The Celia Kritharioti Haute Couture 2024 show was a fantastic display of mythical allure with hair looks to rival those of mermaid queens. Itβs always interesting to see touches of nature on the fashion runway. And thatβs why we were impressed with the Neville Hair & Beauty hair team, who created looks that transported the audience to an underwater oasis.

Celia Kritharioti Haute Couture 2024
The team achieved unparalleled shine and opulence by using LβOrΓ©al Professionnel products and Luxury Hair Extensions. The elegant hair looks complimented Celia Krithariotiβs mythical collection and made for a stunning display.

Get the Look: Mermaid Waves
Inspiration: The powerful yet graceful flow of the seaβs currents, embodying prestige and power.
- Add Luxury Hair Extensions to create length and volume, ensuring waves have depth and movement
- Prep hair with LβOreal Professionnel TECNI Art Volume Lift Mousse and LβOreal Professionnel TECNI Art Pli to build a base for the waves
- Then, using a large triple barrel curling iron, create loose, flowing waves (to mimic the seaβs natural rhythms)
- Apply a light application of LβOreal Professionnel Metal Detox Hair Oil to add a luminous sheen, reminiscent of sunlight dancing on ocean waters
- Then set the look with LβOreal Professionnel TECNI Art Fix Anti Frizz spray to maintain movement and fluidity
