My hair muse for today is Nicole Richie. Here's how I recreated her look:

I washed my hair with Herbal Essences Tousle Me Softly Shampoo, $4.29 and Conditioner, $5 because I wanted to create Richie's tousled, wavy style.

Once out of the shower, I immediately applied Herbal Essences Tousle Me Softly Mousse, $2.97 from roots to ends to help avoid frizz.

All worked out nicely, except for one little problem -- I have short layers on top that didn't blend well. My solution? I simply pinned them back with a couple of bobby pins.

This hairstyle was really easy to create in my naturally thick, wavy hair. What do you think?
