How to Get Blake Lively’s Hair

Back in the early days of Gossip Girl, we debated the locks of Serena van der Woodsen and Blair Waldorf, and it would seem as if we finally have a victor, as Blake Lively’s hair has been recently touted as today’s mane du jour, even being hailed as the new ‘Rachel’ by the New York Times!

For all of you ‘Serena’s-in-training’, Nexxus Creative Director and celebrity hairstylist Kevin Mancuso shares his tips on how to recreate the style in four simple steps:

1: Apply a curl enhancing mousse, like Nexxus Gorgeous Curls Curl Enhancing Styling Foam, evenly throughout damp hair.

2: Turn head upside down and blow dry, using fingers to scrunch hair. Once dry, flip head back up and create slightly off-center part.

3: Use a medium size curling iron to create well-defined curls randomly throughout the bottom half of locks only.

4: Finish the look by applying a light coating of a texturizing lotion, such as Nexxus VersaStyler Artistic Designing Lotion, with fingers, separating and loosening the curls as you go.
