The Roughed-Up Pony from Aveda

For the Ann Yee, spring/summer 2015 runway show, Aveda Guest Artist John Reyman created a sleek style that morphs into a rhythm of fitful waves coming together briefly off center, only to expand out into a full ponytail. “The super straight top that develops into rapid waves speaks to Yee’s vision of that time of year when an urban dweller is suddenly faced with a storm that can be forceful, moody and exhilarating,” says Reyman. See how he created this unique style.
