Kate Hudson’s Hairstyle Straight

1. Use a smoothing shampoo and conditioner to start out right. These products will help promote sleek and silky hair right from the get go.
2. Apply a spray in/leave in conditioner if your hair is prone to tangles and detangle your hair thoroughly. Then add a dab of either smoothing cream for wavy hair or a shine serum for hair that is naturally straight already.
3. Section off your hair so you’re only working with small amounts of hair at a time. Leave a two inch wide section down and pin the rest up on top of your head so it stays out of your way.
4. Using a blow drier with a nozzle attachment, dry your hair with a paddle brush for smooth hair with some volume to it. To promote smooth strands like Kate Hudson’s hairstyle angle your blow drier’s nozzle down at the section of hair you’re drying. This keeps the cuticle of the hair smooth. Make sure each section is completely dry before you move on to the next.
5. Work your way, section by section, up to the top of your head. Once you are ready to blow dry the very top layers of your hair create a part in your hair (either side or middle) and dry the last layers of your hair.
6. Add shine to your straight tresses by going over your hair with a flat iron. Start a half inch from a section of hair and glide the flat iron all the way down the hair to the ends. Repeat throughout all the sections that need extra smoothing.
7. Finish off Kate Hudon’s hairstyle by using a few sprays of a shine enhancing serum to add instant gloss.

10. Flip your head upside down and dry with a blow drier that has a diffuser attachment to get curls and volume. This will dry the hair but provide gentle enough heat to your curls don’t go frizzy. Encourage your curls to form by scrunching the hair with your hands as you dry.
