A lot of women ask me how they can get the simple, low maintenance hair they see on the runways. Well, having done a few runways myself, here is a a quick simple trick that will give you that model hair. Most importantly, it's translatable to everyday life.Start with moose on wet hair. I personally like using the David Gardner Magical Mousse as it is literally a magic potion I keep in my kit for many needs. It adds volume and shine to straight styles as it also helps to hold and rejuvenate curls. Most importantly, it's rich with proteins to help protect from heat styling damage. You gotta love that! The trick mousse is to use enough for your hair, even a little bit more than you think you need for the proper hold and style. Moose has a light enough consistency that when you don't have enough, your hair may just eat it up.
Then, use a blow dryer with a diffuser (for wavy styles) or a concentrated nozzle with a round brush (for straighter styles), I like using the T3 myself, but most importantly, point the dryer away from your roots. If not, you will probably see some unwelcome frizz.
Once hair is dry, put on more mousse. Focus product mostly on the middle parts of the hair with left-overs on the ends and roots. It may be contrary from what you may have heard, but it will give you more control. This will make it look like you have 5 times more hair. Use your fingers to work in your style instead of a comb or brush. These simple techniques will give you a clean look, that's not completely undone, but softly structured. Who likes running their fingers through stiff hair, right? Ready? Now go work your model Holiday hair, girl!
