The collection is a reflection of the exuberance of transformations, strongly rooted in modern influences of today.’
On Sunday night, Streax Professional debuted the collection in a big fashion event in Mumbai, with actress Mouni Roy as the showstopper.
Streax Professional, the professional hair care, colour, and style product range designed specifically for salon professionals and hairdressers, unveiled its latest collection, Mercurial, during a fashion event in Mumbai yesterday.
As the collection’s showstopper, actress Mouni Roy demonstrated supremacy and injected zest to the runway in her Mercurial style.
Mercurial is about moving from a colorful vivid, intense hair color with overdramatized flair, full clothing fashion with Today’s modern inspirations have been incorporated into a very subtle monochromatic classy natural hairstyle with layer upon layer of organic material.
Based on cuts, graphic lines, and blocked colours, we observe a higher influence of softer, cleaner organic shapes with less substance.
The regional folklore/ethnicity and culture influences provide a much more textured, softer pastel tones of colour and curly sensation of hair, as well as a more carefree attitude hairstyles, including ribbons in updos and stylings
The collection comprises three components:
SUPERCHARGED, a departure into the contrasts of impulsiveness, harmony, boldness, and austerity. It gives rise to a feeling of bold escapism into the extremes.
NATURAL ME, ‘Softness meets rawness’ is the principle behind the theme. Tonal-layered looks are given depth through chunky knits, while conventional brightness and lightness meet monochromatic colour, defining its classy, contemporary style.
OTHERWHERE takes you to a place of longing, the otherworld. It is about folklore, coupled with characteristics of freedom and self-determination.
“Classic can never go out of vogue, and in a modern world of trends, we as a brand enjoy customizing different styles and looks for our contemporary customers. With the Mercurial collection, we have tried to showcase three distinct head-turning styles and looks, representing the transformation from vivid, overdramatized to monochrome to folklore hairdos and prints. We are happy to present our newest collection, which promises to blend old-world charm with modern style for fashion enthusiasts.”
