Hilary Duff’s perfect pop album, “luck… or something,” has been with us for just over two weeks now, and, in that time, we haven’t stopped thinking about her album cover hair once.
Celebrity hairstylist and frequent collaborator, Barb Thompson, is the architect of Duff’s hair in this new era, creating timeless styles across music videos, tour dates, promo and, most importantly, the album cover shoot. Thompson says, “On set for Hilary Duff’s ‘luck… or something’ album cover, I wanted her hair to feel sleek, luminous, and effortless with a soft, natural bend — not too wavy and not too done.”
Read on for a breakdown of Hilary Duff’s album cover hairstyle including the exact Biolage products Thompson used.
Get the Look:
- “Prep the hair with Biolage Hydra Source Daily Leave-In Tonic for lightweight hydration and slip, then layer in Biolage Bodifying Mousse at the roots to give subtle structure without adding bulk.
- After blow-drying, use a 1.5-inch iron through the lengths to create a polished, shiny finish while maintaining movement.
- Finish with a light veil of Biolage Complete Control Hairspray to hold the shape while still allowing flexibility and touchability.
- To complete the look, apply Biolage Smooth Proof Serum through the ends to make the hair look like it isn’t freshly done — adding a little shine and a little separation for the ultimate cool-girl finish.”
