Get the Look/Step-by-Step:

Step 1: Separate hair into top and bottom sections, creating a horizontal line from ear to ear. Further divide the top section into two to three layers, depending on the amount of hair. Twist and secure each layer at the top of the head with a hair clip.

Inspiration: The swooping stacked cut lines of artist Noriko Ambe. The organic splendor of artist Tara Donovan. Citing these two biomorphic artists as his springboard for the season, J. Mendel designer Gilles Mendel cultivates a collection seeded in elegant technicality and fluid emotion. “It’s the idea of using structured fabrics and adding an element of softness by using curved seams and intricate cut work,” says Mendel. “Each piece is an emotion.”

Hair:  To mirror this dance between tailored precision and soft, sloping curves, and to evoke a feeling of ethereal airiness, stylist Odile Gilbert fashions a voluminous hairstyle that revels in the organic, chaotic nature of mussed curls. “It’s all about volume — tons of volume — and a round, fluid shape. This look is very feminine.” says Gilbert, adding “It’s not feminine-frilly; rather it’s femininity with a modern twist.”

Secret: I’m a Rachel Ray fan. You didn’t know this about me right? Her success story is very inspiring. Rachel is a great example of someones who simply followed their heart, did what they were truly passionate about, and rest just followed. And, she made it all seem so effortless.

Here, she shares his simple steps on how she achieved Rachael’s ‘do:

First a few pieces of extensions were added for extra length and fullness. Then Fernow applied Redken outshine 01 anti-frizz polishing milk (SRP $16) to Ray’s wet hair, which helped her strands fight the frizz in last night’s extreme LA heat! Next, the wet hair was sectioned and blow dried straight.
