This is the REAL story behind that Kendall Jenner heart hair Instagram

If you scroll through Kendall Jenner’s Instagram, you’ll most likely notice that she lives an incredible life filled with exotic vacations and photoshoots, celeb BFFs, and a plethora of stylish clothes fit for a model.

And then… you see it. The most-liked photo on Instagram in 2015. It features Miss Kendall Jenner sprawled on the floor in a stunning, lacy gown. Her eyes are closed, making for a Sleeping Beauty-esque vibe. Most importantly, Kendall’s dark locks are arranged to look like a blossoming flower. Everything seems picture perfect.

Then again – there is the old saying: You never know what goes on behind closed doors. Based on Kendall’s latest interview with Vogue, it seems that this is definitely the case with the photo seen ’round the world.

“I was having a bad day. I wasn’t in the flow. I was like, ‘Everyone sucks.’ That’s when I did my best image,” Kendall explained, according to E! News, adding that she wasn’t even 100% sure she wanted to post the snapshot in the first place: “I was lying in bed and messing with it. And I thought, ‘Is this good?’ And I just posted it, and I remember looking at it right away and having a lot of likes and saying, ‘Huh.'”

At the time (May 2015), Kendall was on a yacht with sister Kylie, Gigi Hadid, Bella Hadid, and Hailey Baldwin. These four were the ones who arranged Kendall’s hair into heart-like, flower petal shapes because teamwork makes the dream work.

Considering that Kendall is beloved on social media (and has the flower hair photo to prove it), she has some advice for those who want to impress their followers. “It has to be organic,” says the model. “It means you really can’t plan it out.” Kendall also advises us all to not post too much because it will leave our followers wanting more.

It’s also important for Kendall to remember that social media isn’t everything. She asserts, “‘Cause it’s so not real life – to stress out about a social-media thing.” (Agreed!)
