Four Runway-Ready Hairstyles for Graduation
WWD/Robert Mitra1/4Straight Hair
"Straighten your hair with flat iron, then tuck it behind your ears. If it's smooth and sleek—diffusing lotion will help—it should look perfect when you take off your cap," explains Galasso.
The Look: Alexander Wang Fall 2012
WWD/Steve Eichner2/4Low Ponytail
"The low ponytail always looks sophisticated, especially with a low side part. I would use a light, flexible hold hairspray to set the hair and then you won't have flyaways when you take off your cap."
The Look: Derek Lam spring 2012
WWD/John Aquino3/4Low Bun
"When tying a low pony with an elastic, don't pull the pony all the way though. Pull it through enough so that the ends of the pony are still in the elastic, creating a looped effect."
The Look: Carolina Herrera spring 2012
WWD/Steve Eichner4/4Braided Updo
"Create a low ponytail, then braid and twist it into a knot and pin it at the nape of your neck. When you take your cap off, you can undo the braid, shake out the ponytail, and you're left with a beachy, wavy, tousled look. I would use a product like Oribe Beach Spray on the ends when you first undo it, which will keep your hair looking great for pictures and all-night graduation parties!"
The Look: FIT Future of Fashion Show 2012
