My Pick ~ Cute-ish

This haircut was done by Tyler Johnston who is Ambassador for Schwarzkopf. A cute bob shape with blunt and soft edges combined. Color makes it pop by what looks like slices added throughout the layers. Fairly simple look but quite cute –ish. (I know ~ I’m not fully committing here)

Dekko’s Daily Grind ~ Shelley

Just wanted to show you a quick makeover on Shelley who came in recently to have a change in color as well as a slight change in the style of fringe.

Shelley had never really tried having a fringe before so we gave her quite a heavy one so it could keep the slight wave in her hair weighted down more. We also put a lot more layering into the rest of the hair so the curl would bounce up much more.

Color wise, Jodi took the color from a coppery shade and lifted it up to a beigey blondey shade which is very flattering to the complexion. Great look Shelley all round : )

Schwarzkopf Professional Color

I came across these great images from the American Salon magazine which featured the new release of Schwarzkopf’s new and exciting color – Igora Royal.

The Igora Royal color line delivers 50% longer color retention and 25% greater vibrancy without fadeage.

This spring/summer 2013 collection from Schwarzkopf and Essential Looks highlights 4 different trends spilt into these categories: White Angels, Mono Mods, Glam Chic and Electric Youth, all of which have been colored with the new igora Royal.

Hair by Steve Hogan,(Schwarzkopf)  Tyler Johnston and Lesley Lawson (Essential Looks)

I have picked out 4 of my favorite looks from the White Angels and the the Electric Youth collections. Hope you enjoy them.

Dekko’s Daily Grind ~ Lilac Belle

My lovely goddaughter was thinking of chopping all her hair off like Charlize Theron’s so I suggested that she colored her long blonde hair Lilac before she did the chop, And Yay, she agreed!

Dekko’s own lovely colorist and co-owner Jodi Ninomiya offered to do the color for her, so Belle came into Dekko for her makeover.

First I want to show you Belle’s hair before, here she is with her blonde slices, this was the base for the Lilac to go in..

Jodi added slices/panels of deeper purple in foil and used a pale Lilac shade to cover the rest of her hair up, here’s the lovely colors used and showing you while it was on the hair…

And here’s Belle with her gorgeous result, sorry the photos are abit dark, end of the night! Thanks to Jodi for staying so late to make Belle so cute, funky and Lilac…

OK Belle, next you can cut it all off and I’ll show you that too as I’m sure it’ll be just as adorable!

Cosmogony by Trevor Sorbie

Adam Szabo and Mai Ha from Trevor Sorbie UK, created these lovely fantasy styles for their latest collection named Cosmogony. Featured in ‘Behind the Chair’ magazine, I would like to share these very creative works of art with you.

Extract from magazine: (although I must admit I find the wording abit too airy fairy, sorry Trev )

‘This collection adds brand new words to the hairdressing vocabulary. Patchwork, Crevicing, Ridgeplay, Crenulation, Otherworldly and Geographic.  It stretches the limits and blurs the lines between hair and substance, reality and imagination. It reminds us that sometimes its best to destroy all that came before, and let the next era rise from the ashes. Because don’t forget, once upon a time, it all began with a single, mighty, big bang.’

My Pick ~ Black and Red

I love this picture, the haircut, color and styling is so strong and vivacious. Great angle for the photography too. I wish I could give credit where its due and tell you who did the work but alas I came across it online  in a beauty website called beauty-zone.org.

Well, whoever did this should be pretty proud of this one, well done..

Soo Joo Park

Soo Joo Park is a model from South Korea who is fast becoming a huge hit and the next big thing! (if not already) She is based in New York and has worked for many global magazines from Vogue to Elle and lots of stuff in between.

As we all know from other models like Linda Evangelista and Tao Okamoto (the famous bowl haircut), changes in haircuts or hairstyles can bring attention to that model. This is the case for Soo Joo Park who bleached her long black hair platinum blonde.

I came across her on Instagram (thanks to Nikki)  where I spotted the chameleon model sporting all sorts of gorgeous shades of color as well as totally different looks.  So, I decided to showcase some of my favorites , although I must warn you that there were a lot of favorites so hopefully I don’t overdo it here. Anyway enjoy the many looks of this edgy in- demand model of the ‘Now’!
