The 98th Academy Awards red carpet was filled with vintage-inspired looks, from corseted gowns to sculpted finger waves. Yet Demi Moore stood out with her signature jet-black hair styled in a sleek, silk-pressed blowout that looked impossibly polished and frizz-free.
Dimitris Giannetos Behind the Look
Celebrity hairstylist Dimitris Giannetos, known for his editorial work with Vogue and Elle, crafted Moore’s glossy style. Giannetos explained that her custom feathered Gucci gown inspired him to complement the dramatic silhouette with a timeless blowout.
The Secret Product
Giannetos revealed he used Kérastase Chronologiste Thermique Régénérant Heat Protecting Cream, a $58 award-winning product recognized by Allure in 2021. The cream shields hair from heat damage, prevents breakage, and promises 24-hour frizz control—even in high humidity.
Formulated with vitamin E, hyaluronic acid, and abyssine, the product nourishes strands, boosts hydration, and enhances shine. Giannetos called it a “must-have” in his kit for achieving that red-carpet finish.
A Signature Style Elevated
Moore has long been associated with her pin-straight hair, but this year’s Oscars look elevated her trademark style. The extra-pressed, glossy finish highlighted her enduring glamour and proved why she remains a red-carpet icon.
