Khloe Kardashian's Long Loose Waves - How To Copy

Khloe Kardashian set the Red Carpet on fire last night with her new sizzling red hair.  Even though Khloe ditched her traditional dark chocolate hue, she kept her trademark long lush length.  She showcased her beautiful new red color by wearing her hair cascading down into loose waves.

Khloe's loose waves can be achieved by anyone with shoulder length or longer tresses by utilizing a round brush, a blow dryer and the appropriate hot iron.

Follow the steps below to snag Khloe's luscious long waves:

1.  Detangle hair completely.

2.  Cleanse hair using desired methods (no poo, diluted shampoo, water only or regular shampoo). 

3.  Rinse out cleansing products and gently squeeze hair with fingertips.

4.  Apply desired rinse out conditioner concentrating on the middle to the ends (from the ears down).

5.  Use fingers or a wide tooth comb and while conditioner is in hair, gently detangle tresses.

6.  Rinse, allowing a tiny bit of the conditioner to remain.  Finish with a cool/cold final rinse.

7.  Towel blot to remove excess water and use wide tooth comb to finish any detangling.

8.  Apply desired styling cocktail including leave-in conditioner, defrisant and/or curl enhancing or straightening creams.

9.  Separate hair into 6-8 equal sections.  Use a 100% boar bristle round brush and blow dryer to dry hair completely.

10.  Once hair is completely dry, apply a heat protection spray.

11.  Use either a straight iron to deconstruct undesired curls and/or waves or use a 1-inch curling iron to cur hair into 2 inch sections.

12.  Once hair is completely cool use fingers to tousle and arrange into soft waves.

13.  If desired, use iron to fine tune waves along the perimeter.

14.  Finish with a with a mist of anti-humidity or holding hairspray to set the style and prevent frizz.

While it may seem like a lot of steps to recreate Khloe's style, there are several shortcuts you can incorporate.  You may wish to wash your hair the night before to save time.  You also have the option to utilize a long finger diffuser rather than a round brush and blow dryer.  For those with natural waves and curls, a long finger diffuser can create beautiful texture without any help from a hot iron.

Experiment with the steps above and substitute your own secret styling tips for a long loose wavy style just like Khloe wore to the 2011 People's Choice Awards.
