Twist and Shout

Every season, we scour the fashion runways with the hope of spotting brilliant new ‘dos and inspiration. We spotted quite a little gem at the Dolce & Gabbanna show during Milan Fashion Week, where they created a classic twist inspired by Italian actress Sophia Loren. To create the look:
1} Spray Thickening Hairspray to damp hair and rough dry without a brush (to maintain natural texture) until hair is 90 percent dry.
2} Next, apply Styling Wax throughout the front of the hair to enhance natural movement and let it air dry the last 10 percent.
3} Beginning at the nape of the neck and working upwards, backcomb the hair for added texture.
4} Finger comb hair back away from the face and pull hair back into a French twist, securing with bobby pins. Make sure to keep the hair loose around the face (not pulled back too tight), so you can see the natural movement of the hair texture. Finish with Spray de Mode hairspray. Pin It

New Straight Blow Dry

A lightweight, heat-activated styling balm helps deliver straight, smooth, soft, healthy-looking styles with movement - until your next shampoo. The Straight Line features a gemstone blend (in Bb.'s very own non-damaging Concen-straight Technology™) that is clinically proven to improve hair's condition over time, for lasting softness and increased manageability.

To style it straight, work evenly through damp hair and blow-dry, section by section until dry using a flat brush for sleek looks, a round brush for more movement and bend. For pin straight styles, finish with a flat iron. Here are some tips for working with curly hair.
