A Winning Look


All eyes are on the tennis moves of 15-year-old Catherine Bellis, the youngest girl to win a match at the U.S. Open since 1996.

Beauty buffs can’t stop talking about her Valentino-inspired ponytail that was created by Redken Creative Consultant Guido at the Valentino Fall/Winter 2014 Fashion Show.

While this ponytail has been one of the most popular styles since it hit the runway, Bellis finally brought the look to professional sports.
