Here are a few tips from Edward Tricomi, the founder and co-owner of Warren-Tricomi
salons, on how to get your hair similar to the ones below, as seen in fashion shows during New York Fashion Week.  Edward was the head stylist at the Joanna Mastroianni show.  All you need are bobby pins and hairspray!





1.
For this up-do, Edward brushed through the hair pulling it back into a high ponytail and securing with a bungee elastic.

2.
He then gently twisted the ponytail until it began to coil. Loosely pinning the hair into place as he went.

3.
Edward began then style as a bun wrapping the hair
around the base of the ponytail and then moved off center to create a
more interesting, abstract look.

4.
The hair was pinned into place and finished off with a layer of hairspray.

Expert Tip: Don’t have the length to create this style? Fake it!
Models with shorter hair or less thickness wore hair pieces to add
fullness.

1.
Begin this topknot the same way as the style above. Pulling hair up into a high ponytail and securing with a bungee elastic.

2.
Again, gently twist the ponytail until it begins to
coil. Wrap hair around the base of the ponytail again and again
securing with pins.

3.
Twist the hair left at the end of the pony and wrap
it around the entire bun, tucking it under in the back. Finish with
hairspray.

1.
To create fullness and height, tease hair in
sections with a Mason Pearson brush. Tease section by section to get the
big hair effect. Spray each section with hairspray as you go.

2.
Push hair back and gently brush front pieces over the teased section. Add another layer of hairspray.

3.
Gather hair in the back and twist up and under the teased section to create the up-do. Secure with pins.
