On Tuesday, September 15th, the Tory Burch Spring/Summer 2016 New York Fashion Week runway show was held at Lincoln Center. Redken Global Creative Director Guido complimented the boho chic collection with a hairstyle that was the ideal blend of sophisticated and sexy.

“This look gives a nod to the late-50s, early-60s, but it’s not meant to be a completely retro idea,” shared Guido. “There’s a juxtaposition and slight sophistication to it with a little bit of height at the crown, which is super flattering, and then the messy, sexy knot, so it feels like these beautiful women came from somewhere exotic.”
“It’s all about balance – the look is pulled together, but the formality is offset with the softness around the face and a bit of a wet finish,” he noted.
How To Achieve The Look:
1. Spray Redken pillow proof blow dry express primer all over damp hair and comb through.
2. Apply a quarter-size amount of Redken stay high 18 high-hold gel-to-mousse throughout damp hair, focusing on the crown.
3. Blow-dry using a round brush, lifting the top section of the hair to create volume.
4. Backcomb the top section of the hair to create additional height and use hands to smooth hair into desired shape.
5. Use fingers to create a short, off-center part, and then pull hair back into a low ponytail and tuck behind the ears.
6. Mist the length of the ponytail with water and then twist it into a disheveled, messy knot, securing with hair pins.
7. Pull out a few strands of hair from the bun and around the hairline and mist again with water to add softness.
