Valentino autumn/winter 2015: get the hair look

Guido and the Redken team created simply pretty plaits for the Valentino Autumn/Winter 2015 show at Paris Fashion Week. The show: Valentino Autumn/Winter 2015 The hair team: Guido for Redken The look: Loose waves with two tiny braids taken from either side of the face and braided together down the back. The inspiration: "The Valentino woman always exudes this classic, feminine, romantic beauty, which is what the hair is all about this season," said Guido. "It's down with natural, loose waves so it's very easy feeling. I took two small pieces of hair from underneath the head on each side of the face and pulled them back into two little braids. Then, I just pulled out one strand over the face to add something a little more interesting to the eye, but overall it's a very classic look with the hair down and behind the ears." The key product: Braid Aid 03 Braid Defining Lotion Get the Look 1. Spray Redken Pillow Proof Blow Dry Express Primer all over damp hair and comb through. 2.
