LIGHTS. CAMERAS. ACTION! HG is coming to you LIVE from the red carpet in Hoboken with your red carpet hair rundown. Up? Down? Somewhere in between? We’ve got you covered. Hoboken has been graced with some INCREDIBLE hair talent; from straight to wavy, braids to faux hawks, we have done some {ex bf status} Hoboken-salon-stalking on Instagram to match up our top picks for this year’s celeb hair looks. And in the meantime, it’s time to get hair-happy, with the best salons in Hoboken to get Red Carpet-worthy hair. We’ve broken it down by look, hairstyle, and salon — so all you have to do is make an appointment!
Hairstyle: Side Swag {Up & Out}
If I could describe this look with an emoji, it would be the two hands side-by-side usually paired with the notoriously slanged, “YASS!” 🙌
^Up & Out’s vintage look — so glam, and perfect for the Oscars!
How FLAWLESS are these waves? Up and Out killed this look with some help from {my personal favorite} Moroccan Oil Hairspray and a paddle brush. If you haven’t visited Up & Out, you MUST stop what you are doing and make an appointment NOW. I have been there on some rainy days {literally} and the staff and vibe always brighten my mood. My old soul loves watching ‘I Love Lucy’ while being pampered! Follow them on IG: @hobokenblowbar.
Hairstyle: Text-Your {Two 01 Salon}
The secret is out; we LOVE lived-in, worn styles. There is literally NOTHING better {except maybe BEING Jennifer Lopez}, than second day hair.

If you are familiar with Ashley formerly of Rebellations who now owns Two 01 Salon, then you must know the QUEEN of texture, Ashley. From Khloe to JLO, Ashley is your guru for achieving this look {who perfect this on blogger friend @GlowandJoy!}. Time with Ashley is always well spent — whether she is doing hair or gabbing at an HG Social, she truly is good people. She books up quickly, so make sure you call in advance to make your next appointment! Follow Two 01 on IG: @two01hair and Ashley @_brandabeauty_.
Hairstyle: Way Up {Salon Gatto}
The Oscars is usually an awards show that celebs tap into their stern side and aim for a more polished look. However, does anyone notice that Adam Sandler shows up in a T- shirt almost every year for the black tie event? While this wouldn’t be my preference, it is nice to see someone stay true and not take the social soiree so serious. We’re all for a romantic updo, but sometimes they tend to look bridal. And unless you’re getting married, that look can be overdone.
Salon Gatto is blurring lines left and right with this braided, pulled-back, edgy look. Such a gorg look that can be dressed up or down for any occasion! Christine and her staff kill the color and blowout game. Follow them on IG: @salongatto
Hairstyle: Half Full {Salon Caru}
Last but certainly not least, is a half up-half down look that celebs often rock with a braid here, or a twist there.
Brittney C is {one of the only} stylists at Caru that is well versed in special styles. Whether it is ladies night or your best friend’s wedding, Brittney C is your go-to for switching up your look. Not only is her talent is exemplary, but her good vibes are contagiously refreshing. Be sure to visit Caru for your next date night or bridesmaid emergency. Follow on IG: @saloncaru
A few other hairstyles from salons around town we love and had to mention:
Hairstyle: Beachy Waves {Blo-It-Out Lounge}
Blo-It-Out Lounge’s beachy waves have us willing summer to arrive. The ladies uptown know how to get down with anything blowout — the world is your {hair} oyster in their hands. Follow them on IG: @bloitoutlounge
Hairstyle: Vintage Glam {Dina’s Kiss and Makeup}
Our girl Dina {with the coolest and most colorful hair} rocking a chic-look for a Gatsby-themed party. For colorful locks and beautiful blowouts/tans, makeup, she’s your girl. Sadly, her salon suffered a fire several weeks ago and they are closed til further notice. To stay updated, however, follow her on IG: @DKMCosmetics
That’s all, folks! Until next time, we hope you enjoyed this Red Carpet edition of HG.
