  • Learning from past design mistakes is crucial for continuous improvement in hairstyling skills.

Planning Steps

  • "Work the plan" involves selecting the necessary tools and techniques for hairstyle execution.
  • Key planning steps do not include "consult a mentor."

Design Elements

  • Form: Represents the mass or general outline of a hairstyle and is essential for creating focal points.
  • Space: Defined as the area occupied by a hairstyle.
  • Parallel Lines: Repeating lines in hairstyles that can be either straight or curved.
  • Design Texture: Refers to the directional wave patterns or illusion of motion in the hair.

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.

  • Failure to consider emphasis might lead to a hairstyle that lacks a clear area of interest, resulting in a cluttered appearance.
