Celebrated behind the scenes as well as at various award shows, she has gained a great deal of respect throughout the hairdressing industry. With her latest collection release - EPOCHAL - she explores traditional shapes and movement within the medium of hair, pushing the boundaries of silhouettes and forming layers of texture to manipulate new forms. Keep reading to see her collection and learn more about the inspiration behind it. 

Epochal; an extremely important and influential moment in time. 

The inspiration for EPOCHAL was derived from a desire to interpret traditional shapes and transform them into hair art, creating an influential moment in hair. 

Creating layer upon layer of texture, dimension and form, EPOCHAL manipulates structures to demonstrate the hair’s ability to manifest itself into new embodiments. 

To continue the line and formation vision, my styling and makeup choices were simple, strong and defined in their shape and tones to complement the unique reverie. 

Entertaining a slightly futuristic vibe, I had a desire to work with different fibres and textures, which embraced my own interpretations of techniques, styles and concepts. 

The subtle shading between light and dark exaggerates the strength of the forms within the hair, giving both dimension and structure to each look. The combined looks are strong with a hint of softness, creating a depth and romances that marries everything together.
