Fast, Fabulous Hair: Brooke Burke at the Emmy’s

September 24, 2013 By: Nada Manleycomment

Hollywood mom Brooke Burke always looks gorgeous, and I especially adored her soft, pretty hair at the Emmy’s. The Relaxed Romantic Faux Bob created for Brooke by her stylist, Jonathan Hanousek, is fairly easy to replicate. Jonathan shows us how, step by step: “To create volume and body and hold I applied Wen Pomegranate Nourishing Mousse to towel dried hair.  I used my fingers to create a side part and scrunched waves into the hair. I blow dried the hair with medium heat using a diffuser touching the hair as little as possible while drying so that the waves stay silky and soft.

Using a 1” curling iron I refined the curls on the surface and around the face. To maintain a natural texture I curled each piece of hair in the direction it had dried. Next, I applied a dime size amount of Wen Pomegranate Finishing Treatment Crème throughout the hair to give definition and separation to the curls. Afterwards, I loosely gathered the hair into a ponytail just above the shoulders twisting the pony up. I pinned the pony band at the nape with bobbie pins and created an anchor for my twisted bun. Then I wrapped up the remaining ends and secured with more pins tucking one side loosely behind the ear. My tip is to always check in the mirror tso everything is balanced. To complete the look, pin up any stray curls that seem out of place but don’t over think it. To ensure the hair stays in place for the long night ahead, I finished everything off with White Sands Stuck Up Mega Hold Hairspray.”

What do you think of this look? Would you try this look on your own?
