![]() And still, you assume "that girl is a snob" or "that girl is really difficult." And I will say 100% of the time when I've met someone in my industry and I've come in with those assumptions, I've been proven wrong… you hear things about someone, you meet them, and they're awesome. ![]() So you see them on TV once, or you read one tweet, or you hear one story from someone-but you've never had any face time with that person. I think a lot of times, women have a perception of how someone else in their industry will be before they actually meet them. What's a big obstacle keeping women in the hair industry from collaborating? You're one of the Create + Cultivate ambassadors, and their programs aim to bring women in business together. So if that's the only thing you can buy, get it immediately. It's forever the best thing you can buy for your hair. But if you can only get one thing, I'd say my leave-in conditioner can go on every single hair type. So it should be easier to shop for great things on a budget now. You'd go there for a washing machine, not hair products. It didn't used to have all this great stuff. If I want great hair but I'm not Lauren Conrad, or someone with a huge budget, what one product should I splurge on?įirst of all, I wish Target was around when I was a kid. □□A photo posted by KRISTIN ESS HAIR on at 11:12am PST Y'all are so cute, I can't even STAND IT. Because you've got longer hair, you've got bigger boobs, it's kind of this goddess moment for you-it's like you get natural hair extensions! A lot of my clients say they feel sexier and prettier during pregnancy. It's a real thing during pregnancy, that your hair gets longer and thicker no matter what. How has Lauren Conrad's hair changed since she's been pregnant? Full disclosure: This will be a total tabloid question. Now we have so many more options and that super-shiny look isn't seen as very "cool" anymore, but the color and the wave of Lauren's hair, that's still 100% the most requested thing I see in the salon. And because of the products that are available now, which are more texturizing products-when I first started doing hair, the best products were shine spray, holding spray, and that was basically it. You don't want it to look like there are extensions and gloss. The wave is almost exactly the same, but the texture is a little more matte. What's the difference between the "LA hair" on 'The Hills and "LA hair" now? And people would call the salon and say, "I want the girl who did Lauren's hair." We were slammed. I'd never spoken to a beauty editor prior to appearing on that show or touching Lauren's hair. And we were children! But in so many ways, The Hills really did start my career. Lauren will find old photos or clips and text them to me, too. I still get texts from people saying, "I see you on The Hills!" Still. I was very skilled at hair, but the fame aspect of it? So foreign to me. I'd never been on a reality TV set, especially. No! They wanted it to be as real as possible! They just filmed me doing her hair straight through. Sometimes reality shows aren't "real." Did you have to keep curling the same piece of Lauren's hair over and over? So that was my first taste of "celebrity hair," with the cameras and the press. I happened to be working that day, and she just sat down. ![]() They were filming The Hills at Warren Tricomi, and on the show, they always credited the places onscreen. Lauren literally fell into my chair at the salon. ![]() When I moved to the Warren Tricomi salon across town. ![]() When did you start working with Lauren Conrad? She was so supportive and really cool, I have to say. I was 24, and she was a great client-she passed on her friends, so through her, I met more people in the industry. Did Amber Valletta help your career?Ībsolutely. It was such an epic thing, because it ended up in tabloids, and then it would go into fashion magazines when they'd do stories like "the best haircuts for short hair" or whatever. I did her hair and makeup for the Vanity Fair party, and I almost passed out when I saw photos of her. Then she came back and asked if I would style her for an event. Then she came back and asked if I would cut her hair. Then she came back and asked for a blowout. Her friend came to me, and she came once to keep her friend company. She lived down the street from our salon in LA. ![]()
