Jerseylicious Makeover

For this look, Lombardi demonstrated a foil high/lowlighting with a gentle root bump. “In this case I did a partial highlight toward the front and in the crown, with a few scattered lowlights throughout. The root was lifted slightly for a little depth along the parting.”

Nails played a high profile role at New York Fashion Week with new trends popping up on every runway. "We saw a lot of unusually colorful and bright collections for fall—oranges, reds, greens and blues," says Essie Weingarten. "So as a result, we are seeing a lot of neutral nails that are made bold through interesting textures."
