New York Fashion Week is always a showcase of modern glamour, and at the L’Agence FW 2026 presentation, the hair was a true highlight. Master Hairstylist Narad Kutowaroo of Unite Hair partnered with FHI Heat to create a look that felt polished, clean, and effortlessly refined. Inside Cipriani at 42nd Street, the quiet luxury blowout took center stage.
Behind the L’Agence FW2026 Look
Narad’s vision was simple: elevated, healthy hair with soft movement and smooth volume. Here’s the step-by-step for how he achieved the look:
-
He began by detangling the hair with the FHI Heat UNbrush®
-
On damp hair, he misted UNITE 7SECONDS Anti-Frizz Thermo Mist throughout to smooth the cuticle, provide heat protection, and guard against humidity. He then applied BOOSTA Volumizing Spray directly at the roots to build lift and grip.
-
Using the FHI Heat Innovator Pro Power Speed Hair Dryer with the concentrated nozzle attachment, he dried the products into the hair, focusing on elevating the roots while refining and smoothing the ends for a polished finish.
-
Working section by section, he misted MAXCONTROL Spray onto each area before curling it with the FHI Heat Platform Bounce Pro Curling Iron 1.5”. Each curl was carefully pinned to cool, allowing the structure to set. He repeated this process throughout the entire head to ensure consistent shape and longevity.
-
He allowed the hair to fully cool in the pinned formation to lock in the style. Backstage, to accelerate the setting process, he swapped the nozzle for the diffuser attachment on the FHI Heat Innovator Pro Power Speed Hair Dryer and used the cool setting to help set the curls more quickly.
-
Once the hair was completely cooled, he removed the pins and gently shook out the curls by hand. He then brushed through to sculpt the final shape, paying close attention to blending the sections seamlessly and eliminating any visible partings from the pin set.
-
To finish, he applied TEXTURIZA Spray for added volume and texture. He completed the look with U:DRY Fresh Dry Conditioner to tame flyaways, control frizz, and deliver a smooth, satin finish.

Pro tip: To help keep hair smooth and frizz free, he used the FHI Heat Innovator Polisher Pro Brush after blow drying!
The Final Look: Sleek and Sophisticated
The result was timeless and modern, proving that when it comes to quiet luxury, less truly is more.
