Starting off the collection, this ultra short retro inspired cut by Mehran, owner of Salon Boucle (in Anaheim Hills, California), is highly geometric in nature. It features a very short back with length on top that creates a V in back, which blends into a C shape on the side. It’s a very fun cut with fans of color that nicely complement each other. A rich chocolate brown was applied in back and underneath to give depth while blonde and caramel is worked through the “Mohawk-like” section on top for contrast and texture.

This short layered razor cut, with its tight sides, is reminiscent of 80’s influenced punk styles. The top is left a bit longer with an almost Mohawk feel. For the color, the root is luminized up a shade and freehand highlights were placed with bleach for a stunning blonde hue. Rubbery, almost plastic-like styling products were used for a pliable surface.  First Donato applied a thermal spray to protect the hair, then he coated with molding pomade and using low air, but high heat, directed the style into shape. Once dry, he coated with hair powder to build up the thickness.

Dress up your shorter ‘do with a slicked-back finish.

Get The Look: Starting with dry hair, add Framesi Shine and Mist all over. Comb hair neatly against the shape of your head working off of a side part.

A shearly delightful ultra short do, this perky pixie offers a piece-y finish.

Get The Look: Apply Framesi Volumizing Mousse to damp hair before blow-drying using just your fingers to lift sections up from the root. Once completely dry, add Glacier Wax to spike hair out a bit more. Pinch and twist sections around your face to finish.

A “punky Prada” inspiration with a carefully sculpted crop haircut and a ravaging pearl blonde hue.

Blow-dry hair very flat and close to the head with a Denman brush. To finish, use gloss over the surface and then add styling paste to create more texture, dimension and movement as desired.
