“Punk was a very big fashion statement in the 1980’s. What fascinated me about punks was that they did things others considered distasteful and contrasting. I wanted to explore re-growth which was often seen as a bad colour, by producing a style where the ends were light with the roots dark, where hair stood up instead of lying flat, and the cut was feathered with a razor instead of using scissors. From this The Wolfman was born.”
“Golden chunky highlights was the colour trend everyone wore in the mid-90’s. This look was inspired by the bold fashion statements of the 90’s and has been interpreted with my favourite modern-day trends including a statement money piece which was prevalent during this decade.”
“In the early 2000’s one of the biggest trends was chunky highlights, using a strong contrast of shades and colours. Moving towards the mid 2000’s, we felt that this trend needed to evolve into something that was still strong, but with a much more multi tonal feel. Something that looked personal, with an expensive feel to it. This was our award winning look for the L’Oréal Colour Trophy in 2005.”
