\"\u201cYes.<\/a>
\nDamn fine, knows it: Michelle Obama<\/em><\/p>\n

Like me, you’ve been wondering for months: I love Michelle Obama’s hair. How do I get <\/em>mine to look like that?<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\u201cHi!<\/a>The search is over, thanks to BellaSugar<\/em><\/a>, via New York<\/em> mag’s “The Cut”<\/a>: Meet Obama’s hairstylist, right, Frederic Fekkai’s Johnny Wright, no relation to Jeremiah. Tresser-of-choice for such elite as Anita Baker, Vivica A. Fox, and Vanessa Williams, he’s the only man the U.S. Secret Service allows to wage chemical warfare against the Negro kink:<\/p>\n

Do you have any tips for recreating her signature hairstyle at home?<\/strong>
\nIt\u2019s pretty simple. The foundation of any hairstyle is the cut. That\u2019s one thing we focus on doing very well here at Fekkai. With that, I am able to switch the hair into like maybe two, three different looks. We try not to give her too many different variations. People want to see her with the same style, especially when it comes to politics; there\u2019s a lot of scrutiny when you\u2019re in that arena.<\/p>\n

I say go back to basics and just keep it simple. Sometimes I flat-iron her hair under, or I use a ceramic curling iron to flip it out at the ends a little bit. With a flat iron she\u2019s going to be able to lock the moisture in the hair. Because she has to get her hair done so often, the flat iron is probably the best tool for her. For an updo, I might do some cascading curls according to how formal the event she\u2019s attending is, but mostly I give her a clean sweep up.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

For moisture, Wright recommends the Shea Butter conditioner from Fekkai and Glossing Cream, and Fekkai Coiff Anti-Frizz creme.<\/p>\n

Mmmm…can’t wait! See you at 8!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
