Dani Doom gets a tattoo.
blog by Dani (Front desk coordinator at Hairroin Salon)
Thats right kids! You know how i like to keep you all on your toes wether its a new haircolor, new funky haircut, super long extensions, or yes a NEW THROAT TATTOO!! I've gotten all of my previous work done back home in Philadelphia, so when i finally got the itch to get another tattoo, the next step was finding the PERFECT artist. Someone super rad, and who could perfectly match my new tattoo to the current tattoos i already have. Let me tell you, the search was well worth it! After coming up with a solid concept i was stuck on, I went across the street to True Tattoo, i was recommended to see Will " The Butcher" Card, from the moment we sat down and consulted i knew this was right! He sat down with me, asked me my ideas, showed me some concepts, and actually TOLD ME that one of the ideas i had he didnt like and it wouldnt fit the concept! THANK YOU, cuz now thinking back on it, i think he was absolutely right! So that night i booked my appointment, im not going to lie, i was a little nervous, i mean after all i was getting my throat tattooed! We spent awhile getting the stencil just right, then he did some free hand sketching, which i absolutly ADORE, then..got to work. We started on the shoulders, up the neck, down the chest, then the part i was dreading my throat and my chin, was actually the EASIEST PART OF THE WHOLE TATTOO! Let me tell you, if any of you have ever seen me or my tattoos, you know im pretty heavily tattooed, and let me just say, Will has the most gentle touch, EVER, he made the whole experience a great time, we laughed and joked the whole time, took a few breaks, and he made sure to ask me about every hald hour 45 minutes if i was doing ok. So, my word of advice if youre looking for that perfect artist that will treat you like a client and not just an artist looking to make a dollar, go see Will over at True Tattoo! and while you're at it, come on over to Hairroin and see me and my AMAZING new throat piece! Check it out!
THANKS WILL!

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.

animal hair!
blog written by Beatrice (Senior Stylist at Hairroin Salon)
I found these photos a while ago and thought i'd share them with everyone.
These are little animal shaped hats made completely out of hair by the late Nagi Noda.
In the past, Nagi Noda has been responsible for some amazing art projects, so to see her build these animals out of hair was really inspiring to me. I'm still not sure how she did it!?
The elephant is my favorite! i wish she had made a panda :)

admiration.
blog written by Doug (Junior stylist at Hairroin Salon)
Anyone that knows me knows that I don't talk myself up. I don't have a big ego, I never admit or make up stories upon how great I am... unless I do it with a wink and a smile, and let you know that I'm joking.
The words you have just read were planted for you to take these next few lines seriously and know that I am in earnest.
I am very proud to work at a salon in
which I happen to see literally every day, a stylist feeling compelled to sit down in admiration and awe to watch another fellow stylist work their craft in
the chair besides them. This I can say happens everyday. To me, this means two things, the stylist working the hair is completely dedicated to their craft and in top form and the one watching shows a deep appreciation for that very craft and continues to be inspired
to either learn something new and/or appreciate the beauty of the art that is before them.

part time model.
blog written by Beatrice (Senior stylist at Hairroin Salon)
Marcy usually cuts my hair, and i trust whatever she does. Last year she cut my hair into a sort of bowl cut bang that touched my eyelashes- very cute. We took some photos of that haircut and entered them into a National competition for hairstylists hosted by Davines products. She won the comepetition and went on to compete in Barcelona at the World Wide Hair Tour!
This year, we decided to test our luck again and take some photos of my latest haircut. Our photoshoot took place at my downtown loft and was shot by Steven Barston, a good friend and extremely talented photographer.
We decided on a sort of Twiggy look, with a much more modern haircut.
the inspiration:

men's accessories
blog written by Patrick (Senior Stylist at Hairroin Salon)
Accessories can make or break your look. It’s important to consider appropriateness and quantity. I personally don’t think you can have too much, but I am frequently vetoed. Guys are getting more opportunities to flair. Everywhere you go there are new men’s accessories. Guess always has an interesting collection, as does Urban Outfitters. I personally favor vintage, one of a kind and artisan pieces. I started my collection in my parents’ cast offs. I still have some great things that I stole from my dad, like the shotgun tie bar. Then I started combing garage sales, estate sales and flea markets. As I developed my personal style, I started scouting galleries and art shows for artisan items.
(Check out the watermelon tourmaline ring in the pics)
One rule I have is that the more unique and distinctive a piece is, the more likely it should stand alone. Simple chains and beaded necklaces layer easily (fig. 1) but larger ornaments look best as a showcase item. I’m also a big fan of multiple bracelets but can rarely pull off more than five at a time. A ring on every finger is overkill but don’t be afraid to pile on three or four at time like my friend, actor Darren Brooks (fig. 2). The most important thing about accessories is that you be comfortable in your skin and that your “stuff” doesn’t inhibit your ability to work. That said, pile it on… this is LA after all.
