Into the WILD

Release your inner Tribal Goddess with this beauty and hair look.

How-to Hair by Vicki Lord:

This works best with medium to long hair, so you may need to clip-in extensions if your hair is short. I recommend Foxy Locks. 1 Curl hair first to create movement. 2 Use dry shampoo at the roots. I recommend Perk Up (amika - a vegan brand which I love and use in my salon).

3Back brush top part of hair to create volume but keep the sides quite flat. 4 Dress the top section backwards into a quiff style and pin to secure in place. 5 Next tightly dress the sides back and round to sit under the quiff at the back of the head; secure in place with grips. Use amika Blockade serum to smooth sides.

6Take a small section of hair from the back, apply volume powder (Vandal from amika) to the piece of hair and then braid into a fish tail braid. The powder will give the hair more grip, allowing you to braid easier. Pull out sections of the braid slightly after it is tied and secured, to create a more textured modern look.

7Finish style with amika Fluxes Touchable hairspray to set in place.

Accessory Options: For this shoot we used some twisted rope doubled over and tied under the fishtail for one look, and added a thin braid at one side – this is easy to do, simply take a small section of hair from beneath the sleek side and create a simple plait. We also used some sparkly pieces from Glitzy Secret, and a statement headdress that I made – which looks great with the hair loose at the back, or even if you wish to create two chunk messy braids with the wavy loose hair. So many options for you to let loose and go wild with!

Make-up Tips from Helen:

This look is all about a light-to-medium flawless coverage, glossy lips and intense eyes. Keep the eyebrows strong to frame the features and apply feathery lashes that are still full but natural. The intense pigment of shadow needs to suit skin tone, and be applied beneath the eye too. Ensure the black liner goes inside the inner eye on this look and only use a little bit of darker colour to cut into the crease of the eye. Finish the look with a jewelled bindi at the centre of the eyebrows.
