Tips & Warnings
Forgo the extensions. If your hair is already long (below the shoulder to mid-back), you don't need hair extensions to get hair like Jennifer Hudson.
Avoid using too much styling product because it makes hair look stiff and dull. Jennifer Hudson's hair is shiny and natural looking, so if you want to get her style, take it easy on the products.
