ESTETICA Magazine USA (3/2022)

Photo Finish We asked a selection of top international artists from The UK, <strong>USA</strong> and Asia to showcase their look which they feel would sit perfectly on a magazine front cover. They definitely delivered! Gary Kelly & Marie Scarano MINIMAL, BUT EDGY This look is part of a Spring Summer collection for Newance by Topchic. For this collection, I wanted to bring coolness into Summer. Overall, I played with a selection of shades to create a harmony between warm and cool. For the hair color itself, I made use of matte ash and cool brown in a block coloring technique to create the smoky effect. The cut is minimal, but edgy, with disconnection through the fringe to enhance the model’s chin line. To finish off, the hair was styled in a sleek look with high shine to give her a more editorial and edgy look.

This sexy, soft but seriously edgy mullet creates sheer presence which is full of texture and movement. The mullet is a beautiful shape and enabled me to showcase all my favorite cutting techniques to create the look – I used channel cutting, slide cutting and texturising to create a wearable, on-trend style.

MULTI-DIMENSIONAL BLONDE This image is simply beautiful. Inspired by salon trends and client requests, we created a sumptuous, enriched blonde which is bright and has a blended variety of tones throughout; it's perfect for the autumnal season which lies ahead. Creating this look using three to four different blonde shades achieves a multi-dimensional feel. It also encompasses texture and volume throughout – both among the biggest trends requested in salons at present. When creating this look as part of our new collection from Joico, it was important for us to create looks that showcased current trends, as well as those being requested in-salon.

Modern painting often uses solid colors combined with unusual textures in order to differentiate the feel - just like in this look. Solid colors (level 2N - Redken Chromatics) create a solid field, but in contrast, pointing/sliding cutting techniques achieve separation. A wax gives definition, proving there is order, even in chaos! Allen Furlan (<strong>USA</strong>) Hair: Allen Furlan/Make-up: Ashley Zimmel/Photo: John Ng
