Ahluwalia SS27 Hair: TONI&GUY Sculpts the Low Ponytail

By Cheryl Gushue

The Ahluwalia SS27 hair look at London Fashion Week was a tightly pulled low ponytail finished with sculpted detailing. TONI&GUY Global Creative Director Cos Sakkas created it with the TONI&GUY Session Team. The hero product was label.m Humid-Defy Spray. The look pairs strength with softness, the same balance that runs through Priya Ahluwalia’s “Revel” collection.

What was the Ahluwalia SS27 hair look?

It started with a low ponytail pulled tight to the head. That gives a strong, rebellious silhouette. Sculpted detailing then brings in something softer and more refined. The contrast between precision and elegance is the whole story. It mirrors the collection’s celebration of resilience, personal expression and human softness.

Ahluwalia SS27 “Revel”: joy as resistance

“Revel” explores joy as a form of resistance. It celebrates optimism, togetherness and the people who make choosing lightness possible. Priya Ahluwalia drew on photographs of former Black Panther members at home and at rest. She also drew on the communal energy of FESTAC ’77, the 1977 festival of Black and African arts and culture held in Lagos. The collection treats self-care, celebration and gathering as powerful acts of connection.

How music shaped the Ahluwalia SS27 collection

Music runs through every look. The collection draws on the rhythms of Fela Kuti and the energy of Mumbai’s underground rap scene. It is a runway built for movement.

Why the Ahluwalia SS27 ponytail matters for salon pros

A sleek low pony looks simple. It is a precision service. Clean tension at the nape, a smooth surface and a sculpted finish are the skills that separate runway from everyday. Expect clients to ask for it this spring.
