Wet hair, step by step
Shower exit. Hair soaked, not capped ... We break the capillary references of the right kind. For once, the wet look is not reserved for short cuts; it invests lengths and assumes roots at the tips in grungy version very in the air of time. Look of city siren assured with the wet effect. This new trend hairstyle plays on the contrasts between the root of the hair plated and lustrous with a wet effect gel, while the lengths remain dry, possibly worked with a mattifying powder to reinforce this effect of contrast.
On the Blumarine and Cushnie & Ochs parades, the roots are slightly creped before being brought backwards with gel, creating a small volume for a wet effect shell, while at Aminaka-Wilmont, the lengths are creped for a voluminous ponytail, in opposition to the carefully shiny roots on the top of the head.
On the side of the Balmain parade, the locks are plated backwards on the top of the head and on the temples to release the ears, putting them into value using large bling-bling-inspired jewelery. Finally, at Dior, the hair is brought back into a very tight bun so as to create the illusion of a short cut thanks to the "wet" effect.

STEPS FOR HAIRDRESSING WET EFFECT
- Generously moisten the hair with a spray of thermal water or a styling water spray.
- Mix in your palms a nut of wax with a nut of modeling gel.
- Frost the locks along their length with this stylish cocktail, and then roughly separate them with your fingers to amplify the wet effect.
- Leave the hair free and draw a line in the middle very graphic or, on the contrary, imperfect and side; if not, tie a bun quickly done, well done.
- Luster with a glossy fixing spray. The finish should not be that of Courtney Love post-Kurt Cobain era: shiny, yes; greasy hair, no.
