Frederic Fekkai lead stylist Paul Hanlon showed again that you can have your hair done without looking overdone. Last season he created an electro “a la hitchcock” chignon. This season Paul added extensions in order to create a heavy thick hairstyle. His inspiration came from photographer Edward S. Curtis’ portraits of American Indian women. To recreate this look he began a very low braid, which he then tied with a black elastic, leaving the last loop halfway pulled through.
Hair: All products by Frédéric Fekkai. Part the hair slightly off center and apply Strong Hold Volume Mousse to the front of the hair, from the start of the part to just below the ears. Apply Anti Frizz Silkening Creme and Color Care Anti-Fade Top Coat and iron the front pieces to seal in a shimmer. Pull the hair back into a low ponytail and tie the end into a slight knot. Spray Oceanique Tousled Wave Spray heavily to diffuse the hair. Finish with Sheer Hold Hairspray.
