This season’s bold updos command attention with stylists sculpting twists, knots and braids. Backstage at ISSA, L’Oréal Professionnel Session Stylist Malcolm Edwards created dramatic couture-coiled hair. With a tight ponytail as a base, he teased and curled sections before twisting them into his masterpieces. For Temperley, Edwards’ young, flirty version involved brushed-out pin curls spilling over a topknot. L’Oréal Professionnel Artist Amit Abraham chose two fishtail braid ponytails, which were woven together into a rectangle at Bibhu Mohapatra,—a futuristic twist to an otherwise classic low bun.
Artfully Discheveled
Cool girl effortlessness was the ‘it’ style. At Anthony Vaccarello, L’Oréal Professionnel Stylist Anthony Turner created slightly ruffled, bedhead texture inspired by the women of Paris. It was achieved by blow-drying volume into the roots and setting face-framing sections into rollers. L’Oréal Professionnel Lead Stylist Odile Gilbert took her girls out of bed and into the city for Alexis Mabille—she used shine oil on the roots and a curling iron throughout to create imperfect waves reminiscent of being caught in a surprise rain shower. At Houghton, L’Oréal Professionnel Artist Laura Polko used a bit of mousse before creating soft waves that were more beachy than city. A deconstructed knot was the look at Maison Martin Margiela; L’Oréal Professionnel Lead Stylist Paul Hanlon tied two uneven sections together and secured with elastic.
Playful Ponytails
There's no time like winter break to do a little beauty experimenting! Your hairstyle is a great place to start because even small changes can make a big difference. If you're timid, try a temporary change, like adding a new accessory into your routine. If you're bold, consider bangs. Grab your comb, some hairspray, and a few bobby pins and don't forget to deep condition! Whether you like updos, braids, or major waves, you'll reemerge from vacation with a new look that you can soon be calling your signature this season.
