NAHA. texture.

blog written by Luis (Senior stylist at Hairroin Salon)

I wanted to introduce my losing NAHA entry:

I entered the category of Texture. I Honestly felt that if I solely worked with a reversive texture I would at least get nominated. To my surprise; and from the looks of the current finalists; I need to use wigs. I needed to mount and attach different textured wigs together in order to create an unbelievable shape. Perhaps next year I too will wrap synthetic hair around picture frames, styrafoam cones and spheres. I figure its the only way to get noticed at NAHA. Gone are the days when you make semi realistic hair shapes out of hair attached to a humans Head.
In my entry I channelled a bit of greek mythology. I felt it was an excellent source of inspiration. I. Was immediately drawn Aphrodite, Medusa, and the Trojan Army.
I am currently working on some sketches that will serve as a foundation for my next NAHA execution.

We have spent many nights brainstorming photoshoot concepts together, and even visited the Los Angeles Contemporary Museum of Art for artistic inspiration!
here are some photos from when we presented our ideas to one another on a class night...
