Hairstyles from the early 1970s is what ignited Carole Haddad's ideas for this striking Burlesque collection. Think: The Wedge, The Bob, The Shag, and The Pageboy.
"I played with classic 1970s, geometric shapes and then altered, exaggerated, and peppered the looks with quirky, punky twists," says Haddad of Corcorz Hair in Australia. "The sexiness of fishnet stockings was the inspiration for the styling, conjuring a hybrid of beautiful, opulent Burlesque and 80s punk looks. After so many years of being hailed an avant-garde hairdresser, another aim of the collection was to showcase my cutting techniques. I felt it was important to demonstrate the breadth and precision of my skills... and hopefully, weave some Zeitgeist in there too."

For Chumba Concept Salon's Belinda Keeley, inspiration emerged from a study of urban culture design, art, and the people in it. Most of the details Keely collected and photographed were uncovered in Melbourne, Australia's Windsor area. "Where Street art was once considered vandalism, it has now become my color inspiration; drawing ideas from graffiti, street life, people, and the street vendors," says Keeley. The color selections can seem like mash-ups crossed with some expensive classic hues. Color runs the spectrum-from calm to erratic, and the haircut designs are architectural in construction with clean dominating shapes mixed with a touch of free flow street art.
