Sebastian Professional International Lead Stylist Anthony Cole teamed up with hit fashion designer Christian Siriano for the designer’s Bridal 2018 collection. This stunning upsweep was inspired by the intricate layers of a flower petal and is the perfect look for your next formal event! Here, Cole breaks down how to style the look…
ONE. Hairspray is misted throughout the roots and massaged into the scalp to create texture. A few pumps of Sebastian Professional Potion 9 and mousse are mixed and worked from root to tip to damped strands.
TWO. Parting the hair to the left hand side, tresses are blow-dried straight in an upward motion with a round brush.
THREE. Taking Sebastian Professional’s Craft Clay, warm the product up in your hands and work it into your hair, brushing the hair as you go. Tame any flyaways with a few pumps of oil.
FOUR. Starting at the top of the hair, create a French braid going downward so it hugs the perimeter of the face; secure the braid at the base of the neck.
FIVE. With the remaining hair, create a herringbone braids and secure. For a more voluminous final look, gently pull the braid to make it larger.
SIX. Finally, twist the braid into a bun at the nape of the neck and secure with bobby pins. Finish with hair spray.
