Christo at NY Fashion Week
This year, the Christo artistic team worked their magic on New York Fashion week once again. Christo created a unique hairstyle that perfectly balanced femininity and elegance while his team executed his hair designs flawlessly.
June 11 2009 Lisa Mateo is not the straight-haired girl you think she is. Her natural roots are actually curly and to maintain those curls takes a little work especially during the summer.
She visits Christo's Fifth Avenue Salon for some tips on how to show off her ringlets.
On his website, Christo states, "Cutting curly hair is an art. You have to make sure that you work individually according to the texture of the hair and the structure of the face, since curls have a mind of their own. Everyone should be able to achieve the hairstyle they feel their best in. This is why my goal is to maximize the potential of each individual's best possible hair."
