Jared Leto, he of the glorious man bun, really made the ladies (and the Internet) swoon when he took the stage at the 2015 Golden Globes on Jan. 11, with his ombre locks styled in one simple but lovely braid. But the Oscar winner, 43, wouldn’t hold the title of Master Plaiter for long!

Jessica Chastain upped the ante on the red carpet braid game in Hollywood on Thursday, Jan. 15, at the 2015 Critics’ Choice Awards, where she modeled one seriously intricate ‘do. The evening’s MVP Award winner, 37, complemented her beaded Antonio Berardi dress with a half-updo that, piece by piece, evolved into a loose, elegant braid, ponytail, and bun hybrid.

When it comes to her beauty choices, the A Most Violent Year actress told Us Weekly that she learned from the best: her mother. “My mom is very much a hippie, and my mom actually taught me about natural beauty, I think, more than anything else,” she shared.
