While filming her upcoming movie "Materialists" in New York this week, Dakota Johnson stole the spotlight not just with her on-screen presence but also with her laid-back yet chic hairstyle. Sporting an effortless plait, Johnson's look serves as a refreshing departure from the ubiquitous bob hairstyle that has dominated the season.
In the midst of rising temperatures, Johnson's boho braid offers a lesson in keeping cool while still exuding urban sophistication. Unlike the tightly woven Kournikova braids sported by other celebrities like Zendaya, Johnson's braid is artfully undone, starting at a low point on her head. Hairstylist Adam Reed highlights the importance of this positioning, noting how it dictates the overall relaxed vibe of the style.
One of the key elements that contributes to the charm of Dakota's braid is its loose texture. As Reed explains, achieving a similar look requires a texturizing spray to add body to the hair, particularly if it's not freshly washed. Once the texture is set, loosely pulling the hair into a classic plait completes the effortlessly chic aesthetic.
In addition to the braid, Johnson's soft curtain fringe adds to the overall relaxed vibe of her hairstyle, framing her face delicately. This effortless combination of elements not only keeps her cool in the bustling city but also ensures that all eyes are on her impeccable summer style.
