The blend of modern trend with classic styling makes Mark Woolley an incomparable hair designer.
Choppy Layered Bob
The cut: What we have here is a choppy, layered bob with razor texture, and side-swept fringe area.
The color: The cool, pale blonde of the hair color gives softness to the style that might seem severe in a darker shade.
The style: To create this hairstyle, Woolley applied L'Oréal Tech Art Volume Lift to towel-dried hair and once dry, spritzed with L'Oréal Tech Art Iron Finish to protect the hair. He then used a Saks Hair Ceramics iron to straighten and flick out the ends by tilting the iron.
A light, non-greasy wax (L'Oréal Gloss Wax) to define and flick out random strands until the desired look was reached.
60's Bob Hairstyle
The cut: This hairstyle combines the iconic look of Mary Quant's 60's bob style with a low, thick fringe and additional length in the back to create a softer-looking and altogether modern style.
The style: To towel-dried hair, Woolley added Kerastase Mousse Volumactive and blew the hair straight with a round brush. Once fully dry, the hair was sprayed with L'Or"al Tech Art Iron Finish and straightened with a Saks Ceramics iron.
The style was finished by adding a small amount of L'Oréal Tech Art Gloss Control to leave the hair smooth and shiny.
Long Hairstyle with a Sleek Fringe
The cut: This cut also takes inspiration from the 60s bob with the sleek, thick fringe area and razor-cut layers to give a well-groomed long-haired look.
The style: L'Oréal Tech Art Volume Lift was applied to towel-dried hair to give the hair maximum lift at the roots while leaving the ends light and supple. The hair was then blown-dry completely using a barrel brush.
Once completely dry, the hair was sprayed with L'Oréal Tech Art Iron Finish and ironed using a Saks Ceramics iron. L'Oréal Tech Art Gloss Control was then used to leave the hair sleek and shiny-smooth.
70s Inspired Afro-Style
The cut: The cut for this and the next hairstyle shown are identical: The long curly locks are cut in layers to maximize the curls' volume.
The style: The style shown was created using naturally curly hair treated with Kerastase Aqua-Mousse Elasto Curl after being towel-dried. The hair was then dried with a diffuser attachment, focusing on the scalp area to make the hair as big as possible.
L'Oréal Tech Art Air Fix was then applied to the fully-dried hair and the curls were teased and back-combed to create this 70s inspired afro-style.
Long Curly Hair
