My Favorite Gossip Girl: Jessica Szohr

Jessica Szohr is known for her beautiful wavy hair.

Okay, so Blake Lively does have really beautiful hair (see my post below!), but lately I’ve been coveting the ‘do of a different Gossip Girl star: None other than Jessica Szohr, who plays boho chic Vanessa Abrams! Her hair is always full and wavy, which I totally adore. My favorite look of hers so far is this half-up, half-down style that makes the most of those wonderful waves. I would be willing to bet that her stylist used a 2 inch curling iron to create this look. Actually, it’s so easy to do at home that I wouldn’t be surprised if Jessica did it herself! Here’s how: Separate dry hair into one-inch sections and spritz with a lightweight hairspray (this helps set the curl/wave so it stays put all night). Then wrap each section around the barrel of your 2 inch curling iron. When you’ve curled all of your hair, gather the front part of your hair (leaving a few wispy pieces loose in front) and connect them in the back, at the crown of your head, with a pretty barrette or a couple of bobby pins that match your hair color for a subtle effect. Boom! You’re ready to move out of Brooklyn and start dating a Nate Archibald of your very own! Jessica would be proud.
