Hairstyle Ideas

When searching for hairstyle ideas the thought that had to bared in mind was that the actress's hair was short so there was a limit on what to style the hair like. The idea of purchasing wigs was considered however we decided that using the actress's real hair would be a better idea as wigs are quite an expensive prop to purchase and also vigorous movements will be used throughout the video such as the actress violently shaking her head and the wig may not be secure enough to stay on.




The image above was selected as a hairstyle idea as a quiff has been and continues to be a popular hairstyle. This image however overlaps the hair giving it a more funky and trendy look which is what we want the actress to represent as you find this stereotypically in music videos. This particular hairstyle will be used with the leather costume as combined together they will show a rock chic style much like a bad girl theme which links in with the video as the actress is not a feminine character. The hairstyle also allows the eyes to stand out most by the hair not covering any area of the face allowing the actress to show off her main features as it is the eyes on a female that attracts the male.



This second image was chosen as a hairstyle idea because of its shock factor as it captures your eye for being so extravagant. This links in directly with the whole theme of the video, the idea of the actress being a cannibal and eating people. The hairstyle will be used with the animal costumes as it represents the actress's wild side. Although the hairstyle is shocking it is also quite stylish as a Mohawk style is used by spiking the top up and flattening the sides.



The third and final image was chosen for a hairstyle idea as this is what the actress's personal hairstyle is. We chose this because it will be used with the casual costume and we wanted to bring a personal touch to the character to allow the actress to characterize herself and become the cannibal so the video is far more realistic. It will show the actress's normal side which will allow the contrast of the cannibal to be shown more clearly and flamboyantly. The hairstyle is still stylish as it was inspired from Rihanna who is a well known and very popular singer, however it also shows through its choppy fringe that the actress is perhaps unstable and is covering/hiding something.
