Scroll Andrew Fitzsimons’ Insta feed and you’ll see pages and pages of faces that don’t even require last names. Kiley. Kendall. Khloe. The talented stylist is modest about his contribution to his famous clients’ iconic looks. “The best part of my job,” he reveals, “is working with the client, stylist, makeup artist and photographer to create a full look in which every element compliments the rest.” With his favorite product close at hand—Alterna Repair Multivitamin Protection Spray for heat protection—he’s a key player in many of the most re-grammed collaborations in beauty. Here, he reveals the how-tos behind two of his recent favorite looks.
Kylie Jenner’s Dream Waves
Apply Alterna Haircare Caviar Anti-Aging Multiplying Volume Styling Mist to damp hair, tip the head over and dry, encouraging volume at the roots.
Using a ghd 1.25-inch Soft Curl Iron, curl the hair, directing all sections away from the face.
Attach @beautyworksonline instant extensions for volume and length.
Brush through the hair with a paddle brush, blending the curls.
Finish with Alterna Caviar Anti-Aging Perfect Texture Finishing Spray for texture, followed by Alterna Caviar Anti-Aging Caviar Working Hair Spray for flexible hold.
Khloe Kardashian’s Half-Up with a Bun
Apply Alterna Haircare Caviar Anti-Aging Smoothing Anti-Frizz Blowout Butter to damp hair and blow dry the hair to a smooth, flat finish.
Mist with Alterna Haircare Caviar Anti-Aging Perfect Iron Spray.
Create an over-the-head section from ear to ear, gather the top section in the center of the top of the head and secure with an elastic.
Use a tail comb to smooth the hair.
Lightly backcomb the ponytail with a tail comb, then mist with Alterna Caviar Anti-Aging Caviar Working Hair Spray.
Twist the ponytail into a bun and secure with hairpins.
Finish with Caviar Working Hair Spray.
Many of Andrew’s clients are “color chameleons,” changing up their hues and trying out new shades all the time. To keep their hair fit and healthy, Andrew relies on the new Alterna CAVIAR Anti-Aging Restructuring Bond Repair collection which reduces hair damage by up to 99% and restores hair to its virgin look and feel with its Caviar Bond Enforcing technology.
