jhameiaElie sent out pics. He didn't resize them, so I had to spend some time doing that myself. I have timelines of specific people, and more than one pics of some, and Elie, you need to spend more time on learning how to take good photographs. They're good for most part, but require some work!
Alicia is from the Bahamas. Her hair is the black woman's extremely curly hair, but it's also very soft to the touch, and it's completely virgin hair (meaning no dye was in it at all). It was extremely short, too, so there was no cutting it at all.
Melanie worked on Alicia, giving her a headband along the front, and some patches of colour through the rest of the head. She meant to go with coppers, reds and a violet colour.
So here's Alicia without colour:
Black hair has to be pre-lightened:
And the end result:
It didn't work out too well with the violets, so they had to add in more red, and left one patch to show what the pre-lightened colour looks like. Alicia's going to get that coloured in, and possibly go more red.
Elie has virgin hair as well, or had, rather, and it's naturally extremely curly and thick, and long to boot. He looks pretty shaggy most of the time, and unkempt if he's not careful.
They lightened his hair two shades, and threw in platinium streaks. He looked like a rock star at some points:
Finally, they straightened his hair with a flat iron, a tool he has to get now, because he can't keep his hair straight.
The difference is just amazing.
Kyla is a twin, she began with either light brown or dark brown hair, I can't remember which is which. Donna had her given bright blond up front, with red all around, and a dark brown at the back. As I mentioned, she was a wet cut model, and Elie's a dry cut model.
Here's Kyla with hair freshly dyed:
And this is the back of her haircut when Donna was done with her onstage:
I swear, mullets never looked so sexy.
Here's Elie with Kyla and Kelsey after the first set when the first two got their haircut. Elie is now ridiculously vain, but with good reason:
Here's a whole section dedicated to the collection models. They were divided into two categories: Belle Du Jour and Belle Du Nuit. I learnt Friday that they meant, respectively, "Woman of Day" and "Woman of Night". They're part of the "Rare Species" collection, and every model has an alternate name corresponding to the animal their hair is supposed to mimick.
First, the Belle Du Jour:
The Enchanting Creature - aka the Asp, with snakelike twists:
Winged Nymph - The Dragonfly, flying out, with different shades depending on the angle you look from:
Fantastic Water Sprite (Yours Truly) - the Spider, the curls are feathery to imitate the spider's web:
Then we also had a Beau Du Jour. (Elie technically counts as a Beau du Jour too, but he was a cut model so he didn't stand with us.) Naturally, this role fell to Sean:
Then, Belle Du Nuit:
The Rare Bird: - the Peacock, she has drawn brown and blue in her hair like a peacock's eyes:
Magnetic Fairy - I don't remember what animal, but I'm pretty sure it's some sort of insect.
Mysterious Madonna - the Python. The braid is taken from strands from the front:
This is me fresh from Stella, the makeup artist, but with curlers still in my hair:
And these are random pictures from the break:
I rather liked that last pic. But have some more, with added Sean goodness:
Not all of them, though. Sucks.
Here's Lori and Donna. Lori's based in Bedford, and Donna's the crazy Jamaican lady based in Toronto.
You can tell how serious about hairstyling Donna is - she's got hairclips on her jacket!
All of us with Donna:
Elie with Donna - note the feminine thrust of the hip:
Me with Donna - note the feminine thrust of the breasts:
.... yes, Elie, I do find that amusing.
And I hope that didn't kill your computer =)
