Owner of Cutler/Redken salons, Rodney Cutler, and his talented team of stylists took to the catwalk to showcase stunning hair. For spring, many of the looks were inspired by airy texture, which complemented a lot of the designers’ style and feel for the clothes. Overall, there was a juxtaposition of beautifully polished and feminine clothes with slightly undone hairstyles. My favorites were the ponytails so I'm going to share how you can rock the look yourself!
Textured Ponytail as seen at Carlos MieleFitted gowns and soft fabrics flowed down the runway at the Carlos Miele show. “We always like the look to be very elegant, simple and feminine,” says Rodney Cutler, the lead stylist for the show. “This season, it’s a little more editorial with a dry, airy texture.”
Rock the Look :
1. Spray Cutler Volumizing Spray into damp hair and blow-dry for volume and texture
2. Set hair with a 1” curling iron, taking small sections and lightly spraying with Redken Forceful 23 Hairspray
3. Rake fingers through hair, starting at the roots to create a disheveled look
4. Create an imperfect center part and pull hair back into a low center ponytail
5. Use a bungee elastics and be sure to apply tension when securing the ponytail, which will accentuate the shape of the head. Lightly brush the ponytail to create an airy effect
“To complement the casual-yet-chic designs, we wanted to do something that was strong and graphic, but still beautiful,” says Rodney Cutler, the lead stylist for the show. “The fishtail braid is cool, understated and worked wonderfully with the clothes and makeup. Plus, the great thing about the braid is that it’s so easy to re-create at home with minimal products and time.”
Rock the Look:
1. Spray damp hair with Cutler Volumizing Spray and blow-dry for volume
2. Gather all hair just below the ear, pull to one side, create a fishtail braid and secured with a small piece of leather
3. Leave a few fly-aways around the hairline to achieve a soft effect
4. Lightly spray with Redken Forceful 23
