From cleansing with her brand's culty Hydration Shampoo to her diffusion technique featuring the recently released Pattern Blow Dryer (which our editors previously tested), Ellis Ross takes us through her easy-to-replicate hair care routine. "My journey with my hair has been a long one," she says. "I'm 50, and that journey was challenging and interesting like it is for most of us. I could chronicle my journey of self-acceptance through my journey with my hair."
In the tutorial, the actress sections off her previously diffused hair using Pattern's Hair Clip, then stretches her curls with the dryer's wide tooth comb attachment using high heat and a low blow setting for the ultimate fluff factor. See her entire routine in action by watching the video above.
