Out of the many inspiring beauty looks at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, one that tops our to-try list was spotted on Sienna Miller. The actress hit the red carpet at the film festival sporting an awesome set of twists created by celebrity hair stylist Earl Simms — a look that is just as perfect for a glam premiere as it is for a hot summer day. “This look was all about Sienna looking fresh and whimsical,” says Simms, who is responsible for all of Miller’s stunning Cannes looks. When it comes to doing hair for the summer heat, it’s all about ease and staying cool and this is one look that nails it.

The good news is it’s easy to copy the style on your own. Simms says to start by prepping damp hair with a conditioning spray like Windle & Moodie Foundation Spray. Blowdry with a paddle brush, and add soft waves to the hair by curling large sections using a medium curling iron.

Next, Simms suggests parting the hair down the center and creating a section on each side of the part. Split these sections into two parts and twist together working towards the back of the head. Secure with a hair tie and repeat on the other side. Simms recommends finishing off the look with a light most of Windle & Moodie Light Satin Hairspray

And even if you don’t have a cool lob like Miller, this twisted style is one that works just as well on long hair — and is especially good if you’re in the midst of growing out your bangs this summer.
