WILD CHILD
British Hairdresser of the Year 2008 nominees Gary Hooker and Michael Young were inspired by couture fashion to create their latest collection, Black Orchid, which contrasts dark backgrounds and porcelain skin tones. For this look, hair was set to give it maximum volume, then tonged at the roots for added texture. —L.A.

ROCK ON!
It doesn't come with a record deal, but the new TIGI Rockaholic collection will help your clients unleash their inner rock stars. The line, which was tested—and approved—by actual musicians on tour, includes Born to Rock Leave-In Detangler & Defrizzer, a light conditioning product that increases manageability; Dirty Secret Dry Shampoo, which absorbs oil and adds volume and texture; Rock Out Shine Blaster, providing high shine and humidity protection while decreasing drying time; and Fun Times Flexible Hairspray, a medium-hold hairspray. The in-salon display (shown here) sets the perfect vibe to prepare clients for some rockin' hair. tigihaircare.us —L.M.
