Joana Neves, Alterna Editorial Director, shares how to give clients the Barbie hair look.

The Barbie craze is huge at the moment with the launch of the new Barbie film and many clients are looking to achieve the picture-perfect Barbie hair look think optimum health, frizz free and super glossy strands! Below, I provide tips on how to achieve the Barbie inspired look with my must have product recommendations…

1. Start by washing the hair with Alterna Caviar Anti-Aging Smoothing Anti Frizz Shampoo and Alterna Caviar Anti-Aging Smoothing Anti Frizz Conditioner. They are the ultimate duo to help tame frizzy hair, improve texture and manageability and to provide the hair with shine and softness.

Formulated with luxurious caviar extract, which is rich in omega fatty acids, vitamins and minerals, it also helps to defend and protect hair against factors (physical, chemical and natural aging) that cause it to feel and look older. Therefore, using this duo is a fantastic choice for helping give hair a healthy and youthful glow before styling.

2. Next, spray the Alterna Caviar Anti-Aging Multiplying Volume Styling Mist through clean, towel-dried hair prior to blow-drying to lift hair from the roots, add body and bounce, whilst protecting colour and giving hair a vibrant, radiant finish.

3. Blow-dry the hair with a round brush, working in sections and paying particular focus at the roots where you want to achieve volume.

4. Once the hair is fully dry, use a heated styling iron to create more movement in the hair. Work loosely in sections, paying particular focus to the mid-lengths and ends to give them a bouncy flicked finish and to provide hair with a done/undone look.

5. Finish by distributing some of the Alterna Caviar Anti-Aging Infinite Color Hold Dual-Use Serum through the hair to enhance the hair colour and tone further and give hair an incredible shine – the perfect finishing touch to any hairstyle to give it a professional finish.
