volume & Definition

To keep Howard’s coils soft, defined, and full of height, Everett applied Dear Mama Moisture Milk as a leave-in conditioner, ensuring lightweight moisture without weighing the hair down.

Step 3: Expert Curl Definition & Styling

Everett crafted large finger coils, using CRAZYSEXYCURL™ HONEY SETTING FOAM, which delivers firm, flake-free hold while keeping curls touchable. On the cropped sides, she applied BIG POPPA DEFINING GEL for a sleek, sculpted finish, reinforcing Howard’s structured, signature look seen throughout her album and tour. A single cornrow on the right side tied everything together with intentional, artistic detail.

Step 4: Locking in Longevity

Everett ensured the coils dried completely before further styling to preserve definition, prevent frizz, and maintain structure all night.

Step 5: Volume, Shine & The Final Touches

A light serum enhanced shine and moisture, while a hair pick at the roots added volume without disrupting the curls. The final touch—diamond accents along the cornrow—was a direct nod to Howard’s What Now album cover and tour visuals, reinforcing her artistic identity from studio to stage to red carpet.

Howard’s Grammy Look: More Than a Style

This look was more than just a red carpet moment—it was a continuation of a creative narrative. Everett’s expertise in hairstyling and artistic direction ensured Howard’s natural texture remained central to her visual storytelling.

Pro Tip: Diffusing for Defined, Frizz-Free Curls

Start diffusing at the scalp and work downward for long-lasting curl definition. Use the cool air setting at the roots to confirm dryness, preventing overheating and frizz while locking in shape.
