Stage One: Introduction & Concept

For my Final Major Project, I aim to explore how historical events and modern day society have had an impact on the appearance of hair in some cultures, particularly those of African decent.

Stage Three: Initial Ideas.

Stage Five: Final Outcome.
Final outcomes as well as finished photographed work and a mini evaluation.
