Summary

This week, we’re calling on a hair guru with MAJOR Hollywood glam cred, Mara Roszak. Mara is probably best known as Emma Stone’s hairstylist - and fun fact Mara’s done the hair for five different Oscar-winning actresses on the night they won - Emma Stone twice, Brie Larson, Michelle Yeoh and Zoe Saldana

Mara is the super talented owner of Mare salon in Beverly Hills and in 2021, she debuted her own clean haircare brand called Roz - she started out with just one hair oil and it’s now grown into several skus - and the line is officially now in Sephora stores.

Tune in to hear about:

Sick of heat styling? Mara shares how she gets the best results from air-drying hair
Why “ghost” waves are the new beach waves
How to make peace with your hair texture - and tips on even how to figure-out your own hair texture if you’ve got a lot of different things going on!
How to master a curling iron like a pro so that your style doesn’t flop come summer
Thinking about bangs? Mara shares the chic-est way to wear them in summer 2025
Why a simple misting bottle and a handful of hair pins are your best friends come hot weather season
And we get a sneak peek from Mara about a super cool collab she’s doing with American fashion brand - The Great - the hair towel idea born from a busy mom of an infant!
