ICONIC EVOLUTION

Introducing a fresh take on timeless classic references, this collection captures the very essence of innovation and individuality

“Big hair is having a huge comeback, and the key to this is creating volume. I always like to reference Cindy Crawford for her signature hair - or even the likes of Sabrina Carpenter or Bella Hadid.”

“For this look I wanted to showcase Afro hair in this form, the way the hair naturally grows. This model had the most incredible Type 3C/4 hair texture, and we wanted to showcase the model’s beautiful curls in their finest glory.”

“We wanted to have a genderless look, something that was both strong and graphic but also with a sense of softness and beauty.”

“This look is a staple in men’s hair - it’s always a popular cut in the shop, whether it’s a classic crop or a buzzcut with a fade.”

“With the bob being so dominant in the salon and on celebrities, I wanted to recreate a classic bob look with a hint of a 60s film star that offered a very soft flick. Something that still looks soft but with cool precision and edge.”
