Hairy Masks

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Intricate Braiding & Sculptured Hair Editorial for Vision Magazine

— June 15, 2009 — Fashion
This is defiantly the most creative and avant-garde hair styling I’ve seen in a while. Carefully planned in design, inch by inch the hair works as a living mask becoming one with the model’s face.

The peace sign braid is also not only unique, but it acts as a striking accent encompassing the female form. A shot with a bohemian puffy is more than just a hairstyle; it’s a work of art.

The sculpture-like designs were photographed by Therese Aldgard. The model’s naked body against the plain, grayish background with accent lighting behind her further enrich this notion of live art.

At the same time, the fashion- and beauty-rich photography can lead to the inspiration of creative ideas for hairstylists and their clients for unique art-like hair-pieces of their own.
