- Style Inspiration: Diversity by Hairkrone, Spain
Hairkrone presents its Diversity collection, inspired by the aesthetics derived from the K-POP musical style, the popular music of South Korea, so present today, which fuses pop, electronica and new wave, among other styles. An aesthetic without distinction of gender, where bleached skins and dyes in fantasy tones prevail, and the explosion of colour and the overlapping of accessories make us think of a crazy Korean rococo. Haircuts inspired by the figures who succumb to this fashion, the "KPOP Idols", South Korean singers and dancers who attract the attention of thousands of fans. Cuts that sacrifice the mane to play with higher volumes, with superimposed layers and hair shaved at the lower area to generate a depth effect.

- Local Inspiration from Werner Botha at Wernology Hair Design
Take a look at the incredible transformation from Werner Botha on his client at Wernology Hair Design in Dunkeld, JHB. "The client's concern was that her hair was just hanging, flat and had no style. She also struggles with having to constantly colour her roots due to being so grey. I gave her a new look by cutting her hair into a one length bob with soft graduation on the ends. This cut creates volume, fullness and a beautiful shape that can easily be styled." Click image below to view the Instagram post. Process: The colour I decided to do was a chocolate from Biosense (5.0 + 5.37 and 20vol) to cover the grey and to give richness to the hair. I also did scattered highlights using Biosense bleach and 20 volume as well as Olaplex. I toned with 9.32 Biosense and 5vol. The highlights creates dimension and softness in the hair and also helps with a softer re-growth.
