INSPIRATION Osoreru which means fearless is a celebration of confident women Embracing color alongside strong shapes and styles.The colours are inspired by artists such as Yayoi Kusama whose exhibition was recently showing.I took my inspiration of the subculture of Osaka the colour and the vibe.I love how the bright colours kaleidoscope and blend with fashion structure and design.I view hair as a fabric and I love to weave colour, through that fabric. In the cuts and colours I create, I love to break the design down and reconstruct them into new shapes and styles. I believe hair is a fabric that can be adorned with beautiful colour.I worked with bright and bold colours contrasting and conflicting with darker shades to create mood and tone. The colour and design were inspired by looking through a kaleidoscope with repeating patterns, shapes and design, the bright and bold. TECHNIQUES For my collection, I used many different techniques,With the graphic patterns, I worked section by section so that the colours would all line up.  I worked with hair elastic bands and created systematic patterns, pre-lightened them and then coloured them using bright colours that contrasted with the darker base shades. I needed to create a colour that worked with a model that had shaved the top of her hair, so I decided to make a strong geometric pattern and then colour strands of the long hair at the back in matching bold colours.  I wanted to work with darker and brighter colours only to create harmony and balance within this collection. Although the colour palette I chose was strong, I wanted to create a collection that represented beauty and harmony. The tools I used to create these colours where paint brushes elastic bands sponges and stencils that I created using plastic.
