Stolen Girlfriends Club’s Winter 2012 offering, ‘Here Lies the Bones’, follows a free-spirited globe-trotting magpie with a slightly twisted itinerary on a journey to the darker corners of the globe.  

As a perfect compliment to this subversive rock and roll look, KMS California Hair Director Greg Murrell has created an edgy yet feminine style. Featuring hair pulled back off the face, then fastened at the back of the head with a series of three simple knots sewn to the head, the resulting ponytails are pinned to the knots, and the ends allowed to drop towards the nape of the neck.

“We’ve been working together for a long time now,” says SGC’s Marc Moore of KMS, “so we are very confident that they are on the pulse and get what we are about.”

The look is beautiful with a subtle dark creative edge in the sewn linen underpinnings.

Get the look:

Lightly relax any wave or curl with flat-irons.

Apply KMS SilkSheen Styling Crème for light hold.

Working with any natural partings or growth patterns, take a triangular section of hair from the high recession on either side of the head to the low crown.

Tie a knot towards the roots by pulling the ends through to form a small ponytail.

Lift the knot upwards and temporarily affix to the head using a sectioning clip to get it out of your way before doing the next knot.

Take your next section from the low front hairline on either side of the head back to the occipital. Knot, ponytail and section away as before.

Take back the remaining hair and create the last knot at the high nape being sure the leave some hair out at the nape to float freely.

Next, take out the sectioning clips and allow the top two knots and ponys to drop.

Tension the knots to the head and use hair grips to fix them in place.

Take the top 2 ponytails and affix them closely to the knots using hair grips for effect.

Next, take a blunt needle and some linen thread and sew underneath the knots to secure them to the head going from side to side in a figure of 8 pattern.

When complete, remove the hair grips and apply KMS California Hairplay Dry Wax to achieve the desired finish with matte surface texture.
