Redken's Saturday Runway Report from Milan: BOTTEGA VENETTA, JIL SANDER & ROBERTO CAVALLI with hair by Guido

At Saturday’s BOTTEGA VENETTA show in Milan, Redken Creative Consultant Guido was inspired by rich, 60s glamour and created two looks to compliment the collection: a textured 60s ponytail and a 60s teased, high volume textured French twist.

- Gather hair at neck and secure into a low ponytail, making sure hair covers the ears

- Lightly spray hairspray, forceful 23 all over for dry hold. Make sure not to saturate as will weigh style down

- Take a piece of hair and wrap it around the ponytail to cover the elastic and pin

- Spray a forceful 23 on your hands and run lightly over the style to smooth any fly aways

JIL SANDER

At Jil Sander’s show in Milan, Guido was inspired by classis 60s culture and created a hairstyle from a wig wrap. "The style is very simple from the front but deceiving as its quite intricate from the back. The clothes almost look futuristic so 60s era hair is a great compliment – the 60s was a very feminine and liberating time and had great shapes."

Create the Look

- Divide top of hair into 3 sections. Take the two side sections and braid 1/3 down and tie off. Criss cross braids and wrap them around themselves in a clockwise pattern securing with pins into a chignon-like base.

- Take sections and apply heavy amounts of hardwear 16 gel for hold and shine and begin wrapping around entire head, keeping the swirls in place with forceful 23 hairspray.

- Keep swirling towards the center of the head until you reach the end of the hair and have covered the base knot completely.

- Finish with heavy amounts of forceful 23 to hold the style.

ROBERTO CAVALLI

For Roberto Cavalli’s Fall/Winter Collection, Guido created a damp, separated long style with center part, noting “Sexy hair that's still sophisticated and feels easy but still has that classic Cavalli attitude.”

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
