Jennifer Aniston hair envy has been going strong since the Rachel Green haircut became the look of the ’90s. Decades later, Aniston is still killing the hair game with her expertly tousled beach waves, crafted by stylist and bestie Chris McMillan. And fortunately for us, McMillan revealed in an August 4th Instagram post that the secret to Aniston’s iconic waves costs less than your morning Starbucks. For real.
McMillan relies on a couple of affordable drugstore products to perfect Aniston’s messy yet put-together ‘do. He revealed via his Instagram caption that he first goes in with Sebastian Whipped Creme ($9.99), a styling mousse used to define curls and waves.
He then takes a Dyson hair diffuser to Aniston’s hair, coupled with a dab of Murray’s Pomade, which, get this, is available on Amazon Prime for $5.59.
Murray’s Pomade, available in several different formulas, is an old school product that is only made up of three ingredients — petroleum, mineral oil, and fragrance. McMillan uses the pomade to define Aniston’s soft and textured waves.
Sure, the Dyson hairdryer might set you back a couple (ahem…three or four) Benjamins. But hey, the products are what count. And thankfully, it won’t cost you much to style your hair like Jen.
