Discover the concepts behind our favorite styles and the key products you'll need to bring the runway to your vanity.
Freya Dalsjø: Minimalism Meets Movement
A fresh blowout sets the tone—simple, structured, and elevated with a subtle sculptural detail that catches the light for added dimension.
GET THE LOOK
Apply Featherbalm Weightless Styler to prep your blowout with lightweight polish and touchable softness. Finish with Superfine Strong Hair Spray to lock in detail.
Rave Review: Patchwork Braids
The art of off-balance vintage nostalgia meets modern craft with off-balance braids inspired by European vintage styling. The result is raw, undone elegance—perfectly imperfect and full of character.

Apply Gel Sérum to sculpt the hair while maintaining soft fluidity in the braid.
Herskind: The Best Night of Your Life
This was hair that told a story—full of life, with matte texture and soft flyaways reminiscent of the morning after an unforgettable night.
“The texture is the key, worn in matte texture that has it’s own life" - Nicci Welsh, Global Prinicpal Artist.
GET THE LOOK
Create a soft wave by blow-drying or air-drying with Matte Waves Texture Lotion for effortless, worn-in texture and grip. Using your finger, rub hair in the opposite direction from ends to roots to build volume. Finish with Dry Texturizing Spray to hold the flyaways in place while creating body and lift.
Baum und Pferdgarten: The Wrap Plait
Equestrian precision meets soft movement in this braid woven with a silk scarf for a look that blends heritage and high fashion.
When creating this look to compliment the collection, Oribe Global Principal Artist Nicci Welsh said she “wanted to capture that same duality: structure with fluidity."
GET THE LOOK
Prep with Invisible Defense Universal Protection Spray to shield hair from heat and lock in hydration. Blowout the hair using Maximista Thickening Spray to create touchable fullness and grip, essential for a refined braid that holds its shape. Brush the hair into a ponytail, anchor a lightweight silk scarf at the base, and weave it down the hair before securing with an elastic. Finish with a mist of Imperméable Anti-Humidity Spray to lock in style.
CMMN SWDN: Structured Simplicity
A soft low ponytail, set slightly back from the hairline and gently finger-raked into place, created understated polish. The style mirrored the designers’ structured tailoring while maintaining a sense of lightness.

Apply Maximista Thickening Spray for a look of understated precision that delivers body without heaviness.
