Try It: The Bow Bun Courtesy Of Collette Dinnigan's Paris Show

Written by 

She was the only Aussie to show at Paris Fashion Week this year and boy did she do us proud.

But coming from a beauty writer, I'd be lying through my teeth if I didn't say that I was more interested in the bow-style hair 'do that the models were sporting over the the lace detailing.

So obsessed with the 'do, we tracked down the clever mob responsible for the style, the Redken Team, and asked them to spill the sequins on how to get the look. And the best bit? It works a treat on day-old hair.

How to: the bow-bun as seen at Collete Dinnigan Autumn/Winter 2012 Paris Fashion Week  

PREP with Redken Clear Moisture shampoo and conditioner.

Step 1: Apply Redken full effect 06 nourishing mousse all over and blast dry hair.

Step 2: Secure hair in two low pony tails, one directly on top of the other.

Step 3: Divide the top pony in half and secure two identical 2-2 ½ inch barrels on each side leaving the remainder of the hair in the centre.

Step 4: Secure the centre hair neatly in the middle to create a bow look and mist Redken fashion work 12 versatile working spray all over.

Then, all you need to do is shout yourself a croissant for breakfast and you're practically French. 

 

Reckon you're ready to give this style a whirl?

If you're a fan of the bow, then you're gonna go ga-ga for the hair donut. Stay tuned for more on that later...
