2018 Met Gala: Ethereal Waves
“I really wanted to bring a certain religious element to the look.” Adir Abergel said of Stella Maxwell’s Met Gala coiffure, “The extreme length adds an ethereal element.”
Pulling references from religious ceremony and tradition Abergel gave Maxwell a long flowing textured style that embodied the nights theme, Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination, perfectly.
We love how, sans the extreme length, this style is completely wearable and easily recreated at home.
To begin Abergel cleansed Stella’s hair with our Full Shampoo to get a clean and weightless texture. He then treated the ends of her hair and the hair extensions with our recently released Restorative Treatment Mask to “revitalize the health and suppleness of the hair.”
After finding a natural center part he applied our Volumizing Whip from mid-shaft through the ends. He then took sections of hair in various sizes and placements and braided them for a natural, undone texture and blowdried the braids, scrunching as he went for added movement.
To exaggerate the look he then applied custom sewn hair extensions.
He finished the look by adding our *NEW* Lifting Powder throughout the strands for tease free volume and texture.
