Kate's great

Kate Hudson has had to fight for red-carpet room this week with a myriad of Hollywood beauties staring in Nine... but this lush blonde pony helped her stand out!

Celebrity hairdresser David Babaii gives us the downlow on how he styled her hair:

Get Kate's look!

1. "I prepared Kate's wet hair by massaging a dime size amount of my David Babaii for WildAid Hair Polish into her hair. For greater control, I parted her hair into four sections (both sides and crown leaving the nape area free). This helps achieve the perfect blowdry."

2. "I dried each section straight, giving the ends a soft rounded finish with my David Babaii for WildAid Blow Dryer. For added lift and volume, I sprayed some David Babaii for WildAid Volcanic Ash Root Amplifier."

3. "To finish, I french-braided her shorter layers to sweep hair back and away from her face. For hold, I used my Mise en Plis Light Styling Spray. It's like oxygen for the hair! It doesn't weigh your style down or make it feel tacky. At the end of the night, Kate's look was completely fresh without any product build-up."
