Welcome to Hair. It's the semifinal and only four people | 0:00:02 | 0:00:04 | |
remain in the fight to be named Britain's best amateur hairstylist. | 0:00:04 | 0:00:08 | |
'Last week, the stylists attempted to impress judges Alain Pichon | 0:00:08 | 0:00:11 | |
'and Denise McAdam with elegant up-dos.' | 0:00:11 | 0:00:14 | |
My birthday obviously. It's absolutely stunning. | 0:00:14 | 0:00:16 | |
-'..precision cutting...' -I don't want to make the first cut. | 0:00:16 | 0:00:19 | |
'..and out-of-this-world, sci-fi creations.' | 0:00:19 | 0:00:22 | |
May the force be with you. | 0:00:22 | 0:00:25 | |
'16-year-old Kobi impressed with his elegant alien.' | 0:00:25 | 0:00:28 | |
Your construction is pretty remarkable, I have to say. | 0:00:28 | 0:00:31 | |
'But for critical care nurse Annie...' | 0:00:31 | 0:00:33 | |
I've no idea what I'm doing to be honest with you. | 0:00:33 | 0:00:36 | |
'..her time in the competition was over. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:39 | |
'This week, it's the semifinal and just four contestants remain.' | 0:00:39 | 0:00:43 | |
We want to blown away - it's your last chance. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:46 | |
'The stylists will have to stand up to the pressure...' | 0:00:46 | 0:00:48 | |
-I'm not going to get it finished. -This is the anarchist. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:51 | |
'..and show the judges they have what it takes...' | 0:00:51 | 0:00:54 | |
-I don't know where it's gone wrong. -The theme is brides. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:59 | |
'..to walk up the aisle to the final.' | 0:00:59 | 0:01:00 | |
I just feel like I'm going to go home. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:02 | |
They are going to have to reach a level | 0:01:02 | 0:01:04 | |
that they've never been before. | 0:01:04 | 0:01:06 | |
-Almost perfect. -Wow! | 0:01:06 | 0:01:07 | |
The judges are ready, | 0:01:07 | 0:01:09 | |
the stylists can't wait to get started and neither can I. | 0:01:09 | 0:01:12 | |
Let's get to work on Hair. | 0:01:12 | 0:01:13 | |
Good morning. | 0:01:28 | 0:01:29 | |
Welcome back, semifinalists. | 0:01:29 | 0:01:31 | |
Ready for more hair? | 0:01:31 | 0:01:33 | |
As usual, in the first round, the judges want to see you | 0:01:34 | 0:01:37 | |
incorporating a set element into your hairstyles. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:40 | |
This week's set element is, the punk classic, the mohican. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:45 | |
The judges want to see gravity-defying mohicans. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:49 | |
Judges, tell them more. | 0:01:49 | 0:01:51 | |
From here to here at a 90-degree angle all the way. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:55 | |
I want to see sleek, sharp at the sides, and, | 0:01:55 | 0:01:58 | |
of course, secure. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:00 | |
Also, we are looking for perfect symmetry. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:03 | |
It's going to be completely central | 0:02:03 | 0:02:05 | |
and the width has to be the same from the front hairline to the back. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:10 | |
Sounds easy enough. You have one hour and 15 minutes. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:13 | |
Your time starts now. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:14 | |
In this challenge, the stylists have chosen a model with the hair type | 0:02:16 | 0:02:20 | |
they want to work with. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:21 | |
-You OK? -Yeah. You? -Good thank you. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:25 | |
-Hello, how are you? -I'm fine. | 0:02:25 | 0:02:27 | |
Nice to meet you. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:28 | |
-You know what you're having? -Yes. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:31 | |
I don't even think I'm going to take the moisture out of your hair. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:38 | |
Why, Alain, have you chosen the mohican? | 0:02:40 | 0:02:42 | |
I think it's really important to learn how to fix the hair, | 0:02:42 | 0:02:46 | |
make it stand up all the way and how to make it hold. | 0:02:46 | 0:02:49 | |
So there's a technique for it, | 0:02:49 | 0:02:51 | |
that's what we're expecting from this challenge. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:53 | |
What's the perfect mohican? | 0:02:53 | 0:02:55 | |
The proportions are very important, cos obviously | 0:02:55 | 0:02:57 | |
if you're a wider mohican, you have to be much higher to carry that. | 0:02:57 | 0:03:01 | |
It should balance. | 0:03:01 | 0:03:02 | |
You can buzz it or you can slick it, lift it up into a pony tail. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:06 | |
-Many variations. -It's their interpretation that we've asked for, | 0:03:06 | 0:03:09 | |
but it would be really good to see a classic mohican. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:13 | |
Threatening and Edgy, the mohican | 0:03:16 | 0:03:18 | |
originated with Native American warriors, | 0:03:18 | 0:03:20 | |
who plucked, rather than shaved the sides of their head. | 0:03:20 | 0:03:24 | |
It was picked up in the 1970s by young British punks who used | 0:03:24 | 0:03:27 | |
flour and water, sugar | 0:03:27 | 0:03:29 | |
and even glue to style their gravity-defying mohicans. | 0:03:29 | 0:03:32 | |
Today, the edge has been taken out of the style | 0:03:32 | 0:03:35 | |
and it's been seen on the catwalk and football field. | 0:03:35 | 0:03:38 | |
Working with Afro-Caribbean hair is the norm for me. | 0:03:42 | 0:03:46 | |
It's something that I'm very familiar with, so working with it | 0:03:46 | 0:03:50 | |
at this stage of the competition, | 0:03:50 | 0:03:51 | |
hopefully becomes an advantage to me. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:54 | |
Home hairstylist Marvin has his neighbour's queuing up | 0:03:56 | 0:03:59 | |
on the sofa for the latest hair trends. | 0:03:59 | 0:04:02 | |
His mohican will be formed by a series of pompoms | 0:04:02 | 0:04:05 | |
which will be shaped into arches along the head. | 0:04:05 | 0:04:08 | |
-Marvin. -Hi, Denise. | 0:04:08 | 0:04:10 | |
So how are you going to interpret the mohican? | 0:04:10 | 0:04:12 | |
My inspiration comes from the Loch Ness Monster. | 0:04:12 | 0:04:14 | |
I'm going to get my base structure down with the hair bands, | 0:04:14 | 0:04:17 | |
so I'm going to bring it up and back and connect it into each one. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:22 | |
-I notice you're using the bristle brush. -Yeah. | 0:04:22 | 0:04:24 | |
-Why is that? -With Afro-Caribbean hair, | 0:04:24 | 0:04:27 | |
we have a lot more problem of smoothing the hair over, | 0:04:27 | 0:04:30 | |
so I find using the comb to tackle the problem underneath | 0:04:30 | 0:04:34 | |
and then using the bristle brush to smooth over on top, | 0:04:34 | 0:04:36 | |
it gives it a cleaner finish. | 0:04:36 | 0:04:39 | |
-That's why I prefer to use... -And it works well with the pomade? | 0:04:39 | 0:04:42 | |
It works very well. | 0:04:42 | 0:04:43 | |
Marvin was using a bristle brush where I would use a comb. | 0:04:45 | 0:04:48 | |
He's getting a really good effect. | 0:04:48 | 0:04:51 | |
He's using pomade, it's a cross between a gel and a cream. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:55 | |
You've really got to brush it in well. | 0:04:55 | 0:04:57 | |
Traditionally a men's styling product, | 0:04:57 | 0:05:00 | |
pomade first became popular in the early 20th century. | 0:05:00 | 0:05:03 | |
It's associated with slick styles such as ducktails and quiffs, | 0:05:03 | 0:05:07 | |
making it a great choice for creating a sleek mohican. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:10 | |
Semifinals - just going to have to put in everything. | 0:05:12 | 0:05:15 | |
Serious business now, in it to win it. | 0:05:15 | 0:05:17 | |
16-year-old Kobi is keen to graduate from his Saturday job | 0:05:19 | 0:05:22 | |
at his local salon. | 0:05:22 | 0:05:25 | |
He plans to create a modern version of the Mohican with shaved sides. | 0:05:25 | 0:05:29 | |
-Hello. -Hello. | 0:05:31 | 0:05:32 | |
You got long hair there, what's the plan? | 0:05:32 | 0:05:34 | |
I'm going to be actually cutting in the mohican to create that | 0:05:34 | 0:05:38 | |
classic shape with the shaved sides. | 0:05:38 | 0:05:40 | |
I'm going to make a twist on it - | 0:05:40 | 0:05:41 | |
I'm not going to have such a small panel, going quite wide. | 0:05:41 | 0:05:45 | |
So what made you think of the wider mohican? | 0:05:45 | 0:05:48 | |
I wanted to make it more current, I wanted to put my own | 0:05:48 | 0:05:51 | |
twist on it so it looks a bit more trendy, a bit more cool. | 0:05:51 | 0:05:54 | |
Can't wait to see it. | 0:05:54 | 0:05:56 | |
The plan is to be perfect, shiny, slick, very precise. | 0:05:56 | 0:06:01 | |
29-year-old Dominika studied art and design in Poland and brings the same | 0:06:02 | 0:06:06 | |
attention to detail to her work as a photographer's assistant. | 0:06:06 | 0:06:11 | |
She is attempting a 1970s-inspired classic punk mohican. | 0:06:11 | 0:06:15 | |
-Hello, Dominika. -Hi. -You OK? | 0:06:17 | 0:06:19 | |
So far, yeah. | 0:06:20 | 0:06:21 | |
Can't wait to shave all the mohican off. | 0:06:21 | 0:06:23 | |
What you going to spend your most time on? | 0:06:23 | 0:06:26 | |
To section the perfect mohican. | 0:06:26 | 0:06:28 | |
-Sectioning? -Yeah. | 0:06:28 | 0:06:29 | |
And then I'll probably cut to shorten, | 0:06:29 | 0:06:32 | |
as I doubt I can stand that up. | 0:06:32 | 0:06:33 | |
You would find it too difficult to leave it that length? | 0:06:33 | 0:06:37 | |
Yeah, I don't want to... | 0:06:37 | 0:06:39 | |
Yeah, it's going to be too long to keep it straight. | 0:06:39 | 0:06:42 | |
OK, carry on. | 0:06:42 | 0:06:43 | |
I've seen Kobi and Dominika are both | 0:06:46 | 0:06:49 | |
doing buzz haircut on the side with a mohawk. | 0:06:49 | 0:06:52 | |
Right now, they are using perfection within their sectioning, | 0:06:52 | 0:06:55 | |
very equal on both sides. | 0:06:55 | 0:06:57 | |
Kobi, his mohican, is looking a little bit too wide | 0:06:57 | 0:07:01 | |
and a little bit short maybe. | 0:07:01 | 0:07:03 | |
Dominika says she's not going to keep the whole length which is | 0:07:03 | 0:07:06 | |
a great shame, that's what makes it so effective. | 0:07:06 | 0:07:09 | |
I'm planning to bring all the sides up smooth, | 0:07:11 | 0:07:14 | |
as smooth as I can get them and then triangular partings coming up. | 0:07:14 | 0:07:19 | |
Mum-of-two Katie has five years' experience in fashion design | 0:07:19 | 0:07:23 | |
and loves to be brave, using bold sculptured styles and shapes. | 0:07:23 | 0:07:28 | |
She will be slicking up the sides and will form | 0:07:28 | 0:07:30 | |
the mohican by moulding round shapes along the centre of the head. | 0:07:30 | 0:07:34 | |
You're going to have to help me out | 0:07:34 | 0:07:36 | |
cos I've never worked with your hair before. | 0:07:36 | 0:07:37 | |
OK. Obviously, it's been washed. | 0:07:37 | 0:07:40 | |
-Stretch it out a little bit? -Yeah. | 0:07:40 | 0:07:42 | |
Hi. This is a different hair type for you. | 0:07:42 | 0:07:46 | |
First time ever I've worked with Afro-Caribbean hair. | 0:07:46 | 0:07:48 | |
-First time ever?! -Yeah. | 0:07:48 | 0:07:50 | |
I thought I'd push the boundaries a little bit on myself. | 0:07:50 | 0:07:52 | |
-I don't want to stay safe. -How do you find the texture? | 0:07:52 | 0:07:55 | |
It's easy to shape. | 0:07:55 | 0:07:57 | |
It's a lot easier than I thought I was going to be, | 0:07:57 | 0:07:59 | |
cos I can work with it, so... | 0:07:59 | 0:08:01 | |
Are you using product on it? | 0:08:01 | 0:08:03 | |
We've used serum and pomade to smooth out. | 0:08:03 | 0:08:07 | |
One side done. | 0:08:10 | 0:08:12 | |
With Katie and also with Marvin, using African hair is a great idea. | 0:08:12 | 0:08:16 | |
It moulds really easily and they don't have to use clippers and shave | 0:08:16 | 0:08:20 | |
the sides and things like that. | 0:08:20 | 0:08:21 | |
They get a great mohican shape with hair. | 0:08:21 | 0:08:24 | |
OK, I'm going to chop the hair | 0:08:24 | 0:08:26 | |
because I'm going to use the clippers with dry hair. | 0:08:26 | 0:08:30 | |
Bye-bye, hair. | 0:08:31 | 0:08:32 | |
The typical mohican is shaved. | 0:08:36 | 0:08:38 | |
That's what is says in the dictionary. | 0:08:38 | 0:08:40 | |
If it's put-up then it's not a mohican. | 0:08:40 | 0:08:43 | |
Hopefully, the judges will see that I've done my research | 0:08:43 | 0:08:45 | |
and I know what I'm doing. | 0:08:45 | 0:08:47 | |
-You ready? -Yeah. | 0:08:50 | 0:08:52 | |
Clipper work is fairly straightforward. | 0:08:55 | 0:08:58 | |
You just have to work upwards, against the growth of the hair. | 0:08:59 | 0:09:03 | |
-I think you look good, no? -I really like it actually. | 0:09:05 | 0:09:08 | |
I wasn't sure if I would, but it's really cool. | 0:09:08 | 0:09:11 | |
Oh, mamma! This is radical. | 0:09:11 | 0:09:14 | |
Yep, definitely. | 0:09:14 | 0:09:16 | |
Did you ask permission first? | 0:09:16 | 0:09:17 | |
-Of course. -This is a big change! -Yeah. | 0:09:17 | 0:09:22 | |
I now have longer hair than you. | 0:09:22 | 0:09:23 | |
-Yeah. -This is insane. What are we going for? | 0:09:23 | 0:09:26 | |
A classic mohawk with the shaved sides, | 0:09:26 | 0:09:28 | |
as that's what a mohawk is. | 0:09:28 | 0:09:30 | |
So brave. I'm very impressed. | 0:09:30 | 0:09:32 | |
It's a different way of life, being a punk. | 0:09:32 | 0:09:34 | |
Have you ever smashed up a hotel room, or...thrown a TV out a window? | 0:09:34 | 0:09:39 | |
-No. -I'm going to leave you to it | 0:09:39 | 0:09:40 | |
because I can't wait to see the finished article here. | 0:09:40 | 0:09:43 | |
Marvin stands up his mohican by putting hair bands around | 0:09:47 | 0:09:50 | |
a series of ponytails and pinning to the head. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:53 | |
It's going OK-ish. | 0:09:58 | 0:10:01 | |
Could have been quicker. | 0:10:01 | 0:10:02 | |
Now that the sides have been shaved, Kobi and Dominika | 0:10:02 | 0:10:06 | |
must create the mohican by cutting the remaining hair. | 0:10:06 | 0:10:09 | |
To do this, the hair is elevated 90 degrees from the head | 0:10:09 | 0:10:13 | |
and all cut to the same length. | 0:10:13 | 0:10:15 | |
-You all right? -Yeah. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:18 | |
30 mins left, everyone. 30 minutes left. | 0:10:19 | 0:10:21 | |
And the award for the person a mohican is most going to suit | 0:10:23 | 0:10:27 | |
goes to this guy. | 0:10:27 | 0:10:29 | |
It already looks awesome. | 0:10:31 | 0:10:33 | |
Glad you think so. | 0:10:33 | 0:10:34 | |
You had long hair before and you were hiding this jaw of steel | 0:10:34 | 0:10:38 | |
you've got going on there. | 0:10:38 | 0:10:40 | |
As you can see, Dominika is very good at getting hair to stand | 0:10:40 | 0:10:43 | |
upright - look no further than her bonce. | 0:10:43 | 0:10:46 | |
It's almost like a plunger for dynamite. | 0:10:46 | 0:10:49 | |
Kaboom. | 0:10:50 | 0:10:52 | |
The key to sculpting a good mohican is using product correctly to | 0:10:56 | 0:11:00 | |
make it stand upright and stay put. | 0:11:00 | 0:11:02 | |
I've put very strong mousse, like loads of it. | 0:11:08 | 0:11:12 | |
To make the hair stand up, | 0:11:12 | 0:11:13 | |
defying gravity 90 degrees, it's good to blow dry before | 0:11:13 | 0:11:17 | |
the hair's wet to put a little gel on the roots, | 0:11:17 | 0:11:20 | |
so you get a kick right away. | 0:11:20 | 0:11:22 | |
I would expect a lot of hairspray, a little backcombing, | 0:11:22 | 0:11:25 | |
hairspray and blow-drying as you go along. | 0:11:25 | 0:11:27 | |
Make sure it's always central, working one side, | 0:11:27 | 0:11:29 | |
working the other, one side, | 0:11:29 | 0:11:31 | |
the other - all the way through to the top. | 0:11:31 | 0:11:33 | |
Dominika applies hairspray to the dry hair | 0:11:40 | 0:11:43 | |
and uses the heat of the straighteners to fuse it together. | 0:11:43 | 0:11:47 | |
What I'm going to do put a little bit of backcomb in it, | 0:11:47 | 0:11:49 | |
a little bit of clay, just give it some height | 0:11:49 | 0:11:51 | |
and just hope it stays there with a lot of hairspray. | 0:11:51 | 0:11:54 | |
I'm trying to decide whether to leave it | 0:11:58 | 0:12:01 | |
as a full-on mohican, | 0:12:01 | 0:12:03 | |
or to do my original plan | 0:12:03 | 0:12:06 | |
and bring it down into shapes... | 0:12:06 | 0:12:09 | |
..like balls. | 0:12:12 | 0:12:14 | |
I quite like that though. | 0:12:14 | 0:12:16 | |
It looks incredible, I love this. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:18 | |
I was thinking, Scotland, mohawk, Loch Ness Monster - | 0:12:18 | 0:12:21 | |
yeah, it could work. | 0:12:21 | 0:12:23 | |
Your mind really does work in a marvellous way. | 0:12:23 | 0:12:25 | |
That's why they call you Marvellous Marvin. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:28 | |
How you feeling about being in the semifinal? | 0:12:28 | 0:12:30 | |
Have you visualised yourself winning this? | 0:12:30 | 0:12:32 | |
Many times and different ways in different outfits. | 0:12:32 | 0:12:34 | |
Trust me, I've done it all! I've done it all. | 0:12:34 | 0:12:37 | |
Who do you think's your greatest threat in the room? | 0:12:37 | 0:12:39 | |
Who's the one person you're secretly having nightmares about? | 0:12:39 | 0:12:43 | |
-The eyes go straight to go straight to Dominika. -Yep. | 0:12:43 | 0:12:46 | |
Cos she's so innovative, and even with her hair day-to-day. | 0:12:46 | 0:12:51 | |
Can you not do that with your hair? | 0:12:51 | 0:12:53 | |
No, Steve, I really couldn't. | 0:12:53 | 0:12:54 | |
A good stylist could, Marvin. | 0:12:54 | 0:12:56 | |
I'd probably make a wig and do it. | 0:12:56 | 0:12:58 | |
With just ten minutes to go, Katie has decided to stick to her | 0:13:04 | 0:13:08 | |
original plan and moulds the hair into round shapes. | 0:13:08 | 0:13:11 | |
I think you've managed to make the mohawk look elegant somehow. | 0:13:11 | 0:13:15 | |
I would put this on my mother. | 0:13:15 | 0:13:18 | |
I'm going to put it out there - | 0:13:18 | 0:13:20 | |
this is 100% a mohican, yes? It is? | 0:13:20 | 0:13:23 | |
-I think so, hair is 90 degrees... -You think so?! | 0:13:23 | 0:13:27 | |
It's from the front of the head to the back of the head. | 0:13:27 | 0:13:29 | |
That was the brief, wasn't it? | 0:13:29 | 0:13:31 | |
Same width all the way down, 90 degrees off the head. | 0:13:31 | 0:13:33 | |
This is a mohawk - a very elegant one at that. | 0:13:33 | 0:13:36 | |
Sorry, a mohican. Americans say mohawk, because they are lazy. | 0:13:36 | 0:13:39 | |
60 seconds. | 0:13:41 | 0:13:42 | |
Time's up, guys. | 0:14:03 | 0:14:05 | |
Please, step away from your punk | 0:14:05 | 0:14:09 | |
and, please, do not smash up your work stations. | 0:14:09 | 0:14:13 | |
Alain and Denise are looking for well-proportioned | 0:14:13 | 0:14:15 | |
and totally central mohicans which stand up at 90 degrees. | 0:14:15 | 0:14:20 | |
The judges are coming. | 0:14:20 | 0:14:21 | |
What's Marvin's handiwork looking like over here? | 0:14:21 | 0:14:24 | |
It's a really good styling variation of the mohican. | 0:14:29 | 0:14:33 | |
Let's see if it's central... | 0:14:33 | 0:14:36 | |
I want to push it a little bit in the middle here. | 0:14:36 | 0:14:38 | |
Just making sure that it's right in the middle, | 0:14:38 | 0:14:40 | |
but it stays in the middle. | 0:14:40 | 0:14:41 | |
So it's got to be solid, from the roots till the end. | 0:14:41 | 0:14:44 | |
It's definitely 90 degrees, all the way round, which we can see. | 0:14:44 | 0:14:48 | |
I absolutely love what you've done with the hairline. | 0:14:48 | 0:14:51 | |
-Thank you. -Did you just use the pomade or the hairspray. | 0:14:51 | 0:14:54 | |
A bit of gel and my towel comb. | 0:14:54 | 0:14:58 | |
No, cos it's lovely, and it's a nice... | 0:14:58 | 0:15:00 | |
When you've got a fine hairline that you maybe couldn't have taken back... | 0:15:00 | 0:15:03 | |
-Yeah. -You've made a nice - almost henna effect. | 0:15:03 | 0:15:06 | |
It's a great variation on the styling, | 0:15:06 | 0:15:09 | |
really think you pulled it off there. | 0:15:09 | 0:15:12 | |
Little bit biased towards the Nessie element there? | 0:15:12 | 0:15:16 | |
Yeah, he won me! | 0:15:16 | 0:15:18 | |
Like being back home. | 0:15:18 | 0:15:19 | |
-Nice work, Marvin. -Thank you. -Very clever. | 0:15:19 | 0:15:22 | |
-Yeah. -Very good. -Let's go see Katie. Nice work. | 0:15:22 | 0:15:25 | |
What's Katie doing? | 0:15:26 | 0:15:27 | |
-Feels a little low. -Mm. -In fact it's a little wider than it's higher. | 0:15:33 | 0:15:37 | |
-What about the central positioning? -Let's see how it suits... | 0:15:37 | 0:15:42 | |
within the middle of it... | 0:15:42 | 0:15:43 | |
Again, as wide as it is, it's kind of more difficult to judge. | 0:15:43 | 0:15:48 | |
It sort of reached the 90 degrees, but it goes a little bit flat here. | 0:15:48 | 0:15:50 | |
-Yeah. -So it needed to go higher. -Yeah. | 0:15:50 | 0:15:52 | |
-The minute we start to lift it... -Yeah. | 0:15:52 | 0:15:55 | |
Even working on your beauti... I mean, it's beautifully done. | 0:15:55 | 0:15:58 | |
-Yeah, I can see it now! -We've actually - look! | 0:15:58 | 0:16:01 | |
-We've reached the criteria. We're at 90 degrees now. -Mm. | 0:16:01 | 0:16:05 | |
Can I get a yea or nay, does this qualify as a mohican? | 0:16:05 | 0:16:08 | |
No, it's not a mohican. It's too wide and not high enough. | 0:16:08 | 0:16:12 | |
You just got your proportions wrong. | 0:16:12 | 0:16:14 | |
To Kobi. | 0:16:14 | 0:16:15 | |
You created a variation of the mohican. | 0:16:21 | 0:16:24 | |
I would say variation because it's a little bit wider. | 0:16:24 | 0:16:27 | |
Now, let's see if it's in the middle. | 0:16:27 | 0:16:29 | |
Need to lift it up to see what's going on, to tell you the truth. | 0:16:29 | 0:16:34 | |
It's even higher a little bit one side than the other. | 0:16:34 | 0:16:37 | |
Not completely even. | 0:16:37 | 0:16:39 | |
Isn't it supposed to be a bit of a messy mohican, though? | 0:16:39 | 0:16:41 | |
That's the idea, isn't it? It's punk, isn't it? | 0:16:41 | 0:16:44 | |
It's anarchy! This woman's head is anarchy. | 0:16:44 | 0:16:46 | |
-It's certainly a modern, very feminine twist on the mohican. -Yeah. | 0:16:46 | 0:16:49 | |
-Which is what you wanted to achieve. -Mm-hm. | 0:16:49 | 0:16:51 | |
You were at 90 degrees all the way round, | 0:16:51 | 0:16:54 | |
but what happened when Alain touched it? It fell. | 0:16:54 | 0:16:57 | |
-Yeah. -So you were not secure in the base. | 0:16:57 | 0:16:59 | |
So we lost your 90 degrees there. | 0:16:59 | 0:17:01 | |
-Can I say one more thing? -Yeah. -Too much hairspray. | 0:17:01 | 0:17:04 | |
-And that's why you've got the wrong type of separation here. -Yeah. | 0:17:04 | 0:17:08 | |
You've just got brittle...and it's just doing this. | 0:17:08 | 0:17:10 | |
It's not flowing softly, because you were just jetting that hairspray. | 0:17:10 | 0:17:14 | |
-A brave effort... -Absolutely. -..and an even braver model. | 0:17:14 | 0:17:16 | |
-Nice one, Kobi. -Yeah. | 0:17:16 | 0:17:18 | |
Dominika. | 0:17:18 | 0:17:19 | |
Wow, it's all finished, and all perfect. | 0:17:25 | 0:17:28 | |
Look - it's completely central. | 0:17:28 | 0:17:31 | |
This is the anarchist. It's even all the way through. | 0:17:31 | 0:17:36 | |
Love the finish of it. | 0:17:36 | 0:17:38 | |
The only thing I would have said is it's a shame - | 0:17:38 | 0:17:40 | |
you had this length, and I don't know how secure or confident | 0:17:40 | 0:17:44 | |
you felt about making it hold all the way through. | 0:17:44 | 0:17:47 | |
A little bigger, the more of a chief he became. | 0:17:47 | 0:17:49 | |
-I like the length, actually. -Yeah, I do too. | 0:17:49 | 0:17:51 | |
I think it's nice and sharp. It's really great. | 0:17:51 | 0:17:53 | |
You've definitely got 90 degrees, | 0:17:53 | 0:17:55 | |
you've really stayed true to the modern history of the mohican. | 0:17:55 | 0:18:00 | |
You two would make quite a funky couple. | 0:18:00 | 0:18:03 | |
-Shall we buy a hat? -Yep. | 0:18:03 | 0:18:04 | |
-Well done, it looks stunning. -Cheers. -Brilliant. -Thanks. | 0:18:04 | 0:18:08 | |
-That was nicer! -Told you. | 0:18:09 | 0:18:11 | |
Thanks for your sterling work, guys. | 0:18:11 | 0:18:13 | |
The sanctuary of the prep room awaits you. Go take a break. | 0:18:13 | 0:18:17 | |
You deserve it. Well done. | 0:18:17 | 0:18:18 | |
(Give him your number! Give him your number.) | 0:18:21 | 0:18:24 | |
-Oh, man! -Oh, man. | 0:18:24 | 0:18:27 | |
Oh, man! | 0:18:27 | 0:18:28 | |
-KOBI: -I knew it wasn't how I wanted it to look. | 0:18:28 | 0:18:31 | |
There was too much hairspray on it. That was not intentional. | 0:18:31 | 0:18:34 | |
-DOMINIKA: -I feel confident, you know? I got really good comments. | 0:18:34 | 0:18:37 | |
Now I want to make little village full of mohawk people. | 0:18:37 | 0:18:41 | |
Next up, it's the blockhead round | 0:18:44 | 0:18:46 | |
and this week the judges want the amateurs to get to grips | 0:18:46 | 0:18:49 | |
with a totally new area of hairdressing - barbering. | 0:18:49 | 0:18:53 | |
This week the judges want you to create your first short hairstyle. | 0:18:55 | 0:19:00 | |
It's the classic short back and sides with the square top | 0:19:00 | 0:19:05 | |
As you can see, it's a square shape. | 0:19:05 | 0:19:07 | |
So we want to see that horizontally and vertically. | 0:19:07 | 0:19:09 | |
The key of barbering technique is the scissor over comb. | 0:19:09 | 0:19:12 | |
Usually worked on the side and the back, | 0:19:12 | 0:19:15 | |
that's where you cut the hair shorter than your fingers. | 0:19:15 | 0:19:18 | |
So once you've done the basic cut, | 0:19:18 | 0:19:20 | |
-you finish it using scissors over comb. -That's right. | 0:19:20 | 0:19:23 | |
Easy. | 0:19:23 | 0:19:24 | |
As usual, you will be ranked on this so do your very best work. | 0:19:24 | 0:19:28 | |
I should mention Kobi will have an advantage, | 0:19:28 | 0:19:30 | |
because he can just look in the mirror. | 0:19:30 | 0:19:31 | |
Yeah! | 0:19:31 | 0:19:33 | |
Extraordinary. | 0:19:33 | 0:19:34 | |
You have one hour and 15 minutes in which to complete this task. | 0:19:34 | 0:19:37 | |
Grab a blockhead and get to it. Good luck. | 0:19:37 | 0:19:40 | |
It looks like that guy who's hair you cut this morning, | 0:19:44 | 0:19:47 | |
Dominika, doesn't it? | 0:19:47 | 0:19:48 | |
Another boyfriend. | 0:19:48 | 0:19:49 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:19:49 | 0:19:51 | |
He's a very attractive man. | 0:19:53 | 0:19:56 | |
Even got a wonky eye! | 0:19:56 | 0:19:57 | |
The short back and sides first became fashionable | 0:19:58 | 0:20:01 | |
when American college students sported it in the 1920s. | 0:20:01 | 0:20:03 | |
I'm not feeling confident at all. | 0:20:03 | 0:20:05 | |
This is nothing I've attempted to do before. | 0:20:06 | 0:20:10 | |
The judges want the amateurs' blockheads | 0:20:10 | 0:20:12 | |
to be cut to the same length as the demonstration model. | 0:20:12 | 0:20:15 | |
Never cut man's hair before, never. | 0:20:15 | 0:20:17 | |
So, this is a first. | 0:20:19 | 0:20:22 | |
Why a men's cut all of a sudden? | 0:20:22 | 0:20:24 | |
-Here we're on semifinal... -Yeah. | 0:20:24 | 0:20:26 | |
Blockhead challenge need a new technique, | 0:20:26 | 0:20:29 | |
a little more difficult, | 0:20:29 | 0:20:30 | |
introducing barbering technique of scissor over comb. | 0:20:30 | 0:20:33 | |
-OK. -Only one blade should be moving, | 0:20:33 | 0:20:36 | |
you apply it along the comb itself | 0:20:36 | 0:20:39 | |
and just one blade should be moving into it. | 0:20:39 | 0:20:43 | |
We could, if we wanted to, | 0:20:43 | 0:20:45 | |
use a set of clippers on a one or two blade, but that's not a craft. | 0:20:45 | 0:20:48 | |
That's easy. | 0:20:48 | 0:20:49 | |
To use scissors over comb for a finishing | 0:20:49 | 0:20:51 | |
is a proper finish on a barbered haircut, | 0:20:51 | 0:20:53 | |
which gives you that lovely velvet feeling, | 0:20:53 | 0:20:55 | |
you can actually feel every hair concertina-ing all the way up. | 0:20:55 | 0:20:58 | |
Oh, yes. Nice. | 0:20:58 | 0:20:59 | |
So, this is like an art form. Any idiot can use the clippers, yes? | 0:20:59 | 0:21:03 | |
-But this is art. -Absolutely. | 0:21:03 | 0:21:05 | |
The semifinal - that's going to definitely define | 0:21:05 | 0:21:08 | |
who can and cannot do it. | 0:21:08 | 0:21:10 | |
So, what are you looking for out there? | 0:21:10 | 0:21:12 | |
So, the important thing with this shape is this square line - | 0:21:12 | 0:21:15 | |
you get this lovely square shape. | 0:21:15 | 0:21:17 | |
It's a great challenge. | 0:21:17 | 0:21:18 | |
The stylists have been given a sectioning map | 0:21:19 | 0:21:22 | |
to guide them through the cut. | 0:21:22 | 0:21:23 | |
I'm literally following the sectioning map... | 0:21:23 | 0:21:26 | |
to the letter. | 0:21:26 | 0:21:28 | |
For beginners attempting the short back and sides, | 0:21:28 | 0:21:30 | |
they must first create a horseshoe shaped section | 0:21:30 | 0:21:33 | |
around the top of the head. | 0:21:33 | 0:21:34 | |
-Concentration, Kobi. -Yes, definitely! | 0:21:34 | 0:21:37 | |
-Now, have you cut this hairstyle before? -Never. | 0:21:37 | 0:21:40 | |
Never. What do you think about the sectioning map? Is that helping you? | 0:21:40 | 0:21:43 | |
Um, I've just literally looked at the first step | 0:21:43 | 0:21:45 | |
-and got that section done. -Uh-huh. | 0:21:45 | 0:21:47 | |
I can see you've got a nice horseshoe step there. | 0:21:47 | 0:21:50 | |
The next step is to remove the length from the hair | 0:21:50 | 0:21:53 | |
below the horseshoe section. | 0:21:53 | 0:21:56 | |
I'm just using my finger as a length guide...to cut. | 0:21:56 | 0:22:00 | |
Not even sure if I'm doing it the right way, but I'm doing it anyway. | 0:22:02 | 0:22:06 | |
Once the length has been taken off the sides, | 0:22:07 | 0:22:10 | |
the stylists should move onto cutting the hair | 0:22:10 | 0:22:12 | |
on the top of the head using a technique called square layering. | 0:22:12 | 0:22:16 | |
Square layering is literally pulling the hair up 90 degrees | 0:22:16 | 0:22:19 | |
very tight and completely straight. | 0:22:19 | 0:22:22 | |
Like a flattopper. | 0:22:22 | 0:22:23 | |
There was a thing called the flattopper. | 0:22:23 | 0:22:25 | |
How are you getting on? | 0:22:29 | 0:22:31 | |
Done the basic shape? | 0:22:31 | 0:22:32 | |
Yeah, I've took all the weight off, I've got me... | 0:22:32 | 0:22:35 | |
I've done me top, lined all that up straight, and everything, | 0:22:35 | 0:22:37 | |
and I've just took the weight off. | 0:22:37 | 0:22:39 | |
I understand. And your timing? You're doing OK? | 0:22:39 | 0:22:41 | |
-I've no idea. -Right. | 0:22:41 | 0:22:43 | |
Right, well, keep on going. | 0:22:43 | 0:22:45 | |
30 minutes remain. | 0:22:45 | 0:22:47 | |
Are you heading in a pink cheek direction? | 0:22:51 | 0:22:55 | |
Yes, very, very close. | 0:22:55 | 0:22:56 | |
-You're starting to get a bit flustered. -Very, very close. | 0:22:56 | 0:22:59 | |
You need to start believing, Kobi. | 0:22:59 | 0:23:01 | |
-All right, I'll leave you to it. -Thank you. | 0:23:01 | 0:23:03 | |
Don't panic, loose. | 0:23:03 | 0:23:05 | |
Think "relaxed." | 0:23:05 | 0:23:06 | |
Once the stylists are happy that all of the hair on the top of the head | 0:23:13 | 0:23:17 | |
has been cut to the same length, | 0:23:17 | 0:23:19 | |
they should then finesse the sides and back. | 0:23:19 | 0:23:21 | |
Once you can't reach between your fingers any more | 0:23:22 | 0:23:25 | |
and it has to be shorter, | 0:23:25 | 0:23:27 | |
you work with the scissors over comb technique. | 0:23:27 | 0:23:29 | |
You just have to work higher, higher, higher and repeat. | 0:23:29 | 0:23:34 | |
Higher, higher... | 0:23:34 | 0:23:35 | |
It's moving very slowly, many, many times with the blade. | 0:23:35 | 0:23:39 | |
I have never, ever, ever done scissors over comb. | 0:23:49 | 0:23:52 | |
I'm trying to get the scissors over comb levelled, | 0:23:54 | 0:23:57 | |
cos you could take chunks out of it by accident. | 0:23:57 | 0:23:59 | |
I feel like it's a little bit like cutting the bush. | 0:24:09 | 0:24:12 | |
I still think that should be shorter. | 0:24:12 | 0:24:15 | |
I will get there. | 0:24:18 | 0:24:20 | |
"That is absolutely awful." | 0:24:20 | 0:24:22 | |
Thanks. | 0:24:22 | 0:24:24 | |
No, not the haircut - I was doing a Simon Cowell impression. | 0:24:24 | 0:24:26 | |
-Looks a little bit like him. -It DOES look like him, a bit. | 0:24:26 | 0:24:29 | |
-Is that what you're going for? -Must be the eyes. | 0:24:29 | 0:24:31 | |
Dominika's got a Simon Cowell thing going on over there. | 0:24:33 | 0:24:37 | |
Do you know who this reminds me of? | 0:24:37 | 0:24:39 | |
-Who? -Deirdre Barlow. | 0:24:39 | 0:24:40 | |
Oh, my gosh! | 0:24:40 | 0:24:41 | |
The final and most difficult step of this haircut | 0:24:46 | 0:24:49 | |
is connecting the short sides with the longer top. | 0:24:49 | 0:24:52 | |
One of the little problem areas with this hair cut | 0:24:52 | 0:24:56 | |
is the joining between the sides to the flat top. | 0:24:56 | 0:25:00 | |
What happens when people lose a haircut | 0:25:01 | 0:25:04 | |
is they start to try and join this in and round it off. | 0:25:04 | 0:25:07 | |
I think I need to round the sides, I'm trying to blend it nicely, | 0:25:08 | 0:25:12 | |
so it's like... | 0:25:12 | 0:25:14 | |
So, the longer layer with the shorter one. | 0:25:15 | 0:25:17 | |
Pretty much guessed how to do the sides. | 0:25:27 | 0:25:29 | |
I don't want to take them too short. | 0:25:29 | 0:25:31 | |
I guess now that it's not the same sort of look. | 0:25:32 | 0:25:36 | |
Ten minutes, guys. Ten minutes left. | 0:25:36 | 0:25:39 | |
It's not as hard as I thought it would be. | 0:25:45 | 0:25:47 | |
So, I'm quite happy with myself. | 0:25:49 | 0:25:52 | |
I feel like it looks close to the model. | 0:25:52 | 0:25:56 | |
It's fine. | 0:25:59 | 0:26:00 | |
It's just too long, which is making those bits too long. | 0:26:00 | 0:26:02 | |
If that was slightly shorter... | 0:26:02 | 0:26:04 | |
the back'd look better. | 0:26:04 | 0:26:06 | |
I haven't got time to go back through it, have I? | 0:26:06 | 0:26:08 | |
-How are you getting on? -That's the thing - | 0:26:08 | 0:26:10 | |
-I don't know where it's gone wrong. -It looks a lot longer. -Yeah. | 0:26:10 | 0:26:13 | |
How thick are your fingers? | 0:26:13 | 0:26:15 | |
Normal. | 0:26:17 | 0:26:18 | |
I don't know! | 0:26:18 | 0:26:20 | |
I just don't know. I... | 0:26:20 | 0:26:22 | |
Two minutes left! | 0:26:23 | 0:26:24 | |
I'm stuck. | 0:26:24 | 0:26:26 | |
Could you flatten it down with a little bit of product, maybe? | 0:26:26 | 0:26:29 | |
-Stick it down. -Yeah. | 0:26:29 | 0:26:30 | |
But then it's only hiding what's there. | 0:26:30 | 0:26:33 | |
Too long! | 0:26:40 | 0:26:42 | |
And that's time. | 0:26:46 | 0:26:48 | |
The blockhead challenge in the semifinals is over. | 0:26:49 | 0:26:53 | |
Step away from the blockheads. Thank you, guys. | 0:26:53 | 0:26:57 | |
The judges are looking for a cut | 0:26:57 | 0:26:58 | |
which is shorter than the width of the fingers, | 0:26:58 | 0:27:01 | |
has a square top, no lumps or bumps and a smooth, velvety finish. | 0:27:01 | 0:27:05 | |
Here come the judges. | 0:27:05 | 0:27:08 | |
Kobi. | 0:27:08 | 0:27:09 | |
We'll check first how square the shape is. | 0:27:13 | 0:27:16 | |
You can see it's bending down. | 0:27:16 | 0:27:18 | |
-OK. -It's gone round. -So the top isn't square, you're saying. | 0:27:18 | 0:27:22 | |
Absolutely not. | 0:27:22 | 0:27:23 | |
-Where it feels a little bit bushy, through here... -Mm. | 0:27:23 | 0:27:25 | |
So, when you were doing your scissors over comb to clean your shape up, | 0:27:25 | 0:27:29 | |
you've not got in there just to give that lovely velvet feeling. | 0:27:29 | 0:27:33 | |
You left it quite long, yeah? | 0:27:33 | 0:27:35 | |
Would you say it's a recurring thing, | 0:27:35 | 0:27:37 | |
where Kobi cuts his initial cut too long? | 0:27:37 | 0:27:42 | |
Yeah, I think he's a little shy. | 0:27:42 | 0:27:44 | |
Overall, this haircut is a little too long. | 0:27:44 | 0:27:46 | |
-Not square enough. -Call it chop anxiety. | 0:27:46 | 0:27:49 | |
Let's go see Marvin. | 0:27:49 | 0:27:50 | |
-WHISTLES: -No chop anxiety down here. | 0:27:56 | 0:27:58 | |
No. | 0:27:58 | 0:28:00 | |
So, it's short back and sides. | 0:28:00 | 0:28:02 | |
SHORT short back and sides! | 0:28:02 | 0:28:04 | |
Short short back and sides! | 0:28:04 | 0:28:06 | |
With a round top! | 0:28:06 | 0:28:07 | |
You've gone quite a bit shorter. | 0:28:07 | 0:28:09 | |
Too much contrast between really short | 0:28:09 | 0:28:11 | |
where you've cut on the sides, and the top. | 0:28:11 | 0:28:13 | |
If you look here, you'll actually see that corner's missing... | 0:28:13 | 0:28:17 | |
from the haircut. So, when you've come up with your scissors over comb, | 0:28:17 | 0:28:21 | |
-you've gone in, like this - the comb's followed the head in. -Yeah. | 0:28:21 | 0:28:24 | |
Instead of feeling a kind of velvet, I'm almost getting Velcro. | 0:28:24 | 0:28:28 | |
-Does that make sense? -Yeah. -So, it's just a wee bit... -I understand. | 0:28:28 | 0:28:31 | |
It's a little bit shorter. | 0:28:31 | 0:28:32 | |
-Once again, not quite the cut we were looking for. -No. | 0:28:32 | 0:28:36 | |
All right. | 0:28:39 | 0:28:40 | |
-The top feels a little long, to tell you the truth. -Yeah. | 0:28:44 | 0:28:47 | |
Shame you haven't got shorter. | 0:28:47 | 0:28:49 | |
Still, the shape is the closest we've seen, right now. | 0:28:49 | 0:28:53 | |
-And the top is flat. -And the top is flat. -Yeah. | 0:28:53 | 0:28:56 | |
Beautiful. | 0:28:56 | 0:28:58 | |
Ooh, velvet! | 0:28:58 | 0:28:59 | |
What does that tell us? | 0:28:59 | 0:29:00 | |
It says that the scissors over comb | 0:29:00 | 0:29:02 | |
have actually finished off very nicely. | 0:29:02 | 0:29:04 | |
-Overall... -Flat top, velvet finish... -Yeah. -..jackpot. | 0:29:04 | 0:29:08 | |
-You must be happy with that. -Yeah. -You seem quite chilled, | 0:29:08 | 0:29:10 | |
-but you're dancing on the inside, aren't you? -I am, yeah. | 0:29:10 | 0:29:13 | |
Yeah! What has Dominika been up to? | 0:29:13 | 0:29:16 | |
Too long. Way too long. | 0:29:24 | 0:29:26 | |
You would have nailed it if you had cut about that length, more or less. | 0:29:26 | 0:29:29 | |
If you were sticking the hair up itself, using some gel or | 0:29:29 | 0:29:33 | |
something, you would see that the shape is round on the top. | 0:29:33 | 0:29:36 | |
Feels good. | 0:29:36 | 0:29:37 | |
Your scissors over comb, it feels velvety. | 0:29:37 | 0:29:39 | |
If it feels lovely, does that mean it's a good cut, | 0:29:39 | 0:29:41 | |
or have you just got a velvet fetish? | 0:29:41 | 0:29:43 | |
No, I've not got a velvet fetish. | 0:29:43 | 0:29:45 | |
Her scissors over comb this way has been - as you can see - | 0:29:45 | 0:29:48 | |
look, nice and even. | 0:29:48 | 0:29:49 | |
But then what's happened is she's followed the head shape | 0:29:49 | 0:29:52 | |
-and it's gone too round. -Lesson learned. | 0:29:52 | 0:29:54 | |
-Thank you, Dominika. -Thank you. | 0:29:54 | 0:29:56 | |
You all know what happens now, | 0:29:58 | 0:30:00 | |
the judges will rank you in the blockhead challenge. | 0:30:00 | 0:30:03 | |
I recommend you seek refuge in the prep room. | 0:30:03 | 0:30:05 | |
You might want to put ice on your burning ears. | 0:30:05 | 0:30:08 | |
Take a 5. | 0:30:08 | 0:30:09 | |
Thanks, guys. Great work. | 0:30:09 | 0:30:11 | |
-KOBI: -This is an important round, | 0:30:19 | 0:30:20 | |
it's the semifinal and this will all depend on what model I get | 0:30:20 | 0:30:24 | |
for tomorrow, so it could ruin my chances for tomorrow. | 0:30:24 | 0:30:29 | |
Let's face it, it's too long and too round. | 0:30:29 | 0:30:34 | |
-Little bit looking like the hulk from the back. -Yeah. | 0:30:34 | 0:30:37 | |
-MARVIN: -The comment of the hair being like Velcro - I suppose it was true, | 0:30:37 | 0:30:41 | |
but for it being my first time, I think I done pretty good. | 0:30:41 | 0:30:46 | |
I think he made a mistake, | 0:30:46 | 0:30:47 | |
-and he had to cut it shorter and shorter and shorter. -Yeah. | 0:30:47 | 0:30:49 | |
Eventually rounded it off too much. | 0:30:49 | 0:30:52 | |
Hopefully, if I've done well on this one | 0:30:52 | 0:30:54 | |
it's kind of evened me up a little bit. | 0:30:54 | 0:30:55 | |
And I just have to smash it tomorrow. | 0:30:55 | 0:30:57 | |
Just feels a little long, that's the only problem. | 0:30:57 | 0:31:00 | |
Wish she would have cut it, like, an inch shorter. | 0:31:00 | 0:31:03 | |
If I come fourth I'm going to be very angry with myself. | 0:31:03 | 0:31:07 | |
-Hey, guys. -Hi! | 0:31:07 | 0:31:10 | |
The judges have made four tough decisions | 0:31:10 | 0:31:15 | |
in the blockhead round, and they are as follows. | 0:31:15 | 0:31:19 | |
In fourth - slash last - place this week is... | 0:31:20 | 0:31:26 | |
..Kobi. | 0:31:31 | 0:31:32 | |
Bronze this week... | 0:31:33 | 0:31:34 | |
..that's going to be... | 0:31:36 | 0:31:37 | |
..Marvin. | 0:31:39 | 0:31:41 | |
The person who's in second place this week | 0:31:41 | 0:31:43 | |
in the blockhead challenge is... | 0:31:43 | 0:31:45 | |
..Dominika. | 0:31:46 | 0:31:48 | |
Which means Katie is first in the blockhead challenge. | 0:31:49 | 0:31:52 | |
Congratulations! | 0:31:52 | 0:31:54 | |
Thanks. | 0:31:54 | 0:31:55 | |
-Happy with that? -Yeah. -You've got to be. | 0:31:55 | 0:31:57 | |
Let's repair to the board, shall we? Join me, guys. | 0:31:57 | 0:32:00 | |
All right. Here's the board. | 0:32:00 | 0:32:03 | |
Although all of the hair provided by the judges is long, | 0:32:03 | 0:32:07 | |
the length of the layers differ, textures vary | 0:32:07 | 0:32:09 | |
and some are colour treated. | 0:32:09 | 0:32:11 | |
I can reveal at this point, | 0:32:11 | 0:32:13 | |
the theme of the freestyle challenge this week is... | 0:32:13 | 0:32:16 | |
..brides. | 0:32:17 | 0:32:19 | |
Katie, type A, B, C or D. | 0:32:19 | 0:32:22 | |
What's doing it for you, keeping in mind that brides is the theme? | 0:32:22 | 0:32:26 | |
-We've been spoilt this week. -Mm. -All right. Er... | 0:32:26 | 0:32:30 | |
-I'll just go with that one. -Going with blondie. -Yeah. | 0:32:30 | 0:32:33 | |
OK. | 0:32:33 | 0:32:34 | |
Long, wavy blonde hair. | 0:32:36 | 0:32:39 | |
Which is good. It will work. | 0:32:39 | 0:32:41 | |
That's the redheaded lady, yes? | 0:32:43 | 0:32:45 | |
SHE SQUEALS | 0:32:47 | 0:32:49 | |
Very interesting, really looking forward to it. | 0:32:49 | 0:32:51 | |
-She's all yours. -Thank you. -Have a good night. See you tomorrow. | 0:32:53 | 0:32:55 | |
She has long, light brown hair, so, yeah, I'm very happy with my choice. | 0:32:58 | 0:33:02 | |
And then there was one. | 0:33:02 | 0:33:04 | |
How are you feeling about type A? | 0:33:04 | 0:33:07 | |
-Are you OK? -Going to have to be. | 0:33:07 | 0:33:10 | |
-Cool. -See you tomorrow. -Bye! | 0:33:10 | 0:33:13 | |
I did have my eye on Dominika's choice | 0:33:13 | 0:33:17 | |
of the coppery coloured natural hair, | 0:33:17 | 0:33:20 | |
so I am a bit worried about it. | 0:33:20 | 0:33:22 | |
It's quite heavy, but it's long, still, | 0:33:22 | 0:33:24 | |
so hopefully I can still do what I planned. | 0:33:24 | 0:33:28 | |
Well, it's the big one, it's the freestyle round, | 0:33:37 | 0:33:39 | |
and the theme is Brides. | 0:33:39 | 0:33:42 | |
At the end of today, | 0:33:42 | 0:33:43 | |
three people will walk down the aisle to the final | 0:33:43 | 0:33:46 | |
and one will be going home. | 0:33:46 | 0:33:48 | |
It's not going to be pretty. | 0:33:48 | 0:33:50 | |
Who, yesterday, excelled, who is teetering on the edge? | 0:33:50 | 0:33:54 | |
Let's face it, Dominika is standing out of the rest. | 0:33:54 | 0:33:57 | |
She's killing it. | 0:33:57 | 0:33:58 | |
I would say that Dominika's really strong to be in the final. | 0:33:58 | 0:34:01 | |
-There's three that are in a weak position... -Katie, Kobi, Marvin. | 0:34:01 | 0:34:04 | |
-Absolutely. -They've got to really deliver today. | 0:34:04 | 0:34:06 | |
Marvin's never been on the top of this challenge. | 0:34:06 | 0:34:10 | |
-Never won a freestyle round. -So, he's really got to make it. | 0:34:10 | 0:34:13 | |
Kobi, let's face it, didn't do too well on the first two sessions, | 0:34:13 | 0:34:17 | |
so he's really got to pick up. | 0:34:17 | 0:34:19 | |
And Katie, well, she always has great ideas, | 0:34:19 | 0:34:22 | |
but sometimes it's not very well executed. | 0:34:22 | 0:34:25 | |
What do you think, Denise? | 0:34:25 | 0:34:26 | |
I feel nervous for them all, actually. | 0:34:26 | 0:34:29 | |
Good morning. How are you doing? | 0:34:29 | 0:34:30 | |
OK... | 0:34:30 | 0:34:32 | |
I trust you all slept well, because today is the big one. | 0:34:32 | 0:34:36 | |
As you know, the theme of the freestyle challenge is brides, | 0:34:38 | 0:34:42 | |
but the judges don't want to see any old brides. | 0:34:42 | 0:34:45 | |
We want to see immaculate, beautiful, secure hair. | 0:34:45 | 0:34:49 | |
Don't forget - any bride, it's the most important day in their life. | 0:34:49 | 0:34:53 | |
We want to be blown away. This is your last chance. | 0:34:53 | 0:34:57 | |
Thank you, judges. | 0:34:57 | 0:34:58 | |
Great job terrifying our contestants. | 0:34:58 | 0:35:00 | |
You need to throw everything into this freestyle challenge. | 0:35:00 | 0:35:04 | |
Two and a half hours, three places in the grand final. | 0:35:04 | 0:35:07 | |
This is it, people. Time starts now. Off you go. | 0:35:07 | 0:35:10 | |
Good luck. | 0:35:10 | 0:35:11 | |
-How are you? -I'm well, thank you. How are you? | 0:35:14 | 0:35:17 | |
OK. | 0:35:17 | 0:35:18 | |
Right, I'm just going to blast your hair dry for now. | 0:35:20 | 0:35:23 | |
Just going to ask you to put your head in between your legs. | 0:35:23 | 0:35:26 | |
-Upside down. -OK. | 0:35:26 | 0:35:27 | |
The stylists can use anything available in the prep room | 0:35:29 | 0:35:33 | |
to achieve the look they're going for, | 0:35:33 | 0:35:35 | |
and this week the judges have also provided | 0:35:35 | 0:35:38 | |
a selection of bridal accessories. | 0:35:38 | 0:35:40 | |
I felt like I was going to pass out in the other room. | 0:35:40 | 0:35:43 | |
I can't take this pressure no more! | 0:35:43 | 0:35:46 | |
What are they going to have to do today to set your world aflame? | 0:35:46 | 0:35:51 | |
This is my world - braids. I love them. | 0:35:51 | 0:35:53 | |
We want stunning hair. | 0:35:53 | 0:35:54 | |
And also, the really important thing about a bride | 0:35:54 | 0:35:57 | |
is what happens at the back, | 0:35:57 | 0:35:58 | |
because that's where, you know, everyone looks - | 0:35:58 | 0:36:01 | |
at the back of a bride as she walks up the aisle. | 0:36:01 | 0:36:03 | |
Now, wait a second - you're talking about the Dynasty wedding. | 0:36:03 | 0:36:07 | |
-I want to see freaky stuff. -You'll see freaky stuff, too. | 0:36:07 | 0:36:10 | |
But beautifully done. | 0:36:10 | 0:36:11 | |
What about yourself, Alain? | 0:36:11 | 0:36:13 | |
Yeah, I really believe that if you have inventive ideas, | 0:36:13 | 0:36:16 | |
even pushing it, you know, being a little brave | 0:36:16 | 0:36:19 | |
into the normality of what you can do, making a theme out of it - | 0:36:19 | 0:36:23 | |
but eventually, it's how to make it cool | 0:36:23 | 0:36:25 | |
-and how to make it beautiful. -Mm. | 0:36:25 | 0:36:27 | |
So, what is the style, then? | 0:36:32 | 0:36:34 | |
The style I'm going for is my take | 0:36:34 | 0:36:36 | |
on a classic Victorianesque hairstyle. | 0:36:36 | 0:36:38 | |
It's going to have quite a big quiff, quite textured. | 0:36:38 | 0:36:42 | |
I'm going to make some roses out of hair extensions as well. | 0:36:42 | 0:36:45 | |
-That sounds exciting. -Yes. | 0:36:45 | 0:36:47 | |
-You're curling right now. -Yes. | 0:36:47 | 0:36:48 | |
I want to make sure that the curls are all evenly the same tightness. | 0:36:48 | 0:36:52 | |
-Uh-huh. -And then, hopefully, they will keep the hold. | 0:36:52 | 0:36:56 | |
Kobi learned in the last few weeks that his curls have dropped, | 0:36:56 | 0:37:00 | |
so this time he's going to make them really tight. | 0:37:00 | 0:37:02 | |
The only thing that concerns me a little bit, that hairline's very low. | 0:37:02 | 0:37:06 | |
When you're doing hair for a bride, | 0:37:06 | 0:37:08 | |
you've really got to think about their face shape, | 0:37:08 | 0:37:11 | |
their hairline, everything, because it's hair, but it's beauty as well. | 0:37:11 | 0:37:15 | |
I feel he should have done a little bit more work | 0:37:15 | 0:37:17 | |
on that hairline immediately, | 0:37:17 | 0:37:20 | |
and really thought that out before he started going in with his curls. | 0:37:20 | 0:37:24 | |
Semifinal. What are you going to do? | 0:37:24 | 0:37:26 | |
I'm going to do a spin on a classic wedding hairstyle. | 0:37:26 | 0:37:32 | |
-It being half up, half down. -Half up, half down. | 0:37:32 | 0:37:34 | |
I'm just going to accentuate everything. | 0:37:34 | 0:37:37 | |
I'm going to make my bun resemble, like a chain, | 0:37:37 | 0:37:39 | |
kind of similar to the chain I have on. | 0:37:39 | 0:37:42 | |
-Wow. -And I'm going to extend the back, like super long. -Right. | 0:37:42 | 0:37:47 | |
What kind of accessories do you have in mind? | 0:37:47 | 0:37:49 | |
-I'm going to use some net curtain for a veil... -Sounds great. | 0:37:49 | 0:37:53 | |
-This is a beautiful colour here, isn't it? -Oh, I love it! | 0:37:53 | 0:37:55 | |
Absolutely stunning. And what do you call this colour? | 0:37:55 | 0:37:58 | |
Um... Just ginger, I think! | 0:37:58 | 0:38:00 | |
-Really? -Yeah! Don't shy away from it. | 0:38:00 | 0:38:02 | |
-It's called Titian. -Oh! -That's its real colour. | 0:38:02 | 0:38:04 | |
So, what's the style? | 0:38:04 | 0:38:06 | |
The plan is to have on the front victory rolls | 0:38:06 | 0:38:09 | |
which are going to go in the shape of hearts, | 0:38:09 | 0:38:12 | |
and then go through nice, big waves to the sides, | 0:38:12 | 0:38:16 | |
and I will put a skull, as well. | 0:38:16 | 0:38:19 | |
-A skull? -Yeah. -So she's a real Goth. | 0:38:19 | 0:38:21 | |
She's Goth, and it's going to be "till the death do us part." | 0:38:21 | 0:38:25 | |
-Till the death do us part! -Just a gentle remainder, you know?! | 0:38:25 | 0:38:28 | |
Remember. | 0:38:28 | 0:38:29 | |
So, tell us, what's the plan? | 0:38:34 | 0:38:36 | |
-I am trying to create a birdcage. -Wow! | 0:38:36 | 0:38:40 | |
I'm going for catwalk type of couture wedding. | 0:38:40 | 0:38:43 | |
Have you everything ready, or you got to build everything? | 0:38:43 | 0:38:45 | |
-Well, I've got to build the cage. -Wow! | 0:38:45 | 0:38:47 | |
-Good fun. -Yeah. -I've got to be quick. | 0:38:47 | 0:38:49 | |
-This is your forte, you like building things. -Yeah, I do. | 0:38:49 | 0:38:51 | |
In fact, I have seen this technique before... | 0:38:51 | 0:38:55 | |
You're braiding it to... | 0:38:55 | 0:38:56 | |
It's just to hold the structure and it gives me a base to pin into. | 0:38:56 | 0:39:00 | |
Right. | 0:39:00 | 0:39:01 | |
-You're confident? -I'm a bit worried about me timing. | 0:39:01 | 0:39:04 | |
I am going to be running round a little bit. | 0:39:04 | 0:39:06 | |
Really looking forward to see what you come up with. | 0:39:06 | 0:39:08 | |
Alain and Denise have allowed plaits and braids in this challenge... | 0:39:09 | 0:39:13 | |
I'm literally going to leave you for about an hour now. | 0:39:13 | 0:39:15 | |
Back in a minute! | 0:39:15 | 0:39:17 | |
..but have asked that they are not on show in the finished hairstyle. | 0:39:17 | 0:39:21 | |
I've just made a doughnut bun real quick, | 0:39:22 | 0:39:25 | |
just to go on top of her head. | 0:39:25 | 0:39:27 | |
I'm just taking the hair small section by small section. | 0:39:28 | 0:39:33 | |
Adding a bit of pomade just to smooth out the ends. | 0:39:33 | 0:39:36 | |
And then I'm twisting up the hair... | 0:39:36 | 0:39:40 | |
..and pinning it. | 0:39:44 | 0:39:45 | |
Katie is using a canvas wigmaker's block to shape the wire frame | 0:39:50 | 0:39:55 | |
for her couture bridal design. | 0:39:55 | 0:39:57 | |
I am trying to make a birdcage. | 0:39:57 | 0:40:01 | |
Very awkwardly. | 0:40:03 | 0:40:04 | |
I'm hoping that all stays together now. | 0:40:06 | 0:40:08 | |
Dominika wants to incorporate synthetic hair extensions | 0:40:19 | 0:40:22 | |
into her "till death us do part" hairstyle. | 0:40:22 | 0:40:25 | |
I'm doing clip-in extension. | 0:40:25 | 0:40:27 | |
So, normally we should stitch them nicely, | 0:40:27 | 0:40:30 | |
but obviously we can't afford that luxury. | 0:40:30 | 0:40:32 | |
Just glue gun. | 0:40:34 | 0:40:35 | |
-Marvin. -Hi, Steve. | 0:40:42 | 0:40:44 | |
So not only are we trying to secure a place for you in the grand final, | 0:40:44 | 0:40:47 | |
we're trying to secure your first win in the freestyle round. | 0:40:47 | 0:40:51 | |
-Yeah. -I can see a lot of this spongy thing here. | 0:40:51 | 0:40:53 | |
-Are you going to cover that? -Yeah. | 0:40:53 | 0:40:55 | |
Yeah, I'm going to pull it out and cover it up, and disguise it all. | 0:40:55 | 0:40:59 | |
-It resembles like a chain, like jewellery, kind of. -Ooh, nice. | 0:40:59 | 0:41:03 | |
-And then... -A hairy chain. | 0:41:03 | 0:41:05 | |
What?! That's what you just said! | 0:41:06 | 0:41:09 | |
OK, let the fun begin! | 0:41:14 | 0:41:16 | |
Dominika is backcombing the hair to give it more texture | 0:41:18 | 0:41:21 | |
and make it easier to roll into shape. | 0:41:21 | 0:41:24 | |
I did the victory rolls, which I hope looks like a little heart. | 0:41:35 | 0:41:38 | |
I might stick, like, tiny roses inside. I don't know. | 0:41:40 | 0:41:43 | |
Are you as worried about this hairdo as your model looks? | 0:41:43 | 0:41:47 | |
She's like, "What is going on with my hair? What's happening?" | 0:41:48 | 0:41:52 | |
I need to finish making the rest of my - almost, like, flowers... | 0:41:52 | 0:41:56 | |
Black flowers, cool. | 0:41:56 | 0:41:58 | |
-That's my sort of accessory. -You've got some black on your chops, too. | 0:41:58 | 0:42:01 | |
You had a tough day, yesterday. Is that playing on your mind? | 0:42:01 | 0:42:05 | |
Yeah, it is. An awful lot. | 0:42:05 | 0:42:07 | |
Um... | 0:42:07 | 0:42:08 | |
It's just such a knock-back from last week. | 0:42:10 | 0:42:11 | |
-So it's sort of like... -Yeah, that's the game, isn't it? | 0:42:11 | 0:42:14 | |
Swings and roundabouts. | 0:42:14 | 0:42:15 | |
One minute you're up there, the next minute you're... | 0:42:15 | 0:42:18 | |
-you're down here. -Down here. | 0:42:18 | 0:42:20 | |
-I'm sure you're going to slam it, book a place in the final. -Cool. | 0:42:20 | 0:42:23 | |
Didn't think this part through. | 0:42:23 | 0:42:25 | |
Oh, I WILL get it off. | 0:42:26 | 0:42:28 | |
Did no-one see this coming? | 0:42:28 | 0:42:30 | |
Yay. | 0:42:30 | 0:42:32 | |
I was about to send out a search party - | 0:42:33 | 0:42:35 | |
you're hiding in the prep room again. | 0:42:35 | 0:42:37 | |
Your model's been sitting on her own for like half an hour. | 0:42:37 | 0:42:39 | |
You've only got about one hour left. | 0:42:39 | 0:42:42 | |
That's just great, yeah(!) | 0:42:42 | 0:42:45 | |
-Is that going to be enough? -I don't know. | 0:42:45 | 0:42:47 | |
Got a feeling I'm not going to get it finished. | 0:42:51 | 0:42:53 | |
-KOBI: -I've now moved on to actually create my style. | 0:42:53 | 0:42:59 | |
Um... | 0:42:59 | 0:43:00 | |
Just going to start by brushing out my curls. | 0:43:00 | 0:43:03 | |
I was under pressure to make sure that my curls come out right. | 0:43:03 | 0:43:07 | |
They have, I'm really, really pleased with them. | 0:43:07 | 0:43:09 | |
I'm basically attaching the flowers by placing them in | 0:43:09 | 0:43:12 | |
and then wrapping the own model's hair around it, | 0:43:12 | 0:43:15 | |
to create the outer petals. | 0:43:15 | 0:43:17 | |
And it's just going to have a pearl in the centre. | 0:43:17 | 0:43:20 | |
It shouldn't look like fake hair made into roses. | 0:43:20 | 0:43:24 | |
It's got to blend into the hairstyle. | 0:43:24 | 0:43:26 | |
Seeing bits of green hair in there. | 0:43:31 | 0:43:34 | |
The green looks amazing in the red, there, it's incredible. | 0:43:34 | 0:43:37 | |
-But what are you going for? -I'm going to put some skull in her hair. | 0:43:37 | 0:43:40 | |
You're going to put skulls in her hair? | 0:43:40 | 0:43:43 | |
-GASPS: -That is crazy! | 0:43:43 | 0:43:45 | |
You're quite a scary lady. | 0:43:45 | 0:43:48 | |
And I'm proud of it! | 0:43:48 | 0:43:49 | |
I can tell. | 0:43:49 | 0:43:51 | |
I love it. | 0:43:51 | 0:43:52 | |
I'm making long extensions out of 100% human hair. | 0:43:54 | 0:43:58 | |
I'm going to blend it with the back of her hair, | 0:43:58 | 0:44:01 | |
just make it look a lot longer. | 0:44:01 | 0:44:03 | |
I might add a few lighter colours in it | 0:44:03 | 0:44:06 | |
just to make it look a bit more natural. | 0:44:06 | 0:44:09 | |
Marvin glues the hair extensions onto a long piece of netting. | 0:44:13 | 0:44:17 | |
I've never actually done it this way before. | 0:44:17 | 0:44:19 | |
He attaches the long extensions to his model's head | 0:44:24 | 0:44:27 | |
by sewing them into a small braid using a curved weave needle. | 0:44:27 | 0:44:32 | |
Unlike synthetic extensions, | 0:44:33 | 0:44:35 | |
real hair extensions are easier to heat and curl. | 0:44:35 | 0:44:38 | |
Dominika is featuring hair nets as part of her design. | 0:44:40 | 0:44:45 | |
So, you've backcombed the hair - quite fluffy. | 0:44:45 | 0:44:49 | |
It looks, basically, a mess, you know? | 0:44:49 | 0:44:51 | |
And then you get the hairnet and you put the hair in. | 0:44:51 | 0:44:56 | |
Secure it, like, maybe a couple of places, so the net doesn't come off... | 0:44:57 | 0:45:01 | |
..with the grips, and then you just stretch it | 0:45:02 | 0:45:05 | |
and you know, you mould the shape. | 0:45:05 | 0:45:07 | |
-You've got half an hour left, guys. -Eek! | 0:45:07 | 0:45:10 | |
With the challenge almost over, | 0:45:11 | 0:45:13 | |
Katie is only just returning to her model. | 0:45:13 | 0:45:16 | |
I need these to heat up. | 0:45:25 | 0:45:26 | |
I'm over this. I need to sort this out. | 0:45:28 | 0:45:32 | |
Oh, man, you can still see the doughnut bun | 0:45:32 | 0:45:34 | |
and it's getting on my nerves. | 0:45:34 | 0:45:36 | |
I know, I'm totally just messing everything up. | 0:45:38 | 0:45:41 | |
I'm just running out of time. | 0:45:43 | 0:45:44 | |
So Marvin is feeling the pressure. | 0:45:47 | 0:45:49 | |
He has struggled with finish in the past. | 0:45:49 | 0:45:51 | |
This is his last chance, really, | 0:45:51 | 0:45:53 | |
to prove that he can deliver what we need in the immaculate finish. | 0:45:53 | 0:45:58 | |
Five minutes. | 0:45:58 | 0:46:00 | |
Five minutes, everyone. | 0:46:00 | 0:46:02 | |
-Looks fab to me. -Thank you. | 0:46:02 | 0:46:05 | |
How does it look to you? | 0:46:05 | 0:46:07 | |
I like it, yeah. | 0:46:07 | 0:46:09 | |
But I don't know if it screams bridal as much as I thought it would have. | 0:46:09 | 0:46:14 | |
Hmm. What are we lacking in the bridal region? | 0:46:14 | 0:46:16 | |
-Veil. How long have we got? -Five minutes. | 0:46:18 | 0:46:21 | |
-Well, about four and a half at this point. -I have veil fabric. | 0:46:21 | 0:46:24 | |
-It's just going to be too much. -It's too much. | 0:46:28 | 0:46:32 | |
You're not doing your happy face. What's going on? | 0:46:32 | 0:46:34 | |
-I'm just not in the mood right now. -What's wrong? | 0:46:34 | 0:46:38 | |
This looks pretty beautiful to me. | 0:46:38 | 0:46:39 | |
-Are you happy? -I'm very happy. -Sold? | 0:46:39 | 0:46:41 | |
If I was going to get married, I would have a hairstyle like this. | 0:46:41 | 0:46:45 | |
I just feel like I'm going to go home. | 0:46:45 | 0:46:48 | |
Everything is gone. One second. | 0:46:53 | 0:46:55 | |
-Sorry, Steve, I'm just... -It's fine. | 0:47:03 | 0:47:05 | |
Listen, there's a huge amount of pressure out there, | 0:47:05 | 0:47:08 | |
of course, and I get it. | 0:47:08 | 0:47:09 | |
You'll be all right, man. | 0:47:09 | 0:47:11 | |
This looks way tacky as well, it just look stupid. | 0:47:14 | 0:47:17 | |
It just looks so dumb. | 0:47:19 | 0:47:20 | |
Thank you, guys. | 0:47:39 | 0:47:41 | |
Your time's up. Step away from the bride. | 0:47:41 | 0:47:44 | |
'Alain and Denise will be looking for immaculately finished designs | 0:47:45 | 0:47:49 | |
'that last a whole day.' | 0:47:49 | 0:47:51 | |
Here come the judges. | 0:47:51 | 0:47:52 | |
Let's take a look at Dominika's work. | 0:47:54 | 0:47:56 | |
-Does it say bride? -I believe so. | 0:48:10 | 0:48:12 | |
Look, it's a beautiful shape. | 0:48:12 | 0:48:15 | |
360, as we saw it walking, it looked really consistent. | 0:48:15 | 0:48:20 | |
The proportions are quite beautiful | 0:48:20 | 0:48:22 | |
and I do like the effect that you've created by using the nets | 0:48:22 | 0:48:26 | |
and you have a different kind of texture. | 0:48:26 | 0:48:28 | |
It's immaculate, this is beautiful, the pinwork's beautiful, it's lovely. | 0:48:28 | 0:48:33 | |
Every angle... Just one little criticism. | 0:48:33 | 0:48:35 | |
The blue here and here, which is very pretty in one respect close up, | 0:48:35 | 0:48:39 | |
but from a distance I thought you'd left the rollers in. | 0:48:39 | 0:48:42 | |
-Oh. -Yeah. Just very slightly. | 0:48:42 | 0:48:44 | |
Is this meant to be a heart here? That's amazing. I just noticed that. | 0:48:44 | 0:48:48 | |
-It's almost perfect. Beautiful, isn't it? -Incredible, yeah. | 0:48:48 | 0:48:50 | |
That's beautifully done. | 0:48:50 | 0:48:52 | |
It's superb. I love it, actually. It's definitely bold | 0:48:52 | 0:48:56 | |
and avant-garde and exciting. | 0:48:56 | 0:48:58 | |
Bold, avant-garde, exciting. That's our Dominika for you. | 0:48:58 | 0:49:02 | |
-Yeah. -Exactly. -Amazing, thank you. | 0:49:02 | 0:49:04 | |
This is Kobi's bride. | 0:49:06 | 0:49:07 | |
Does it say bridal? | 0:49:23 | 0:49:26 | |
I think so. | 0:49:26 | 0:49:27 | |
It's fairly bold because you brought the height | 0:49:27 | 0:49:31 | |
and the texture within it. | 0:49:31 | 0:49:33 | |
These two sides which stick out, again it would have been prettier | 0:49:33 | 0:49:37 | |
to make them a little bit closer to the head. | 0:49:37 | 0:49:40 | |
Do you mean how well the hairdo suits the shape of the model's face? | 0:49:40 | 0:49:45 | |
Eventually, yes. | 0:49:45 | 0:49:46 | |
Proportions, I agree with Alain. | 0:49:46 | 0:49:49 | |
You didn't look enough at your bride in the mirror. | 0:49:49 | 0:49:52 | |
You really didn't, you stayed focused here so much | 0:49:52 | 0:49:56 | |
and you didn't actually look here because I'd like to just do something | 0:49:56 | 0:49:59 | |
because the minute you do that, she's beautiful and she's a bride. | 0:49:59 | 0:50:04 | |
I think that there was an element of | 0:50:04 | 0:50:07 | |
-getting to understand this type of hairline. -Yeah. | 0:50:07 | 0:50:10 | |
You used the model's own hair, now, for the roses here. | 0:50:10 | 0:50:12 | |
-Some are extensions and some are the model. -Some are extensions? | 0:50:12 | 0:50:16 | |
-So he fooled you, Denise. -Fabulous. That's superb. -Thank you. | 0:50:16 | 0:50:19 | |
-And even on this side, you've done it so well. -Look how close Denise is. | 0:50:19 | 0:50:22 | |
She's touching it and she can't tell! | 0:50:22 | 0:50:24 | |
One thing I just see that you had the veil, the tulle, | 0:50:24 | 0:50:27 | |
-and you didn't use it. -No. | 0:50:27 | 0:50:29 | |
Very easily you can create beautiful little type of flowers | 0:50:29 | 0:50:33 | |
and you place it in the right area, even on the side. | 0:50:33 | 0:50:36 | |
-It's a good effect, you understand what we mean. -Yeah. -OK. | 0:50:36 | 0:50:39 | |
What's Katie been up to? | 0:50:39 | 0:50:41 | |
This is what I call bold and brave. | 0:51:04 | 0:51:07 | |
You really took it on. | 0:51:07 | 0:51:08 | |
I really like the incorporation of the hair into it. | 0:51:08 | 0:51:11 | |
It looks really good 360 degrees. | 0:51:11 | 0:51:14 | |
Love the veil, love the accessories. | 0:51:14 | 0:51:17 | |
-I think it's pretty close, isn't it? -It's very, very secure. | 0:51:17 | 0:51:21 | |
It's beautifully made. If she walked up an aisle, you can see through it. | 0:51:21 | 0:51:25 | |
But while I'm looking through it, | 0:51:25 | 0:51:27 | |
that does look like a lot of plaiting | 0:51:27 | 0:51:30 | |
and we did say no plaiting. | 0:51:30 | 0:51:32 | |
I love how this style says, | 0:51:32 | 0:51:34 | |
"When you marry me, you'll be in a cage forever." | 0:51:34 | 0:51:37 | |
What's Marvin been up to? | 0:51:39 | 0:51:41 | |
Solid as a flipping rock. | 0:51:55 | 0:51:57 | |
Does it say bridal, though? That's the question. | 0:51:58 | 0:52:01 | |
I believe so. You've got your chain effect pretty well, | 0:52:01 | 0:52:06 | |
covered it well enough but you can still see it. | 0:52:06 | 0:52:08 | |
Would have been easy enough to put just a little layer of hair | 0:52:08 | 0:52:12 | |
on the top of the bun and then work from that. | 0:52:12 | 0:52:15 | |
Your pinwork's very neat and this is totally in proportion. | 0:52:15 | 0:52:19 | |
She looks gorgeous. | 0:52:19 | 0:52:20 | |
The extensions - it's beautiful, the way that's the model's real hair. | 0:52:20 | 0:52:25 | |
I didn't even know if these were extensions. That's incredible. | 0:52:25 | 0:52:28 | |
Brilliant extensions. They're lovely and tight and I can't pull them out. | 0:52:28 | 0:52:31 | |
-My only disappointing area is this seam at the back. -Yeah. | 0:52:31 | 0:52:35 | |
-I'm a little bit disappointed with this. -That line? | 0:52:35 | 0:52:39 | |
-I think it looks quite nice. What's wrong with that? -No. | 0:52:39 | 0:52:42 | |
If you're in the back of a church looking up, | 0:52:42 | 0:52:44 | |
you'll just see that line. | 0:52:44 | 0:52:45 | |
Even if we'd done something to disguise, or you'd used that veil. | 0:52:45 | 0:52:49 | |
Thank you. | 0:52:49 | 0:52:50 | |
Thank you so much, guys. Once again, very, very good work. | 0:52:53 | 0:52:57 | |
The judges will now decide on a winner of the freestyle challenge. | 0:52:57 | 0:53:02 | |
And then they will attempt mission impossible | 0:53:02 | 0:53:05 | |
and that's choosing the person who will be leaving us today. | 0:53:05 | 0:53:08 | |
Go take a well-deserved break. Thank you very much, guys. | 0:53:08 | 0:53:12 | |
-Feel it? -Yeah. | 0:53:16 | 0:53:17 | |
I think with all the pressure | 0:53:22 | 0:53:24 | |
and the stress of it being the semifinals, | 0:53:24 | 0:53:28 | |
I think it just got to me. It really just got to me at that one point. | 0:53:28 | 0:53:32 | |
'I'm not ready to go home.' | 0:53:32 | 0:53:34 | |
I am really quite nervous this week, more than ever. | 0:53:35 | 0:53:38 | |
'I wasn't as strong as I set out to be. | 0:53:38 | 0:53:41 | |
'It would really upset me if this week was my last week. | 0:53:41 | 0:53:43 | |
'It means so much to me to stay' | 0:53:43 | 0:53:45 | |
and make it into the final. | 0:53:45 | 0:53:46 | |
I'd be gutted if I was going home. | 0:53:48 | 0:53:50 | |
Everyone wants to be in the final now. | 0:53:50 | 0:53:52 | |
In deciding who's going to leave us today | 0:53:52 | 0:53:55 | |
we're taking into account all three of the rounds | 0:53:55 | 0:53:58 | |
over the last two days. Who is looking not so safe? | 0:53:58 | 0:54:01 | |
So, Kobi and Marvin, they really are two, | 0:54:01 | 0:54:05 | |
that didn't give their 100% we were asking for. | 0:54:05 | 0:54:08 | |
It was just a weak round for both of them | 0:54:08 | 0:54:10 | |
and Marvin was really strong on the mohawk | 0:54:10 | 0:54:13 | |
and Kobi was quite weak on that, | 0:54:13 | 0:54:15 | |
but then on the other hand, Katie, | 0:54:15 | 0:54:16 | |
her mohican just didn't reach the criteria at all. | 0:54:16 | 0:54:20 | |
We're going into the finals now. It's really exciting | 0:54:20 | 0:54:22 | |
and you've watched everybody grow, | 0:54:22 | 0:54:24 | |
so it's going to be... going to be tough. | 0:54:24 | 0:54:27 | |
Go for it. I'll see you in a bit. Good luck. | 0:54:27 | 0:54:29 | |
We can't really judge on the taste of the hairstyle, | 0:54:31 | 0:54:34 | |
we just want to see, technically, how well it's achieved. | 0:54:34 | 0:54:37 | |
Kobi's could have walked down an aisle, | 0:54:37 | 0:54:39 | |
-into any registrar office. It could have been a bride. -Absolutely. | 0:54:39 | 0:54:42 | |
Marvin's was stylish and modern but as it walked down the aisle, | 0:54:42 | 0:54:45 | |
-it would look unfinished. -Absolutely. | 0:54:45 | 0:54:47 | |
He needs a lot more work in his finish and he hasn't delivered that. | 0:54:47 | 0:54:51 | |
Katie had the braiding, something we have to think about, | 0:54:51 | 0:54:53 | |
which they were told not to do. | 0:54:53 | 0:54:55 | |
Katie, Kobi, Marvin, Dominika... | 0:54:59 | 0:55:01 | |
..your work has been outstanding. | 0:55:03 | 0:55:06 | |
As you know, though, | 0:55:06 | 0:55:07 | |
only one of you can actually win the freestyle challenge. | 0:55:07 | 0:55:10 | |
And the judges believe that person, this week, to be... | 0:55:12 | 0:55:16 | |
..Dominika. | 0:55:23 | 0:55:25 | |
-Congratulations. -Thank you. | 0:55:25 | 0:55:26 | |
Nicely done, again. | 0:55:28 | 0:55:30 | |
Fabulous, fabulous work. You've all done fabulous work, | 0:55:30 | 0:55:33 | |
which makes this next part especially difficult | 0:55:33 | 0:55:36 | |
because we can only take three people into the grand final. | 0:55:36 | 0:55:39 | |
So with that in mind, | 0:55:39 | 0:55:41 | |
the person, unfortunately, who will be leaving us today is... | 0:55:41 | 0:55:45 | |
..Kobi. | 0:55:52 | 0:55:53 | |
-So sorry. -Well done, mate. OK? | 0:55:55 | 0:55:58 | |
'Sending Kobi home today was a really, really tough decision' | 0:55:58 | 0:56:01 | |
because he's grown in this competition unbelievably. | 0:56:01 | 0:56:06 | |
'But overall this last two days, he's been weak in all three rounds' | 0:56:06 | 0:56:11 | |
and it just, you know, people were better than him, in a sense. | 0:56:11 | 0:56:15 | |
Kobi is a really passionate 16-year-old. | 0:56:15 | 0:56:18 | |
At the end of the day, getting to the semifinal of this competition | 0:56:18 | 0:56:21 | |
is exceptional. He should win an award just for that. | 0:56:21 | 0:56:25 | |
'I actually couldn't believe it.' | 0:56:25 | 0:56:27 | |
I can't really explain how happy | 0:56:27 | 0:56:29 | |
and like, the feelings that's going on around my head now, but... | 0:56:29 | 0:56:33 | |
I am, I'm very happy and I'm very proud of myself. | 0:56:35 | 0:56:38 | |
'It is a nice feeling to get to the final, | 0:56:40 | 0:56:42 | |
'but it's kind of overshadowed by someone leaving' | 0:56:42 | 0:56:44 | |
so I think it will be more, on my way home I'll think, "Oh. I'm in the final!" | 0:56:44 | 0:56:48 | |
It feels so comforting knowing that the judges had faith in me | 0:56:48 | 0:56:52 | |
and to know that I got this far is still good, | 0:56:52 | 0:56:54 | |
so this is completely not the end for me. | 0:56:54 | 0:56:57 | |
It's just the beginning. | 0:56:58 | 0:57:00 | |
Next time on Hair... | 0:57:01 | 0:57:03 | |
This week, the victory roll. | 0:57:03 | 0:57:05 | |
I'm just going to keep it real, cos this is the final. | 0:57:05 | 0:57:07 | |
-Beautifully made. -Wonderful. -I really like it. | 0:57:07 | 0:57:09 | |
-Bring on the hair! -Oh, no... | 0:57:09 | 0:57:12 | |
The theme is Hollywood glamour. | 0:57:14 | 0:57:16 | |
I cut too much hair. | 0:57:16 | 0:57:17 | |
-Tight one, isn't it? -It's very. | 0:57:17 | 0:57:19 | |
The winner of Hair 2014 is... | 0:57:19 | 0:57:22 |
