When reviewing the work of the "paper maestros", one is only amazed - how many wonderful works can be created using only this rather cheap and simple material. So, we've already seen the paper car and paper decorations, paper cakes and paper musicians. And two talented girls Nikki Salk and Amy flurry from Atlanta create from paper hair and hairstyles … The result is real wigs. Girls and fashion are two inseparable concepts, so there are no questions about why the creative duo decided to start making just such sculptures from paper. Every girl is an experimenter at heart, but with her own hair it is not always possible to realize all ideas and fantasies. And then paper, a blade, scissors come to the rescue …
Wedding hairstyles and home, ultra-modern and retro-style, short curls or long curls - all these paper wigs can be tried on both on yourself and on mannequins during installation exhibitions that girls from time to time spend in Atlanta, New York, Los Angeles, Paris, Germany and Canada. They managed to turn fashion into art, and make art fashionable, and it all started with simple paper cutouts, when the girls decided to try their hand at the now popular hand-made genre "paper cutting".
However, in addition to intricate hairstyles, wigs, Nikki Salk and Amy Flurry cut and construct other sculptures from paper, including those for exhibitions and shows of famous brands. For example, they once prepared an exclusive collection of paper sculptures for Cartier. These and other works can be found on the duo's website.

Hairstyles for animals that people will envy: creative advertising of the German company Braun
Who among us does not remember the scene from the legendary film "Striped Flight", when the barmaid lovingly combed her wards' hair, assuring everyone that unkempt lion's manes are out of fashion nowadays. The animal hairstyle "I'm a fool with my dad" became a hit back in the 60s, but modern stylists also decided to approach the advertising project of the German company Braun creatively and created a series of funny animal styling. The resulting photo session can be safely called "I am a fashionable guy with my dad."

Bald men and water wigs. Water Wigs Photo Project by Tim Tadder
Anyone who is not afraid to wet their heads is bald or shaven-haired men. It's just business that to get a bald spot wet with a napkin, and then wipe it with a rag. And also men rarely fool themselves and those around them with the subject "I have something with my face here" or "I'm fat in this photo." This is probably why American photographer Tim Tadder tried on his Water Wigs photographic project on hairless men
