    Default Gwen Stefani Hair

    Gwen Stefani's updated Marilyn Monroe-ish hairstyle in her new video 4am looks fabulous!!!! I'm officially obsessed with it! I couldn't sleep last night because I was trying to figure out how the hell to style it like that! Of course I can't figure it out So.....

    I was wondering if anyone had some tips/advice/tutorial on how to achieve this - the more idiot friendly the better!

    oh incase you haven't seen the video heres a link:

    thats not hard to get...just make sure your hair is between chin and shoulder length, with shorter, sideswept bangs...

    Use medium sized hot rollers, leave them in till they cool...remove, and fingers comb. That should do it, but if you need more volume, tease the roots, spritz hairspray on the underside, and blowdry upside down

    I'm glad I'm not the only one! I've always loved and been beyond obsessed with Marilyn Monroe hair style.....this one is so great cause I feel like it's less styles and more current!

    They dont have to be perfectly set, random is actually better. I dont do the horizontal patterns all the way around. I typically do a side part, then work my way down from each side,s o that teh rollers are all parallel to the part, except for the back.

    Hot rollers really arent that bad. If you have trouble with the metal pins, use claw clips to hold them instead, you can get giant packs of them at places like Sally's. And if you dont set a few right, you can always shape the curls up a bit with with a medium barrel curling iron. I just wouldnt use a curling iron all over, as that comes out looking "too perfect" for this look. When in doubt, just keep shaking and touseling

    When I put the rollers in should I roll them up or under?

    Kandie thanks for all of your great input! Sounds like you know alot about hair - lucky you!

    A good way to get that loose wave look MM had is to set the curlers in horizontal patterns, but to wind one row with the rollers winding downward, then the next row with them winding upward. Repeat this over and over again.
