Meet Jen Atkin, the Woman Behind A-List Hair

Our favorite celebrities will admit that when they hit the red carpet, they didn’t just “wake up like this.” In fact, it takes a small army to get even one A-lister into shape for any single appearance. And Jen Atkin is the hairstylist behind many of those head-turning hairdos in Hollywood.

With the Kardashians, Jennifer Lopez, Jessica Biel, Rosie Huntington-Whitley, and Katy Perry (to name a few) as clients, Atkin’s hair tips are like gold.

The Clientele:

A set of curls for Khloé Kardashian


A pretty, braided updo for Katy Perry
