MODERN BRAIDS FOR SUMMER

INSPIRED BY FRENCH VOGUE, TONI&GUY COSTA MESA ACADEMY DIRECTOR AND TONI&GUY HAIRDRESSER OF THE YEAR RACHEL BRUMBAUGH PUTS A MODERN TWIST ON BRAIDS THAT GO FROM SMOOTH TO UNDONECOOL WITH EASE. WITH BRAIDS CONTINUING TO DOMINATE RUNWAYS AND RED CARPETS, THESE FRESH LOOKS ARE A MUCH-NEEDED CREATIVE INFUSION. A PERFECT FIT FOR SUMMER WEDDINGS OR SPECIAL EVENTS.

“I WORKED WITH A HORIZONTAL BRAID SHAPE INSTEAD OF A CLASSIC VERTICAL SHAPE TO ADD INTEREST. SINCE HORIZONTAL SHAPES CAN BE SEVERE, I PULLED OUT PIECES OF THE BRAID TO SOFTEN THE LOOKS AND GIVE THEM A UNIQUE TEXTURE.” – RACHEL BRUMBAUGH

HOPELESS ROMANTIC

By Caroline Mascolo, TONI&GUY Fashion Director

SUGAR IS BACK ON THE FASHION MENU AS LACE, PASTELS AND ANYTHING FLORAL IS A NO-BRAINIER FOR THIS SUMMER. WITH ALL THE WEDDINGS AND BRAIDS CREATING A BUZZ INSIDE T&G, PERK UP YOUR WARDROBE WITH SWEET PIECES TO SATISFY YOUR ROMANTIC SIDE. 1. PREP THE HAIR

2. SECTION OUT THE HAIR

Prep the hair using S Factor Smoothing Lusterizer & blow dry the hair straight.

Part the braid diagonally towards the back of the head and section out your hair into three sections, preparing to do a French braid.

Apply TIGI Catwalk Session Series Styling crème throughout the hair. This will help control the sections of the braid while you are braiding.

3. BRAID Begin the French braid, collecting sections of hair from the back of the head.

MADEWELL Lace Tee $65

4. FOLLOW THE FRAME OF THE FACE Use the frame of the face to follow the braid down to one side. Make sure to leave no hair behind since the whole braid will lay on one side.

5. FINISH & SECURE

6. PULL THE BRAID OUT

Finish the French braid to one side and secure the braid with a hair tie.

At the top of the braid, begin to pull out small pieces of the braid by pinching sections of the braid and pulling on them slightly. Pulling two sections of the braid outwards simultaneously will help keep the braid’s frame while still manipulating it.

7. ADJUST LOOK Continue to make your way down the braid, starting with small pulls and adjusting accordingly to achieve your desired effect.

TIGI Cosmetics Dual Bronzer

TIGI Headrush I can’t finish a haircut without picking this up.

Halloween Adults get to play make believe, I love costumes and it’s my anniversary.

TONI&GUY Cushion Brush It’s had many different looks over the years, but always my favorite.

TOMMY’S TRICKS OF THE TRADE

My Garden Had a brown thumb until I moved to Georgia. Can’t wait to eat something I grew!

ATHLETICISM INSPIRED THE DEWY, SUN-SPLASHED CHEEKS SEEN BACKSTAGE AT FASHION WEEK. MAKEUP ARTISTS MIMICKED THE EFFECTS OF BEING OUT IN THE SUN BY CONTOURING THE HIGH PARTS OF THE FACE WITH A LUSH PEACH BRONZE. SKIN EVEN SEEMED SUNBURNED AT SOME SHOWS, BUT IN THIS CASE THE ILLUSION PROVED TO BE PRETTIER THAN THE REAL THING.

“We are saddened by the untimely passing of a true hairdressing legend.

Not only did he change the hairdressing industry, but he was also a dear friend.”
