Easy Tutorial to Master Kendall Jenner’s Iconic Met Gala Hairstyle

Learn how to recreate Kendall Jenner’s straight-out-of-a-fairytale hairdo on short and long locks!

Kendall Jenner, aka the queen of dark raven hair, graced the red carpet with yet another chic look – a vintage Givenchy dress paired with the alluring twisted half updo. The hairstyle left social media abuzz, urging many hair devotees to recreate the show-stopping ‘do. The hair glam accentuates the cheekbones and eyes by seamlessly keeping the front strands tucked up and away from the face.

The hairstyle is flattering for all hair lengths as the tresses cascade down the back while keeping the volume at the roots thanks to two side rope twists. They visibly elongate the face and create a slicked-back look on the sides. Loose beach waves add a messy touch to the whole glam as if you’ve just stepped out of bed straight onto the red carpet.

Enchanting Waves for Long Hair

We bet Kendall Jenner’s stylists added some hair extensions for a wow effect. But, if you have long hair, you’ll look as magnetizing as the supermodel with this hairstyle. And the best thing is, this style works great for second-day hair, too! Firstly, create soft waves with a mermaid waiver or your favorite curling iron. Use texturizing products for a stronger hold and long-lasting effect.

For the twists that go back on both sides, grab the front section and start twisting it inward. Add some more hair from the sides as you go as if creating a rope braid. Secure the twists with bobby pins at the crown. Make sure the bobby pins stay hidden beneath your hair. Loosen the twists up a bit for fullness. Repeat on the other side. Ta-da! Enjoy your red carpet-worthy glam!

Elegant Half Updo for Short Locks

If you’re a short-haired queenie but still want to channel Kendall Jenner’s Met Gala hairstyle, this tutorial is for you. Start off by twisting your front strands away from your face and securing them with a bobby bin. Grab the lower section at the front and cover your bobby pin with it.

Use a straightener to create a soft wave by clamping the strands with the plates and sliding down while rotating the tool half a turn all the time. Don’t forget to add some hairspray to enjoy your hairstyle all night!
