3 Boho Hair Tutorials to Try (Even if You Can’t Make It to Coachella)

You guys, it’s officially music festival season. And sure, it’s easy to feel major #FOMO when you’re scrolling on Instagram only to find all your friends flaunting the latest festival trends and rocking out at Coachella while you’re stuck at home. BUT you can in fact channel that festival vibe with a gorgeous (and cleaner-looking) ‘do. So why drop hundreds on festival tickets when you can rock out with some friends on your own and look great doing so? We enlisted our friends at Rachel Zoe‘s salon DreamDry for help with three festival-inspired hairstyles you can try out this weekend. So whatever you have planned — brunch, soaking up the first rays of spring sunshine or picnicking in the park with your faves — you are going to have just as much fun as your festival-going friends.

“The Bianca”

The crown braid is a chic, bohemian braid and a trending style on the DreamDry style menu. Depending on the desired finish, this ‘do can be recreated on either freshly clean hair for a polished finish or unwashed hair for an effortless, undone appearance. For the sake of these instructions, we will begin with clean, dry, detangled hair, ensuring that the hairline is smooth.

1. Tilt your head forward to evenly distribute all of the hair around the head. We are going to create a Dutch braid, AKA an inside out French braid, that forms a halo around the head. Beginning behind either ear, separate a small section, splitting it into three strands, and begin a horizontal braid, incorporating new hair neatly and evenly into each new stitch as you go around the head. DreamDry stylist Bricel Cury likes to use Oribe Smooth Style Serum ($49) on the fingertips for a better grip, hold and shine while he braids.

2. Continue to add hair to your three sections as you travel all the way around your head. Once the braid has wrapped completely around, create a three-strand braid with the length of the hair, and braid all the way to the end of your hair, securing the ends with a small elastic band.

3. To finish off your look, pin the tail of your braid seamlessly on the top of the braid you formed. Using Oribe Superfine ($22) hair spray, tuck away any flyaways and you’re ready to go. A great way to make your braid appear more effortless is by loosening it up a bit by carefully pinching the braid on both sides. This allows for the braid to open up, creating a more undone look.

 “The Fishtail”

1. DreamDry stylist Stephany Preda suggests that, after your hair has been washed and rinsed, you pat dry and brush with The Dream Detangler. Follow by blow drying.

2. Once hair is dry, start by finger-combing your hair from the hairline to the back of your head. Lightly spray with hair spray to keep the hair out of your face.

3. Gather all your hair over one shoulder and divide it in half to make right and left sections. Begin the fishtail braid by taking a small section from under the left section. Cross it to the right, overlapping just like you would if you were doing a standard braid. Repeat on right side and continue overlapping pieces from both sides all the way down until you’re about an inch from the ends. Secure with an elastic band. Finish your fishtail braid by gently tugging on your braid with your fingers to loosen it for an effortless-but-glamorous look.

“The Juliette”

Before starting, make sure you have either a hair tie (clear or black) or bobby pins that match your hair to secure the waterfall braid. Keeping these hair accessories close to you during the end of braiding is crucial to achieve a secure style. Once your hair is clean and blow-dried, make sure your hair is combed through to eliminate any knots that can occur while creating this look.

1. On shampooed and conditioned hair that is still wet, Kérastase Ciment Thermique ($21) on the mid-lengths and ends is excellent as a prep before blow drying, and will help smooth the hair and prevent frizz. Misting your dry hair with the Kérastase Laque Dentelle ($21) hair spray before starting the Juliette helps to add a little hold beforehand as well as taming any flyaways.

2. DreamDry stylist Jenn Bradford says to start by finding your natural part. Once this is done, we will begin on the right side of your head. Take a 1 x 1-inch section on your front hairline right next to your temple. Split this section in two. It is important to never let these pieces out of your hands as these are the foundation to the braid and are your “twisting pieces.”

3. Starting with the two pieces, take the bottom piece of the section and twist it on top of the other piece. Always remember that whichever side of the head you’re working on, to twist the bottom piece up and over the top piece. Once you have twisted these two pieces just once, use your other hand and bring down a small section of hair in between the two pieces of hair you just twisted. This takes some maneuvering with your hands, but once you get the hang of it, it will be smooth sailing.

4. After you bring down the section of hair between the two twisted foundation pieces of hair, keep holding on to the two pieces, and in the same motion as before, cross the piece of hair on the bottom up and over the piece on the top. You will now see that the section of hair you just let down between the two foundation pieces should be secured between the new twist you just made while still using the foundation pieces from your front temple. Never let go of the section of hair from the front temple. This motion is what creates the Juliette braid. Repeat this motion until you get to the back-center of your head and secure the foundation pieces with a hair tie.

5. You will then move to the left side of your head and repeat this entire process until you get to the back-center of your head from the left side. Secure both sets of foundation pieces together in the back of your head. If you want the hair tie to be hidden, you can always take a few strands of hair and wrap them around the hair tie and secure it with a bobby pin to keep it from showing. Or, you can pull down a section of hair over the hair tie altogether, such that the hair tie lays underneath the section of hair.

No matter what kind of day you're having, Marissa Cooper's having a worse one. Mischa Barton's The O.C. character went through the ringer during the first three seasons of the teen drama (remember how she overdosed in Tijuana...and also saw her parents post-hookup after their divorce?).

And during her time on The O.C., Mischa Barton struggled with drug and alcohol abuse. She was arrested for a DUI in 2007 and eventually received involuntary psychiatric hospitalization in 2009 after allegedly threatening to end her own life. And in a new interview, Peter Gallagher (who played Sandy Cohen on the show) says he's "just so grateful" for "the fact that she’s still alive."

  • Mischa Barton starred alongside Peter Gallagher in The O.C. from 2003-2006.
  • The actress has revealed the "trauma" of being a star at that point in her life.
  • Peter recently opened up about how he's thankful "she’s still alive."

The O.C. follows Ryan Atwood, who moves in with the Cohens after getting kicked out of his mom's house, and starts a relationship with Marissa shortly after. While Peter Gallagher played Adam Brody's TV dad instead of Mischa's, Sandy was a definitely father figure for Marissa, and it seems like Peter felt that same responsibility off camera.

"I’ve always felt very protective of her," Peter told The Independent. "First fame is toxic. First fame can kill you. She was 16 years old when she started working with us, so just the fact that she’s still alive, I’m just so grateful."

“You can go to therapy every day for the rest of your life,” Mischa said in a 2023 interview with The Sunday Times. “There’s just a certain amount of trauma [from] all that I went through, particularly in my early twenties, that just doesn’t go away overnight.”

Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage revealed that season 1 overdose not only served as a cliffhanger, but gave “network executives an escape hatch on a performer they had been wary about” (via People). But Mischa Barton got her big break, becoming "how people knew the show," and (thankfully) Marissa recovered — only to die after a car crash in season 3.

As hard as that season 3 ending is to watch, Mischa did have the opportunity to watch it with Rachel Bilson and Melinda Clarke for the first time on their rewatch podcast. "It needed to be a thing, after everything she's been through, but if it's here I'll watch it with you," Mischa says.

"I couldn't do it, Mischa, I couldn't do it," Rachel adds. "But I'm going to do it if you're going to do it."

Mischa says even though being written off the show "was a little bit of a bummer," it wasn't necessarily a surprise. "The character was just doing too much," she told Vanity Fairin 2023. "And I think they ran out of places for her to go. It was not the best thing in the world, [but] there wasn’t much you could do at that point. It was whether she could sail off into the sunset, or die. At that point, I guess it’s better to have the more dramatic ending.”

Former Disney Channel star Dylan Sprouse and model Barbara Palvin are certainly living the sweet life after tying the knot in Palvin's native Hungary. The couple, who have been together for nearly five years, have always been pretty low-key — except for the occasional and undeniably adorable Instagram post (and a stunning wedding!). We are simply ~obsessed~ with this celebrity couple, especially after they pulled out all the stops for their couple's Halloween costume. Keep scrolling to see some of their best moments :').

For Halloween Dylan Sprouse and Barbara Palvin stunned as the Phantom and Christine from Phantom of the Opera. Dylan wore a mask and a black cape, while Barbara wore a beautiful white dress. While the costume is obviously a nod to the musical, it also totally reminds us of their day as bride and groom.

"In Sleep He Sang to Me," Barbara said in a post, quoting the musical's titular number. "@dylansprouse my forever Phantom."

Who did Dylan Sprouse marry?

On the couple's wedding day (July 15, 2023), Barbara wore a Vivienne Westwood wedding gown to celebrate her Hungarian nuptials, bringing together their nearest and dearest for an intimate(-ish) celebration. Barbara and Dylan tied the knot on her parent's property, which conveniently doubles as an event venue, with plans to host an larger wedding in California in the fall.

"This past weekend was supposed to be an intimate event, but we ended up having 115 guests in the end because there are a lot of people we care about, and we wanted them all to be there," Barbara told Vogue.

When did Dylan Sprouse and Barbara Palvin get engaged?

Barbara Palvin on Instagram: "♥️"

After months of speculation surrounding the couple's engagement, Dylan and Barbara confirmed their engagement in conversation with Sprouse's twin brother, actor Cole Sprouse, for V Magazine in June, sharing that they got engaged last September.

"We didn't necessarily feel the need to be fully transparent with the public about that aspect of our engagement," Dylan said. "What we wanted to do with Stephen [Gan, V editor-in-chief] and the V team is make something that was kind of tongue-in-cheek about the nature of private versus public. We're playing with the idea of perception."

Barbara noted that the lovebirds wanted to announce the news "on our time," adding, "When some people leaked the information that we got engaged, our PR team was like, 'Hey, so you guys should do maybe a post about it or talk to this magazine or talk to that magazine…' That really annoyed me because I knew we were building this story up. So, I'm very happy that we ended up doing it our way."

According to People, the couple met back in 2017 after a party when the Suite Life On Deck star slid into the model’s DMs (and as they say, the rest is history). The duo made their relationship Instagram official back in 2018 with Barbara’s sweet birthday tribute for Dylan’s 26th birthday.

Let’s be real here for a second though, we all knew they were endgame the minute Dylan went above and beyond to support Barbara at the Victoria Secret Fashion Show that same year (remember this viral video?). Three days after the fashion show, the Hungarian model told Vogue Australia that she hadn’t had a boyfriend in six years, but had now found “the perfect guy” in Dylan (we aren’t crying, you are).

How old are Barbara Palvin and Dylan Sprouse?

Barbara Palvin was born on October 8, 1993, making her 31 years old. Dylan Sprouse was born on August 4, 1992, meaning he's 32 years old. So there's only a one-year age gap between them!
