A new season means a new beauty routine. Include your hairstyle in that routine as well with these tips and tricks from the latest fashion runways.
Big Bang Theory
From wispy and sideswept to pin-straight and full, the flirty fringe stole the spotlight at John Galliano, Hermès, Marc Jacobs, and Miu Miu.
GET THE LOOK: Forgo perfectly blunt ends – choppy, layered bangs are more flattering for most face shapes and easier to trim yourself.
Frizz forecast
The ’80s are having a moment – as evidenced by the recent Debbie Gibson Tiffany Reunion Tour. Also making a comeback: crimped hair (with a softer touch this time), as seen at Costume National and Viktor & Rolf.
GET THE LOOK: Break out the crimper if you kept one from back in the day. If not, crib the styling trick used backstage at Oscar de la Renta: Zigzag one-inch sections of hair around U-shaped bobby pins, then set the wave by clamping down on it with a flatiron. Brush out to lighter-than-air perfection.
Plaits please
Oversize, slightly mussed braids – fashioned across the crown or cascading down the back – transformed manes at Valentino and Ruffian for a sophisticated (not schoolgirl) vibe.
GET THE LOOK: ‘It’s a woven look, not a perfect braid, says Kayley Pak of the John Barrett Braid Bar in NYC, who suggests applying pomade to fingers before braiding to ensure a good grip on hair.

Awesome article.

I found that a braid stays in best about two days after you have washed your hair. If you do wash your hair every day use a dry shampoo after you have dried your hair on the part you are going to braid, it will keep your hair for falling out.

Plaits look good. I have tried this but can’t get the pait to stay where I put it. Not very successful with styling hair.

I have curly hair and am loving the plaits! The slightly messy look suits the curly hair really well.
