Get the look: 'the hollywood glam wave'

London Fashion Week had the pleasure of hosting RIXO’s AW22 Presentation, and the hair glam was all thanks to James Earnshaw, UK trade ambassador for ghd. This is 'The Hollywood Glam Wave': if the 30s met the 70s, fell in love and had a baby, we think it'd look a little something like this… In a haze of shine, volume and movement, James brought all the glitz and glamour you’d expect in a Hollywood hair revival. The collection captures the essence of ‘The Golden Age of Glamour for women’s fashion’, and celebrates the opulence and splendour depicted on the Hollywood screens at the time. James and his team brought their vision to life using ghd’s new curve thin wand: “I love this tool because it can be used to create so many different styles. For the RIXO AW22 Presentation, it been used to create detailed glossy waves. It’s my backstage secret weapon,” he says.
