Style Wars-Fashion Show

Usually my Friday nights consist of family dinner, putting the 2 kiddos to bed and relaxing with the husband catching up on some DVR'd shows.
Well 2 weeks ago this was not the case! I was rockin out some fierce hair with Charlie for the Style Wars Fashion Show. If you watched Shear Genuis you know this is a twist (soft serve style) on Charlie's Marge.

We built these styles over the models natural hair with colored fake hair and then put on the head bands to cover up the hair line.

This is the winner Mondo with his model. He loved the pink hair!

This color was my favorite one. This style made our 6'1"model over 7 feet in heels! ROCK!

The Red, The White & The Blue

Here are some shots from my first solo photo shoot. I came up with the concept, cast the models and photographer. I also did all the hair (including color) and make up. I will never do both hair and make up on a photo shoot again, unless it's just one model. It was way too much work for just one person! I spent 6 hours coloring the blonde and black haired models the day before, then over 2 hours creating the red wig. The day of the shoot I spent hours just doing the hair and make up and then we still had to shoot it-I lost my voice from all the stress! Lesson learned: For a shoot with more than one model do the hair OR the make up. It was a very good learning experience to say the least. I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. Would I change a few things? Absolutely, but overall I'm happy with it. And now for the pictures:




The concept behind this was a hair-centered shoot with a twist on red, white and blue by doing red hair, blonde hair and blue black hair (black haired model does have blue streaks in the sides it's just not visible in all the pictures). It is all about the color and texture of the hair. Still trying to decide if I should enter into NAHA for 2010. What do you think?
