Alexa Chung shot by Josh Olins for Vogue UK, June 2011 This festival loving, long-legged hipster muse is as low maintenance as they come. A slick of liquid liner, a few minutes with the curling irons and the right products and she’s ready to go. Currently sporting a shoulder length bob, her simple, shaggy chic ‘do [...]
Photography by Patrick Demarchelier for Vogue US A fortnight ago I wrote an article about the current crazy-coloured hair trend for The Australian newspaper (!!). I distinctly remember the Rodarte wunderkinds showing a variety of coloured extensions aaaages ago at their Spring 2008 show and then those purveyors of cool Proenza Schouler who presented murky looks at their [...]

The secret to these great waves… Henrietta Hellberg shot by Andrew Yee for Elle Vietnam October 2011 1) Start with clean hair then slowly flat iron from roots to mid lenghts for slick, flat locks. 2) Spritz the bottom half of the hair with ghd’s Curl Hold Spray whilst your curling tongs heat up.

As you know, I don’t really do posts with celebrities, but firstly, Amanda Seyfried is gorgeous, and secondly, oh em gee her hair looks amazing! A very wise hair stylist once told me that if you want to style your hair well, you need to make the texture “like canvas, not silk”. Add product, make [...]

Oh my! I have hideous hair today. My fringe grows at the of speed of light and it’s at this terribly unflattering length somewhere between Bettie Page’s cute crop and Alison Mosshart’s shaggy bangs. Ugh! Thank heavens for girly bobby pins and Margot Tenenbaum! You probably already know that I love love loovve Wes Anderson’s [...]

I love these curls on Frida Gustavvson the for Paul & Joe Fall 2010 Campaign (shot by Patrick Demarchelier). For me, they’re the perfect size for an everyday curl. They’re not too big or obvious, and they’re certainly no ringlet, they ooze carefree chic. For a defined curl that stays and doesn’t frizz, I like [...]
Beautiful hair is so worth the effort. Great shampoo, great conditioner, treatments baby!, and my new favourite product, Argan oil. Rich in Vitamin E, fatty acids and other nourishing compounds, it smoothes your hair and makes it shine! Anna Jagodzinska shot by one of my faves, Hedi Slimane, for Vogue Nippon August 2010.
And I thought that plaits were on the way out. Judging by this editorial in Vogue Nippon, it seems plaits are just getting started… Dree Hemingway shot by Nathaniel Goldberg for Vogue Nippon June 2010.
I couldn’t decide which shot I liked better… the loose pony and Burberry pastel trench, or the tighter pony and frilly Fendi shoulder. So you get both! I love that really girly hair is back in (thank you Prada!). This time it’s just one pony and a sweet little bow. The perfect finishing touch for [...]
The perfect hairstyle for days when you’re aimlessly wandering through the forest… Create a center part. Plait the two sections. Pin the plaits around your crown. Mess up with your fingertips, or by meandering through the woods… it’s up to you! And there you go, maiden-chic! ;) Constance Jablonski by Cedric Buchet for i-D Summer [...]
I find really tight curls to be too ‘young’ for me. Here however, paired with tiny leather shorts, long legs and a gorgeous Chloe cape, they definitely lighten the mood. Whip out your mid-size barrel tongs and hairspray, et voila! Chanel Iman shot by Thomas Schenk for Vogue China June 2010.
When a regular plait doesn’t cut it, you’re over top buns, and your hair is way too dirty for it to be out, the fish plait is definitely the hairstyle for you. These have been popping up everywhere lately, and if you don’t know how-to, just youtube it! It is eeeeasy! Erin Heatherton shot by [...]
Why have one bun when you can have two! After seeing my gorgeous friend Bec sporting two little buns last week I’ve been contemplating it, but now after seeing this shot, I’m going to try it around the house and who knows… might even wear it out this weekend! Fei Fei Sun shot by Jem [...]
I love the powdered hair look – it’s all very Marie Antoinette! The best way to get this look for a night out or party or whatever is to spray heaps and heaps of dry shampoo over your hair. Don’t brush it out or otherwise the white will disappear so make sure your hair is [...]
