If you, like me, can’t live with your regular movie night at home, then you’re probably familiar with Netflix – the American streaming and production company that any good cinephile has a subscription to.

Between the countless shows featured on their website and app (yes, you can use Netflix to watch your favourite shows on the go, during your lunch break, and even to kill time during a flight!), one of their most recent productions has been on a lot of lips lately. What am I talking about? But of Emily In Paris, of course!

The show follows the adventures of, quelle surprise, Emily - a driven American twenty-something from Chicago who moves to Paris for an unexpected job opportunity in Savoir, a prestigious French marketing firm. As she is tasked with bringing an American point of view to the company’s social media strategy, Emily faces a few challenges as she struggles in adjusting to the Parisian way of life.
As the show aims at being a fresh and vivacious “feel good” rom-com, Emily (portrayed by one of my favourite actresses, British-American star Lily Collins) is paired with an eclectic bunch of friends, a work rival and – obviously – a made in France love interest, blue-eyed chef Gabriel.

Whilst Emily juggles between her career, her new friends, a complicated love life and her broken French, there’s two main things that she loves doing: a) taking pictures of her croissants and b) fashion - therefore it’s not surprising that wherever she goes (whether it’s for a run along the Seine, for a fancy lunch break or to her office) she’s always rocking incredible outfits and perfect hair (how does one do that?!).

To celebrate season 2 of Emily In Paris coming out (and the confirmation of another two seasons coming up, whoop whoop!), here at ClipHair we brainstormed and decided it was definitely time to dedicate a blog post to Emily’s hairstyle. I mean, Valentine’s day is approaching too, and if you’re planning a romantic getaway (perhaps to the city of love?) you may want to rock one of these hair do's, as seen on Lily Collins on set!

If you’ve been glued to Netflix’s Emily In Paris, it’s likely you’ll have noticed the protagonist’s perfect hair. Emily, played by our November cover star Lily Collins, has the most immaculate waves set through her long brunette locks. It’s show-stopping hair that is almost as distracting as heartthrob Gabriel and his ocean-blue eyes.

So how to recreate these curls – the kind that look bouncy but not “done”, and don’t immediately fall out? The hairstylist behind the look, Mike Desir, shares his three top tips:

Use hairspray

“You need a product that can give you great hold and soft texture,” he advises. “I love using Bumble and Bumble Spray De Mode Hairspray. ”

Prep the hair

“I started by spraying the hairspray on sections of hair and then dried it in using the Dyson Supersonic hairdryer. Because I was styling Lily’s hair every day during filming, I worried that her hair would get damaged by heat, but the Dyson prevents that. It also imparts shine and reduces frizz.”

Create curls like Emily’s

“I used a one-inch curling iron [GHD’s Curve Soft Curl Tong is just over an inch] for her curls. First you have to decide on how tight you want them to be – taking smaller sections will create a tighter loop pattern and larger sections will create looser waves. Twist the section of hair around the tong, away from the face, wait for a few seconds and then let hair down. Do the same thing uniformly all around the head. Then, when it’s done, I like to use a large comb to brush the waves to keep them all together. Et voila!”

Below, five times Emily’s hair stole all the limelight on the Netflix show.

How do I make my hair look like Emily in Paris?

It is Emily's look in the restaurant—a twisted knot up-do. To create this look you need to section your hair into three ponytails, the first at the crown, the second in the mid season, the last in line with the middle of your ear.

Does Lily Collins wear hair extensions?

And if you're wondering how she managed to grow that incredible hair in such a short space of time we're here to tell you she didn't. That hair is due to a full set of extensions.

How old is Emily supposed to be Emily in Paris?

Emily is 29 years old. Mystery solved. Season two of Emily in Paris is available to stream now on Netflix.
