GLAMOUR columnist Jen Atkin reveals the sleek and shiny hair hacks her celebrity clients swear by



Poker-straight hair with a sharp centre parting and sleek texture are all the rage this season – just look at the glass hair trend that’s dominated catwalks, red carpets and social media this year.

Plus, our favourite celebrities, from Bella Hadid, to Kendall Jenner and Kim Kardashian, have also been sporting the look.

Want to emulate the look? Our resident hair columnist, Jen Atkin, who works with the Kardashians and Jenners, has shared her foolproof guide to getting the look.

Prep is absolutely key to achieving this look


Always prep with OUAI Leave In Conditioner for extra smooth hair and added heat protection. Its a hydrating pre-style spray that also acts detangler and heat protectant for frizz-free hair. I love anything that gets you out of the door faster! Mist onto damp hair prior to brushing and/or heat styling for added conditioning, thermal protection, and frizz-free hair.

My 7-step routine for getting the look

1. Prep damp hair with OUAI Leave In Conditioner
2. Blow dry using the Dyson Blow Dryer
3. Prep hair with OUAI Memory Mist
4. Go over hair with a flat iron
5. Spray a shine mist all over for glossy shine
6. Rub Tancho Stick over flyaways
7. Fill in part with Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Pro Palette

A barber’s brush is my secret weapon

I use a barber’s brush to tame flyaways. Start by using a hair oil at the roots to slick your hair back using a barber’s brush for a shiny/snatched pony or bun. The hair oil is also restorative so it’s a win/win.

A good treatment masque or Olaplex No 3 weekly is also key for super smooth hair. Olaplex is great for delivering protein into the hair before and after any chemical treatments. Many salons will carry it so you can ask your colourist to be have it added to your colour for extra protection.
