GIA'S FAVORITE STYLE OF HAIR
Hmmm, my favorite hairstyle..? Is this a trick question, because I just enjoy making woman feel beautiful. End of story. I'm really drawn to "classic styles with a twist," really organic and something that feels unexpected. As a platform stylist for L'ANZA hair care, I'm more of a hair designer, so if I have to choose, I would say whichever hairstyle that I had artistic freedom to create.
MOST INSPIRED BY
I feel the most inspired when I can help woman feel comfortable, sexy, and confident. A hairstyle should not feel like a costume, it should feel like an extension of your personality.
A DRAMATIC BRIDAL LOOK MEANS
In life, the joy of romance is excitement with its little twists and turns. When I create a romantic style, I consider these fluctuations: soft waves, sweeping bangs, loose tumbling curls. Considering that so many people are into romantic styles these days, I think a dramatic bridal style would probably be a very sexy, bob length haircut that is perfectly slicked back and away from the face. Something really modern, maybe with a very straight side part. And a darker lip. Drama.

STRUCTURED HAIR STYLESStructured hair styles tend to have an updo element, and lean more sophisticated and formal.
A more structured hair style is great for a wide range of hair textures: from smooth, shiny, and sleek, to those seeking a hint of a softer, more organic look. |
Gia did my hair for my wedding and I absolutely loved it. She gave the best suggestions, but also listened to what I wanted." |
ROMANTIC HAIR STYLES: TOUCHABLE TEXTURE
Romantic hair styles usually mean airy waves and a soft, touchable texture. Regardless of hair length, the focus is organic, more natural looking, even "undone," and may include elements like braids, twists, and tendrils.
LONG HAIR STYLES: MORE IS MORE
A long hair style highlights length and volume, and often requires the assistance of a few (or more) hair extensions to help achieve the desired look. There is a fullness to the hair, and this style suits a wide range of hair textures:
from long and lanky to voluminous waves and curls.
