"Here's what most women want when it comes to their hair: to get a [Jennifer Aniston](http://www.allure.com/celebrity-trends/cover-shoot/2015/jennifer-aniston-interview)\u2013level gorgeous style in less than 15 minutes. Is that really so much to ask? As it turns out, Aniston's styling routine IRL takes about that long. She let us in on her lazy-girl hair tips, working out her arms with a blow-dryer, and, of course, the Rachel (a.k.a. the cut she refers to as a \\\"big, horrible mistake\\\").\\n\\n\\n\\n                   \\n\\nThe first thing you should know is that Aniston is very lax about washing her hair. She only shampoos every two or three days and tries to go even longer than that if she can. \\\"I'll use a little bit of the [Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Shampoo](http://www.allure.com/beauty-products/hair/shampoo/2014/living-proof-perfect-hair-day-shampoo-review) [Aniston is a spokeswoman for the company] on my roots on the second day after I've shampooed,\\\" she says.\\n\\n\\n\\nAnd Aniston's daily hair routine is surprisingly simple. \\\"Yesterday it took me 15 minutes to get up, get my hair done, and go,\\\" she says. \\\"I honestly just blow-dry it with my fingers around my hairline, and then I get the roots set, and then I'll let the rest of the hair [air-dry](http://www.allure.com/hair-ideas/2015/air-drying-hair-tips).\\\" She has naturally wavy hair, so if she wants her hair to be straight, she'll quickly blow-dry it with the \\\"big, round brush\\\" her longtime hairstylist [Chris McMillan](http://www.allure.com/beauty/chris-mcmillan) has trained her to use. \\\"I'll whip that out and get a really good arm workout at the same time,\\\" says Aniston.\\n\\n\\n\\nSpeaking of McMillan, Aniston considers him to be both the best and worst thing to happen to her hair. Allow us (or her, rather) to explain. \\\"Letting Chris cut my hair was just so major. He was the first person to really give me a haircut, and he taught me how to actually take care of my hair,\\\" says Aniston. So why was McMillan also kind of a regret? \\\"He gave me the Rachel, which was a big, horrible mistake,\\\" says Aniston. \\\"I mean, it was great at the time, but it was a never-ending legacy for some reason. And it only lasted for about six months because it just was hard to do. I loved it, but I couldn't style it on my own. So Chris also just has that way of [making me be] completely reliant on him.\\\"\\n\\n \\n\\n__Go behind the scenes of Jennifer Aniston's *Allure* cover shoot:__\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n \\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n [#cneembed: embedjs/52f2a97f69702d51bf300000/video/52e9862dc2b4c00c20f885b6.js]||||||"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
