Hailee Steinfeld, the actress, singer, and face of Nexxus’s Hy-Volume collection, is entering a new chapter in both her personal and professional life. Known for her versatility—acting in the upcoming Sinners, singing, planning her wedding to NFL star Josh Allen, and running her newsletter Beau Society—Steinfeld’s recent hair transformation symbolizes a bold shift in her journey.
As the brand ambassador for Nexxus’s Hy-Volume line, which promises to deliver weightless lift using air-lift and hyaluronic tubing technology, Steinfeld radiates confidence with her bouncy, voluminous hair. Her favorite style, inspired by the iconic ’90s supermodel blowout, is the perfect match for these new products, which help achieve a salon-quality look at home. “I love how effortless it feels to get that height and fullness, even when I’m just air-drying my hair,” she says.
In a candid conversation with Harper’s Bazaar, Steinfeld opened up about her love for experimenting with different looks, her hair-care routine, and the moments when she truly feels like herself.
On Her Hair Transformation
Having rocked both super-long hair and a bob, Steinfeld feels that her current cut reflects her personal evolution. “Hair is such a form of self-expression,” she shares. “My long hair represented me for a long time, but this new haircut feels liberating, like a reflection of the new phase of life I’m in.” While she admits to a moment of doubt when cutting her hair, she embraced the change without overthinking it. “It was fun. And it grows back, right?”
Hailee’s Go-To Hair Routine
Despite the glamorous blowouts she gets for work, Steinfeld keeps her routine simple when she’s on her own. “I love doing my own blowout. The Hy-Volume products help me get a professional finish without needing help. But on relaxed days, I often keep it sleek and simple with a bun.”
Her Favorite Beauty Products
Although Steinfeld loves to switch up her beauty routine, there are a couple of products that have remained constant. “SPF has always been a staple,” she says, citing Neutrogena’s Collagen Bank SPF moisturizer. Recently, she’s become obsessed with the Nexxus Hy-Volume collection, which gives her the volume she loves. “These products give me the confidence to walk into any room feeling like I just stepped out of a salon.”
When Hailee Needs ‘Me’ Time
With her jam-packed schedule, Steinfeld knows how to carve out moments of self-care. “Acting, singing, and writing for Beau Society are all things I love, so they feel like ‘me time’ in their own way,” she explains. However, she also finds solace in nature and spending time with her dogs and loved ones, relishing the simple joys of life.
Music That Inspires Her
In line with her campaign for volume, Steinfeld is blasting her current music obsessions, including SZA’s SOS Deluxe album and Doechii’s fierce tracks. “SZA’s deluxe album has been on repeat, and Doechii is just a powerhouse. I’m completely in awe of her.”
Brow Secrets Revealed
No discussion of beauty is complete without mentioning Steinfeld’s iconic brows. She credits her mom with teaching her to let no one touch her brows, a lesson that has served her well. “I just fill them in lightly and use brow gel. It’s the simplest thing, but I always carry a spoolie in my bag,” she reveals.
Hailee Steinfeld’s Approach to Beauty and Life
With her new hairstyle and the freedom it represents, Steinfeld embraces the idea that beauty is ever-evolving, just like her. Whether it’s her hair, music, or her personal life, she continues to inspire with her fearless approach to change, authenticity, and self-expression.
