Yes, you can wear the style all-year round, and many do. But often, the maintenance level is just too exhausting. Summer brings sweat and humidity, and spring and fall are filled with unexpected rainstorms, all of which can immediately snap straightened strands right back into curls and coils. Which means the prime time to pick up the flat iron is \u2014 you guessed it \u2014 winter. And <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thezoereport.com\/culture\/kerry-washington-wintery-white-manicure\">Kerry Washington<\/a> just dropped some of the best <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thezoereport.com\/beauty\/silk-press-tips\">silk-press<\/a> inspo of the season.<\/p>\n<p>While in London promoting her new Apple TV+ series, <em>Imperfect Women<\/em>, the actress stepped out with silky, straightened black hair parted down the center. The mid-length layered cut, styled by hair artist <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/rio_hair\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\">Rio Sreedharan<\/a>, featured a few face-framing pieces and very subtle bends at the end. While still firmly in silk-press territory, the hair still had some body to it \u2014 nowhere near fluffy press territory, but also not quite the pin-straight finish most associate with the look.<\/p>\n<p>Though she\u2019s no stranger to long, straight hairstyles, this is a bit of a change of pace when compared to many of Washington\u2019s most recent looks. In January, she attended the last Park City Sundance Film Festival with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thezoereport.com\/culture\/kerry-washington-braided-ponytail\">blonde boho braids<\/a> swept up into a snatched ponytail, and last fall she promoted <em>Knives Out: Wake Up Dead Man<\/em> in a fluffy, chocolate-brown lob.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sWr iGR\">\n<div class=\"DbX\">\n<div class=\"uES fEt\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"B1N\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"QfP\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"qmt pm7\">\n<div class=\"IWn\">\n<div class=\"ENZ\">\n<div class=\"pxF XJ- mvL s535723676\">.s535723676{padding-top:125%}@media(min-width:768px){.s535723676{padding-top:125%}}<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Kerry Washington with a silk press in London \" src=\"https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/image\/2026\/2\/25\/3a6e0fb5\/637711859_18567739183016006_3567087793420511175_n.jpg?w=400&amp;h=500&amp;fit=crop&amp;crop=faces&amp;dpr=2\" class=\"N4z nIy\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"EGE\">(+)<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"_-g wvJ\"><cite class=\"AA0\"><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DVG_qdrDzi-\/?img_index=1\" class=\"mPC\">@sofi.adams.photo via @kerrywashington<\/a><\/cite><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<div class=\"IWn\">\n<div class=\"ENZ\">\n<div class=\"pxF XJ- mvL s535723676\">.s535723676{padding-top:125%}@media(min-width:768px){.s535723676{padding-top:125%}}<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Kerry Washington with a silk press in London \" src=\"https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/image\/2026\/2\/25\/e8f7a03d\/637706771_18567739717016006_6974410667443107523_n.jpg?w=400&amp;h=500&amp;fit=crop&amp;crop=faces&amp;dpr=2\" class=\"N4z nIy\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"EGE\">(+)<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"_-g wvJ\"><cite class=\"AA0\"><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DVG_qdrDzi-\/?img_index=1\" class=\"mPC\">@sofi.adams.photo via @kerrywashington<\/a><\/cite><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"yOD GLK\">\n<div class=\"ki0 kpP\">\n<div class=\"MNV\"><\/div>\n<p><label for=\"lightboxCheckbox-451783847\" class=\"QNb y8V St5\"><button aria-label=\"open lightbox\" class=\"kMc\"><\/button><\/label><\/div>\n<div class=\"C1C\">\n<div class=\"ZXG\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"LOc\"><\/div>\n<p><button class=\"ikQ Xfx\"><span class=\"Od1\">INFO<\/span><\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"olh\">1\/2<\/div>\n<div class=\"xCo\"><button class=\"ikQ VkL\"><\/button><button class=\"ikQ Olc\"><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The impeccably pressed hair wasn\u2019t the only perfectly wintery element of the ensemble: On her fingertips, the <em>Scandal <\/em>star wore what appeared to be the same navy blue polish she donned at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thezoereport.com\/culture\/best-bafta-beauty-looks-2026\">BAFTAs<\/a> earlier in the week.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"fX2 rhF jIS\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"lqj TnP\">\n<div class=\"BMP\">\n<div>(Stay Up To Date)<\/div>\n<div class=\"nnm\">Become A Style Insider<\/div>\n<div class=\"P8h\">Join The Zoe Report\u2019s exclusive email list for the latest trends, shopping guides, celebrity style, and more.<\/div>\n<div><button type=\"submit\" class=\"Ex8 qgj\">Submit<\/button><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"g-0\">By subscribing to this BDG newsletter, you agree to our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bdg.com\/info\/terms-of-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\">Terms of Service<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bdg.com\/info\/privacy-policy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\">Privacy Policy<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thezoereport.com\/newsletter\">Subscribe to our newsletter &gt;<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>.page-451777763{&#8211;slot4:#0e111c;&#8211;slot5:#ffffff;&#8211;slot7:#0e111c;&#8211;slot11:#0e111c;&#8211;slot13:#0e111c;&#8211;slot14:#0e111c;&#8211;metaColor:#0e111c;&#8211;navColor:#0e111c} (Celebrity) Kerry Washington Just Dropped Some Fabulous Silk-Press Season Inspo Do I&#8230; want to flat iron my hair now? by Eden Stuart 35 minutes ago Mike Marsland\/WireImage\/Getty Images Ask anyone with textured hair, and they will tell you: Silk-press season is a surprisingly short window of time.
