Celebrity hairstyles by Michelle Sultan

We’ve been cooing over these celebrity hairstyles that all have one thing in common: they’re the handiwork of award-winning hairdresser MICHELLE SULTAN. With a little know-how and the right products to hand, you can sport A-list tresses too!

Alesha Dixon

Alesha Dixon’s sleek edges

“I’ve always had a thing for shiny, hyper-glossed hair,” says Michelle. “You don’t need to apply a ton of product to get this effect: blast damp hair for extra texture and apply a tiny amount of Design Essentials Edge Tamer along the hair line with your fingers to flatten baby hairs and control flyaways.”

Jennifer Hudson

JHud’s super-smooth length

“There’s an art to achieving smooth locks, especially on long hair,” Michelle explains. “Kent Brushes AH6G Paddle Brush is my go-to. Start by taking a small section and run it through the large base of the brush, applying heat as you go. This lessens the tension and requires less arm work compared to using a round brush.”

Zendaya

Zendaya’s high-shine pony

“For this look apply a few pumps of Color WOW Dream Coat Supernatural Spray,” Michelle recommends. “It’s a silicone-free spray that performs like a holding gel, only better. Sweep the hair into a ponytail keeping it flat at the crown and then comb down any bumps before fastening.”
