The bigger the better
After once holding one of the top hair spots of the 80s, big hair is back. Kevin Luchmun creates classic, voluminous 80s inspired manes at the
E.Tautz SS 2017 show. The hair for this show is inspired by the 1980s River Pheonix era focussing on the natural movement of the hair to create a voluminous but natural look.
