Dion Lee AW18 – a tale of two side-parts

In Uncategorized by Lilly Cox

Sharp, soft, wearable, and tough, hair at Dion Lee AW18 is a tale of two parts. 
Eugene Souleiman for ghd professional created two variations on a single look whereby the texture of the hair changed seamlessly from root to tip: sharp, clean, deep side-parts transform into a looser, more natural form in the mid-lengths, and then again to raw, discretely waved ends with movement. Girls with thicker hair had it scooped into low-slung ponytails. Others had it loose and tucked behind the ear, and in the pre-show lineup Eugene pressed fine flyaways found on the hairline into the forehead. 
“At first glance this hair is simple, but in reality it’s very nuanced. The deep side part lends sharpness, the wisps a soft rawness”, says Eugene.

Get the Dion Lee look:

1.Create a deep, straight side part on the side of the head that suits best.

2.Spray Wella Elements Leave In Conditioning Spray and EIMI Mistify Me Light close to the hair at the roots. So that hair doesn’t look too fresh and clean.

  1. Blow dry hair with the ghd Air hairdryer (£99) to achieve a smooth finish that sits flat to the head.

4.Use the ghd Oval Dressing Brush (£20) to smooth hair back from the hairline and to give a sleek finish around the head.

5.Enhance the hair’s natural texture in the mid-lengths by spraying EIMI Sugar Lift and diffusing it using the ghd Air hairdryer and diffuser.

6.With the ghd Curve Classic Curl Tong (£120) add the slightest texture and movement through the ends of the hair.

7.A spritz of EIMI Dry Me lends a dusty, dryness to hair tips.

8.Tuck hair being worn down behind the ears, or scoop it up into a low-slung pony.
