If you’re tired of the season’s trend of boho chic waves, slicked back tresses will allow you to bring structure with a hint of shine into your hairstyle. For Fall 2016, the runways officially point toward slick locks as a must-try look for the changing seasons. As you prepare to revamp your signature hairdo for the weeks ahead, draw your inspiration from the catwalks and consider embracing strands that are gelled into position.

Jil Sander

At Jil Sander, models sported flawless high ponytails which featured slicked back tresses. According to Vogue, this runway hairstyle was crafted by hairstylist Sam McKnight, who was aiming for perfection and sharpness. The look of the slicked back ponytail helps to accentuate cheekbones, and can keep long locks away from your visage as we transition into windy weather.

Louis Vuitton

Meanwhile, flowing straight manes were a key look at Louis Vuitton. Despite the effect of loose flaxen locks on display, the crown and scalp were clearly tamed with hair product. This led to a combination of textures, with the slick top portion contrasting with the free-flowing long tresses.

Mary Katrantzou

At Mary Katrantzou, playful front bangs were split down the middle and slicked into place. The girlish gelled bangs may have meant business, but the look of loose wavy tresses kept the overall texture sweet and simple. It looks like multiple hair personalities are officially de rigueur for autumn, and perfectly acceptable both on the catwalk and the sidewalk.
