I get a text message from Claire : ‘ Will get new hair tomorrow – do
you want to meet me?’ I sure do! She is a bit secretive about it just
lets me know that a little bit of pink will be involved. I am excited.
And when I first see her coming towards me I am not dissappointed.
Her hair looks like dip dyed in beautiful, yummi neapolitan ice-cream
colors! Dark chocolate fading into delicious vanilla, turning into creamy
strawberry. Give me a spoon and a napkin. We take a few pictures in the
freezing cold february sun until I can’t move my fingers and the camera
anymore so we end up at my studio to take a few more. I am glad I get
to see the rest of her outfit, the faded denim vest continuing the powdery
color palette of her hair, the slightly torn black sweater along with her
jewellery adding a bit of goth/punk to the picture and her long mesh
dress repeating the vanilla tone of her hair. With a haircolor like that
you have to work your way around it, it’s not easy to to – takes a real
pro like Claire. I am very much looking forward to our next shoot – or
to the next text message.
Claire wears vest by Only, sweater by machima, dress and ring by
weekday, bag and parka by Levi’s bracelets and necklace from Tollwood
festival.
