NEW HOT RUNWAY HAIR: LUISA VIA ROMA & DSQUARED2
Last week, Team McKnight jetted off to two of the most celebrated Italian cities for culture and fashion - Florence and Milan. Styling the hair of more than 80 muses at the LuisaViaRoma x British Vogue Runway Icons, followed by the fun and flirty DSquared2 SS24 Co-Ed show, both runways drew on different ideas of glitz and glamour to make for two unforgettable nights.

LUISA VIA ROMA x BRITISH VOGUE
At the Luisa Via Roma Runway Icons show in Florence, '90s power chic ruled, with models wearing sleek, strong, ultra-glossy chignons.
My sculpting Self Control Gel slicked back the roots and hairline, with Modern Hairspray holding the look in place all night long.
GET THE LOOK
Starting at the nape of the neck, apply Self Control Gel into the roots and brush flat. Work up towards the front hairline, brushing the hair smooth.
Secure hair into a low ponytail and apply Cock Grease evenly to the ponytail. Twist the ponytail around itself, gathering all the strands.
Twist and wrap around the base to create a tight, sleek chignon. Secure with grips and Self Control Gel.
Finish with Modern Hairspray to make the look last all night.

DSQUARED2
Moving to Milan for DSquared2 SS24, the girls were channelling '80s big hair energy; the boy’s hair was defined and groomed.

Define and Defrizz on shorter styles for a groomed Do. For coarser or texture-rich hair, apply Dressed to Kill on your ends and work into your hair. For finer textures, use Happy Endings to smooth and Defluff.
