Jaques Bagios' 'Bare & Dare' editorial for Chic Today Magazine features an incredible array of giant sculptural hairdos. Image after image, super-tall styles defy the limits of gravity and define avant-garde hair.
I'm particularly fond of the first image of Jaques Bagios' 'Bare & Dare'; it reminds me of the hair version of an M.C. Escher drawing. Check out some other avant-garde hair photography below.
Implications - The featured hairstyles pictured in the ‘Bare & Dare’ editorial show a strong shift in the way fashion and pop culture is represented. Many youth today want to avoid mainstream looks, so they turn to alternative solutions like the ones featured within Chic Today Magazine. Businesses that offer ideas for teens that will set them apart from the rest of the mainstream will be highly attractive for outspoken youths.
