L'Oreal Professionel for MYER
[Tue 16/08/2011 01:40:48]
Whilst brand ambassador Jennifer Hawkins kept a simple straight style at MYER’s showcase, the hair concept for the knockout spring summer show was for sleek metallic chic.
Under the direction of Brad Ngata, models wore tightly smoothed back glittering buns to add a burst of brightness to the already vibrant collections.

“This show is all about summer which to me, means colour” says Brad Ngata, Hair Director for L’Oréal Professionnel. “The brief was to work with the illusion and reflection of light in the desert that creates a mirage, so I painted colour blocking in glitter onto the models’ hair using two tones for beach model; nude with gold, bronze with gold, pink and red. The colours were blocked together with plenty of glitter to create a reflective surface for a show stopping effect. As the models walked, their hair changed colour in the light, just like a mirage.”
Get the Look
1. Slick the hair back into a low-set ponytail using Tecni Art Fix Max gel to hold every hair firmly in place.
2. Twist the ‘tail’ tightly and wrap it into a tight bun at the nape.
3. Set the hair using a hair dryer with a diffuser nozzle attached. This will ensure there are no flyaways and the low setting dries the hair gently.
4. Spray a non aerosol hairspray (Tecni Art Fix Design fixing spray) to the hair to set it into place.
5. After mixing glitter in a bowl with Tecni Art Fix Max gel, ‘paint’ it onto the hair with a brush. The tonal effect of using two colours meant the colours could fade into each other from the bun to the hairline for a brilliant reflective effect.
