Poolside Vs Pavement

Summer Hair: Do U Dare?



With all the excitement of the Autumn/Winter 2010 collections, it’s easy to forget that we are actually just approaching Spring- and please, lets not wish it away! In a deliciously rebellious response to the matte, tousled waves of past months, Summer hair trends are going poolside. Take a deep breath though: Its about to get a whole lot sexier.



Paired with dewy, damp skin, Asish gives us slicked back, wet-look hair at it’s best. You’ve just got out of the pool and frankly, you’re too rock and roll to care. Pulling hair off the face can be quite a brave beauty move, but after hiding behind our fringes during the winter months, it’s a welcome change- just be sure to keep it straight- wet waves are a little too ‘80’s holiday’ for our liking…



Do it like Chloe and keep your lengths dry. Its all about contrast.


UK Vogue’s April shoot with model-of-the-moment Lara Stone is a perfect example of wetlook hair with a modern twist. Its clean, fresh and a little bit sporty. Banish those hideous pots of gel from your mind, along with visions of spiral perms and ballerinas. Look to Bumble and bumble ‘Styling Crème’ and ‘Does It All’ styling spray to create the look.



Sulis's Creative Director Sven Bayerbach gives his tips. Lara, watch your back:




1. Apply Bumble and bumble Styling Crème (£18.00) to damp hair using a wide tooth comb. See, no gel in sight!!
2. Comb back in an ‘s’ shape.
3. Liberally spray Bumble and bumble ‘Does It All’ styling spray to secure.
4. Now for the final, and essential step: Don’t move! No, seriously, its important to let the style set before you leave the house. Consider it your valuable make-up time: A strong eye/lip is essential.
