CREATIVE EXCELLENCE - Fellowship for British Hairdressing

was undertaking the arduous task of precision cutting on dry hair.
David Drew said: “I challenge any member of the audience to find
scissor marks!” Debbie also thanked team member Tom Smith,
who had created the beautiful blackcurrant tone, which Debbie
referred to as “make up for the haircut.”
Coming all the way from Nottingham, the next master fast
becoming a familiar face on the hairdressing circuit. Angelo Vallilo
from Zullo and Holland told the audience “I will be demonstrating
a progression from last years work, working with a shorter, more
Mod feel, but keeping with the season’s key players, movement
and texture.” Angelo presented two looks, building the graduation
in the scissor over comb, whilst keeping an extended length on
top for dressing out, accentuated by stunning clean colours.
“This is the cheapest facelift
going, a carved out hairline
opens up the face, and really
highlights the cheekbones.”
Jamie Stevens
Mr X Factor himself was next, and Jamie Stevens began his
presentation with a note of thanks, stating “what a pleasure it is to
work alongside such hairdressing greats, I am always honoured to
be involved with the Fellowship.” Jamie worked on a short graphic
cut, with a carved out hairline, Jamie told the audience “This is
the cheapest facelift going, a carved out hairline opens up the
face, and really highlights the cheekbones.” The colour, applied by
Jamie’s sister Tasha, was a beautiful subtle peach hue, which
Jamie predicted would be a huge trend for Spring Summer 2012.
Fellowship Hairdresser of the Year Bruce Masefield of Sassoons
was next, working with layering, with weight at the top. Bruce
described the cut as “almost two fringes, which in turn creates
beautiful texture.” Bruce advised the audience not to rely on
product to shape the cut, but to cut the detail in. Maria
complimented Bruce’s technique and credited him with
“a beautiful rhythm when cutting, which truly makes him a joy to
watch”. Bruce also said what an honour it was to work alongside
such talent, even if it is somewhat off-putting to have to present in
front of co-worker Mark Hayes!
