Soft waves topped with sharp leather
berets were de rigueur at Christian Dior's
fall 2017 show.
French Lessons
1 Prep hair with Redken All Soft Shampoo and Conditioner to cleanse
and add softness and shine.
2 Create a messy part using fi ngers. Allow hair to air dry.
3 If needed, create a slight bend in the length using a curling iron.
4 Divide hair in eight to 10 big sections, depending on thickness,
and spray Wind Blown 05 beginning with the roots to the
midsection, then all the way to the ends.
5 Randomly take each section, twist and roll up hair using
a tissue. Clip hair with a bobby pin and clamp each
section with a fl at iron for a few seconds.
6 Leave hair to set for 20 minutes.
7 Undo each section, and gently blow-dry the top of the
head to help the hair fall downward.
8 Brush hair gently with a boar-bristle brush to give a
natural, fl owy look.
9 Finish by lightly spraying Wind Blown 05 for added texture and
hold.
H
at hair" isn't a term that tends to have a positive association, but
at the presentation for Christian Dior's fall 2017 ready-to-wear
collection, Redken (@redken) global creative director Guido
channeled every model's inner French girl. From short playful bobs to
cascading waves, hairstyles were soft and dreamy. Tissues were Guido's tool
of choice—rolled up into the hair then twisted around strands, followed by
heating each section with a fl at iron. "It's very soft, dreamy, romantic hair,"
Guido says. By creating uneven sections, he lends a lightness to locks for the
ultimate romantic revolutionary style. Très chic !
