How I Recreate It in Under 15 Minutes
Start with clean, dry hair and apply a strong-hold pomade, working it from roots to tips for that slicked-back look.
Then, use a fine-tooth comb to create a sharp side part or pull it all back.
Just make sure every strand stays in place with a final hairspray mist.
For the face, I always prime with a mattifying primer, then use a matte foundation or tinted moisturizer to even out skin.
Contour the cheekbones and jawline with a cool-toned powder.
And finish with a matte setting spray to lock everything in for hours of dancing.
