7 Products That Help You on Your Way to Blake Lively’s Effortless Beach Waves
When she’s not busy trolling her hubby Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively is invoking jealousy amongst us mere mortals thanks to her perfectly tousled mane. She’s one of the few who somehow nail that whole effortlessly flawless look while still looking fiercely glam. Ever wonder what it takes? Here, we rounded up seven of her favorite hair products, from conditioning masks to curling irons.

Coconut Oil
Back in 2014, Lively practically broke the internet by admitting that her mom taught her to put mayonnaise on the ends of her strands in the shower to protect them from drying out while shampooing. Since then, she still sticks to this mantra but has (luckily for us) updated to using coconut oil.
Kerastase Bain ‘Elixir Ultime’ Shampoo
She then lathers up to shampoo the roots, pretty much every other day. And while we have to remember she is a L’Orèal spokeswoman, she’s admitted to loving pretty much all of the Kerastase shampoos.
Wella Professionals ‘Brilliance Treatment’ Hair Mask
She also rarely ever uses conditioner. “My hair can get kind of frizzy and big, so I leave in a hair mask, rather than rinsing it out all the way,” she confessed to Harper's Bazaar.
INVISIBOBBLE ORIGINAL ‘The Traceless’ Hair Ring
Speaking of frizz (finally, proof she’s mortal), if she’s not working and wants a little natural wave, she’ll twist her hair up into a ballerina bun and let it dry. This gives her a wavy yet frizz-controlled look. When trying it yourself, be sure to avoid hair ties that may leave a crease.
L'Oréal Paris ‘Elnett Satin’ Extra Strong Hold Hairspray
When she’s working she adds in a few more products. Lively’s longtime hairstylist, Rod Ortega, spilled his biggest secret to Elle for getting her perfect beach waves. Starting with dry hair, he first spritzes a bit of hair spray all over before curling. That way, hair has a natural, textured look before it’s styled.
T3 ‘Whirl Trio’ Interchangeable Styling Wand
He then gets to curling. Just like us, he loves this three-in-one wand. For Lively’s signature look, he uses the one-inch barrel to create waves, leaving out the ends for a more casual finish. Blake was even spotted using it on a friend.
L'Oréal ‘Nutri-Gloss’ Shine Mist
Finally, he’ll top it off with a drop of hair oil to give her both a shiny and moveable feel. *And cue the hair commercial set.*
