Adir Abergel, Hairstylist

At 15, this ambitious guy left for New York to become a dancer. But exactly 2 years and one injured foot later, Abergel knew he needed to make a change. Now he helps beauties like Kristen Stewart, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Biel, and Gwyneth Paltrow make changes of their own...through their stunning hair.

That J. Lo glow is no myth—and it's no accident,either. For years, Scott Barnes has made sure that the world knows all about Jennifer Lopez's fabulous bone structure and dewy skin, thanks to a technique that leaves clients looking like they've been lit from within.

Kate Young, Wardrobe Stylist

It's not every stylist who knows how to make a pregnant celebrity feel her confident best on a red carpet. But that's just what Young did for the very-expecting Natalie Portman, on one of the most important nights of her life—the one that saw her win an Oscar for Black Swan.

Tom Bachik, Manicurist

In Hollywood, a hot, bro-like manicurist is about as rare as cellulite. But Bachik is equal parts skater dude and sensational nail artist. He's also, literally, a world champ in his field, thanks to wins in nail artistry competitions. No wonder Pink and Beyoncé can't get enough of his skills.

Rob Zangardi and Mariel Haenn, Wardrobe Stylists

This team enjoys equal demand among women—Rihanna among them—and men, such as the always-snappy Justin Timberlake. And oh: If you loved the way Kanye West or Jay Z was dressed in a music video, chances are, you're looking at the work of Zangardi and Haenn.

George Papanikolas, Colorist

Mila Kunis's delicious, chocolate-colored hair is not some God-given miracle, but rather the creation of Papanikolas. A fan of a French, freehand technique called "balayage," he likes to create natural-looking color that looks, as he says, "like you've spent a summer at the beach, not three hours in the salon."

Katey Denno, Makeup Artist

January Jones loves to take a risk, and not only with her red-carpet clothes. She also likes to flow a bit futuristic with her makeup, too, and she gets help from D.C. native Denno. Denno, who has only been in the business 5 years, also boasts Chelsea Handler, Julianne Moore and Ginnifer Goodwin as clients.
