F orget the "Top-Knot", the new "Back Knot" or "Knotted Ponytail" has taken over the 2015 runways of NYFW! From sleek to messy, this style is so new not even the celebs have caught on yet!

From the Pros

"I wanted to create a new, fresh look for the hair to harmonize with the urban traveler lifestyle that was showcased in the Nicholas K collection. Pulling inspiration from ancient Japanese top knots, this modernized ‘Back Knot’ style was the perfect accompaniment for the theme of the show. We kept the hair in the back of the head to keep the emphasis on the clothes while the hair added to the overall look and feel of the production."

How to Get the Look

1. Slightly dampen hair with water and create a center part all the way to the highest point of the head. Evenly distribute Macadamia Professional Foaming Volumizer from the roots to the ends. 2. Section hair from top of head to ears, combing down the part. Take back, large sections and blow dry using the diffuser and the Macadamia Professional Boar Bristle Paddle Brush. 3. For heat protection and added shine, apply Macadamia Professional Nourishing Moisture Oil Spray on Dried Hair. 4.Gather all hair at the nape of the neck using the paddle brush and create a tight, low ponytail. Secure the ponytail in place with an elastic and reinforce with pins. 5. Then, secure the weft of extensions onto the elastic. 6. Take a small section of the weft and hold aside. 7. With remaining hair in the pony, create a loose loop and secure with another elastic. 8. Wrap the small section of loose hair around the elastic, securing it with a pin and spray the Macadamia Professional Style Lock Strong Hairspray for Lasting Placement.
