Slicked Back Style
Moroccanoil Creative Director Antonio Corral Calero created a supersleek hairstyle that complemented Cushnie Et Ochs' oh-so-modern Spring/Summer 2016 collection. He worked Moroccanoil Treatment and Moroccanoil Smoothing Lotion through damp hair before blow-drying it straight. He then spritzed heat protectant product on models' manes and straightened hair in 3-inch sections to create extra smooth lines.

To achieve the slicked-back look, he sectioned off hair at the top of the head from the hairline roughly three inches back, spritzing it with Morroccanoil smoothing lotion and combing it with a fine-tooth comb before securing it with an elastic. Then, he sectioned off two smaller sections on each side of the head and secured them at the back of the head with an elastic directly underneath the top ponytail. To make sure the prettily precise look stayed in place, he finished off the look with Moroccanoil Luminous Hairspray.

Delightfully Disheveled
Bumble and Bumble's Anthony Turner found inspiration in the "Camden girl" who "dresses really pretty but is a little punky" when creating casual-cool hairstyles for the Creatures of the Wind show.

He started by applying Bumble and Bumble Thickening Hairspray and Bumble and Bumble Surf Infusion before blow-drying hair using his fingers to create a tousled texture. Turner then divided hair into two sections, which he tied into a knot and secured with bobby pins. He pulled a few pieces out for a lived-in look before sealing the look with hairspray.

Sweeping Beauty
At Marissa Webb's show, Tresemmé stylist Jeanie Syfu created an edgy side-swept bun by spraying Tresemmé Fresh Start Volumizing Dry Shampoo to hair before pulling it into a low, slightly disheveled side bun, which she then secured with an elastic and bobby pins. She added Tresemmé Tres Classic Styling Tres Extra Firm Control Gel to the hairline and behind ears for a sleek touch and finished by releasing a two-inch section of hair, teasing it and sweeping it across models' foreheads.

Glamour Girl
Channeling old-school Hollywood glamour, stylist Nadirah Volpe gave models luxe curls at Betsey Johnson's show by creating a deep side part, spritzing hair with Sexy Hair Style Sexy Hair 450 Headset Heat Defense Setting Spray and wrapping one-inch sections of hair around a one-inch wand. She gently backcombed the front section of models' hair before curling it in order to add extra body and combed all curls using a boar bristle paddle brush once hair had cooled. She finished off the look by applying Big Sexy Hair Spray & Play Hairspray.

Pump Up the Volume
For a punk-inspired take on a ladylike look, Kelly Bileddo created a gravity-defying '70s updo at Betsey Johnson. To create the look, she parted and clipped hair at the crown, making sure to leave the side and back sections down. To add texture and grip, she spritzed Big Sexy Hair Volumizing Dry Shampoo and back-teased hair. She subdivided hair at the base of the skull, creating two sections. Clipping away the top section, she smoothed the lower section over the left while spritzing Big Sexy Hair Spritz & Stay for hold, before cross pinning at the center. Next, she repeated the same steps for the other subsection.

Bileddo then combined both subsections before smoothing hair to the right and creating a French twist moving upwards, which she then secured with pins.

As for the crown, she subdivided it horizontally and clipped the section closest to the hairline. She spritzed the remaining portion with the volumizing dry shampoo and then smoothed the hair back, creating a pompadour and pinning it above the French twist. She rolled the remainder of the section and pinned a barrel curl above the twist.

Finally, she used a one-inch iron to create two barrel curls in the fringe section, which she back combed before smoothing the hair towards the right eye.
