In September’s issue of Vogue Hellas, icy blonde hair and dark lips flatter modern geometric shapes. Model Ramona wears an exaggerated white pompadour, which shifts from perfectly quaffed to slightly mussed through the various photos. The black and white images show off the angular lines of the garments, contrasting dark fabrics with Ramona’s pale skin and platinum locks. Click the full spread to see more monochrome splendor, as well as easy steps for achieving a similar look.
Step: Prep hair with set and style spray and dry upside down to create volume at the roots. When hair is about eighty percent dry, use a small paddle brush to smooth back the sides, and straighten ends.
Step: Use paddle brush to brush all hair back away from the face. Through the center section, add a liberal amount of dry shampoo, working in small sections and applying product from roots to ends. This will give extra volume and support the shape.
Step: For maximum volume, backcomb lightly into the roots at the top of the head. Use pomade to smooth the sides. Mist the shape with holding spray for support and shine.
Step: Now pompadour is created, you can keep it perfectly structured, or dishevel to your aesthetic’s content.
