Your hair is your crown, and few people understand that better than Zendaya.
The actress’ hairstylist, Coree Moreno, sat down with ET to reveal the creative process behind her latest looks, including the dreamy, flowing styles she’s been rocking during The Odyssey press tour.
And when inspiration strikes, it usually starts with Zendaya herself.
“Normally she’s found a reference and it’s my job to birth the vision,” he says. “She’s open with intention and sure about how she wants to look. I love the challenge of unveiling her deepest hair desires.”
Lately, those ideas have leaned into soft, cascading lengths, which Moreno created using Bellami’s Flex Weft in Dark Brown and Tape In extentions in Chocolate Rebel.
“Bellami is perfect for everything from subtle fullness to custom hairpieces for everyday wear,” he explains. “They have such a diverse shade range, and I love mixing multiple colors to create depth and texture.”
These days, he’s been using the brand to create an airy, lived-in aesthetic.
“I love ethereal, undone feels,” he shares. “Not manipulating the texture and letting waves and curls live in their true state is the future of hair.”
His advice for channeling that effortless energy this summer is refreshingly simple.
“Whether it’s polished or deconstructed, braids are perfect for unpredictable weather, giving the hair direction and order while beating the heat,” he explains.
His favorite finishing touches? Beaded scarves, fabric wraps, hats, and headbands are all on his list of must-haves this season.
“Hair accessories are the perfect way to elevate a style without thinking too hard about it.”
