40 Year old American television actress Jennifer Aniston began her acting career in 1990, appearing in the TV show ‘Molloy’. Her big break didn’t happen however, until 1994 when she auditioned for the huge television hit ‘Friends’ as Rachel Green. Jennifer has also starred in two huge box office movies entitled ‘Bruce Almighty’ and ‘Along Came Polly’.
The ex-wife of Brad Pitt has a stunning figure that she keeps in trim with a carbohydrate, protein and fat balancing diet called ‘The Zone’ and a classically pretty face. She became famous for her poker-straight feathered hairstyle in Friends, which was dubbed ‘The Rachel’ after her character and has never strayed far for having long, luscious golden brown locks.
The Do
This week’s hairstyle is Jennifer’s long, straight sleek hairstyle also known as ‘The Rachel’.
Who’s it for?
This hairstyle is best suited to someone whose hair is natural straight or can be straightened, and is at least shoulder length. For this do, Jennifer doesn’t have a fringe. If you do have one then you can still imitate this style but it obviously won’t be identical.
Treatments
To recreate this do you will need straightening irons, a comb and medium hold hairspray. If you want hair as shiny and healthy as Jennifer’s then you will also need hot oil or conditioning treatments to use before styling.
The Styling
One of the striking features with this hairstyle is its incredible shine. Jennifer Aniston’s hair always looks healthy and shiny and it requires maintenance. The best way to achieve this is to buy a hot oil or intense conditioning treatment from a beauty or health store. There is a huge range to choose from so buy one that compliments your hair type. After shampooing and conditioning, rinse out the treatment with cold water to stimulate the roots and give shine. Pat dry your hair to avoid splitting the ends and comb through a little straightening cream if your hair is prone to waves or curls. Comb your hair into a perfect centre parting and blow dry gently on a low heat, holding each section of hair down with a brush so that it dries straight.
If your hair is wavy or fluffy when it is dry, then you will need to use straighteners. Be sure to straighten it in sections and use a pre-straightening protection spray for best results.
Finishing
‘The Rachel’ is a very simple, minimalist style and looks best when teamed with natural looking makeup and a little subtle jewellery. If you’re going out on the town then take a mini can of hairspray and a comb with you so you can keep it straight and sleek all night.
