When you’re short on time to get ready, which, honestly, is probably most mornings, styling your hair in a bun is an easy go-to and might even seem a little basic. But it doesn’t have to be that way. A low bun done right, like the one celebrity hairstylist Brian Magallones created for the Critics Choice Awards nominee and presenter Keri Russell, can effortlessly give off the cool rich mom vibes that are trending right now.

Russell, star of Netflix’s “The Diplomat”, wore head-to-toe in Chanel and rocked a classically elegant hair style using the very affordable milk_shake Incredible Milk Leave-in Hair Treatment. Before blow drying her hair, Magallones lightly misted Russell’s hair with the leave-in, which helped to detangle and prep her hair for a nice and smooth blow dry. Her finished hair was pulled into a low ponytail, twisted and pinned into a chic, slightly-messy bun.

If you want to achieve Russell’s luxe look, well-nourished hair is a good base to start with, and this leave-in provides you with heat and UV protection, frizz control, higher volume and a lot more. See why this hair treatment (found on Amazon!) is the key to a great hair day.

The milk_shake leave-in is formulated to repair dry and damaged hair, smooth cuticles, prevent split ends, add heat protection, preserve color and detangle. It uses milk proteins to strengthen hair, which causes fewer split ends while also conditioning so it’s softer and shinier with each use. The formula also includes organic Brazilian muru muru butte to hydrate your hair without weighing it down. And the fruit extracts (including papaya, mango, blueberry and raspberry) contribute antioxidants, which add more shine.

Russell’s hairstylist isn’t the only one who uses and recommends this leave in. Customers on Amazon rave about this product by giving it over 10,000 positive ratings. One customer says, “This stuff is 12-in-1, and I’m pretty sure one of those ‘ones’ is magic because my hair has never been this smooth, shiny or obedient.” The luxe and luscious vanilla scent is another stand out for customers. One reviewer says, “[It] has an absolutely delicious, sweet scent that lingers lightly in your hair without being overpowering. It’s fresh and creamy, almost like vanilla and coconut, and I really enjoy the fragrance.”

If you’re looking for an easy way to upgrade your hair routine, this celebrity-stylist approved conditioning and styling treatment is a great place to start.
