5 steps to snag Jennifer Lawrence's braided updo

  • Our take on Demi Lovato's latest album
  • Beauty Spy: Fresh faced and simple Ann Marie E.
We absolutely adore her for her kick-butt persona as Katniss from The Hunger Games, but we also have to admit that Jennifer Lawrence is always nothing but flawless when it comes to her red carpet appearances. So, naturally when we saw her hair in this to-die-for braided updo at the Golden Globes, we just had to figure out how to do it with our own locks. Luckily, Dove Celebrity Stylist Mark Townsend gave us the step-by-step. Try it out tonight, and before ya know it, Ms. Everdeen won’t be the only girl on fire…

 

Step 1: Start out by applying curling mousse to damp locks. Then, blow dry with the diffuser attachment on your hair dryer. This helps to encourage natural curls, Mark says.

 

Try:
 

Dove Nourishing Curls Style + Care Cream Mousse, $4, walmart.com

 

Step 2: Choose random sections of your hair and mist with some hairspray before wrapping them around a ½ inch curling iron. Scrunch curls gently with your fingers.

 

Try:
 

Dove Style+Care Strength & Shine Flexible Hold Hairspray, $4, walmart.com

 

Step 3: Starting at the top of your head, create a few loose braids on either side of your temples. Braid all the way until the end of your hair and tie off with an elastic. (It’s best to use a clear elastic so you won’t be able to see it!)

 

Try:
 

Studio 35 Beauty Small Polybands hair ties, $3, walgreens.com

 

Step 4: Gather the braids and the rest of your hair at the nape of your neck and twist into a bun; pin the bun in place with as many bobby pins as you need.

 

Step 5: Spray hair with extra strong  hold hairspray to keep everything in place throughout the night, says Mark.

 

Try:
 

Style + Care Strength & Shine Extra Hold Hairspray, $4, walmart.com

Like four times this trimester for gym class I claimed I "forgot" my gym clothes because I didn't feel good, had a hurt foot, or plain didn't want to do gym. (My gym teachers makes you run laps no matter is your sick or in pain.) I am know failing gym and my mom found out sometimes I don't bring my clothes with my friend. All my other grades are above A's and my gym teacher said if I keep remembering my clothes I can bring my grade up to an A. I am afraid that my parents will yell at me. I also am I afraid I won't make high honor role (I always do). How should I explain this to my parents??

 

hey! You have to be honest with them. Tell them you don't like gym and you try to get out of it. Gym is not reason to let your average slip. It's a pretty easy A all things considered, and would it be worth it to you in the long run to put up with it if it improves your grades overall? Think about it. good luck girl!

Hey girlie,


I can only imagine how tough things are for you. Because we wish you only the best, it’s extremely important that you speak to a trusted adult, such as a family member, doctor, guidance counselor, teacher, etc. You don't have to talk to your friends about it if you're not ready, but speaking with an adult will help!

MOD!
My room is pink and paris-themed, but now I'm kind of thinking I'd like something else. Painting isn't an option. How can I make it seem more orange and purple-ish?

Hey girlie,

If you can't repaint, maybe you could make a few changes, like a new bedspread or drapes that are the colors you want. You could also put posters or decals on the walls if you can't paint them!
