As Dolly Parton once said, ‘the higher the hair, the closer to God’. And while her enviably tall over-the-top tresses might always be closer to our aim, our limp lifeless strands straggle unforgivingly close to our face. Our happy middle ground goal? A look (and level of height) inspired by Amal Clooney’s stunning vivacious volumised curls.
We hear you saying ‘well that’s all well and good but how do we get that volume?’ Well, we’ve had our ears to the ground to find the secrets behind the effortlessly chic beauty’s hair game. And where do all good secrets come to light? The DMs of course!
Hair sorcerer to the stars Dimitris Giannetos revealed exactly how to master Amal’s volumised mane via a quick DMs chat with InStyle, and we are incorporating every last tidbit of advice into our own routines…
Amal Clooney’s hair secrets
The main ace up her sleeve? Hairstylist Dimitris Giannetos. With his plethora of knowledge and tools at the ready, the stylist has created some of our favourite Amal looks.
Amal Clooney’s go-to hair product
Alright, here’s where we officially spill the secrets. To start with, Dimitris applies styling foam to damp towel-dried hair, which is where the secret product comes in. The incredible Color Wow Xtra Large Bombshell Volumizer ($63 at Adore Beauty) is worked through the hair and gets right to work lifting and volumising.
The wonder behind the long-lasting, natural-feeling spray (AKA the opposite of the crunchy feel you get with some hairsprays feeling) is that it uses polymer and bamboo properties to create that enviable volume.
