PFW SS26 Victoria Beckham Q&A
Lead Hairstylist Anthony Turner shares his inspo and techniques.
How has ghd chronos max made an impact on styling backstage?
It’s been amazing for speed and efficiency. The technology ensures flawless, long-lasting sleek hair, which is essential for a fast-paced show environment.
How does ghd Chronos max compare to other stylers you have used?
The biggest difference is the ghd chronos HD technology which means I can cut down my styling time and know that it won’t cause damage to the hair. This is because it maintains a consistent temperature, ensuring the hair is styled perfectly and sealed without excessive heat. The difference with the chronos max is that that larger plate is perfect for thick and curly hair and creates even more shine.
What are your top tips for achieving that glass hair shine?
I love using Wella Professionals Ultimate Repair and Ultimate Smooth ranges to repair and nourish the hair. To start with I spray the Ultimate Repair Miracle Hair Rescue on towel-dried, clean hair and let that sink in for 90 seconds before styling. I also love to use Wella’s Ultimate Smooth Miracle Oil Serum and apply a small amount on dry hair to achieve smoothness & shine.
For styling I use the ghd helios to dry hair and then finish with the ghd Chronos max styler for ultimate shine.
Why is ghd your go to styling tool brand backstage?
It comes down to reliability and performance. ghd tools are fast, efficient, and deliver perfect results every single time, which is exactly what you need backstage.
What are your fashion week kit essentials?
For me I love combs, pins and clips. I always have the Wella Pro’s Ultimate Repair Miracle Hair Rescue, Ultimate Smooth Miracle Oil Serum and love the extra volume foam for lift.
What’s one Wella product that never fails you?
Sugar lift is my ultimate go to for lift, shine and texture.
What’s the one tool you can’t style a show without?
The ghd Chronos max styler is perfect for a polished finish which is either straight or waved.
What’s your go-to styling hack in a time crunch?
A pump of Wella’s Ultimate Smooth Miracle Oil Serum on the ends for shine.
PFW SS26
What is the inspiration behind the hair and why?
The hair was inspired by the collection’s innocence and sense of coming to age. We chose a simple yet effortlessly feminine look—a sleek, low ponytail.
How did you work with Victoria to create the hair look for the SS26 show?
I always discuss the inspiration and mood of the collection with Victoria and create a sense to compliment this and the beauty look of the season.
