What to wear to the beach these last few weeks of summer? Hairstylist Timothy Silmon used Kevin Murphy to create a soft, boho wave for Tori Praver’s Miami Swim 2016 presentation.
Te get the look, Silmon primed hair with Kevin Murphy Hair Resort, a beach-y cream texturizer, to mimic the effects of salt and sea. Models’ hair was then prepped with Hair Resort Sprat, a version of the texturizer, before wrapping the hair around a 1-1/4 inch curling iron.
The models also wore various braids running through the ends of the hair, tied off with gold thread.
To finish the look, anti-frizz cream Easy Rider was applied to create separation and control throughout the ends of the hair without weighing the hair down or making it greasy. Next, Powder Puff was used on the braids and through the roots of the hair. This metamorphosis product was applied to give hair volume and dry, matte texture for that bed head look.
Lastly, Shimmer Shine, a treatment mist with sun protection, helped create a smooth, golden center part thanks to the product’s tiny gold flecks that reflect light.
“Tori and I wanted all of the models to have a very natural looking beach wave,” explained Silmon. “The inspiration was waking up with bed head after a big night out and heading straight to the beach. The salt from the surf would create separation to the ends for a look that’s a bit grungy and a bit boho.”
