East Bound
’Dmitry Vinokurov’s latest collection for Wella Professionals plays up structured styling and loud bursts of color.
West meets east in Dmitry Vinokurov’s take on Fusion—a 2013 Wella Professionals TrendVision category. The collection, seen exclusively on these pages, blends an Asian experimental spirit with Western high-culture to create fashion-forward looks. “Elements such as origami and Samurai helmets were our inspiration for some of the intricate designs,” says Vinokurov, who worked on the photo shoot with fellow artists Alexey Ladnov and Denis Skakunov. “Japanese prints and sakura blossoms were major influences on our color palette and placement,” Vinokurov adds. ‘

Leopard Print Hair for JPGaultier, Paris Couture Fashion Week..

Report by:
BY CHRISTINA HAN

‘Everyone, Jean Paul Gaultier has an announcement to make: More leopard print. Exemplified at his couture show, the French designer decked out hats, fur coats, floor-length dresses, clutches, and even wrists in the jungle print. Nothing was safe, not even models’ hair, which were be-speckled with the animal’s signature spots. While some heads sported sleek, aerodynamic twists, topped off with hats in various conical shapes, those without headgear got sky-high ‘dos. Swirly and sculptural.’

Hair by the brilliant Odile Gilbert who I chronicled in this past post..

My Pick ~ Orlando Pita

King of catwalk hair and hair mentor on TV the show ‘Shear Genius”, Orlando Pita is often renowned for his elaborate and Avant garde hairdo’s. But for this Vogue shoot he kept the styles (whether wigs or their own hair) very cutesy short and clean looking.. I chose them as my pick because I find them very fresh looking.

Angelo Seminara – 2013

  This gorgeous hair image is from a postcard advertising the North American tour for  three time British Hairdresser of the Year Angelo     Seminara. Also an artistic director for Davines, Truly a talented artist, just from the work I have managed to see from this great artist.   Well done and we hope to catch some more of his work along the way. Lovely..

 

Ken Pave’s Wigs

I must admit I’m always abit skeptical with wigs and pieces for the hair anyway, so when I heard there was a collaboration from Jessica Simpson and her style guru hairdresser – Ken Paves, I really wasn’t too sure. (Sorry, nothing personal) But even I have to admit after I came across a couple of their looks recently, that they looked really good!

With this first look, (Text taken from American Salon Magazine) Ken used what he called a Hairdo Angled Cut Wig in a pale blond color. He darkened the roots with ebony brown eye shadow and then razor cut the wig to create uneven choppy layers with soft edges. He then used a volumizing spray to give it the edgy finish.

Now I really like this second look, I love the feel and idea of the whole romantic braided look.

(Text from American Salon Mag) Ken used 4 black 22’” Hairdo Straight Extensions. He clipped 2 on each side of the head, starting from the front and just above the ears in a V-pattern before teasing and clipping them into place. After adding the remaining extensions on each side of the crown and creating a center part closure, he applied a Hairdo Clip In Bang that he had lifted to platinum before teasing and pinning into place.

Now what do you all think? Would you go and buy some pieces or wigs just to have some fun and create some new looks?
