Beautiful, bountiful, cascading curls never go out of fashion and are always a great way to embrace the freshness and lightness of spring, as seen at the Ella Baché Splash Swim and Resort wear show. “The hair has a fun, flirty, Barbie-esque softness with bounce and plenty of movement, seen as the girls strode down the runway. It really encapsulates that resort style, voluminous, glamorous hair,” said Todd Arndt, Redken Hair Director backstage at the show. The voluminous curls had a dry, airy texture and accessorized with cute ‘hello sailor’ hats, bows and braided headbands.
HOW TO:
1. Apply Redken Rootful 06 to the roots, lengths and ends of towel dried hair. Blow dry in and
create a centre part. This will help achieve a beautiful light, dry texture in the hair.
2. Beginning at the back, take one inch sections of hair and while holding the curling tong
vertically, wrap the hair around the wand. Curl the entire head of hair.
3. Set the curls as you go, by pinning them to the scalp and allowing them to cool. Once cool,
remove all pins. Using a soft boar bristle brush, gently relax the curls by brushing out the
lengths. Use your fingers to help align and shape the curls.
4. Expert Tip: For extra volume in the back lengths, crimp hair at the roots for an
added lift and a fuller look.
5. Finish with a healthy dose of Redken Workforce 09 for volume and flexible hold.

Yianni is a veteran of his craft, with 11 years in the industry; Yianni has certainly mastered the art of a fantastic haircut. Recently back from a trip to Hair Expo in Sydney learning the latest in styling from around the globe, Yianni has a good blend of experienced know-how and up-to-date techniques.
When it comes to cuts – Yianni says…
“I enjoy creating strong shapes and lines in style-cuts, incorporating natural texture for versatility. I try not to push the natural fall of hair so that the style is easy to maintain throughout its wear.”
Yianni cant live without….
“For curls I am getting into the new Wool Shake in the Style Connection range from Redken – it creates great texture and movement for straight hair also. Outplay for men’s cuts is a must-have, it gives a satin/matte finish and has a good hold. For heat protection, I prefer to use Spray Starch – it isn’t simply a thermal protectant but gives hair some structure as well.”
Yianni loves that look….
“Cate Blanchette’s new short crop is great, I love the strength and simplicity of the shape.”
Yianni specializes in…
Yianni is the extension specialist at Vogue Nationale Hair Design. His extension technique is so beautifully executed; no-one would ever guess it wasn’t your own!
