Redken Creative Consultant Guido wrapped up Paris Fashion Week today with two distinct, even edgy looks that perfectly complemented the Louis Vuitton and Miu Miu Spring/Summer 2012 collections.

Redken Creative Consultant Guido created a sculpted, wavy look to match the austere yet glamorous Miu Miu collection in Paris today. “At Miu Miu today, we’re replicating this new type of texture that we’ve seen a lot of this season. Miu Miu is Prada’s “little sister” so we used a similar texture seen in Milan at Prada as a reference for today. The hair is down with a few waves in the front and in the back – it’s finished with Redken’s forceful 23 so you know there’s something in it. ”
–Guido, Redken Creative Consultant

Redken Products Used:
-Velvet gelatine 07 cushioning blow-dry gel
- forceful 23 super strength finishing spray

Create the Look:

- Apply velvet gelatine 07 cushioning blow-dry gel to damp hair and rough dry.
- While the hair is still warm from the blow-dryer, pull the hair into a knot at the occipital bone and let set for 15 minutes or until hair is cool
- Pull hair out so there is a slight wave in the back.
- For the front, create a center part and pull the left and right front sections (separately) slightly over the forehead to create a wave effect and tuck behind the ears (see picture below).
- Finish the entire head with forceful 23 hairspray so the hair is completely stiff to create a very hard looking texture.

Redken Creative Consultant Guido created a French twist with an edge today to pair with the lovely, luxurious Louis Vuitton collection. “Today is the last day of Fashion Week and at the Louis Vuitton show, we’re creating an easy updo, a French twist with bits sticking out so it’s a little bit punky. We took inspiration from the Marc Jacobs show in New York and evolved the look with a dryer texture for the Louis Vuitton woman. Some of the models are wearing tiaras and this is overall a very pretty look.”
–Guido, Redken Creative Consultant

Redken Products Used:
-Aerate 08 all-over bodifying cream-mousse
-Wool shake 08 gel-slush texturizer
-Fashion work 12 versatile working spray

Create the Look:
-Apply aerate 08 all-over bodifying cream-mousse into to damp hair and blow-dry.
-Apply wool shake 08 gel-slush texturizer all over to hair for texture and a matte finish.
-Pull hair away from the face and into a French Twist. Pull a few pieces out at in the back.
-Finish with fashion work 12 versatile working spray and secure the headband.

"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!"
