Shu Uemura Muse Image Awards

Shu Uemura Muse Image Awards 2015

Here is my Final image for this years Shu Uemura Muse Image Awards.

 I made it down to the final 12 from the UK to take part in the Manchester photo shoot, with Photographer Jack Eames.

On the day i was given one hour and fifteen minuets to create the fished look on my model Mila from First Models London. 

I was mentored by the amazing India Miller, she was on hand to guid us through the day if we need any assistance on the day.

First the hair was prepped using Ample Angora into dry hair, using my god Air i could control the flyways and blow dry the hair into the direction i wanted the hair to fall. 

I then sectioned the hair into two pulling the bottom hair into i high pony tail at the crown. Securing the pony with Detail Master fixing gel spray for extra hold and shine to the sides and back of the head. Hair was then braided with a rope twist that i turned into a knot at crown.

 With the front section i set the hair using a rick rack technique to give the hair a brushed out crimp effect. Then i manipulated the hair into an overhang shape at the front of the head. 

When we came to shooting i wanted to get lots of movement into the shot, so we created a lot of wind that Jack managed to capture beautifully.

Very BIG Catwalk

Very BIG Catwalk 

A new world record has been set for most models on a catwalk 

The new Guinness World record was set in Liverpool as 3,651 people took part in ‘The Very Big Catwalk’ as part of 175th birthday celebrations for the city’s passenger ship firm Cunard.

I was representing Beauty Works Hair Extensions, styling the hair for Press & VIP guests at the event. Among those who took part in the record-breaking spectacle, held beside the River Mersey, alongside celebrities including TV presenter Rochelle Humes from the Saturdays, football legend John Barnes, Lauren Pope from The Only Way Is Essex and telly icon Christopher Biggins.

Here is one of the looks i created for Liz McClarnon, Atomic Kitten 

I applied Beauty Works Deluxe Clip-ins in shade 613/24 then cut to the same length as the natural hair. To finish the look i styled the hair using god Curve classic tong, waving the hair back away from the face. Liz was presenting the show in association with Heart FM & Very.com
