[Tue 31/08/2010 10:14:02]

Luckily, the sun was shining as Rosemount Sydney Fashion Festival saw catwalk beauties bare their bikini bodies for the Ella Bache Splash Swim and Resort Wear Show.

Labels including Bond-eye, Colin Heaney, Daughter of the Gods, Karen Neilsen Collection, Lisa Maree Australia and Sol Bellow showcased their new season stock, no doubt enticing the audience to snap up a cossie and hit the beach quick smart.

The models' hair was styled into beautiful, bountiful, cascading curls created by Redken Hair Director Todd Arndt, that perfectly embraced the light-hearted spring vibe.

“The hair has a fun, flirty, Barbie-esque softness with bounce and plenty of movement, seen as the girls strode down the runway. It really encapsulates that resort style; voluminous, glamorous hair,” said Todd.

The voluminous curls had a dry, airy texture and styles were accessorised with cute ‘hello sailor’ hats, bows and braided headbands.

Get the look:

1. Apply Redken Rootful 06 to the roots, lengths and ends of towel dried hair. Blow dry in and create a centre part. This will help achieve a beautiful light, dry texture in the hair.
2. Beginning at the back, take one inch sections of hair and while holding the curling tong vertically, wrap the hair around the wand. Curl the entire head of hair.
3. Set the curls as you go, by pinning them to the scalp and allowing them to cool. Once cool, remove all pins. Using a soft boar bristle brush, gently relax the curls by brushing out the lengths. Use your fingers to help align and shape the curls.
4. Expert Tip: For extra volume in the back lengths, crimp hair at the roots for an
added lift and a fuller look.
5. Finish with a healthy dose of Redken Workforce 09 for volume and flexible hold.
