Emily Blunt looked gorgeous with her 1920’s inspired look at the Wolfman Premiere in LA. Create her look from home with these DIY tips from her stylist, Laini Reeves!

Laini Reeves, Owner and Creative Director of Essensuals London (www.essensualslondon.com), took inspiration from Emily’s vintage style to create a new take on the 1920’s up-do.

Hair Tutorial:

To set the mood, Laini made a custom flapper style accessory – a peacock feather fashioned to an elastic headband. Laini took the hair and twisted it up, over and into the band, keeping in tight to the head. The messy texture of the hair helped to modernize the look.

Step 1: Start with hair that is smooth and glossy. Laini has been using Shu Uemura Essence Absolue while on tour with Emily, a light blow dry lotion that helps to smooth hair and give great gloss. Apply this prior to blow drying.

Step 2: Gently scrunch dry hair to encourage a natural wave and boost texture

Step 3: Secure the headband and twist hair up and over around band, to back of head with messy bun at nape of neck

Step 4: Loosen a few strands to create a more modern, soft, tousled look

Step 5: Finish with a light holding spray
