Wet Hair Has Never Looked Better and Florence Pugh Is Proof
Just hopped out of the shower, but make it chic.


Is Florence Pugh in her wash-and-go era? On April 28, the actress was seen arriving at a taping for Jimmy Kimmel Live with a full entourage in tow. Ever a lover of the details, the first thing I noticed was her edgy safety-pin earrings. The second was her sculpted wet hairstyle, a look that has started trending in Hollywood (and amongst the street style set) again.
Courtesy of hairstylist Hyungsun Ju, Pugh’s version of the hairstyle featured her shoulder-length hair swept back away from her face. Given that her face-framing bang isn’t moving at all, it’s likely Ju also used quite a bit of gel to keep the Pugh's hair in place. Ju also opted to flip the ends of the actress’s hair, adding a flirty touch to the otherwise very structured style.
Florence Pugh with a wet hairstyle
Wet hair has long been beloved by celebrities like Kim Kardashian, Ciara, and more. Numerous A-listers have been spotted in the look on red carpets in the past, and it’s a mainstay every Fashion Month without fail. Most recently, Bella Hadid wore a version of the look while filming FX’s new series The Beauty. With stamps of approval from some of the biggest celebrities in the media, I do not doubt that this trend will continue its high throughout the rest of the year.
While wet hairstyles typically look intentionally undone, there’s quite a bit of technique that goes into it, so I recommend trying to recreate Pugh’s hairstyle when you have a bit of time to spend in front of the mirror. Keep reading for the products you’ll want to have on hand to get a similar wet look.
