Kiera Knightly Beauty Breakdown for Marie Claire

2 0 2 1

I have always loved Kiera Knightly, and her old world beauty. I especially love her newest look, and was able to get the low down on how to recreate her hairstyle. 

For this month’s Marie Claire cover, Keira Knightly was styled by Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Fashion & Celebrity Stylist Ben Skervin.

THE LOOK: A roughed up, simplistic bed head style with soft, natural looking elements. The face framing layers and fresh look had a rock ‘n’ roll edge that complemented her cool and modern style. Here’s how Ben suggests getting this look:

1.      First start out by prepping wet hair with Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Boost & Lift Foaming Air Mousse for lightweight volume.
2.      Rough dry hair, using fingers to give texture and make hair appear less finished.
3.      Part hair on the side. Then take a small amount of Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Color Gloss Crème and scrunch into the ends of the hair, creating soft waves and a textured finish.
4.      Finish the look with Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Extra Firm Hold Hairspray to hold the style in place.

GHD Gold Professional 1/2″ Styler

I have complained and whined in many a blog about the ongoing battle I have with my hair.  Although I adore being a natural redhead, I loathe the fact that I have the biggest head of hair this side of Texas!  It’s big.  Pageant queen big.  And it takes an army of hair tools to get it to flatten, smooth, and be de-poofed!

Paul Mitchel Super Skinny

Being half Italian and half Scottish I have the weirdest combination hair ever!!  It’s red, crazy thick, and doesn’t know if it wants to be wavy or straight.  It’s big…Miss. America big!  I am always flat-ironing, blow drying, and putting all sorts of de-frizzing products in my hair to tame the beast.  

Well, thanks to Self’s “best of beauty” recommendation, I decided to give Paul Mitchel Super Skinny Serum a try and I am hooked.  It has cut my drying time in half, and even makes my hair calmer and less poofy when I air dry it.
