Here are some cool images I found from WMagazine… I love the photography, styling, hair and concept. Photographs by renowned British fashion photographer, Nick Knight and the hair accessories and hair are by Celebrity Stylist – Sam McKnight …Enjoy!
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’!

Optique Collection by Tracey Hughes
Came across these fantastic looks a while back but finally came across the full collection so I wanted to share it with you. Here is a excerpt from American Salon magazine, where it was featured exclusively..
‘French romanticism is the heart of the new Optique collection from Australian artist Tracey Hughes and the Mieka Hairdressing team. Encompassing smooth graphic shapes, disheveled texture, boldly cut fringes, rounded edged and intricate braids, the hairstyles strike the perfect balance between classic and edgy. Ultra feminine fashions combined with chic minimalist eye make up and dramatic dark lips complete the glamorous effect. Optique draws inspiration from an era of expensive and elegant tastes, creating seamlessly flawless images, says Hughes, who is artistic director for Redken Australia and winner of the 2011 Australian Masters and Australian Salon of the Year awards. I chose to shoot in black and white to capture the feel of iconic classic and contemporary feminine looks.’

Dazed Digital ~ I was a punk rock princess
Fantastic visuals of before’s and after’s of the fabulous work of Peter Grey who was the hairstylist on this shoot and Andreas Kurwitz who did all the crazy creative color work. Dazed Digital is the online fashion version of Dazed and Confused.
Fashion Editor Cathy Edwards said:
“I was inspired by some punk hairdressing postcards I found at a car boot sale about 10 years ago. I’ve had them on my wall for all that time and finally decided to show them to a hairdresser and use them as a starting point to create some very extreme ‘hair art’.
Peter is one of the most technically skilled hairdressers I’ve ever worked with and I knew he would be able to do something amazing. He is so passionate about what he does that it was great working with him. He has a brilliant team of really skilled assistants and colourists that means anything is possible!
The girls were all great! It took three days and late nights to do and they all had to have their hair bleached to white before the cut and colour so it was very time consuming. They were all very patient and totally open to anything we wanted to do. I loved the fact they were different characters and all of them really liked how the hair looked in the end.”
Great work, Thanks for sharing with us : )
