Militant Knotted Hairstyles

The Self Service #40 Issue Features Some Interesting Hair Looks

— March 24, 2014 — Pop Culture
Models Amanda Murphy, Juliana Schurig and Elizabeth Erm sport edgy hairdos in the 'Faces of Tomorrow' editorial for Self Service Magazine #40. Hair stylist Luke Hersheson decided to forego typical curls in favor of something a little more unconventional. Whether it’s a knotted take on the classic braid or choppy bangs, each style is a guaranteed head-turner. Meanwhile, makeup artist Karim Rahman opted for a minimal look, ensuring that these “faces of tomorrow” were fresh and dewy.

As for the fashion, editor Suzanne Koller interspersed the boxy, utilitarian wardrobe with some ruffled, feminine pieces to keep things diverse. 

Overall, the editorial—lensed by photographer Collier Schorr—rings in the Spring/Summer fashion season with a raw and unusual vibe.
