The Daniel Galvin Advent Calendar - Day 1

DAY 1 - TEXTURED HAIR

Christmas parties a-plenty, it’s good fun to vary your look for each event. Alter the style of your outfits between pretty femininity and edgy masculinity; short sparkling skirts and long elegant dresses; puffy colourful tutus and slim line LBDs… But don’t end the transformations there. Be inventive with your hair! Don’t always reach for the tongs… add some texture.

Trends on the Autumn / Winter catwalk demanded the juxtaposition of numerous materials including fake fur, leather and tweed, and the hairstyles mirrored this style.

Give your hair something a bit different by creating a textured appearance; fusing two different looks together. Slick vs ruffled; neat vs messy…all in the one look.

Frankie, Style Director at Daniel Galvin has offered a step by step guide of how to get your very own textured look…



STEP 1: Separate your hair into three parts: the front two inches of your hair (a), the hair from there to the back of your crown (b) and then tie the lower part in a low pony tail (c).

STEP 2: Backcomb part b (the crown) and pin it at the top of the ponytail

STEP 3: Bring the front part of the hair around to the back and wrap it around the pony tail. Set with a strong hair spray, such as L’Oréal Air Fix and finish with a texture spray, such as the Play Ball Beach Fizz, scrunching up your pony tail to create the desired messy effect. To add extra waves use the Babyliss Professional Curling Tongs.

ET VOILA!!!
