Get the Look: Beautiful Hair with Pantene Pro-V

pantene logo

This week's "get the look" featured post is going to be all about getting shiny beautiful hair. Last Wednesday, February 20th, some of the top Latino artists in entertainment gathered at the American Airlines Arena in downtown Miami, Florida for Univision’s annual prestige awards, Premio Lo Nuestro. Among these stars was the beautiful actress/singer Maite Perroni, advocate of Pantene’s Beautiful Lengths program.

Maite’s beauty glam look was created by Gabriel Samra, celebrity hairstylist for Pantene. Gabriel used the New Pantene Pro-V Stylers Collection. So as you can imagine by looking at the photo below, as soon as Maite walked the red carpet she instantly became a global trending topic on Twitter.

Does Maite not have the most beautiful healthy looking hair? I personally love it - especially the length of her hair. I cannot wait until my hair grows to this length; but enough about me ....

Let's take a look at how we can achieve Maite Perroni’s Red Carpet Look by following the three steps that celebrity hairstylist Gabriel Samra did to get this look:

1. Step 1: To start the transformation, Gabriel blow-dried Maite's hair using a big round brush to straighten from root to tip.

2. Step 2: Once dry, her hair was then separated in top and bottom layers, clipping the top layer to keep it out of the way. Then, the bottom layer was sectioned in 2-inch sections and sprayed with Pantene Pro-V Stylers Heat Protection Spray to protect the hair from heat damage and enhance its shine. Using a flat iron, Gabriel straightened each section from root to tip, taking 3-5 seconds per section. Once the bottom layer of her hair was completely flattened, he repeated the above steps to the top layer.

3. Step 3: For the finishing touches, a comb was used to smooth and put hair in desired place. Finally, Gabriel sprayed Pantene Pro-V Stylers Flexible Hold Hair Spray throughout Maite's long hair because its flexible hold maintains hair’s natural movement and makes the look seem effortless!

This seems simple enough, doesn't it? All you need to have are a few essential tools {blow dryer, flat iron, big round brush, comb, Pantene Pro-V Stylers Heat Protection Spay and Pantene Pro-V Stylers Flexible Hold Hair Spray} and you can create this same Red Carpet Look everyday.

Model Latina takes over South Beach this Memorial Day!

If you are anything like me, you enjoy watching reality TV. At first I was mostly against watching these types of shows but now I can sit here with a straight face while saying that I love to watch reality TV. Please don’t get me wrong, not all shows are the same, which means that only a very few get a passing grade and my approval.

One of my favorite reality TV shows is Model Latina. 


Have you heard of  Model Latina on nuvoTV?  If you haven’t, then let me just say, you are missing out on a great show. I like to think of Model Latina as the Latin version of America’s Next Top Model, but much more engaging and exciting. This is one of the reasons I just can’t stop watching it!

The concept of having ten (10) beautiful Latina women living together under the same roof  is more than enough reason to get anyone to sit down and catch every single minute of every small detail of what happens between the ladies during this high intense competition as they all fight to be the model to win $25,000 plus a modeling contract.

I say intense mainly due to all the different challenges these ladies have to put themselves through. This upcoming season is not going to be anything different, only better. One of the challenges to be on the watch for this season is a challenge where the ladies will have to be under water. In my opinion, that is very intense!

Watch a sneek preview of what's to come and Meet this seasons Latina Models .

Not only will we be watching the ladies compete against one another, but we will also get a closer view of all the fun in the sun that these lucky Latina contestants will have while living in South Beach. This season promises to deliver more excitement than past seasons. We will have a chance to live vicariously through the show as we will be exposed to the beautiful beaches, a look at latest fashion trends, and of course, getting to know the contestants and celebrity judges.

The judges that have been selected for this season of Model Latina are some of BEST artists in their chosen field. Do you recognize these fabulous Latino faces?




As you can already imagine, most of us ladies are super anxious to get a closer look at Carlos Ponce and Franco LaCosta! I can’t wait to see them both in action as they work side by side with the contestants as their mentors and judges.

It’s a good thing that we only have a few days to wait for the season premier.

Model Latina is entering its fifth season, which airs this Monday, May 28th, at 10pm ET/PT only on nuvoTV.

If this is your first time hearing about Model Latina, over the weekend check out  nuvoTV’s YouTube channel – Stylish and Sexy Latinas - where you can catch up to this new season premier by watching all the mini video episodes that have aired in past seasons. If you are already a loyal fan, as I am, you can watch your favorite moments and live them all over again before Monday!

Please do not forget to watch the fifth season premier of Model Latina this Monday at 10pm! If you think you might forget to watch, then DVR the entire season! You will definitely be glad you did!
