What's easier than sporting beachy waves all summer long? Nothing. According to celebrity stylist, Oribe, the undone style can be worn well into the wintertime and he proved it by styling Nicole Kidman for the September issue of V magazine. Have you ever seen her like this? Hot. Here's how to turn your tousled, care free hair up a few notches into polished, sex kitten waves.
- Apply a light weight gel to 2-inch sections of wet hair and use your fingers to style creating waves and texture.
- Diffuse it or let it air dry.
- Spritz a beach spray like Oribe Apres Beach Wave and Shine Spray from mid shaft to the ends for shine and separation.
- Smooth a light weight serum through for added control.
- Curl two inch sections with an iron in random places for added drama.

Last night the 45th annual Country Music Awards were held in Nashville, TN and while it may be no surprise that Taylor Swift won "Entertainer of the Year," what may surprise you is that she, Carrie Underwood, and Nicole Kidman, are all considered blondes. I spoke with Wella Professional Colorist, Aura Friedman, to get the scoop on the hair color trends of the 'gals down south.
“The beauty of blonde is that the color palette is virtually endless and finding the right blonde to complement an individual’s skin tone and features is the key to making it look natural,” she remarks.
