Throughout this project I have learnt lots and become more open minded with my makeup and hair designs. Before this project I had some knowledge on tribal, I’ve seen photos and watched a program. But I had never known about their beliefs and why they dress as they do, but from this project I now know a lot more behind tribes and know about lots of different tribes. I have also learnt a lot of different techniques for hair and makeup and I wanted to make sure I had shown off my new techniques within my final images and I feel I have done this. I have shown off my new technique of scarification within my editorial images, and I have also shown off adding props and creating shapes within the hair, the real inspiration for my hair was when I met Seema Chopra. I had to overcome my bad habit of not liking bumps on the skin, I chose to sit and watch the video of scarification, two years ago I would of not been able to watch that video as I’m so Squamish but now I was able to watch it and then create it on the skin. Unfortunately my Scarification was not as good as I have practiced before but this is a technique I will need to work on as a makeup artist. I think the makeup and hair I chose for each look would work best for the genre I chose, in editorial the scars would show up best and the dots for the catwalk would be bold enough for everyone to see. My design development for catwalk was good because initially I wanted to do coloured dots but from my practices I could see that coloured dots would not work so I then change it to black and white and I’m very glad I did. I feel in this project I have developed my skills as both a makeup artist and a hair stylist and both of my images are what I was aiming for.
