Julie Vriesinga Hair Colors Inspo NAHA – 2023

Julie Vriesinga Hair Colors Inspo NAHA - 2023

Julie Vriesinga of Salon Entre Nous is nominated again for the PBA NAHA 2023 Awards in the Hairstylist of The Year Category.  She worked with colors and products by L’Oreal Majirel  and Goldwell Elumen.

Left.  Her structured bob with shattered ends shows off color done in layers, as though it was a canvas. The base color was first applied, then the award-winning artist did a series of hand-painted diagonal crossed lines in different tones.  Lastly, she finished by tipping out certain sections with a copper glow.  The look was finished by styling the hair with a round brush blow dry, then a 1″ flatiron created folds around the parietal ridge and through the fringe to create erratic zigzag patterns.  It was set with a ribbon tied temple to temple around the head to tighten the shape through the center

Right: The short look has heavy blunt layers, a micro-chopped fringe, and a rainbow of pink colors applied from the palest blush to a dusty rose to bubble gum, and deeper tones, all creating an incredible multi-dimensional look, somehow still subtle.  Very thin and detailed sections were placed in foil throughout the head, a deeper shadow root created depth from the inside.  The cut contrasts the soft color placement. To contradict the cut, a very soft multidirectional curling iron set was then shaped using a brush and hands.

Inspo. Hair Design On Face – 2019

Inspo. Hair Design On Face - 2019

Photos: Nathan Mays

Fab, flirty, fantastic. Gelled kiss curls spiral on the face in an intricate design, by Sherri Jessee, who brings another whole concept idea for drop-dead entrances, fashion photography, fashion runways, red carpet.  Even one kiss curl is better than a boring bare face, however beautiful! The hair does need to be one length, but the idea could also work with a one length bob or most updos. The possibilities are endless. First published in my column for the December issue of Peluquerias Magazine, where there are many more hair inspo ideas.
