The year was 1969 when Philip got inspired to create this ahead of its time short wedge haircut on this beautiful natural texture hair.  The hair is a soft, structured sculpture that pairs perfectly with this model’s delicate feminine facial features.  Exquisite! 

The wedge haircut was one of the hottest looks of the 70’s but as always Philip was designing this beautiful look years before plying his mad Volumetric The Pelusi Method Haircutting skills to achieve perfection!

Philip shares, “My inspiration was the natural texture haircut movement of the 70’s which was creating dynamic shapes uniting the hair shape with the fabric of the hair.  The natural curl trend exploded in popularity from the late 70’s into the 80’s.  It was a new beauty aesthetic pioneered by models and artists like Grace Jones.”
