Fancy a festive look original without necessarily investing in a dress? It is at Carita that I could test a retro hairstyle decorated with gold leaf for a very glam style. I suggest the tutorial with pictures for each step that you can reproduce this hairstyle or just the golden effect you. Knowing that gold leaf - food-is not completely overpriced or not found.
Hairdressing to achieve

Before discovering step by step stages of the retro styling and the application of gold leaf, I suggest you see in the video Tom Marcireau, Hair Designer at Carita, in action and advice.
How to make retro base
Effect wet hair by using a first setting time to carve the notches and foam to form the bun.









If the hair is too short and does not achieve a sufficiently large bun, a ponytail hairpiece can be placed. 



To stand and dry the entire hair, big pins are placed to form the "scaffolding". 

How to apply gold leaf
After spraying the spray on the hair, gently depositing the gold leaf that adheres immediately. 


For a crackle effect, use a pin and it "breaks" the smooth effect. 

The result

Time needed: if we have a little help (to form the bun at the back and lay the leaves), not more than 30 min
Where to find gold leaf: there are several sites on the web, including this one (which offers a book of 10 sheets € 26.90)
They start easily with brushing and / or shampoo without residue.
Thank you to Tom Marcireau, Carita Hair To sign in and Damien for advice and hospitality

I would one day succeed the detents (I tried for an evening 30 years and it never kept me on), but I think I did not put enough gel (I'm not very good with styling products).
Cutest these notches to the old!

@ Cherry: thank you!
@ Givememoor: gold, I love (again, should I specify)
@ MademoiselleCoquelicot: thank you! a little twist actually not that difficult to do, right?
@ Mary: You amaze me, and that even this will be a great topic of conversation to open the subject "You did it when your hair? "'All alone ..." "Nah .... ":)
@ VesperL: this is true, it is also for the evenings (there's not that the 31 to his show, eh!)
@ Fantastic So: know that it makes great on dark hair well, we saw this during the parade of Carita.
@ Annushka: the retro, this is quite a hairstyle for you!
@ Babbling: grazie! Gold will always have this dressing, and with this cracked / aged, we avoid the bling side (whew)
@ Entrenoussoitdit: thank you my dear!
@ Fanny: it's always better to have a friend, cousin or sister on hand to draw the teeth, because it is difficult to have a good back! I must try too!
@ Caro: thank you and happy holiday with baby!
So Chic & Retro indeed, great!
I can not believe I can do this alone, but it costs nothing to try!
A nice hairstyle! which should not be easy to do, if indeed one is alone.
@ Aurelia: when you carry gel and foam to easily work the teeth and claws to keep them!
@ Catoche: it is anyway always coming out of the hairdresser that has the most beautiful effects (or worse, sometimes it can happen too!)
