The hairstyles on the Fall / Winter 2011 runways ran the gamut, but the looks that stood out as the newest and most exciting were 60‘s styles that played with gender norms, from sculpted “bad boy” updos to flirty, feminine beehives. Yes, there were the usual beachy waves, messy buns, braids and ponytails, but the most exciting looks were super slick side-parts that looked modern and clean contrasted by ladylike confections that proved that classics never die.
Boy Hair:
Tight french twists were paired with sculpted pompadours to create faux “boy” looks.
Rochas

Sculpted Side Parts: These modernist looks used lacquering gels (like Extreme Urushi from Shu Uemura Art of Hair) to create a surface that shines like patent leather.
YSL
Hermes
Jil Sander
Giambattista Valli
Lady Hair:
Lady-like coiffures were roughed up just enough to make them look modern.
Jean Paul Gaultier
