This is a sponsored feature. All opinions are 100% from Her Campus.

Just when we thought nothing could top the hairstyles at College Fashion Week Boston, TRESemmé Pro Tyler Laswell took the glamour up a notch at CFW NYC, where the catwalk was replete with bold supermodel ‘dos that demanded our attention. No backstage beauty pass, no problem—Laswell gave us the scoop on all the steps (easy enough for you to try!) and TRESemmé products needed for getting on-trend tresses guaranteed to carry any collegiette from school to soirée. Scroll ahead for a fresh batch of hair inspo now!

Look #1: Imperial Two-Strand Twisted Half Up

Steps:

  1. For long-lasting shape, start by applying TRESemmé 24 Hour Body Foaming Mousse ($5) and then rough dry. Use a one-inch curling iron to get textured, tousled waves.
  2. Make a deep side part and divide the bigger section of hair into two equal parts. Then, twist the section of hair at your hairline by crossing the strand closest to the hairline on the opposite section.
  3. After each twist, incorporate a small amount of hair into each section and repeat until the twist covers three-fourths of your head. Secure with an elastic.
  4. Repeat steps two and three on the opposite side and when finished, use an elastic to combine the two ponytails.
  5. Pull the look together with a few spritzes of TRESemmé 24 Hour Body Finishing Spray ($4).

Look #2: Woodlander Sectioned Bubble Ponytail

Steps:

  1. Prep your locks with TRESemmé Thermal Creations Volume Mousse ($5) then rough dry.
  2. Tie your hair into a loose ponytail that sits at the nape of the neck.
  3. Section the ponytail into multiple two to three inch portions with elastics, leaving two inches of the end loose.
  4. To get those uber-chic bubbles, lightly pull the outside of each section.
  5. Give it some gloss with TRESemmé Keratin Smooth Illuminating Shine Spray ($5) and amp up the volume by running your fingers through the top of your head.

Look #3: Brooklyn Princess Braided Undone Top Knot

Steps:

  1. Apply the brand’s 24 Hour Body Foaming Mousse ($5) all over then rough dry. Section the front two inches of your hair and temporarily clip it to the side.
  2. Pull your remaining hair into a ponytail on the top of your head.
  3. French braid the front two inches of hair that you put aside in step one, secure it with an elastic then wrap it around the base of your ponytail. Fasten with bobby pins.
  4. Next, back brush the ponytail on the top of your head to give it an airy texture. Then create a three-strand braid, wrap it into a bun and secure with pins.
  5. Lock in the look with TRESemmé TRES Two Extra Firm Hair Spray ($4) for a flake-free, glitzy top knot that’ll last you from morning until night.
