A Bold Transformation: Red Hair, Raccoon Stripes, and V-Bangs
Do you want a truly unique haircut? Indeed, alt-fashion hair trends are incredibly popular right now. But, combining complex geometric cuts and vivid colors takes serious professional skill. Recently, a client asked us for a massive, highly creative change. Therefore, we want to share this wild transformation today. Let us walk you through this amazing salon journey.
Assessing the Starting Canvas 
First, we examined her current hair condition carefully. Specifically, she had shoulder-length hair dyed an all-over brown. Also, there were some old, faded bleached parts hidden throughout her ends. Consequently, we had a very uneven color canvas to work with. Thus, achieving a solid, vibrant red required a highly strategic lightening plan.
The Edgy Hime Cut and V-Bangs
Next, we focused on the structural haircut first. Actually, she requested a very sharp, alternative shape. So, we cut bold V-bangs that point sharply down the middle of her forehead. Furthermore, we added blunt Hime-style face-framing pieces perfectly at her cheeks. Ultimately, this geometric cut creates a striking, anime-inspired silhouette.
Safely Lightening the Canvas
Then, the complex double process color officially began. First, we safely lightened her brown base and old bleached spots. Importantly, we needed an even, pale canvas for the new bright vivid dyes to show up. Meanwhile, we isolated the specific side sections for her requested striped pattern. As a result, her hair lifted beautifully without suffering any excess damage.
Painting Red and Blue Raccoon Stripes
Afterward, the real creative fun finally started. Specifically, we dyed her entire head a gorgeous, vibrant red. However, the sides of her face received very special, detailed attention. Here, we carefully painted horizontal red and blue raccoon stripes down the Hime pieces. Consequently, the contrasting blue stripes popped intensely against the bright red base.
The Time and Skill Required
Finally, completing this intricate look took massive dedication. Indeed, applying multiple vivid colors alongside a highly technical cut is hard work. Specifically, this entire double process creative color and haircut took exactly 4.5 hours to finish. Furthermore, the total cost for this huge transformation was exactly €320,-. The flawless, head-turning result was absolutely worth the long wait. Ultimately, our transparent pricing ensures you always know your exact budget beforehand.
