Redken Creative Consultant Guido kicked off Fashion Week in Milan today with a sharp, sleek and shiny chignon at Alberta Ferretti’s Fall 2012 show. Her collection this season was a departure from her typical ultra-feminine wear, designed for a strong, modern woman; it was decidedly darker, more masculine and more architectural. Guido wanted to match this with a hairstyle that was simple but strong.

“There seems to be a toughness going around. Even though Ferretti is a very romantic designer, she wanted something a little stronger than normal. We created a very clean, strict center part and sprayed fashion work 12 and shine flash 02 into the hair. I then used my fingers to rake it down so it’s not too flat – I wanted it to have some thickness. Then I used the shine flash 02 again to add extra shine just before the models walk. It’s a severe look but has a very glamorous, seductive feel to it.”

–Guido, Redken Creative Consultant
