Kurv Magazine, shaving gets personal with the Braun series 7.
Every man is unique with different needs and preferences in life so it is handy that Braun offers a personal touch to their grooming routine. Whether they have sensitive skin or dense hair, men can be irresistibly smooth with the Braun Series 7 with Personalisation Mode technology, Braun’s premium men’s grooming shaver.
The Series 7 allows for unique personalisation, combining innovative technology with stylish design to deliver Braun’s closest ever shave. With the Personalisation Modes, the Braun Series 7 shaver provides a personalised close shave for every man, regardless of their skin or hair, ensuring confidence and style for a well groomed look.
The technologically-advanced shaver with special adjustments understands a man’s face, enabling a smooth glide for a close and fuss free morning shave.
The three Personalization Modes allow adjustment to the intensity of the shave for different areas of your face at the touch of a button and a sensitive flexing head to pivot around your facial contours. The personalised Series 7 provides minimum irritation and maximum efficiency, leaving your face smooth and stylish, whatever your skin type. Braun’s Clean&Renew™ System then cleans, lubricates, dries and charges your shaver ready for its next use.
The Braun Series 7 is also aided by Sonic Technology, which delivers over 10,000 micro-vibrations, and OptiFoil - Braun's most advanced foil that has zones with differently sized holes to capture hairs growing in different directions.
The Series 7 features cordless operation which allows you to shave for 50 minutes without plugging into the mains. It is available in all electrical outlets and major department stores now.

“I wanted to translate Addiction to colours. Since colours are an important part of human expression, Make Up just struck me as the way to go. One can be addicted to anything, why not colours, crazy Make Up? It’s definitely a trait de caractere.”

“We imagined a Japanese woodblock print bringing life to the original Japanese Geisha. Her ornate preparation of self echoes the blossoms reaching the apex of their beauty. The painterly quality of the photos impulsively leads one to imagine times past, but anachronistic decorative elements shoot her into the future, bringing her to today.”

Kurv Magazine, Guido Palau for Redken 5th Avenue NYC - Milan, Paris, New York Autumn/Winter 2010. Guido Palau, Redken 5th Avenue NYC Creative Consultant is considered to be one of the world’s most conceptual hairstylists. Renowned design houses including Calvin Klein, Prada, and Louis Vuitton go to Guido to create the looks that lead the direction of hair for the upcoming season. Having a strong presence in the industry for over 20 years, Guido has brought his radically expressive style to runway shows, fashion advertising campaigns and editorial work.
Referencing Autumn Winter 2010 hair trends, he says: “This season we looked at everything with a different point of view, and took different directions to update iconic styles—everything from ‘60s boho to ‘90s grunge.” “There’s been a calming feeling in the atmosphere this year—something saying that natural hair can be sexy and beautiful.”
“Deep side parts are a strong look that nods toward masculinity, but with a sexy attitude as well. It helps you make a strong statement, without having to over-do your hair.”
Specifically we look at Redken's Autumn Winter 2010 hair trend, High Drama. These artistic updos for maximum glam, see lacquer finishes and dramatic shapes give this season’s look a modern, sculpted feel as witnessed on the runways of Balenciaga, Loewe, Prada, Yves Saint Laurent.
Redken How-To Tips:
• The updo seen at Prada was a nod to “classic French hairdressing.” Guido used thickening lotion 06 body builder to prep models’ hair, then locked in their full-volume chignons with a generous amount of forceful 23 super-strength finishing spray.
• “At Yves Saint Laurent, we took a classic chignon and modernised it for the design house,” says Guido. How did he manage to give this traditional look a modern touch? Simple—by applying hardwear 16 super strong gel around the hairline to create a lacquer finish.
• The final touch for any sculpted updo: a shine-boosting hairspray. Backstage favourite quick dry 18 instant finishing spray will keep any updo in control with a firm, no-fuss finish.
