The trend of wet and licky looking hair is back

At Milan Fashion Week (SS13), Gucci and Prada designer models drew attention when parading with wet-looking hair, known as "wet effect". Some celebrities have already adopted the style even at gala events. In Brazil, the trend has already started to appear.

The character Bianca, lived by Cléo Pires in the soap opera Salve Jorge, was one of the first to adhere to the hairstyle, which literally promises to make the head of Brazilian women who like novelties and want to bet on a different and modern look.

When to use

According to hairstylist Malu Alves of Jolie Studio Beauty Salon in Rio de Janeiro, the most positive point of wet hair is that it is very versatile. It can be used on both long and short hair and looks good during the day and night. Everything will also depend on the clothes you will wear and the style you want to adopt, more stripped or tidy.


"For longs it looks good to be worn in a hairstyle style as if you are 'going off the beach' with a scruffy braid or a bun. Already in short hair, can be used in any way ?, explains.

Benefits

The hairstyle, besides being stylish, helps to reduce the volume and frizz, because to give the wet effect are used products that give weight to the hair. Ideally, always use gel, but be careful when choosing, so as not to risk getting your hair too hard.

The tip of hairstylist is to opt for the most modern products, especially liquid versions, which are softer and leave the hair with shine and movement. And no trying to use oils. "Instead of looking wet, it will look luscious, giving it the look of dirty hair," he says.


How to do the hairstyle

  • Wash your hair.
  • Use only the towel to dry them.
  • With the strands still damp, apply the gel of your choice.
  • Comb the way you like.

The most used style has been the back hairstyle. Ponytail may also be a good option.

Use common sense always

Hairstylist always recommends using common sense, trying to make a hairstyle that matches your face type and style. Usually this hair gives a more relaxed and fresh look to the look. But in short hair, it can also be very classic, if used with enough gel, back hairstyle or with a side stripe ?, ends.
