The cheap and cheerful secret to Kim K’s sleek new do

Cathy Donohue

Kim Kardashian has revamped her look yet again, and we can’t get enough of her shiny new locks.

The Cleopatra-esque look has been her go-to as of late, with Kim rocking the style to her family’s Easter party, an interview on Ellen and with a seriously chic white gúna to the Met Gala.

Wearing a Balenciaga little black dress, the mother of two looked fab with her super shiny hair getting a lot of attention too.

Thankfully, Kim’s stylist Jen Atkin has spilled the beans on the secret to her gorge hair when chatting with the Refinery 29 team and it’s actually really achievable, using ingredients you’ll have sitting in your fridge or kitchen press.

Use either eggs/avocado/olive oil/coconut oil and add the secret ingredient, a crushed-up vitamin tablet or supplement.


The instructions differ, egg whites stay on the hair for 30 minutes, avocado for 15 minutes and coconut/olive oil also needs to stay on for a quarter of an hour.

NEVER mix all the options together because Jen says this works best when you choose one, and only one, to act as the base ingredient.

Pro tip – double shampoo the olive oil mask because that stuff is HEAVY.

Now, go forth and get your hair all shiny in time for your next big night out.
