Christine Ko for Stella McCartney X Adidas

Christine Ko is an actress that is well known for her roles as Emma on the CBS sitcom The Great Indoors, Mandy on Upload, and Emma on Dave.

Anh had the opportunity to style her hair for the Stella McCartney X Adidas event where she sported a 70’s Cher-inspired look.

Follow along below for a breakdown to know the steps Anh took to create this iconic look.
Step 1

While damp, Anh sprayed the hair with Milbon’s Weightless Replenishing Mist and detangled the hair.

Step 2

To maximize the volume in the end result, he sprayed a bit of Milbon’s Thickening Mist 4 on the roots.

Step 3

Then, he flipped Christine’s head over and smoothed out her hair to create more volume.

Step 4

After smoothing, Anh added 22-inch extensions to accentuate the 70’s Cher-inspired look that they were going for.

Step 5

Now onto styling. Anh went ahead and did combo waves using a 1.5-inch Marcel Iron and worked from the nape to the crown for a more efficient workflow.

 

TO CREATE NU-WAVES

      • Take about one-inch horizontal sections of the hair. Glide the iron in and out to create undulating waves. Keep your motions soft and smooth. Alternate your waves over and under to create dimension and texture.

TO CREATE “LIVED-IN” WAVES

      • For “Lived-in” waves, start by taking a one-inch section of hair, placing your iron at the base, and wrap, keeping the curl at the base of the iron. Slowly release the curl while tapping the iron through the ends to polish the hair. Alternate the waves in different directions on different sections for a more “Lived-in” look!

Step 6

Anh softened and blended in the waves with a wide tooth comb and established a center part.

Step 7

After, he added a bit of Milbon’s Dry Texturizing Spray 4 to enhance the hair’s texture and add body. 

Step 8

To add more sheen to the hair, he added a bit of Milbon’s Illuminating Glow Oil on Christine’s ends.

Step 9

Anh finished the look with Milbon’s Strong Hold Hairspray 7 to lock every strand in place. 

ET VOILA!
