Balmain and Iconic Hair Products
The to-go-to hair care of the stars and fashion models.
Appealing sunsets, suggestive locations, outrageous outfits, but most of all glamorous hairstyles.
Living on this planet for just a few years and you are certain to know that good hair just doesn’t happen naturally.
Or not, unless we spent a whole mid summer afternoon laying on the beach club La Scogliera in Positano, after a quick swim and letting the hair air dry under the scorching sun.
Hopefully, the natural chunky beach waves look is also the look you were aiming for.
On photo shoot locations, savvy hands dispense cascades dense hair products on models, actresses, vips’s hair that thirsty looking followers will then try to recreate at home.
If you are lucky (or liked?), hashtagged down the lines you’ll find a hint of what give this -normally not so flattering to the eyes- model to give them such the “iconic look”.
Perhaps, if we were still in the 90s the “from disco to disco look” was some hair gel left on a coffee table ecstatically sipping rum and coke on a couch with unappealing-to-the-next-door-neighbour laughters in front of 90210 before heading out with a bunch of friends on a Friday night in our very late teen years.
Fast forward to the early 2020s, we need something more. We want to look like them, but we want to be us. And we want them -rightfully so- to wanting to be like us. Or better, us! But they can’t. Why? Because we have real lives to attend and they don’t. Because we want to look good effortlessly every day going to work, and not just for a glamorous photo shoot in front of flashing lights. Real life is flashing lights.
Let’s find out what hair products we need, that movie stars, singers and celebrity in general use for their looks.
