Get the Look with MOROCCANOIL: New York Fashion Week

“The show is centered around the idea of travel, adventure, diversity and paid a special tribute to Dr Seuss’ iconic ‘Oh! The Places You’ll Go,” said Kevin Hughes, Moroccanoil Artistic Director. “We wanted to create a look that stayed true to the whimsical Dr Seuss style with hair that had a lot of volume, bounce and movement.”

Step 1: On damp hair, use a dime size amount of Moroccanoil Treatment –or Moroccanoil Treatment Light for finer tones—to provide the perfect foundation for styling.

Step 2: Spray Moroccanoil Perfect Defense throughout the hair to protect before heat styling.

Step 3: Create a centre part and generously apply Moroccanoil Smoothing Lotion through the top area of the hair, stopping at ears length.

Step 7: Brush out waves with the Moroccanoil Ceramic Paddle Brush, once the style is final and cooled down.

Step 8: Finish and secure the look with Moroccanoil Luminous Hairspray Strong.

“We stayed in tune with the collection's Sixties vibe for the hair, with tons of volume at the crown that falls into a perfectly undone and textured body. A deep side part and full swept bang really homed in on the theme,” said Kevin Hughes, Moroccanoil Artistic Director. “The hair is meant to embrace each woman’s natural texture – straight, wavy or curly.”
