Get the Look: Chic twist
HAIR TRENDS & HOW-TO’S WITH INTERNATIONAL SESSION STYLIST GUIDO PALAU AND REDKEN.

Newsroom 16 June 2008

  

A FRESH ‘TWIST’ ON A CLASSIC UPDO

Runway fashions took on a new, voluminous silhouette this season and, to complement the trend, updos were modernised with smaller shapes and disheveled finishes.

AS SEEN AT

Balenciaga • Lanvin • Peter Som • Roberto Cavalli

GET THE LOOK with Redken

Make a French twist look modern by bobby-pinning it to the back of the head and leaving the ends sticking out – it's an edgier take on the classic, neatly rolled twist.

For the lived-in updo seen at Peter Som: Apply Redken Thickening Lotion 06 Body Builder to damp hair, then rough dry, backcomb at the crown and create a messy French twist (let some pieces fall free). Mist on Redken Forceful 23 Super Strength Finishing Spray for firm control.

Play with proportion to give a 1950s twist a modern touch: Curl the top section (directing hair backwards), brush out and apply Redken Glass 01 Smoothing Serum. Create a flat twist at the back of the head and lightly tease the hair at the forehead to add a touch of height. Finish with Redken Quick Dry 18 Instant Finishing Spray.
