Hair by L’Oréal Professionnel – Pretty Sweet

One of the key styles to come out of the Spring/Summer 2012 fashion shows is pretty, feminine and wispy as seen at Richard Nicholl, Doo.Ri and Aigner.

1. Begin by spraying tecni art pli from root to tip then use medium size rollers to set the hair.

2. Take the rollers out of the hair, blast dry and backcomb through the mid lengths and ends with a fine toothed comb.

3. Sweep the sides back into a chignon, keeping the top and front sections loose.

4. Take the top section and twist around loosely securing with L’Oréal Professionnel tecni art air fix. Separate out the strands of hair with a soft bristle paddle brush.

5. Finish by teasing out the front section to give a feminine, wispy fringe and set with air fix for a perfectly tousled finish.

This look was recreated by Cristiano Basciu, stylist at Richard Ward Hair & Metro Spa, London. Cristiano has worked on fashion shows, including Stephen Jones and Pucci, and for MTV reality series My Super Sweet 16.
His favourite look of the season: “The romantic, ultra-feminine looks. I love Milan’s bouncy blow dries – glossy and very ‘La Dolce Vita’”
