It feels as though every time we’re excited about a celebrity hair transformation, we soon realise there was a wig or set of extensions involved. Nicole Kidman’s luscious locks for Vanity Fair? A wig. Jennifer Lopez’s hip-length mermaid waves? Extensions. And look, we can understand why. Trying to grow your hair out without split ends or mass breakage is no easy task. So can you blame us for having our doubts everytime we see Demi Moore’s jet black, shiny, mile-long hair?
Thanks to an Instagram post shared by the actresses hair stylist, Gregory Russell, it turns out that we owe Demi a formal apology for ever suspecting her of wearing extensions as he captioned the post with a clear answer:, “Yes, that is all her own gorgeous hair.” And just like that, we’re equal parts envious and obsessed.
Though he did spill some tea, Gregory unfortunately didn’t reveal a play-by-play on how those of us following along at home can recreate those iconic glossy locks for ourselves.
However, we’ve done some homework of our own and have come up with the following tips and tricks to emulate Demi’s sleek head of hair.
For starters? A hair treatment plan that is going to strengthen your strands from the inside out. We recommend any product from the Revolution Hair Bond Plex Range ($20, Revolution Hair) to enhance shine and reduce frizz.
If you’ve been experimenting with different hair colours and are wanting to restore your locks back to one uniform colour like Demi’s, we recommend using the Scott Cornwall Decolour Remover ($20.99, Chemist Warehouse) to clean up any previous build-up.
As for reducing split ends while maintaining length, we recommend speaking to your hairdresser about the trimming technique, ‘hair dusting’.

What do you think of Demi’s long hair? Are you as obsessed as we are?
Love her hair. Wish mine would grow that long.

She looks great with her long hair!
She does have lovely hair!
Totally obsessed!
She has beautiful hair and it’s her own.
Her hair is beautiful and I also love her brows.
Oh god yes! Love her hair and the whole looks, suits her so well!
She’s had a lot of work done, barely recognised her.
If the article hadn’t of been about her I wouldn’t have recognised her either!
She suits long hair.
She’s beautiful and has great hair!
It is lovely hair.
Unbelievably amazing hair. Demi just rocks it!
I love her hair, she looks beautiful 🥰
Lovely . Lucky lady
She’s pretty much always had long hair (except for the GI Jane days), I never suspected it wasn’t her own.
No i have always thought it was natural too -he has beautiful hair
I haven’t tried any of the products but would be open to trying them all – Love the idea of getting rid of old colour and starting again
I have long hair envy!
Her hair looks fab. Not sure about those cheek implants though.
I cannot remember the last time I had hair that long. Too old now and it just doesn’t suit me anymore but I love her hair.
She has gorgeous hair!
She looks great. I hope I look as good at her age.
Beautiful healthy looking hair.
I think Demi’s hair has always looked amazingly healthy. I loved her short style in ‘Ghost’.
Demi Moore her lovely long dark hair is so very Iconic glad to know that we can also grow our hair Out as well.
I’ve never been able to grow my hair that long
She is so pretty
Her hair is so healthy! I wouldn’t mind knowing exactly what she really uses.
She has gorgeous hair.
To be honest, I’d never thought about whether her hair was real. She must take good care of it.
She looks great with long and short hair. Remember her in Ghost with her shirt hair?
Her hair may be real but her face has more plastic than a tonka toy!

She does have lovely hair. If I hadn’t cut mine for the 4th time in a year a couple weeks ago it might be that long too. I have much denser hair than hers appears to be so it gets extremely heavy when it is that long. I am currently keeping it at mid back length so I have lenght without so much weight. I do agree that you need to really look after it and keep it healthy if you want to grow it long. Trying to not do too much heat styling is always good too.
She has gorgeous hair! I love it
She look gorgeous.Sure she maintain it lot.
Have been trying to grow my hair longer.
I would hardly have known that it was her – she is almost unrecognisable :O
It does look good – so sleek and smooth.
