So what does an actual expert have to say about the Fall/Winter 2012/2013 Hair Trends? Well, keep reading to find out what Marc Anthony is predicting.
One ‘Faithfull’ Muse and Two Looks
for
Fall/Winter 2012/2013 Hair
We live
for this season with a massive love for the new fall/winter feeling. Fall’s
fashion is a well travelled look, tailored and at times very traditional yet
fresh. It feels sort of posh from the inside; by that we mean it’s about the
cut and the fabric more than instant impact that blinds you. Hair follows suit
with natural ease and simplicity, a bit more refinement and a versatility that
lends itself to any outfit and any occasion.
There is a bit of
color in this season’s collection (a few designers did bold and bright) but for
the most part the colors are muted. It is nice to not have it be all about
black. We see trousers vs. pants and a very feminine masculine. Sizzi,
the designer for Giulietta, said it best, “I want it to feel traditional but
happy and playful.”
With this in mind we
went to work creating our trends for the season. Our muse: MARIANNE FAITHFULL. That sort of sexy, ‘just
woke up’ look that somehow works with wide length trousers, tweeds and evening
wear. Two looks, one woman and Marc Anthony products.
SOFT AUTUMN WAVES
A dash of the mysterious; so perfect
with this year’s well travelled look. We adore how long the layers are with
this cut. They are softer than we have seen from a technical point of view. We
cut into the ends of the layers to ensure they sort of dissipate vs. just
ending crisply. These waves are a bit more polished than we have seen in the
last while and we love that they are well groomed.
GET THE LOOK:
- Get some movement going: Start with freshly washed hair and a bit of Marc Anthony Dream Waves Beach Spray to get
some volume and wave started. If your hair is fine flip your head over and
scrunch as you dry to help achieve a bit of extra volume as well as
movement. Once hair is dried you will need a large barrel curling
iron, Pro Finish Hairspray and some
clips.
- Curling iron: Starting at the bottom, part hair into 2-inch sections across using
clips to keep rest of the hair out of the way. You want the sections large
because this wave is very loose. Spray with Pro Finish and very loosely
wrap hair around the barrel (start wrapping hair from about two inches
down), holding for a few seconds. As you move up the head begin dropping
the sections lower each time. Repeat this until you are finished.
- Finish: Take a bit of Oil of Morocco Argan Oil, rub
it into your fingertips and then use your fingertips as a comb to work out
the waves into a natural finish. A natural bristle brush will give
this look a bit of extra polish.
FULL FALL VOLUME
This is such a polished, natural
look. Again shorter hair with longer layers is an important message for this
season. We love the definition of the perimeter and the softness of the
interior. A big round brush, some bye.bye.Frizz Blow Dry Cream and Dry
Shampoo is all you
need. 2nd Day Clear Dry Shampoo
is more than just that. Though it is amazing at removing dirt, grime and oil it
is also a volumizer, which is as ‘pro tip’ as you can get...read on! Let’s walk
through the way to achieve this look.
GET
THE LOOK:
- Blow out: A large round natural bristle brush will give you just the right
amount of volume and bend at the ends. You want this look to have a
natural finish so the larger the brush the better. Apply the Blow Dry Cream and blow dry
hair section by section. If your hair is fine roll up and pin each section
after you dry it to help ‘set’ the hair.
- Add shine: Once hair is dry add Oil of Morocco Argan Oil to
your fingertips and run it through your hair before using the natural
bristle brush to give your hair a good brushing. The Oil helps to lock in
shine.
- Volumize: Now, take your Dry Shampoo and apply it to
the scalp; you want to spray about six inches from the root area. Leave it
be for a couple of minutes then with your fingertips shake it out.
Seriously, that’s a wrap.
