VIVIDS Pink

How To: "First, I created a smooth pony tail, then split the pony tail in half and back-combed to create fullness. Then I curled 1-inch strips of my colored hair extensions and placed/pinned the green curls first to create the "leaves." Then I pinned the pink extensions on top of the green extensions to create the "flower." I used two tones of each the green and pink to create depth, contrast and dimension. I wanted a pretty, sleek and polished flower to represent the element 'Earth.'"

How To: "Mohawks are amazing. I created a fun, but soft mohawk to resemble "Fire." I teased the mohawk section and curled and pinned hair down the center. Using a combination of back-combing and lots of hairspray, I tried to create flame-like fierceness!"
