Tips to Achieving Catwalk Hair Styles

The catwalk is the beginning to top fashion lines, but glamorous hair is essential to complete the look. Achieving these styles is actually pretty simple, and with a few tips you can strut your own catwalk with class and pizzazz.

Traditional chic

When you see the catwalk, you probably think of huge hair, crazy colors and extensions. Not all model hair is like that, in fact most styles are pretty traditional with flattering looks, great for an office or professional setting. Try creating short layers with a silky texture using a razor and an iron. Soft, relaxed waves, classic bed-head, gently tousled waves, and classic ponytails and up-dos are still seen frequently on the catwalk. Try pairing little accessories, such as flower pins or fancy hair ties and bands for a little more glam.

Blast from the past

Fashion is nothing without history and the runway is a great place to see classic hairstyles from previous eras done in a modern way. These include bouffants, beehives, big frizzy hair, timeless bobs, Afros and more! All it takes is inspiration, scissors and an iron to achieve these classy dos.

Positively punk

Fashion is known as quite edgy, and so is different types of model hair! You can easily go for variations on classic punk hair such as the mohawk and fauxhawk. Shaving the sides or creating undercuts, creates texture and surprise, and adds bold color to really garner attention. There are so many ways to achieve that punk look, whether you want it to girly without cutting, or if you want to shave your hair to your heart’s content.

No matter what style you are going for, there is always a way that you can achieve catwalk style hair without a big-name hairstylist.
