Second Day Hair

What’s second day hair you ask?  Only one of the hottest trends to walk down every runway this season, and splash across the pages of some of the most predominant fashion magazines.  This messy purposely undone hair has come and gone but always makes it’s return to the cheers of any women who can appreciate a little rock and roll and perhaps lethargic mornings.  This trend is not for the meek though, if you can’t leave your house with out pressing your hair  you may want to skip this one.  This style however hasn’t dominated this season , its a climate of anything goes from slicked backed chignons to loose braids.

So looking to achieve this look?  First determine your hair texture and try our recommended products below

• If your hair has a natural wave you’re in luck this is the best texture to achieve this style.  You can get this look by simply spritzing damp hair with KMS sea salt spray and allowing to air dry.  This spray adds fullness and a light matte finish.
• Straight hair requires a little effort to achieve an unkempt look.  While you hair is damp braid into a one or two braids depending on thickness.  Allow to dry over night and in the morning release braids and spray with KMS texture blast.  You can finish this look with a light hair spray like KMS Quick Finish Spray.  Adjust the amount of products by the lightest hold your hair requires remember this look is meant to be loose and workable.
• You can pump up your amount of natural wave or create wave by using a large barrel curling iron.  Mist large section of hair with KMS hot spiral spray and proceed to curl hair in spiral sections working bottom to top.  When finished work through hair with a large tooth comb to release curls and create large waves.  Finish with a light hold hair spray.

All of the KMS products are available at Franklyn Studio.  Still have questions on how to create this look, ask you stylist today for hands on instruction

Remember to have fun with your hair it’s the ultimate accessory
