Big. Curly. Bold. Just like the 80s. 💥 Here’s how we created this high-energy half-up, half-down look for the lilanikole show at Miami Swim Week — full of texture, volume, and power braids 🔥 Step 1: Prepped the hair with unite_hair GO365 Hairspray (on medium hold) to add grip and control before styling. Step 2: Curled for volume — the bigger, the better 💁‍♀️ Step 3: Sectioned the top half and used Conundrum Paste to detail and braid clean sections, pulling them up into a tight top pony. Step 4: Let the rest of the curls flow — think 80s beach glam meets runway realness. Step 5: Locked it all in with a final mist of GO365 on strong hold to keep the look camera-ready from backstage to catwalk. #MiamiSwimWeek #LilaNikole #UNITEHair #SessionStylist #SwimWeekHair #BigHairDontCare #BraidedPonytail #BehindTheChair #runwayhair
