Happy Hippy Hair!

I want it long, straight, curly, fuzzy, snaggy, shaggy, ratty, matty
Oily, greasy, fleecy... shining, gleaming, streaming, flaxen, waxen
Knotted, polka-dotted... Twisted, beaded, braided
Powdered, flowered, and confettied, bangled, tangled, spangled, and spaghettied!
(from Hair the Musical)




Listening to 'Hair', students worked with photos of themselves creating their own 'hippy hair' using organic line and shape while others decided to do a personal Medusa make-over, giving themselves a head of hissing snakes! Each area is filled with pattern for an intricate decorative effect before finishing with a splash of soft pastel colour.

Let it fly in the breeze and get caught in the trees
Give a home to the fleas, in my hair
A home for fleas, a hive for the bees
A nest for birds, there ain't no words
For the beauty, splendor, the wonder of my hair!!!
