Got the winter blues? Jaymz Marsters (@Jaymzcutshair) is battling clouds with this sunny lemon drop color design.
The Norfolk, England artist says he tries "to incorporate alot of things I enjoy into the hair I create. One of my big influences is Japanese culture/fashion and musicians like Kyary Pamyu Pamyu. I like to create designs that have a big impact on people but yet make them wearable for everyday life. Coming from a small town in England, people like to try and stand out as much as they can so I like to keep their colors fresh and forever changing. I try to keep one step ahead of my clients and start thinking of their possible future colurs before I apply their current shade which we will have to try and remove so i can keep the hairs integrity in the best condition I can."
When MODERN saw this yellow/platinum ombre on Instagram we tracked down Marsters to get the how-to.
