Get the Look NYFW Edition: The Textured Faux Bob

South African designer David Tlale's Spring/Summer 2015 collection was an array of pieces that trumpeted elegance, power, and femininity. To compliment this, Motions Salon Hair Care Celebrity Stylist Ursula Stephen used African heritage as the inspiration for the edgy, envelope- pushing Textured faux bob. 
How to:

Starting with dry hair, create a defined center part and begin braiding at the hairline, carefully continuing a thin, definitive braid down the center-part using a “cornrow” technique until reaching the crown, and then using a standard 3-strand technique. Use Motions® Shine Enhancing Pomade on fingertips while braiding to smooth hair and provide a better grip

Next, section the top portion of hair in a horseshoe shape and secure with clips. Then tease the remaining hair in sections from root to ends to create some body and texture

Using a flat brush, gently smooth the surface of the teased hair and section into two halves, securing each with a clear elastic. Carefully roll each section under, securing tightly with pins and shaping the hair into a “faux bob”

Remove the horseshoe section of hair from clips and use a crimping iron to create texture, spraying the Motions® Light Hold Working Spritz on each section. Once crimps are set, gently brush out and carefully lay hair over the faux bob foundation, tucking under with pins
Set the look with a bit of Motions® Light Hold Working Spritz
