CATWALK TO CLIENT

Hair remains one of the most influential aspects of the season, setting trends that ripple far beyond the runway

WET-LOOK WAVES AND UPDOS

Wet-look finishes took centre stage emphasising the importance of styling products in your kitbag and on your retail shelves.

Cyndia Harvey’s hair design for Simone Rocha took the form of a semi-updo, forming a dome-like shape that combines the essence of couture with a naive, playful touch.

“THE 60S BEEHIVE HAS ALWAYS BEEN ICONIC, BUT FOR THIS SHOW WE’VE GIVEN IT A FRESH, SLIGHTLY MORE MODERN TWIST. IT’S LESS POLISHED AND MORE EFFORTLESS, PLAYING WITH WAVY FRINGES AND TEXTURED WISPY ENDS,” SAID SYD HAYES

TONI&GUY’S GLOBAL CREATIVE DIRECTOR COS SAKKAS AND THE TONI&GUY SESSION TEAM CREATED LOOKS INSPIRED BY THE VOLUME AND DECADENCE OF THE HIGH-SOCIETY IN THE 1960S AND 1970S.

UNDONE TEXTURE

At the Chloé SS25 Show in Paris, Gary Gill led the hair team using Authentic Beauty Concept and described the hair as: “Very undone, loose, and effortless. Think of a chic girl with a nightafter vibe, who’s spent the day shopping at the market, all while channelling a contemporary 70s feeling.”
