3-Step Transformation: From Pixie To Long & Lived-In

When you’re given the opportunity to master your craft and style alongside the industry’s top hairdressers, you just say yes! That was the case for 15 stylists who flew to NYC from all over the country for a week of Moroccanoil®️ education, styling backstage at New York Fashion Week and a photo shoot with Behindthechair.com, art directed by BTC Founder and Creative Director Mary Rector-Gable!
The stylists spent the day working with Moroccanoil®️ artists Kevin Hughes (@hairbyeleven), Robert Ham (@roberthamstylist) and Antonio Corral Calero (@antonioccalero) to create 17 on-trend “Instagram” looks for eight different models. Under Mary’s art direction, BTC was there to make the magic happen—from the creative vision and model casting to styling the wardrobe, makeup and final production!

Get The Steps
1. Apply extensions with heat-activated glue for temporary styles and easy removal.
2. Gently apply heat using a hair dryer to secure the extensions. Then, create volume with Volumizing Mousse and rockstar texture using Texture Clay.
3. Finish the look with Moroccanoil®️ Luminous Hairspray to create brightness that will shine through.
Look 3: Disconnected & Chic Chop
That feeling when the hair is SO good, you can’t help but do one more look! That’s why Kevin Hughes stepped in to chop these lived-in extensions into a disconnected, chic cut that embodies cool-girl edge.
