Beauty Spy With Chris Appleton: Kim & J-Lo'S Hair Stylist Reveals His Tips | Glamour Uk

Some of the best hair looks that i'm known for are probably the long sleek glass hairstyle. That was a great trend, the um. It was all about shiny glossy hair and then probably a high snatch ponytail. I think, like a high, snatched kind of red carpet worthy ponytail they're, probably some of the main looks i'm looking for some of the clients that i travel with most often are probably jlo, um kim kardashian um, they're kind of probably the most that i'm traveling with Right now, probably when i went to tahiti with kim for her birthday that was really magical, it was kind of one of those one-off experiences where it's a pinch me moment. Um, it was an island in the middle of the sea. It really was one to remember my most used product is the color wow dreamcoat. I use it to prep every head of hair before any look, because it gives me a transformation in the hair texture which is just unbeatable. I probably go through i'd, say about 100 bottles a year, hey guys. So today, i'm going to show you one of my favorite looks right now: it's the bombshell. Look beautiful, glossy silky hair in a few simple steps. The key look to getting a bombshell wave is about getting a great preparation for the hair, so i'm going to use the colourwell dreamcoat. You can really layer it off and make sure each bit of the hair and each strand of the hair get that amazing technology to transform the texture. So what we're going to do now, guys is we're actually going to take the hair into a slightly off center part. So i like to do this quite roughly just because i think the look should have volume and it should be quite glamorous and natural and then we're going to use the leandro limited, hair, dryer and a bristle brush and just quickly dry. That dream coat into the hair, so you get that really silky finish so now. What we're going to do is we're going to use the vocal rollers to create that bombshell. Look first of all, i spray it with the cool favorite hairspray. This is one of my go-to hairsprays. A little bit goes a long way, so just spritz the mid-lengths and ends now when you're, putting your velcro rollers in you just want to take enough hair that will fit around the roller. So you don't want to take too much hair because it won't fit into the roller grab the ends and make sure they go in nice and smooth and tucked and then you're just going to literally roll that all the way down. And now i'm just going to continue all the way down the head of hair at the side and put them in the back as well. Okay, so now all the rollers are in what we're going to do is you can have a go off? Put some lipstick on get your face, ready, um. I recommend that you leave them in for at least 15 minutes to get some bounce the longer you leave them in the better. If you do have time, i always like to hit it with a hair dryer with some heat, so you can just literally warm it up, so the hair can start to set okay guys. So this is the most important part. Once all of the rollers are out. We are going to use our colorado favorite hairspray. This is going to give us a great amount of control, i'm going to first of all spray that onto the brush, so i'm not going to spray it directly to the hair and then i'm going to add this magic cocktail, which is the colorwell extra shine spray Over the top of my hairspray, this is going to give us a combination of hold and control, but also a great amount of shine. So when we brush out the curls, it has a nice amount of control but also, like, i said, a great shine and we're literally just going to take it from the front and we're just going to brush everything back. So at this point, what you want to do is just keep brushing the hair out until you get the kind of vibe you like to finish off with i like to go back in with the extra shine spray. I'M just a real big fan of this because it gives the hair such a nice shine. It makes the hair look really chic and then there you have it: hollywood, glam bombshell, hair and a few simple steps making sure you use your velcro rollers for ease um. Try it guys, let me know how you get on okay guys, so i wanted to show you some of my top favorite products that i can't leave home without. First up, we have the color well extra shine spray. This stuff really for me, is a lifesaver. I love shiny glossy hair. I think i've become well known for it now spraying this on hair, when it's wet, when it's dry before i'm going to use a heat tool whatever i can, i will use it to transform the texture and give it an amazing shine. Next up, we have one of my favorites, i'm slightly biased. This is my new money. Hair mask this stuff. For me, um is all about expensive, looking luxury hair. It instantly absorbs into the hair. So there's no waiting around it's a deep conditioning mask which hydrates the hair strengthens it and over a period of time, is proven to show a dramatic difference in the hair. One of my other favorites is the leandro limited hair straightener. This bad boy for me is great because we have the temperature control system. So if the hair is finer i'll turn it down, it has color treated i'll turn it down, but if the hair's thick and coarse then i'll make sure i turn it up and for me it's great because the heat is always there. It'S a great performance. Straightening iron and for being essential, one of my other favorites is the leandro limited bristle brush. This, for me, is an essential for everyone, because if i want to brush out waves, this gives me a great control. If i want to snatch the hair up into a high ponytail, the bristles get right through the hair, and if i want to go through sleek glass-like hair, i get a great amount of control and shine. So, for me, a good bristle brush is an essential part of any styling. Last but not least, you might not be able to see these because they're clear, but that's the idea. These are the blanks hair elastics now what's great about. These is yes they're, clear, but also you can't snap them. It doesn't matter how much strength you put in there look using all my muscle, there's nothing worse than you're, getting the perfect ponytail and then the elastic snap in so these have never. Let me down.
