Creative Hair &MakeUp

Today I had my creative hair and makeup assessment at uni, I have worked on this piece for weeks.

Thinking of my idea

Making my hair piece

Designing makeup

Creating the outfit

I really enjoyed the whole process of this piece and would definitely do a piece like this again.

My theme is The Wizard of Oz, the hair represents the whirlwind, with straw, tin and fur for the characters, the yellow brick road running through the whirlwind. I made the outfit out of tissue paper making poppies and attached it to a black boob tube top. Then the makeup I kept simple with the green on the eyes and nails for the emerald city with the natural lip.

I am really pleased with these images of my piece.

 

 

 

Work Experience

Today I and Emma worked as a team to teach children between the ages 11-19 a little bit about makeup. We showed them how to achieve a new bruise, the group really enjoyed this and there was a great atmosphere in the room. Secondly we went on and showed them the tricks of the old bruise; I feel they really enjoyed learning and trying out the bruise wheels and colours. Practicing on each other as well as the helpers that supervised them.

Lastly we went onto showing them cuts, using wax and bruise gel (as the fake blood). Once we had shown them what to do they all had a go and enjoyed experimenting and placing them on their partner’s faces and hands.

Overall I feel the day went really well. I noticed the children as well as the adults enjoyed this and me and Emma worked really well together within the group.

I really enjoyed this work experience and I would do it again.

Here are some of the images from the group that worked really hard and achieved a good end result!

Photoshop

Today in my Pdp lesson we went onto Photoshop and learnt how to airbrush pictures. I have done this before a couple of years ago but it was a good lesson to refresh my memory.

I do struggle using Photoshop so I do need more practice and help on this subject but below are some pictures of the before and after pictures of what I did this lesson.
