NYFW Get the Look: Romantic Ponytails at Katie Gallagher SS 2015

Katie Gallagher’s Spring/Summer 2015 collection, Fantasm is inspired by the idea of ‘sad romance.’ Inspired once again by Katie herself, CATWALK® by TIGI® Global Creative Director Nick Irwin developed an airy, romantic hair look that speaks perfectly to Gallagher’s effortlessly chic girl.

Overall Look: Romantic textured-pony

How-To:
• Prep the hair by spraying CATWALK® by TIGI® Session Series Transforming Dry Shampoo on random sections to create an unkempt, textured look.
• Create a center part, about an inch-long from hairline to just before the crown. Pull hair back while keeping the small part intact, tucking behind the ears and securing in a ponytail just above the nape to expose the natural hairline.
•Next, separate a half-inch piece of hair from the pony and wrap around the elastic. Secure with a bobby pin, out of sight.
•Spray the ponytail with CATWALK® by TIGI® Session Series Transforming Dry Shampoo and scrunch with fingers to buckle the hair, adding movement and additional texture. Set the texture with a blow dryer on low heat.
• Loosely pull at natural fly-aways with the palm of the hand to add more movement and amplify the “unkempt” look. Finish with a light spray of CATWALK® by TIGI® Session Series Work It Hairspray.

*Note: To replicate the veiled look seen on the runway, drape fabric around face/head and secure using elastics around the ponytail.
