Along with its monumental music line-up and endless sunshine, Coachella festival is famed for its ultra-fashionable aesthetic. Sequins and sparkle galore mingle on glowy, sun-kissed complexions and hair, though less-than-pristine, wows in a spectrum of whimsical rainbow hues and boho-inspired plaits.
The style set descended on the Indio Valley with an envy-inducing array of standout hairstyles. From model Alessandra Ambrosio’s pretty French braids and Nicole Scherzinger’s artfully dishevelled waves to simple looks pulled together with printed scarves guaranteed to draw attention away from unkempt roots.
The key is to plump for a look that works well on roughed-up hair and actually looks better as it becomes messier and more unkempt. These celebrities have done exactly that and we can’t wait to recreate their achingly cool hairstyles.
Here are the seven celebrity hair looks we love the most…
Alessandra Ambrosio
Brazilian beauty and Victoria's Secret model, Alessandra Ambrosio, pulled her dark hair into loose, tousled braids on Saturday and rounded off her festival-ready look with tassel-adorned metallic ties and a black fedora hat.
Jourdan Dunn
Supermodel Jourdan Dunn played up her pastel-highlighted, super-straight hairstyle with a printed fuchsia, black and white scarf. The ideal way to hide less-than-perfect roots, this is a look we'll be recreating at countless festivals this summer.
Kendall Jenner
Keeping things simple, the Bumble party hostess, Kendall Jenner, wore her glossy, dark hair in an oh-so-easy up-do which she finished with a sand-hued suede hat.
Mollie King
Pop sensation and fashionista Mollie King showcased a festival-appropriate take on filmstar waves. Created using the styling tools from ghd's new Wanderlust collection, her enviable, glossy curls were kept in check with a number of sleek hair grips. Oh-so-dreamy!
Nicole Scherzinger
The ever-glamorous X Factor judge looked smokin' hot at the Revolve Desert House on Sunday with her hair in loose, effortless waves that tumbled down onto her shoulders. A black straw sun hat rounded off her festival-ready style.
Poppy Delevingne
Double buns win the award for the Coachella 2017 hairstyle and Poppy Delevingne's half-up, half-down take on the trend is a perfect example of playful yet practical festival-ready hair. We like!
Taylor Hill
Never one to shy away from bold colours, Taylor Hill turned heads for all the right reasons at Coachella this weekend. The former face of Topshop kept cool with her hair piled high on top of her head and tied with a statement bandana.
