WITH LOVE FROM PARIS

I've just got back from Paris, and it feels like Fashion Month was over as soon as it began! It's my busiest month of the year, and this season has been no exception, with #CoolGirlHair rocking the runway and Feather Fever taking over once more. 

Catch up with my looks from Paris Fashion Week below, and get inspired for the coming season!

WITH LOVE FROM PARIS

VIVIENNE WESTWOOD SS24

Finishing fashion month with fresh, healthy Cool Girl hair, try recreating these relaxed, effortless waves with this backstage #Transformation.



GET THE LOOK

STEP 1
Prep hair with Cool Girl Volume Shampoo and Volume Conditioner for instant volume, thickness and body.

STEP 2
Once dry, divide hair into 3 sections and mist Modern Hairspray through hair for hold and heat protection.

STEP 3
Braid each section and secure with a small hair band at the ends.

STEP 4
Gently tap over each braid from roots to ends using a pair of hair straighteners. Leave hair to cool completely before unravelling each braid and shaking out the waves with your fingers.

STEP 5
To smooth, apply Dressed To Kill Define and Defrizz Creme through the waves. Finish with a final mist of Modern Hairspray.

   

TAKE A LOOK AT HOW TEAM MCKNIGHT CREATED THE LOOK BACKSTAGE AT VIVIENNE WESTWOOD SS24.

 

BALMAIN SS24

Natural and clean low ponytails kept a fresh, uncomplicated feel to the show. Modern Hairspray added hold and shine, keeping the look simple and sophisticated. 

GET THE LOOK

STEP 1
Hair was prepped with Cool Girl Volume Cleanse and Nourish, and treated with Cool Girl Bigger Love when time allowed to give a natural volume boost and carefree texture whilst deeply nourishing and hydrating the hair at the same time.

STEP 2
On straight hair, undone waves were added using a medium barrel curling tong and set with shine using Modern Hairspray.

On curls, natural textures were hydrated and defined with Happy Endings Nourishing Balm.

For textured hair, we braided long cornrows; and afros were nourished, smoothed, and groomed with Dressed To Kill Define and Defrizz Creme.

STEP 3
Hair was gathered into a low ponytail at the nape of the neck to show off the natural textures, and secured with a black hair tie.
