Gorgeously Gritty, Inspiring Vision And Flawless Skill From Richard Phillipart

Politics, culture, bygone eras, personal stories… it all meshed and motivated Richard Phillipart to create two arresting looks for one of our best-loved Creative HEAD front cover stories back in 2018. This is two minutes of creative genius, and we’re still swooning.

The French Bob Is Going Nowhere – This Is How To Perfect The Style, Complete With a Colour Transformation

A quick-fire Masterclass from Allilon educators Kate and Madeleine, which covers how to create a beautiful, sunkissed blonde colour and achieve the ultimate French bob.

Join Allilon expert educators, Kate and Madeleine, as they guide you through a transformative journey exploring our signature house model, Saffron.

“Saffron’s journey begins with a vibrant, deep red hue, transitioning gracefully towards a sun-kissed blonde ideal for the summer months,” says Madeleine. “Employing a precise application technique suitable for salon use, I’ll delicately colour the darker strands while preserving the pre-lightened areas.”

Regarding the French bob cut, Kate explains: “Our vision was to craft a timeless, chic French bob, blending precision with effortless elegance. Using scissors for precise shaping and the feather razor for subtle interior layers, we’ve infused Saffron’s hair with texture and fluidity. Embracing the natural drying process, we’ve achieved a soft, salon-ready look that exudes sophistication.”

Heart-pumping, sheer drops, the wind in your face… the freedom a set of wheels can give you is exhilarating. From boards to skates to bikes, they can take you where you need to go, where you want to go, where you must go next. Captured on a summer’s day at Harrow skatepark in 2021, with genuine skate park regulars modelling the hair looks, this Creative HEAD shoot in partnership with BaByliss PRO is a celebration of freedom and a showcase of pure talent.
