Hair Design Principles
- Proportion: The comparative relationship of one element to another, with the guideline that hair should not exceed the width of the shoulders.
- Emphasis: The main focus that draws the eye first to a hairstyle; neglecting this can result in multiple focal points, detracting from the overall interest of the style.
Key Considerations
- Failure to consider emphasis might lead to a hairstyle that lacks a clear area of interest, resulting in a cluttered appearance.
