The Oscars are the ultimate celebration of glamour where stars shine in the spotlight, and this year, Felicity Jones’ flawless hairstyle was one of the evening’s standout beauty moments. Hairstylist Bridget Brager, known for her ability to create chic, polished looks, used the FHI Heat VersaSphere to craft Felicity’s stunning red carpet hairstyle—an edgy yet modern updo that complemented the neckline of her dress perfectly.
Behind Felicity’s Oscar Look
For the 2025 Academy Awards, Bridget had a clear vision for Felicity’s hair: something edgy but modern. She wanted the hair to be up and sculpted to highlight the stunning neckline of Felicity's dress while maintaining softness and texture.
“Felicity‘s hair was inspired by the lines of her gorgeous Armani dress. We wanted the hair to be edgy but modern at the same time. Because of the neckline we decided to put the hair up…Felicity’s hair is cool and effortless!”
FHI Heat Versasphere, dubbed by Bridget as the “ultimate smoothing hairdryer,” was essential in creating the look. With its unique design and advanced technology, the VersaSphere allowed Bridget to effortlessly smooth and style Felicity’s hair, ensuring it was sleek, shiny, and picture-perfect for the red carpet.
The Power of the Versasphere
The Versasphere is a revolutionary tool that combines the power of a blow dryer with the convenience of styling tools all in one. Bridget used it to quickly and effectively smooth Felicity’s hair while adding volume and shine. The VersaSphere’s innovative spherical design and ceramic technology ensure even heat distribution, reducing frizz and promoting a glossy finish. It’s versatile enough to handle all hair types, making it a must-have for any red carpet stylist.
By using the VersaSphere, Bridget achieved soft, sleek hair that wrapped beautifully in a stylish updo, which complemented the rest of Felicity’s look, from her sculptural dress to her glowing makeup. It truly proved to be the “ultimate smoothing hairdryer,” allowing for flawless styling with minimal effort.
Other Essential FHI Heat Tools
While the VersaSphere played a central role in styling Felicity’s hair, Bridget also used other FHI Heat tools to perfect the look. Here are some additional FHI Heat favorites that help achieve a red carpet-ready finish:
