KNOW YOUR TEXTURE
Want Chrissy Teigen’s
tresses? Know what your
hair type is first. Strong hair can
cope with sexy layering, but ‘if you
have fine hair, you want the weight
of the hair to work with you so
minimal layers is best’, advises
Jonathan Colombini, Kendall and
Kylie Jenner’s hairstylist. Got
curly hair? Be wary of crops like
Scarlett Johansson’s. ‘This won’t
work for you,’ says hairstylist and
R+Co ambassador Barney Martin.2

Walking out with major regrets
and a pixie cut you hadn’t planned.
‘Look at your face shape,’ says
Tarryn Cherniayeff, co-founder
of Mob Hair. Then listen to your
hairdresser if the cut you picked
out isn’t the best fit for you. ‘They
will be trained in what shapes
work best and will come up with
the perfect look,’ she says.Rosie Huntington-
