Joanna Gaines Shows Off Daughters' Perfectly Wavy Hair During Trip To The English Countryside
HGTV alum Joanna Gaines' daughters have inherited their mother's gorgeous hair. We've gotten to see the style evolution of Joanna Gaines as she built her interior design empire, but the one thing that has remained the same about the former "Fixer Upper" host is her full head of dark waves. In August 2026, Gaines posted an Instagram reel recounting a trip to the English countryside with her two daughters, Ella and Emmie. Part of the reel featured the three walking down a picturesque trail, with their brunette curls on display.
As beautiful as the reel's scenery was, fans in the comment section were quick to mention the family's stunning tresses. "Is this a hair commercial?!" one person gushed. "Gaines girl hair genes run strong," another commenter wrote. Over the years, Joanna Gaines has rarely posted pictures showcasing how her natural hair is different from what we see on TV — though, even without any product, the Magnolia Homes owner's hair is the stuff of dreams. Therefore, seeing Gaines rock her natural waves alongside her young daughters is heartwarming (and makes us a little jealous of their luxurious locks).
Joanna Gaines' hair styling process is so relatable for women with wavy or curly hair
Joanna Gaines almost always looks exceptionally polished. If there's one thing that the complete transformation of Joanna Gaines emphasizes, it's that the interior designer prioritizes her stunning appearance and shiny curls as much as she does her high-quality work. Nevertheless, Gaines isn't afraid to get candid with her audience, even when showing off her unstyled hair. In 2021, Gaines posted a picture to her Instagram story without any styling product in her long hair. "It takes about 1.5 hours to tame this mane. And since it's a reveal day, I'm going to fix 'er up," Gaines captioned the image (per Delish). The unfiltered picture of Gaines' naturally voluminous locks resonated with fellow wavy-haired fans, who understood how much time it can take to style textured hair.
As far as her haircare routine goes, Gaines typically keeps her hair secrets close to her chest. For thick, wavy hair that is often styled with heat, like Gaines', moisture is a must — meaning that the HGTV alum has to focus on the health of her hair to keep her perfect locks shiny and manageable. During a 2022 interview with PopSugar, she revealed that the products in the Oribe Obsessed Set are some of her go-tos. The set includes the brand's Gold Lust Repair and Restore Shampoo, Gold Lust Repair and Restore Conditioner, and Dry Texturizing Spray, all in travel sizes (perfect for a busy businesswoman like Gaines). To achieve volume like Gaines, a texturizing spray from a brand like Oribe is a great product to have in your routine.
