Miranda Kerr's Hairstylist Tells Us How To Get Her New 'Lob'

It's the hairstyle that took one whole year to come to fruition but once Miranda Kerr unveiled her now 'lob' to the world last week, all everyone wanted to know was just how they could emulate it.

Her long, shiny brunette tresses have been the envy of women all over Australia since the 32-year-old supermodel paraded down the Victoria's Secret runway in 2006. But Kerr bit the bullet on Saturday and went for the chop, resulting in an effortlessly chic, layered cut. And we can't get enough.

"Over the last year we were slowly cutting it shorter," Kerr's hair stylist David Keough, the man behind the dramatic transformation, told Yahoo7 Lifestyle.

"The process literally took a year, from chatting to actually cutting," he added.

"There were many conversations and pics involved. But at the end of the day, we were both on the same path."

The LA-based Keough, who has been working his magic as a celebrity hairstylist for the past 34-years, says that while Kerr was definitely down for a light and bouncy 'lob', an Emma Watson style crop was out of bounds.

"I pretty much know the emotional connection with hair when it comes to women," Keough said.

"So of course we were not going to cut it to Mia Farrow length, pixie haircut shall we say.

"Miranda is still attached to her hair, as many women are."

So how to style your Miranda Kerr hair once you get home from the salon?

Keough suggests starting with a volumising shampoo and light conditioner. Then apply a quick spritz of a volumising spray, such as John Frieda's root boost or Bumble and Bumble's thickening spray, to add bulk before blasting your hair with a round brush.

"This really gives your new look lashings of volume," he says.

Next, to get Kerr's enviable, tousled, tresses, Keough recommends using a one-inch curling iron (such as Harry Josh pro tools) and slowly curling one-to-two inch sections of your hair at a time.

"Don't be too fussy about which way you curl it, some up some down, it takes a little practice, but practice makes perfect," he says.

Keough then finishes with a frizz controlling cream, dry shampoo and a blast of hairspray.

"You don't have to be a supermodel to totally rock this hair trend of the season," Kerr advises.

"Just keep the length below the chin, sitting on the collarbone," he says, adding colour plays a big part in this look.

"Colour adds texture and fullness, so it really is up to the individual.

"When you have such a big cut, be confident and sexy and work it," he says.
