TIME FOR A CHANGE
With Joico Global Artistic Director, Richard Mannah
A new year. A new vibe. And a versatile new haircut that takes its style inspo from actress, Kristen Stewart. That was the vision from Joico Global Artistic Director, Richard Mannah, who created a transformation that’s both edgy and adaptable for 2021 and beyond. Get all the how-to’s – and his change-it-up styling tricks – here:
THE BACK STORY
“We completely transformed her look,” says Richard of this chameleon-like cut that beautifully boasts both short and long elements. “Inspired by Kristen Stewart, we decided to do a undercut version, as the client had so much hair.
Why an undercut? “This technique narrows the look and creates versatility for the shape. It can be worn classically or messy depending on which Joico styling products are used,” explains Richard.
