"   Having models cover their heads might seem like a simple enough plan. But the reality is far more complicated and time consuming. Backstage at Jonathan Saunders, I got a glimpse at what lay beneath models&amp;#039; pantyhose-clad heads\u2014and the hidden hairstyle was impressive in its methodical layering. &amp;quot;You have to gel the hair around the head so that it&amp;#039;s very flat and you&amp;#039;ve only got the head shape,&amp;quot; says Guido, Redken&amp;#039;s Creative Consultant and lead hairstylist for the show.   After pinning hair at the center of the head in a bun, hairstylists wrapped wet, gelled strands around the circumference\u2014brushing and smoothing as they went. Next, they undid the bun in the middle and pressed this last section down and around the front of the head. Once they secured a wig cap over the matted-down creation, pantyhose were stretched over top, waist first. Looping each woven leg around separately, ends were tucked in tidily and the non-hairstyle was complete. &amp;quot;By taking away the hair, you&amp;#039;re depersonalizing the girls and looking at the silhouette and the clothes more,&amp;quot; says Guido. &amp;quot;There were lots of textures and proportions in the clothing, so I wanted to simplify it.&amp;quot;   \u2014Emily Hebert      Photos: Backstage hair: Emily Hebert; Runway image: Imaxtree Click here to see the Fall 2009 Fashion Week Roundup "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
