Oozing timeless glamour in an understated manner, Demi Moore just debuted the most effortless hairstyle at the Oscars - and we've unveiled the exact buys used to achieve the look.
We might only be three months into the year but awards season has been serving us all the 2025 hair trends and inspiration, from Pamela Anderson's hair at the SAG Awards in all its old Hollywood glory to chic letterbox bangs - we've seen it all. But, one A-lister that never fails to give us hair envy is none other than Demi Moore.
We've already uncovered Demi Moore's shampoo that lends itself to her hydrated and damage-free locks, but now we're looking for intel on the styling secrets behind the actress' glossy, healthy-looking lengths. Thankfully, Moore's hairstylist has revealed the easy step-by-step routine used to style her strands prior to this year's Oscars - and it's a stellar option whether you're heading for a red carpet or (in our case) into the office.
The styling essentials Demi Moore's hairstylist relied on for the Oscars
Stepping out on the red carpet of the 97th Academy Awards on Sunday 2nd March, Demi Moore adorned a standout silver embellished V-neck gown. While her opulent dress caught the attention of many eyes, our interest was piqued by the actress' perfectly preened locks.
Known for her iconic long strands, thanks to its shiny and luscious nature, we're always looking for ways that we can replicate the look for ourselves, leading us onto the mission of discovering exactly how she achieves her signature hairstyle.
Moore's hairstylist Dimitris Giannetos, and the artist behind an array of other celebrities' hair looks such as Amal Clooney and Eva Longoria, fittingly dubbed the look 'The Oscar Waves'. The look in question saw Moore's enviably sleek waist-skimming strands adorn softly brushed out curls that delicately cascaded to one side.
As for the inspiration behind the hairstyle, Giannetos says: “I was inspired by Demi’s beautiful Armani dress and wanted her hair to be glamorous, timeless, and powerful like her personality. I referenced an iconic photoshoot Demi did for the cover of Vogue Magazine in the early 2000s by Mario Testino.”

The hairstylist began with damp, towel-dried hair and sprayed the roots with Moroccanoil's Root Boost for added volume, before misting the Moroccanoil Perfect Defense Heat Protectant throughout the rest of the strands and brushing it through. Giannetos then used the Dyson Supersonic r™ Professional hair dryer, which is only available for professional use, on high heat and high airflow settings to give Moore a bouncy salon-worthy blowdry.
As for the soft waves in question, the hairstylist relied on Dyson's Corrale Straighteners on a medium heat setting to add a variety of loose curls throughout the hair - making sure to set every section with hairspray. Once complete, Giannetos brushed the hair out to give it an effortless appearance, before setting everything in place (and giving the strands a glossy finish) with the Moroccanoil Luminous Hairspray.
