Kenna created sporty plaited updos for the David Koma Spring/Summer 2013 show at London Fashion Week.

Show: David Koma

Stylist: Kenna for ghd

The inspiration: Glamorous tennis player.

The look: Double ponytails with plaited detail.

Get the look: Apply ghd Style Smooth and Tame Cream to the lower section of hair. Use the ghd air to quickly blow dry hair smooth, training the roots back toward the crown of the head.

Section hair horizontally from the recession to 1cm above the ear, then run a ghd Oval Dressing Brush over the hair to create a smooth texture. Spray with enough ghd Style Final Fix Hairspray to create sheen and secure in a centre ponytail.

Take the top section of hair and add a generous amount of ghd Style Root Lift Spray for texture. Work texture in by combing back hair with the ghd Detangling Comb to encourage raised lines. 

Join the top section to the tied ponytail by plaiting the sections into one braid, using two fingers to create the narrow top width, ensuring the braid is not too tight and not too loose. Plait to nape and tie temporarily. 

Taking the remaining bottom section of hair, begin a French plait mid-way down and then tie at the nape.

Tie the top plait and bottom plaits together ensuring the top plait is as flat to back of head as possible. Remove the temporary tie from the bottom plait.

Apply ghd Style Final Shine Spray to the pony and then use the ghd V Gold Max Styler to flatten, keeping the ponytail in a narrow line.

Use ghd Style Final Fix Hairspray to keep flyaways around the temples and behind the ears down. Tweak flyaways back for a windswept, active look and apply another layer of ghd style final fix spray.

Key products: ghd Style Smooth, Tame Cream, Oval Dressing Brush, Style Final Fix Hairspray, Style Root Lift Spray, Detangling Comb, Style Final Shine Spray, V Gold Max Styler
