GLAMOROUS GRUNGE



Ph: Elle UK

A popular beauty trend we've been seeing for spring/summer 2013 is the glamorous grunge look. Undone and tousled hair was a way of showing effortless chic. It looks effortless, but in fact hair stylists had to create this undone look for fashion shows like Giles, Kenzo and Marni. It wasn't as easy as waking up and looking grunge ready. The glamorous edge is a popular way of showing you don't care, yet you do! It's quite different from beachy hair, because that creates a bronze beach bombshell quality to your entire look. This is more of a put together and polished grunge hair. It sounds odd but it works! It's very model esque don't you think?

Here are some great products and tools to create your tousled look:



Sultra 'Bombshell' Curling Rod (1 inch)
Aveda 'control force' Firm Hold Hair Spray
Aveda 'light elements' Texturizing Creme

Here's a great video of Adam Reed creating the "beautiful, easy 'morning after the night before' texture in your hair..." (here)
