Jennifer Garner has ranked multiple times on Maxim’s Hot 100 list, has been one of People Magazine’s Most Beautiful People, is a trained ballerina, and, at one time, studied to be a chemist (imdb.com). This acting powerhouse has been in several television shows, movies of various genres, and is married to a star of equal brilliance: Ben Affleck. As such, it’s not surprising that so many women want to copy her gorgeous, yet still girl-next-door look.
Her basic hair style is a very easy cut to maintain. She’s got a long blunt cut with long, brow-length bangs. Her color is a deep, glossy brown. If your hair is long, fine or medium textured, straight or wavy, you should be able to copy her look no problem. If your hair is very curly, this look will require a lot of maintenance and may not be for you. If you are a natural blonde, see a colorist for help achieving her color, or just try out her cut with your own natural color. Regular trims keep your hair in good health and maintain your bang length.
To copy her slightly dressier look, simply add a curl enhancer and blow dry. Use a large barreled curling iron vertically all over your head to create a long, loose curl, and allow curls to cool. Finger comb your curls and brush your bangs to one side. Finish with a spritz of shine-enhancing hair spray, such as Sun-Touched Shine Hi Hold & Hi Shine Hairspray – www.aussie.com.
For a red-carpet-worthy look , add a texturizing spray (try Fekkai’s COIFF™ BOUFFANT LIFTING & TEXTURIZING SPRAY GEL) and dry using a diffuser, scrunching as you go. Once dry, curl with a large-barreled curling iron, and tease hair slightly at the crown Then, pull hair back from temples and secure at the base of your crown with a barrette, band, or jeweled clip. Sweep bangs to the side and spritz entire ‘do with a shine-enhancing hair spray.
For Jennifer Garner’s most casual hair look , simply apply a shine serum such as John Freida’s Frizz Ease to wet hair and dry with a paddle brush, flipping ends out slightly for an uplifted look, no curls. Part down the middle or slightly to the side, brush down flat, and finish with hairspray if your hair is naturally curly.
The finishing touch to any of Ms. Garner’s hairstyles is her classic, girl-next-door air. Her makeup is simply and tastefully done: a touch of foundation and powder to even out your skin tone, mascara to accentuate your lashes, and a natural colored lip stick or balm are all you really need. Add your own award-winning smile for the final touch on your own copycat look.
