For Ilana’s all-up style, April produced a very intricately braided and intertwined Mohawk that she says mimics the feel of a braided leather belt. She started with four ponytails along a Mohawk line, each created to point in a different direction. The very front was applied with a four-strand French plait that was braided straight up. It was lightly twisted and placed on top like a Danish roll.

This up-style involves a futuristic boldness with retro wisps and loops. It’s sort of a modern pin-up that sits on a diagonal with a very exaggerated silhouette. April explains the inspiration as ribbon Christmas candy, swooped, looped and boldly rolled and intertwined.

To create this look April started with lots of backcombing to build up the base and then smoothing over the surface to direct the hair into shape, pinning everything into place as she worked.
