KMS backstage at Hailwood New Zealand Fashion Week
jASON dAVIES - kms bACKSTAGE HAIR DIRECTOR Shares product essentials & new season trend insights.
Top hair tips and trend insights for Spring/Summer.
WHAT HAIR PRODUCT WAS YOUR SECRET WEAPON DURING NZFW?
This season for the Hailwood show, we focused on using two
key products from the KMS range - The first, KMS HAIRPLAY makeover spray was used to
lightly mist onto the hair prior to braiding, creating a starching effect. This was essential prior to applying the wigs on the models, minimizing any slip on the hair, which is one of the biggest enemies of a backstage hairstylist!
The other key product we used for this show was KMS HAIRSTAY working hairspray – this spray creates a beautiful pliable base, which can be built up as required. The working spray can also be massaged into the hair, ensuring that it completely dissolves,
creating brilliant workable texture.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE TREND OF THE SEASON?
This season we are seeing many heavy crescent shaped fringes. This style of heavy-set cut is incredibly versatile & can be styled to be worn in more than one way, providing great wearability for clients.
WHAT ARE YOUR SPRING/SUMMER HAIR ESSENTIALS?

Any products with UV protection are always essential when it comes to summer – the KMS COLORVITALITY range is perfect for this time of year because all products have a built in UV filter.
KMS THERMASHAPE 2-in-1 Spray is an essential product for anytime of the year due to its versatility – it can be used as a prep spray before using hot tools, with the
heat activated polymer providing heat protection, but it can also be used as a
finishing spray to add shine and reduce any flyaway.
Finally, KMS CURLUP Bounce Back Spray is a brilliant product for anyone with a slight curl or wave
in their hair as the co-polymer activates to bundle and define the curl while keeping any humidity at bay.
