The seismic shift in trends:
- Trends are no longer seasonal and don’t come with an expiry date.
- They are dictated by communities rather than individuals.
- Hashtags can make or break a trend.
- Individuals are celebrated for their uniqueness and for driving real change.
- Beauty has become a celebration of diversity.
Celebrate hair that is ….
- fashionable and inspirational
- street creative
- focused on the model’s individuality and expresses her best self
- considerate of the model’s image and personality
- inspiring for the consumer, not frightening!
Deviate from competition hair that is…
- forced, overdone, eccentric, or off the wall
- out of touch with world trends and fashion
- not complementary of the model's skin tone, eye colour and choice of hair colour
- a combination of mismatched colouring techniques that do not work the haircut and styling
- a combination of hair colour shades that don’t harmonise or work together
- poorly finished and does not showcase the colour and cut in the best way.
TIPS
