Stylish and affordable? Yes, Kerry!
We are seeing many knockout looks for this year's Met Gala, which is themed all around Catholicism. But Kerry Washington brought black girl magic in a Ralph Lauren golden dress and sky-high natural locks.

Kerry's gala look was styled by hairstylist Takisha Sturdivant, who used Tangle Teezer's detangling brush, which is $15 at Sephora, y'all!

And while I can't promise y'all that you will look like Kerry Washington, Sturdivant did give As/Is the tea on how to achieve the look.
First, make sure that you shampoo and deep condition. Sturdivant noted to keep conditioner in the hair, if possible.

If you want a lil' extra oomph in there, add a few extensions for drama and volume!
You'll then want to blow the hair out with a hair dryer and air diffuser, which is going to help the hair go "into a more voluminous Afro," Sturdivant noted.

Afterward, you'll want to loosen your curls. Sturdivant added: "I loosened up her curls and then I teased her roots all around to shape her thick curly hair in place."

And finally, add a lil' accessory in there for good measure! Bam, now you're Kerry Washington. Okay, not really, but a girl can dream.
