I LOVE First Lady Michelle Obama’s style! Especially her super cute bob she’s been rocking for the past few months. Here she is yesterday at the Governor’s Ball talent preview looking super fabulous! Now I’m not sure how her stylist, Johnny Wright, styled her hair, but I can give you a few pointers on how you can achieve this style:

1. Of course, in order to achieve the style, you must have the cut. After that you are good to go! (Get a professional stylist to cut your hair, no botched home jobs please! LOL )
2. After shampooing and conditioning your hair, towel blot and comb properly with a paddle brush or wide tooth comb. Check out my “How To Comb Your Hair” tip, here. (Applying a great leave in conditioner like Nouritress or Jane Carter helps make the comb down process easier)
3. If you have a hooded dryer, sit under it for about 20-30mins, or until the hair is dry.
4. Before styling, apply a light oil and protective heat spray like CHI’s Silk Infusion and Iron Guard.
5. You can section your hair in 4-8 sections, which ever works best for you. In each section, make little sub-sections and work your way up each section with your flat iron. Flat iron your hair from root to ends by slighty bending the flat iron to create a slightly straight look.
6. Go through each section repeating the previous step until the entire head is styled.
7. Finish off with a light holding spray like Paul Mitchell’s Soft Spray.
8. Comb and style until it looks picture perfect!

Sometimes you have those days where you just don’t feel like doing anything to your hair. No curls, no combs, no nothing! What’s your lazy day hair do’? I have short hair so my lazy do’ would be a flat style. What’s yours? Make sure and comment below!

Over the weekend I saw pics of Michelle Williams’ new haircut, but I was so not feeling it. I don’t know but it just wasn’t doing it for me. BUT these new pics of her at Beyonce’s Heat Fragrance Launch party were much better. I’m really feeling the cut on her now! I still say they could trim/thin out the front a little more, but the short ‘do looks good on her.
