17 Sep GIRL CRUSH: burning man babes
There are festivals, and then there is Burning Man. This truly unique experience is described as a community and sees thousands of revellers descend onto Nevada to the man made and temporary Black Rock City. Renowned for it’s celebration of counter culture and alternative thinking, Burning Man is a melting pot of some of the most unique and inspiring hair, fashion and beauty you are likely to see outside the editorial pages.
Here at your favourite Brisbane salon, our hairstylists breakdown some of our favourite looks and how you can tailor them back to the real world Nundah streets!
Heidi Klum
Remember playing with your mum’s crimping iron? Well this is that look on steroids. Hair crimped within an inch of it’s life and then brushed out to create a virtual mane, we actually love it on Heidi as it’s incredibly fun and youthful. To get the look at home, work more with brushing out waves to create volume, without the crimped profile. Using a curling iron or tongs, set the hair in wide curls and pin to cool. Release and gently brush through.
Nina Dobrev
Nina went with spunky high pigtails for her look, giving her a cute cropped finish. Keeping the pigtails high is definitely a bolder move than hiding them low and so it’s not for the faint hearted. To tone this look down try a half up half down look and twist the top section into two messy buns where the pigtails would sit. Or try creating low pigtails and the braid the hair before twisting into two low buns at the nape of the neck.
Nathalie Kelley
Aussie actress Nathalie took the easy way out- wigs. She turned her brunette bob into an icy white platinum shade with a simple temporary change. This is the perfect way to walk on the wild side without the commitment. In this case we adore it! For real life? We say try it for yourself. Invest in a realistic looking wig and have fun changing up your look with no fear of regrets.
Karlie Kloss
Karlie kept it super simple with her hair pulled back using adorable headbands and sparkly crowns, letting her hair accessories make the statement for her. While these might be a little much for day time, you can get a similar look with a chic finish with a super simple Alice band, leaving hair loose and natural. Bejewelled face optional!
