Michael O’Rourke Shakes Up Hollywood’s Hair

Cash for your car

Who will dress Beyonce at the Grammys? What jewelry will Sandra Bullock don at the Academy Awards? And, of course, which celebrity style will set hair trends in 2010?

As always, defining the good, the bad, and the ugly on the red carpet during award show season will be the talk of the town. Michael O’Rourke, world-renowned hairstylist guru and owner of new tool and styling line Love Your Hair, has the inside scoop on:

•        What’s hot and what’s not?
•        Who rocked it best at the
Oscars, Grammys, etc.?
•        Styling trends inspired by the red carpet.
•        How you can re-create red carpet glamour at home.

Highly respected in the beauty industry, O’Rourke left international hair care company, Sexy Hair Concepts (a company he founded) in 2009. In January 2010, he jump-started new Love Your Hair – a pro-beauty product and appliance company that is breaking new ground with avant-garde technology and tool designs.

O’Rourke sets Hollywood trends in exclusive seminars – teaching select celebrity hairstylists his latest styles, and putting his high-quality products directly into their hands to use on their celebrity clients.

He has instructed stylists including, but not limited to: Gwyne Redner (“The O.C.” and “Private Practice”), Jacklin Masteran (“Melrose Place”), Mary Guerrero (“Dancing with the Stars“), Emmy Award Winner Michael Moore (“Angels & Demons“), Mary Ann Valdes (“Ugly Betty” and “Grey’s Anatomy”), Cynthia Romo (“79th Annual Academy Awards”), Pauletta Lewis-Irwin (“Knocked Up“), Lucia Mace (“Mad Men” and “Life As We Know It”) and Linda Arnold (“90210” and “Forgetting Sarah Marshall”).
