NZ Fashion Week 2019

THE GRADUATE SHOW at NZ Fashion Week 2019 Hair by Mana Dave

Hair by Mana Dave, Redken NZ Creative Director

“The opportunity to showcase the next generation of NZ’s fashion talent is a perfect alignment for our team. As a showcase with nine amazing designers and 25 models, it was important to create a hair story that worked across a range of aesthetics and unique stories. We opted for a low knotted bun with a centre part to create a simple sculptural up style.”

Mana Dave, Redken NZ Creative Director

Redken products used 

Shine Flash 02

Pillow Proof Two Day Extender

Fabricate 03

Fashion Work 12

Create the look:

• Layer and blow-dry Fabricate 03 through the hair to add a natural sheen and more grit to the hair. Continue to spray and blowdry hair until it has a more lived in feel. This will make it easier for styling.

• Create a centre parting at the front hairline.

• Using a cushion brush direct hair into the nape area and create a tight ponytail that sits at the back-nape area.

• Split the tail in two. Twist tightly and spray with Fashion Work 12 before securing with a hair tie on each twist tail.

• Loop a few times and then pin the knots in place with bobby pins.
