Salma Hayek may have gotten hitched to a French billionaire but she still has her feet on the ground. This was evident with the way Salma Hayek thinks and the way she treats people. Just recently, Salma Hayek took time out to support an important man in her life—not her husband but her hairdresser. Robert Vetica, her hairdresser launched his book “Good to Great Hair” at Beso and even if she was newly wed she brought along her wedding band bling but sorry folks because the actress would not allow any questions about her new husband billionaire Francois-Henri Pinault.

Salma Hayek was however vocal about her new project which is her own line of cheap cosmetic line. The new cosmetic line being conceptualized by Salma Hayek is in response to the recession so expect it to have the Salma Hayek signature but with a cheap price. She said she is developing the cosmetic line with a drugstore and have been doing research for the product for three years now. Her thrust, to get the essence of the really expensive cosmetic products in such as way as to allow everyone to use it at an affordable price. She is also active in breastfeeding campaign.

All you need to create your own great hair style at home!

Vetica preaches that professional techniques are not difficult; readers just need to know what to do and follow directions. In this ultimate hair styling book, he delivers to the reader all they need to know to create great hair at home or direct a professional stylist. He reveals insider secrets and techniques for recreating magazine and celebrity hairstyles, and how to adapt the look for the average reader’s tools and time constraints.

The book is divided into three parts; 1. hair treatment and care, 2. hair cutting and styling techniques and 3. how to find a look for your faces structure and personal style. Even beginners will be able to style their hair like a pro while professional stylists can fine tune their skills with Vetica’s secrets and shortcuts. Step-by-step diagrams and photos illustrate different styles and how to work with tools of the trade such as curling irons, hair clips, and blow dryers. Before-and-after photos show readers the best hairstyles based on face shape, bone structure, type of hair, age, and personal style. Vetica peppers all of the techniques with his experience and insights gained from working with Hollywood’s top celebrities.

While Salma didn’t attend The 81st Annual Academy Awards she did pop in to the Vanity Fair After Party like previously reported. There she wore a black Balenciaga dress and paired it with tights. While her hair was very Hollywood glamour in lose waves. Salma looked so beautiful at the event!

At the after party we got the first look at Salma’s wedding ring and she congratulated her good friend Penélope Cruz who became the first Spanish actress to win an Academy Award.

Vintage shoots update part cuatro. Check out this great shoot of Salma taken back in 1999 for Glamour magazine. Miss Hayek took part in three movies that year including some of her most memorable roles like Dogma and Wild Wild West. I personally loved Salma’s hairstyle back then, she looked so beautiful!

Is she or isn’t she attending the Oscars? That is the question. Just yesterday I posted about Harvey Weinstein’s confidence in Salma making an appearance and today a report with L.A. hairdresser-to-the-stars (and Salma’s personal hairdresser many times) Robert Vetica said that Salma isn’t attending the ceremony; but she will be at some after parties!

Q: Where will you be watching the Oscars this year?
A: I have to do Marion again, but then I have a feeling I’m gonna be at Salma’s house. She’s not going to the ceremony, but I’m gonna get her ready for the parties afterwards, so I’ll hang out there and watch the Oscars. She’s like family to me. We grew up together.
