kit harington sported one of the most
iconic hairstyles of the 2010s as jon
snow from the series game of thrones and
although it's now not as popular as it
was when game of thrones was airing it
is still a highly sought after look
desired by many and with longer natural
hairstyles coming back into popularity
as we approach 2022 the world is going
to need more options than just the
timothy chalamet haircut so we are going
to take a look into the past and revisit
this iconic hairstyle so if you're
somebody with long naturally wavy or
curly hair and looking to achieve this
jon snow inspired wet curly hair look
look no further because that's this
week's episode of jessie's barbershop
so for this look and any other look that
requires this wet finish the name of the
game is going to be locking in as much
moisture as possible and if you're
familiar with the channel and myself
you'll know that i have very dry hair so
we're going to have to use a product
that does a really good job of
maintaining moisture and combating frizz
so what i've chosen to use is bumble and
bumble's anti-humidity gel oil this is
the first time that i've used this on
the channel but over the past couple of
months or so it's been my go-to product
for maintaining my really really dry
frizzy hair
so we're going to be applying a generous
amount and how much you're going to be
using is completely dependent on your
hair type however a general rule anytime
you're trying to achieve a wet look is
more is more and with my dense coarse
hair type it's very important that i
make sure everything is fully saturated
so i'm not holding back
now i'm just applying the product
through the hair making sure not to miss
the underside that's a common mistake
people make don't just put the product
on the top layer of your hair make sure
that the entirety of the head is fully
saturated especially with a drier hair
texture like mine inconsistencies in
saturation will really show in the final
look so now what we're doing is just
roughly blocking in the direction and
partings that we want to dry the hair in
and once you're satisfied with that we
move on to the next step which is going
to be blow drying and we're going to be
using this which is called a diffuser
it's basically an attachment that goes
onto the blow dryer and just kind of
softens the airflow so rather than the
blow dryer just blowing your hair
everywhere you can kind of maintain the
structure and shape that you had set it
in when it was wet and that's going to
be a very important concept as we go
through this style because now that
we've applied the product it's basically
creating a cast around our hair strands
and that cast is what's going to be
locking in the moisture as we dry our
hair with this diffuser so as you can
tell i don't have a very clearly defined
curl pattern my hair doesn't naturally
fall into nice ringlets it's a little
bit chaotic and crazy but we're going to
try to take advantage of that to achieve
this specific look
hey quick teaching point here as you can
see especially when i start out i'm
holding the blow dryer pretty far away
from my hair the reason for this
involves that cast that i'd mentioned
that the product creates as the product
is drying around these hair strands and
creating the cast we want to disturb
that process as minimally as possible
this is how we're going to maintain that
shine to give it that wet look
appearance that makes sense a good tip
for this is point the blow dryer at your
face if it's too hot and you can't
handle it you're probably holding it too
close so back it up to a distance where
it's comfortable and you can still feel
the heat and then you should be good to
go
we're back and we're just going to
continue this process all around the
hair making sure we maintain that same
distance and just be really patient with
it because it does take a little bit of
time and that's okay but as you can see
as we continue the process the look's
starting to come together and now that
things are like 70 to 90 dry we can
start manipulating the hair a little bit
what i'm doing is just lifting the hair
at the hairline and setting it in that
volumized state trying to emulate this
like smoother a little bit that he's got
towards the front of his hair here and
once that's done i just finished drying
and begin to mold my hair into the shape
that i want it because now that it's dry
and that cast is set we don't have to
worry as much about pulling that curl
pattern out and then that's pretty much
it the curls may loosen up throughout
the day but for the most part if you
don't mess with it too much and leave
that cast and it'll maintain that wet
look for as long as it's in there so i
