Celebrity hairstylist Garren used products from his own R+Co and R+Co BLEU lines to create hair looks complementing the punk-turned-New Romantic inspo for Anna Sui's Fall/Winter 2026 show at New York Fashion Week.
Garren added his own perspective to collection's vibe, which hearkened back to London's Blitz nightclub in the early 80s.
"We wanted to put our own spin on it with a 60s approach to the side part, a Bardot-inspired topknot, and natural texture," he says.
"The idea is, you have a healthy scalp, root lift, soft flowing hair, and then it gets ethereal. I don’t like when things look so placed."

Step by Step
- Prep the hair: Spray Scalp Therapy Densifying & Rebalancing Leave-In Mist to the roots and scalp, and rub it in with your hands.
- Section the hair into two parts, like you’re taking half a ponytail, and leave the sides down. Apply Essential Blow Dry Tonic to the lengths and ends to create touchable texture.
- Depending on hair texture, spray Root Booster Volume Spray or Highest Volumizing Mousse on the roots, then comb through to create volume at the crown.
- Blow dry the top loosely, then backcomb to the roots and spray the section with Cult Classic Flexible Hairspray.

- If you have fringe, go with the fringe. If hair is long, create a low side part, swish it over, tuck it behind the ear and let tendrils fall.
- Using a small hairband, secure the top section to create a small bump right above the crown.
- Take the tail and backcomb it using a flat brush to rough it up to create a nest.
- Spray Cult Classic Flexible Hairspray to lock in the volume, then wrap the tail around the crown, brushing and smoothing the edges without combing it out.
Hair looks for Anna Sui F/W 2026 by Garron
- Secure the top knot with long, rough hair pins to anchor it in, and then pull pieces out to create a wispy, looser look.
- For added volume and airiness, spray the finished look with Ultra Dry Texture Spray for fine hair or Lifestyler Volume & Texture Spray for thick hair.
