The Homeland star and spokesperson for Wella Professionals, Nimrat Kaur, never fails to stun us with her beauty game – always on point! We chatted with Kaur at the launch of the Wella Professionals Elements range of haircare products and she let us in on a few of her hair secrets.
ELLE: What’s a weird, but wonderful trick you’ve tried for your hair?
Nimrat Kaur: Egg yolk. It smells a bit funny but it’s the best thing ever. I use about two eggs yolks for my length and thickness and leave it on for a while and then I shampoo it once it dries off.
ELLE: Who’s the one Hollywood celebrity who always gives you #HairGoals?
NK: Julia Roberts – there’s something so wild and unruly about her hair. She manages to look gorgeous with her hair just as is.
ELLE: What’s the one hair care trick you’ve learned from your mother?
NK: Using Amla and Reetha. My mother has always been all about natural ingredients and I’ve taken that on.
ELLE: What’s your signature red carpet look?
NK: It depends on what I’m wearing – I’m very attached to my look the first time I walked the Cannes red carpet for The Lunchbox in 2013. It’s my all-time favourite.
ELLE: What’s in your haircare arsenal?
NK: I use the Wella Professionals Elements range – the shampoo, conditioner and mask all work well for my scalp.
ELLE: What’s your favourite DIY party look?
NK: I don’t really do much. Sometimes I just put it in a ponytail and loosen it from the top a little to give it a messy look.
ELLE: You have beautiful and voluminous hair. How do you manage it?
NK: I brush it out using a hair serum and a blow dry to tame it.
ELLE: What hair accessories do you rely on to get you through bad hair days?
NK: Small clips. I use little tight pins to simply pin it back – you can create a small braid and pin it.
The Wella Professionals Elements range is now available at all leading salons across India.
