Linda Yodice, artistic director for Paul Mitchell Professional Hair Color, paints the glamour of ’60s color, millennium-style.
Inspired by the colorful ’60s—when choreographer Bob Fosse was at the pinnacle of his jazz dance career—colorist Linda Yodice, along with Scott Cole (fellow artistic director for Paul Mitchell Professional Hair Color) and team took their models from the matchy-matchy, early-to-mid ’60s to today, where synchronized beauty isn’t nearly as important as personal expression. The Fosse tie-in? Each model—wearing a classic ’60s ’do—looks as though she has just finished a rigorous workout of shoulder-rolling, feet-skimming and leg-bending moves à la Fosse’s most frenetic dance, “The Rich Man’s Frug.” “Like fashion that’s always glancing back before moving forward, our Postmodern Jazz collection features cuts, colors and stylings that are rooted in classic ’60s beauty,” says Yodice. “In the true fashion spirit of that era, we matched the models’ colors to wefts and created ‘Sultry Sable,’ ‘Bashful Blond’ and ‘Refined Red’ color designs. We shot the first looks with matching colors and hairpieces as a tribute to ’60s classic upstyles. Then, we mixed up the colors to create contrast for a new take on ’60s glam. Our collection’s color simplicity [all but one coloration can be done in a single step] is what gives it its strength and dexterity...elements that echo today’s color ideals.” Craving to see more Postmodern Jazz images and learn about Scott Cole’s take on this collection?
