Redken's Runway Report from Milan: GIANFRANCO FERRE & VERSACE with hair by Guido

Continuing Milan Fashion Week, Redken Creative Consultant Guido created an effortlessly sophisticated low airy ponytail, nodding to the 60s, at the Gianfranco Ferre show.  "This is an ultra flattering look on any woman in an almost sporty kind of way.  When you tease and create height at the crown it throws the face forward."

Versace
At the Fall/Winter Versace show, Guido created a super straight, center parted, minimal hair look to complement the Collection.  “The Versace look this season is without reference but still looks rich and elegant without being "done.  It’s very minimal but also very rich at the same time and it’s nice to see straight ironed down looks that is still controlled.”
