Streetstyle: the rigid wet look
Both glamorous and simple to create, the wet-look is often a popular hairstyle for summer. This style enables you to create that ‘just-stepped-out-of-the ocean’ feel and instantly gives your look a summer-inspired vibe. Our streetstyle wearer today has opted for a rigid take on the trend.
Her hair. She’s opted for long locks slicked back into a wet-look style. Her hair looks nothing like the traditional version of this trend. Here, she has used a strong hold fixing product to create a stiff effect. When she turns, her hair stays put, allowing for no movement, which gives her a strict appearance. A futuristic sheen is achieved using large amounts of styling gel!
Her look. A mix of retro and modern-kitsch. To compliment her hairstyle, she’s wearing a shiny anorak-type jacket. Perfect! The rest of her outfit is made up of a simple dress, heels and a scarf with peacock feather detail on each end. Her overall look is a total success and effortlessly blends with the futuristic nature of her hair.
Tip of the day. Don’t worry about damaging your hair when using vast amounts of product on your lengths. The only thing to keep in mind is to not use this technique every day, otherwise you may suffer from product overload and a build-up on your lengths.
