Show: Adidas by Stella McCartney Stylist: Antoinette Beenders for Aveda The inspiration: Sports-luxe ponytails that were perfectly prepped to perform - the sportswear collection was presented in an active show that features aerial yoga artists, dancers, spinners and synchronized swimmers. The look: Ponytails and buns with braid detailing at the nape. [gallery ids="23526,23524,23523"] Get the look: Prep the hair according to texture. Use Aveda Damage Remedy Daily Hair Repair to protect the hair from heat then use Smooth Infusion Style Prep on top to smooth hair and help tackle humidity. Section hair starting from the back and blow-dry straight with a large round brush, brushing the hair into the same direction at the nape of the neck. Use a flat iron to smooth the hair, misting Air Control Hair Spray on each section for a strong but barely-there hold. Guide the hair back into a ponytail at the nape of neck and secure tightly with millinery elastic. Comb through the length of the ponytail and smooth through again with a flat iron for a perfectly groomed finish. For the ponytail look: Take a small section from the length of the ponytail and braid, then wrap it around the base and secure with grips For the bun look: Braid the ponytail and wrap around base of elastic. Pin in place. Finish with a misting of Control Force Hair Spray for hold and a glossy healthy looking texture.
