Here’s one of the winners of the North American ‘Texture’ Stylist Award. Hair was done by Ritchie Roman, R-Rated hair… What do you all think? Nice texture eh?
Three very lovely cropped hairstyles, shaped delicately to the head shape, giving what I would call the Jean Seberg/Mia Farrow pixie look. Its looks like these that I hope will show women in America that short hair can indeed look soft and sophisticated and that its not just for that European look. Jada Pinkett Smith said it so well recently when defending her daughter Willow in her choice to have very short hair. I will post a link here as its definitely worth a read.

For those of you who don’t know her, Sophiya was a talented actress, singer, dancer and presenter, as well as a wonderful funny gorgeous human being. I had the pleasure of meeting and working with Sophiya during her MTV Asia/Channel V stint as a VJ in Hong Kong in the 90’s.
Since her VJ days Sophiya went on to star in many of London’s West End Musicals. ‘Bombay Dreams’ (by Andrew Lloyd Webber) was the musical afew of us old friends were able to last see her star in.. Fantastic and Brilliant Show. She also had a role in ‘The Wanted’ with Angelina Jolie and James McAvoy to name afew.
For more details on her story …. Sophiya Haque
Sophiya passed away last night to the shock of many friends and family around the world. At 41, she was way too young with way too much to offer still. With only several weeks notice she was diagnosed with cancer and died suddenly but peacefully in her sleep.
Sophiya was fun, she was adventurous with her hair and she allowed me to create and try allsorts of styles. If it didn’t work, we would try something different but we worked together for many years and she trusted that I would always make her look good. As my tribute to her I am showing you my favorite styles that I created on her back in the day.
You will me missed by many… Heaven will be welcoming one hell of a sassy chick! Love to you beautiful Sophiya, we’ll never forget you <3
Another member of the Korean band Miss A, These shots of Min were taken from the video ‘Bad Girl, Good Girl’ hence the slight fuzziness. I liked her asymmetric haircut and thought I would add it to my picks because it’s a style that’s simple yet by taking one side of the hair shorter it can add a lot more character to the shape. A shape all clients can relate to…
With me having long hair, I tend not to brush or comb it and I don’t mind the odd dreads forming now and again, which tend to make my hair look thicker anyway…. but after coming across these disgusting monstrosities, I promise never to let it go too far, Eww I would hate to think what could be living in there!!!
