The Casper beauty team has been jumping from backstage to backstage, looking for the best tips and tricks to get that runway-ready look. As you can imagine, there are a lot of no-makeup looks, and we’re here for it. In the realm of hair, one hairstyle that has been present during the entire week was a wet look – think out of the box; we are talking about a wet look with millions of interpretations. Creativity is just a glance away, and Fashion Week is undoubtedly the best place to tag along and enjoy the ride.

These are some of our favourite looks from the AAFW Resort 23; if you are as obsessed as we are, don’t worry – we have the best ‘how-to’s so you can recreate them at home. If you try one of the following looks, feel free to tag or DM us on socials @caspermagazine – we’d love to see it!

BEARE PARK x O&M

Original Mineral led the way to effortless looks, where on one side, we had lots of creamy textures, and on the other, curls were being embraced at their finest. It's the end of the night, and these girls have just had the time of their lives; they don't care what their hair or makeup looks like. Hair Director: Mary Alamine, Royal Hair.

How to get the BEARE PARK look 

• On damp hair, layer O&M Atonic from roots to ends and blast dry. 
• Part hair in the middle and apply Surf Bomb for added texture.
• Blow-dry the hair flat with a medium round brush, and don't overstretch the hair. 
• Use a medium curling tong and wind the hair vertically, continuously gliding the curling tong up and down the hair shaft to create a soft wave while keeping the tips straight. 
• Pull the tip of each section to create a softer curl. 
• Repeat this step through the hair, but alternate directions create an undone texture. 
• Mix equal parts of Style Guru and Project Sukori in a bowl and apply with a tint brush to roots, taking 1-inch sections. 
• Comb each section with a wide-tooth comb. 
• Spray Original Queenie to each section and set.
• Repeat all through the hair. 
• Add barbering tape around the nape area and secure with pin clips on each side. 

MATTEAU x R+CO

Matteau showcased a mix of relaxed and refined looks according to their aesthetic. 

Working with the quintessential Matteau woman, who is eternally effortless, we worked to enhance each model's natural hair texture rather than alter or change it. We created soft natural bends through their hair, with centred and robust parts. Hair is gently tucked behind the ears, sitting behind the shoulders to ensure the finished look is a fresh and achievable daytime aesthetic.

How to get the MATTEAU look 

• Working with damp hair, apply a 10-cent-sized dollop of R+ Co Waterfall Moisture + Shine Lotion, a super hydrating balm, through mid-length and ends only. 
• Next, apply one pump of R+Co Two Way Mirror Smoothing Oil  through the ends only to add extra shine. 
• Add in a clean, central part, comb through all hair with a wide-tooth comb, and let the hair completely air dry.
• With a medium hair tong, create bends starting at the midpoint of hair, down to the ends. 
• Use R+Co Outer Space Flexible Hair Spray to finish the look without fly-aways. 

St Agni x R+CO Bleu

Pure and subtle contrasts best define the Resort 23 collection, rooted in the agenda-setting minimalism of the '90s. St. Agni's clean lines take on a new, freeing sensuality that ended up with the ultimate raked back hairstyle. 

The key looks we see on the runway and especially for the St Agni show are healthy, luxe, and polished natural hair. I have seen the consumer's desire to spend less time on their hair yet still achieve a salon-quality result at home. Enhancing natural texture is all about a great haircut and excellent home haircare. One of my favourite looks from the show is a raked back wet look. This is a great style to do yourself at home to accentuate your face shape and give your style a little more edge.

How to get the St Agni look 

• Start with freshly shampooed hair – we used R+Co BLEU Primary Colour Shampoo and R+Co Primary Colour Conditioner for lustrous and hydrated hair.
• Work a 20-cent piece of R+Co BLEU Super Style Creme into towel-dried. Then allow the hair to air dry.
• Once hair is completely dried, rake through a 20-cent piece of R+Co BLEU Highest Volumizing Mousse into the roots of your hair.
• Using a wide-tooth comb, add a deep side part and comb hair into the desired shape while keeping the hair on the sides as close to the scalp. This outline pairs really well with either a relaxed or night-time look.
