Some lovely images from Soma magazine, sorry they are not very clear copies but you can still get the idea of these lovely shapes, Hair by Ryutaro at AKA.
Admittedly the first shot looks abit too perfect or should I say abit too touched up but I love the shape regardless.
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.
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..
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?
Came across these strong looking images from American Salon magazine and figured it was about time I did a post for the boys!
Kurt Kueffner is a men’s barber/groomer/entrepreneur. In a time when men are looking for more than your old barber shop 5minute haircut but then are not ready to step into the beauty salon where lots of women are scary looking with their foils in the hair, we have the modern type Barber Shops. Kurt opened his Barber shop alongside David Raccuglia, named MENSDEPT. in Minneapolis and since then he has built a reputation for his great men’s work as well as their own product line.
I took afew of his haircuts from their latest collection to show you some fabulous strong work where Kurt was influenced from a very young age by the traditional Barber techniques from the past.
You have to admit, these guys look ‘Sharp”’!
And here’s a picture of the modern day Barber Shop just because I love the way it looks…. for more info on their barber shop and work check out MENSDEPT. and next time your in Minneapolis for business, maybe you should stop by..
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.’
I like this tube head shape, its well done, in proportion and cute looking. A shape like this could’ve gone drastically wrong but well done to Gio Campora from Wall Group for this styling for Marie Claire.
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!
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…
