Session to Stylist
She’s a regular backstage in New York, London, Milan and Paris and now Yesmin O’Brien is here to share her invaluable insider secrets with you.
Educator: ghd guest artist, Yesmin O'Brien
Level: intermediate to advanced
Bringing you the latest looks direct from fashion week, this backstage edit takes those new trends and shows you how to make them salon-friendly to keep clients coming back for more. The workshop also covers all-important backstage etiquette and what it takes to impress the biggest names in session styling.
In this in-depth trend session masterclass, you’ll find out how to create:
- The perfect ponytail. An editorial favourite and far trickier to nail than you might think; you’ll cover a collection of high, medium, low and folded styles, then learn how to turn them into commercial looks that can be used in the salon.
- A knotted and braided hair-up look. Braids are a client favourite and this fast and effective technique will help you recreate catwalk-inspired looks in a flash.
- Faux bobs. For clients that can’t commit, this trend-led technique offers a fun and chic alternative to going for the chop.
- Hair pieces. Used regularly backstage to create elegant shapes and exaggerated updos, hair extensions and padding can be made commercial for occasion looks inspired by catwalk styles.
