Holy Hair
Fekkai's lead stylist Marshall Linn played off the desert goddess-inspired looks at Alice and Olivia's show by sending models down the runway with hair that was truly worthy of worship.

After creating a middle part, he added volume by applying Fekkai Full Blown Volume Lightweight Styling Whip to hair and blow-drying it section-by-section on medium heat with a paddle brush. For even more texture, he added Fekkai Blowout Refresher Dry Shampoo before creating two braids on the side of the crown, which he then secured at the base of the neck with a hair band. For that final delightfully disheveled look, he ran his fingers through the ponytail and back teased hair before adding Fekkai Sheer Hold Hairspray to seal the look.

Fabricating Style
Bumble and Bumble Editorial Stylist Jimmy Paul created a pretty look that required minimal prep time -- and products -- at Adam Selman. And when we say minimal, we mean it -- this look only required two styling products, a blow dryer and scraps of fabric, making it a fuss-free option that's perfect for time-pressed gals.

He started by coating models' hair with Bumble and Bumble Prep Spray, followed by Bumble and Bumble Thickening Hairspray. Then, he blow-dried models' manes before sectioning the hair and creating a half pony at the crown of the head and securing it with a piece of fabric -- from Selman's collection, of course -- and then gathering all loose hair into another fabric-tied ponytail at the nape of the neck.

An Updated Classic
At Jason Wu's show, the chignon received a modern update courtesy of Odile Gilbert, who found inspiration in mid-century modernism. For a sleek and subtly sexy take on the classic hairstyle, Gilbert spritzed Kérastase Matérialiste into the palms of her hands before working it through dry hair. She then applied Kérastase Crème de la Crème from root to shaft and used her fingers to brush hair back into an ear-level ponytail. She then split hair into two sections, twisted each into chignons and secured them with elastics. Finally, to add that sleek, almost wet look, she coated strands with Kérastase Laque Dentelle.

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.
