The Look: The ultimate festival ‘it-girl’ braid. The Trick: Experiment with placement and keep it loose, this will give the braid a laid-back modern feel. How: “A detailed braid is a failsafe way to vamp up your festival look”, says Kim Lomax, Stylist at Sassoon Salon, South Molton Street. Flip your parting and plait a small section through the side. If you want to keep it soft and romantic, plait small, loose sections of hair at random and secure with an invisible band. Finish the look with a light mist of Sassoon Profession, Edit Hold. Get The Gloss The Ultimate Cover-Up The Look: Keep less-than-fresh hair looking chic with a headscarf or hair knot. The Trick: Distracting and pretty, a headscarf or hair knot is the perfect cover-up. How: “Simply scrunch some Sassoon Professional Curl Form into your hair and tie up into a ponytail just above the nape of your neck – wrap it around onto itself to create a chic textured knot. If your roots are looking tired, finish by adding your headband or scarf,” says Kim Lomax, Stylist at Sassoon Salon, South Molton Street Lived-In Waves The Look: Fresh, subtle & totally undone The Trick: Spritz a dry-shampoo onto hair to create an instant bohemian feel. Use your fingers to roughly tease and avoid brushing through. How: “If you’re wearing your hair down, forget bouncy waves and volume – festival texture is all about that effortless, lived-in look” says says Kim Lomax, Stylist at Sassoon Salon, South Molton Street. Use a texture spray, such as Sebastian, Drynamic for instantly chic mussed-up look.

With only days left until the start of the World Rugby Cup we have a lovely spread with a great picture of one of our favourite Royals – His Royal Highness Prince H. This weather has been very mixed lately but we have it on good authority the Boodles’ winners enjoyed their day out! While at Boodles we met Hugo Taylor who we welcome into the Festivals edition of the Journals with his luxury eyewear brand Taylor Morris. He is better remembered perhaps for his part in the TV programme Made In Chelsea. We have been privileged to work with many beautiful venues and we would like to share with you our visit to Crocker’s Folly, St John’s Wood, a beautiful restaurant, ideal for weddings and both private and business events with the luxury of having their own private apartments for short term rent. We are very proud of our Festivals front covers and extend a big thank you to John-Paul Pietrus, Vogue Fashion photographer – and how remarkably fitting they are for this edition. We hope that you will enjoy some of the fantastic features that we have lined up for you including a walk round Soho where we discover an array of fine eateries, and suggestions on how to enjoy Holidays on the Water. We wish you a warm and pleasant couple of months until our next issue is out. Please enjoy the Festivals read – from all at Team Redbrook Media. 11 Get theFestival looks Style Editors’ Letter
