Backstage Pass: VPL Spring/Summer 2012 Fashion Show

amika tools were a part of another beautiful show at New York Fashion Week. At the VPL Spring/Summer 2012 Show we provided the hair tools that lead hairstylist Bob Recine and his team used to create the hair look. The collection had a scuba/surf vibe and to emphasize all of the bare skin in the silhouettes, the hair was clean, wet and slicked back as if the model had just stepped out of the water.

How to get the look:

1. Section the hair and saturate each section with mousse.

2. Comb the hair back, away from the face, wrap with a towel and hold in place with alligator clips.

3. Carefully blow dry to set. Bob used the amika NRG Professional Drying System.

4. Remove towels and clips and voilà.
