Rachel Zoe Long Wavy Hairstyle


Added: 08 Nov 2015
These glossy tresses are worn over the shoulders showing off the loose waves dressed through the mid-lengths to ends to give this style movement. The top is parted down the middle making this a great look to complement a round face. Regular trims is needed every 4-6 weeks to prevent split ends.

Rachel Zoe sports her signature beach waves here for a trendy bohemian look. Rachel has an oblong face shape and a high rounded forehead which makes her suited to ‘dos that add volume around her face. This hairstyle does exactly that, with the large waves giving body to her tresses and balancing out her face shape nicely. Rachel would be particularly suited to a straight across fringe or even side-swept bangs, but instead she opts for grown out bangs and a side part. This gives her a chic boho look but highlights her high forehead in the process.

Rachel has a fair, warm complexion and light amber eyes. She is suited to golden blonde and brown hair colors the best and could also pull off light copper hair. Here, she sticks with a sunny blonde shade that looks great with her skin tone and eye color. This sun-kissed color is perfect for this Hollywood A-Lister’s overall look.

Rachel Zoe is an American fashion stylist best known for working with celebrities, fashion houses, beauty firms, advertising agencies, and magazine editors.

step 1

Apply styling mousse to damp hair, using your palm as a measuring guide, and evenly distribute it along the hair shaft. Styling mousse will add hold and can help achieve better results.


step 2

Using the corner of your comb and standing in front of a mirror find the middle of your nose and then drag the comb straight up slowly until you reach your hairline and then continue back in a straight manner to achieve an even middle part. A middle part is a great way to make small, round face shapes appear longer and thinner.


step 3

A large hot roller is used to give your hair a larger curl and to add lots of body.


step 4

Take a section of hair no wider than the diameter of the hot roller and comb it through to ensure there are no knots. Place the roller at the ends of the section of hair, being sure to smooth the ends under, and then twist the roller vertically down the hair shaft to the roots and secure it with a pin or clip. Continue applying the rollers throughout your sides until they meet up with the other rollers applied to your head to complete this style. Keep the rollers in your hair until they cool.


step 5

Take the entire back section of your hair, and then starting from the crown, take a smaller section of hair no wider than the diameter of the hot roller and comb it through to ensure there are no knots. Place the roller at the ends of the section of hair, being sure to smooth the ends under, and then twist the roller down the hair shaft until it meets your head and then secure it in place with a pin or clip. Repeat this step until you have reached the nape of your neck and the entire back section of your hair is completed. Keep the rollers in your hair until they cool.


step 6

Apply a very small amount of smoothing shine to the palms of your hands and then run it through the mid-lengths and ends of your hair. Be careful not to add any to the roots or a large amount to any section of the hair as smoothing shine can be very heavy on the hair, weighing it down and making it appear oily.


step 7

To finish, apply a minimal amount of hairspray from an arms length distance to the top, sides and back. Take care not to use too much or you will end up with a white, flaky residue which looks like dandruff.
