These latest looks from the creative minds at Anthony John Salons remind us never to underestimate the power of a great hairstyle. Transformations come in refined shapes and haircuts with a touch of 1940s luxury, inviting us to redefine our expression.
Traditional hairstyles are updated with innovative, modern techniques to make a statement of glamour and high taste in a time when true style is still appreciated but has become more of an exception.
Soft and Short Retro Hairstyle
Josephine Baker had it in a sleek and shiny style. Today’s version is more playful and does away with the pomade. The combed-over short hairstyle with a side curl retains its charm but gains momentum and texture.
The hair is shaped like a loose cap, with strands directed from one side to the other, laid over each other with lightness and some lift. The front is dominated by the diagonal line of the bangs, and a darling set of curls springs up at the dominant side where all the lines lead.
Fashionable Braid
A stunning braid slings its way around her face. This updo was created with elevated skill using a French braiding technique, which adds more hair to the braid with every turn. This asymmetrical wonder is not just romantic but definitely a showstopper and conversation starter.
The proud braid starts above her left temple and ends at the back of her head, where it is tucked under. A few stray hairs are intentionally left out to soften the appearance and add a touch of seductiveness.
Short and Airy Hairstyle
No weapons permit is needed for this look. The good news is that it comes with all the sass you can handle and even instant irresistibility.
The brunette hair is rather short and airy in the back, with a gradual lengthening towards the front so that the bangs are voluptuous and long enough to cover the eyebrows while falling in a dashing curve. The movement and volume set the mood and define the energy of this hairstyle.
High and Classy Up-Style
Classy from the forehead to the nape and echoing the rhythm of an unforgettable era, this retro-modern updo steals the show. With the hair pulled tight around the perimeter, the voluminous top gets all the attention.
Lifted as high as possible, the entire crown is brimming with wavy movement and frothy volume. Her brunette hair color adds a spicy touch to this elegant and festive look.
