This year’s Met Gala was filled with tons of memorable hair and beauty moments. Beyond Zoe Kravitz’s platinum cropped coif, model Jourdan Dunn’s effortless hair slay look topped our list.
Styled by celebrity stylist Ursula Stephen, who has worked with the likes of Rihanna and Mary J. Blige, Dunn’s blunt cunt ponytail was epic for more than one reason. Sure, she looked fabulous, but the style is one we all can recreate at home.
Following the night’s Comme des Garçons theme, Stephen’s made sure Dunn’s ‘do “emphasized texture and shape with a hint of Japanese inspiration.”
“When creating Jourdan’s hairstyle, I wanted to pay homage to the element of surprise that comes with every Comme des Garçons piece. Rei can take something as simple as a turtleneck and add a huge bow in the back to take it to another level. Jourdan’s look tonight plays on this as a clean and classic look with a surprise in the back.”
To create the look, Ursula shared what products she used: Suave Professionals Avocado + Olive Oil Shampoo & Conditioner ($3.49) to prep Jourdan’s hair; sprayed Dove Absolute Curls Leave-in Detangler ($5.99) throughout hair “for nourishment and shine”; and ended with Suave Professionals Luxe Style Infusion Weather Proof Cream ($3.50) to smooth and protect hair from heat before drying.
After completing the aforementioned steps and making sure her hair was completely dry, Stephen flat-ironed Dunn’s hair bone straight and put it into a ponytail, adding synthetic braiding hair for body and length. “For the striking, blunt look” said Ursula, “I cut the synthetic hair in a straight line across the back of her head to line up with the top of her shoulders.” She finished off the look with Suave Professionals Luxe Style Infusion Anti-Humidity Spray ($3.99).
