Hilary Duff by Nikki Lee
“Hilary had been toying around with the idea of bangs for a few weeks,” reveals Nine Zero One stylist
Nikki Lee, “but I just ignored her, hoping she would forget about them! Haha! - But we finally just
went for it and we’re so glad we did!” Indeed, there are many looks that gorgeous can’t pull off, but
Nikki also knows what’s best. “Instead of doing a full on bang, we opted for more of a curtain bang
that swept to both sides,” she explained, “I used my texturizing shears to do most of the cutting so the
ends would feel light and the bangs would push away from her face.” But of course, that’s only part of
the story. “For styling this look, first I prepped the hair with In Common Magic Myst and Wow styling
cream to provide nourishment and a smooth blowout,” continued Nikki, “For volume I added R+Co’s
Dallas Thickening Spray so there would be extra movement in the hair. I then used a T3 curling
iron to create the perfect loose waves aka whisper waves and a swept bang, finalizing with R+Co’s
Mannequin Styling Paste cocktailed with Tinsel Smoothing Oil for texture and shine. The vibe is very
70s and a perfect way to switch up her look!”
