The mysterious case of the white-haired killer is an ode to Agatha Christie, and the over stylized adaptations of her work that I grew up on. The Collection evokes feelings of classic murder mystery book covers or 50's film noir posters.
The looks were created with a very obvious and cohesive colour story with the goal of showcasing the entirety of the barbering skillset, showcasing different lengths, textures, styling and colour services.

Look 1. Featuring 2 models; a midlength pompadour with the nape in an exentuated flick, and a model with half bleached hair inspired by Betty Boop.

Look 2. An afro 'crown' sectioned and styled into 5 points, and paired with a high and tight skin fade.

Look 3. Features 2 models again, one with a overtoned grown out full scalp bleach and soft textured mohawk, the other with a barrell design on top and finger waves on the side with a blonde money piece front hairline.

Look 4. A short smooth "grown out buzz cut' look with checkerboard colour detail.
