Should I be feelin' bad? No
Should I be feelin good? No
Its kinda sad I'm the laughin' stock of the neighborhood
You would think that I'd be movin' on
But I'm a sucker like I said
Fucked up in the head, not!!
Hey, what the hell
Watcha want me to say

hosted by Frederic Fekkai, Lisa Love and Sally Singer, the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund held its annual runway show featuring 10 finalists competing for the chance to receive a year of mentorship and support in launching their careers.
discover the inspiration for the hairstyles-- created by Frederic Fekkai-- along with the fashion fund finalist inspiration for their collections in the info and video below.
look #1: the wet look
the first look is a sculptural, edgy ponytail inspired by some of the graphic trends shown in the collections. described as modern, young and sexy, the texture tells a story through the wet and twisted hard hair. to add an effortless look, pieces are left out in front.
to achieve this look:
*use your hands as styling tools to create this piecey look.
*pull hair into textured sections before twisting together into a low ponytail just above the nape of the neck.
*secure the twist with bobby pins, letting shorter pieces fall to the side.
*shape the hair into a long sleek ponytail.
look #2: the dry look
the second look is a modern, angelic take on a tousled, bohemian style. the hair is full and voluminous with an airy soft texture that allows for movement; it's dramatic, yet romantic and very wearable. pieces are left in front to frame the face and accentuate the jewelry shown in the collections.
to achieve this look:
*apply Fekkai COIFF Strong Hold Mousseto damp hair and scrunch with fingers as you blow dry completely to create the wild texture.
*wrap hair in big sections around twist-ties (fabric curling rods) to create volume at the roots and soft curl for movement.
